FAQs

What are the common signs of a main line plumbing issue?

Common signs include slow drainage in multiple fixtures, frequent backups, unpleasant sewer odors, and gurgling sounds in your pipes. Additionally, you might notice water pooling around your foundation or issues with outdoor drains, which can indicate a problem with the main line.

What causes main line blockages or damage?

Main line issues are often caused by a buildup of debris, grease, and hair, which can result in stubborn clogs. Other causes include tree root intrusion, pipe corrosion, shifting soil, and even damage from harsh weather conditions. Regular inspections help pinpoint the underlying issue.

How can I prevent tree roots from damaging my main line?

Prevention involves regular maintenance and inspections, as trees in Old Fort can invade underground pipes. Professional plumbers often use camera inspections to detect early root intrusions and suggest treatments such as chemical root inhibitors or physical barriers to discourage tree roots from entering the pipe.

How frequently should I have my main line inspected?

It is generally recommended to have your main line inspected every 1-2 years, especially if your area is prone to tree root issues or if your home is older. Regular inspections can help detect small problems before they evolve into costly repairs.

What repair options are available if a main line issue is found?

Depending on the extent of the damage, repair options include simple clogs removal, pipe relining, trenchless pipe bursting, or complete line replacement. A professional assessment will determine the most effective and least invasive method for your particular situation.

How can professional plumbing services assist with main line issues in Old Fort?

Professional plumbers bring advanced diagnostic tools like video inspection cameras to accurately locate and diagnose problems in your main line. They offer effective solutions ranging from preventive maintenance and routine cleaning to advanced repair methods. Their expertise ensures that repairs are done correctly, protecting your home from future issues and potentially saving you from costly long-term damage.

What our customers say

Beyond satisfied with this company. I recently had a water main break to my house. They were out within a couple of hours and laid a temp line to get the water back on. Within two days the line was buried underground. Very happy with the professionalism of the bury crew.

Alex Sherwood and Joseph carpenter came out to do some sewer repair lines and they were quick to get the job done and listened to all of our concerns. They were very nice! I’d highly recommend this team to others

Bryan R.

Aaron Tatum (way better looking than Channing Tatum) came out and took a look at a water pipe I damaged in the yard. He was thorough and professional and got here quickly after I called. He explained all of my options to me and was upfront and honest. Very personable. I highly recommend HEP and love dealing with their people.

Aaron Tatum was awesome! Unclogged my main sewer line & got me financed to get it repaired. He’s super friendly and pleasant to interact with. He was even early. Thanks Aaron & HEP

Kim C.

We are very pleased with this company. They are very professional, on time and friendly. The problem started with a clogged downstairs toilet. After several attempts on our own using snakes and drain opener we called a local plumber. He arrived several hours later and after 4 hours of doing the same thing we did he could not get it unclogged. Said he would be back the next day but he no showed and didn't call. That happened twice. Then I called Hep. They arrived in a few hours and diagnosed the problem (main sewer line going to septic crushed) within 10 mins of arriving. The came the next day and fixed. Even though it was a pretty hard job (the crushed part was under the paved driveway) they did a great job of cleaning up. He kept apologizing about the mess but we were just happy to have working toilets again after 5 days. I will always call Hep for any plumbing needs.

Thank you to Adam for his service and coming out and finding our water leak that was coming from under our house! He definitely saved us from it being worse!

We found out we had a water leak somewhere in our building so we called HEP to help. Came out the next day and did a full work up and helped us determine what our next steps were. Amanda was amazing!

Jonathan came out to address a serious leak at a property we rented for vacation. First and foremost he was on time! He was very kind, very knowledgeable and was able to identify the issue quickly. I would highly recommend this company and especially Jonathan!

Rueben did an excellent job diagnosing and correcting a difficult water leak. After several other plumbers had attempted to find the source without success, Rueben found it and fixed it in a matter of minutes.
