FAQs

What are the common signs of a main line issue?

Common signs of a main line issue include slow draining throughout the house, gurgling sounds from plumbing fixtures, sewage odors, frequent backups, and water pooling around the basement floor drain or yard.

How does a professional diagnose a main line problem?

A professional typically starts with a visual inspection and may use a sewer camera to look inside the pipes for blockages, debris, or damage. A plumber might also perform a hydrostatic pressure test to check for leaks.

What could cause a main line blockage?

Main line blockages are often caused by tree root intrusion, buildup of grease and debris, collapsed pipes, or foreign objects flushed down the drains. Older pipes can also deteriorate and cause blockages.

What steps are involved in fixing a main line issue?

The steps typically involve diagnosing the problem using a camera inspection, clearing the blockage with a professional-grade auger or hydro-jetting, and repairing or replacing damaged sections of the pipe. Preventive maintenance may also be recommended to avoid future problems.

Can I prevent main line issues from occurring?

Yes, you can prevent main line issues by avoiding flushing non-degradable items, using drain guards to catch hair and debris, regularly scheduling professional inspections, and addressing minor issues promptly. Reducing tree growth near sewer lines can also help.

How much can I expect to pay for main line repair or replacement?

The cost of main line repair or replacement can vary widely depending on the extent of the problem, the materials used, and labor costs. On average, repairs can range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars. It’s recommended to get a detailed estimate from a professional plumber.

What our customers say

It was Saturday evening and a fountain of raw sewage began coming out of our downstairs bathroom! It went everywhere! We turned off all the water and called HEP. Albert Phillips did not hesitate to say he would be here as soon as possible. He worked again Sunday and with his expert knowledge and understanding of plumbing, he addressed the problem. Albert Phillips was very professional, skilled, polite, and respectful. We highly recommend Mr. Phillips and HEP for plumbing!

Juston was the technician showed up at my home today to repair a sewer back up issue. Juston showed up in a timely manner and was very professional with what was done and how it was explained to me what he was going to do. After all said and done Juston spent about two hours taking care of a clog in the sewer line. He explained to me what he was doing with every step and showed me with a camera what exactly was happening. If I need any plumbing in the future I will definitely be calling HEP! Thanks Juston for a wonderful job!!

Tim, one of the HEP service attendants, came out to survey our corroded pipes and assess the cost to repair a leak in our laundry room ceiling and upstairs bathroom sink. He was fantastic and one of the best customer service reps that I have ever encountered. He was calm, friendly, patient, knowledgeable, and super professional when it came to explaining every detail of our issue. He made me feel comfortable and confident in his company. We just need to work out financing details, but I’m pretty sure that we’ll go with HEP because of Tim. He is a wonderful representative for the company and in my opinion, he deserves accolades and a raise! He’s really great at his job and deserves all the recognition that he can get. Tim is an AWESOME employee and person and an invaluable asset to HEP!

Our Technician Robbie was great! He was extremely professional and worked very quickly to repair our septic tank. He had runners picking up the pump while he worked on other parts so the job could be finished as quick as possible.

Chuck was very informative took care of my main issue while taking the time to listen to my concerns, and while here found a secondary more pressing issue (that me and my wife had suspected but not mentioned as part of our initial request) and repaired it also.

Called Hep for sewer not draining. Robbie called to tell us he was on his way. Robbie was professional and explained the best repair. We are 100%satisfied with the work Robbie performed. Zack and Colin called to tell us they were on the way. Both guys were very professional and explained all work they were doing. When they were done we could barely tell they had a good sized hole in the yard. We 100% recommend them.

Came out the day we called, brought a digger out that night, dug in the dark and some light rain. Got our septic dug and opened up, clog removed, and new bigger access pipe installed all in about 2 hours. Can't say anything bad about their service. Robbie, Dwayne, and Joe were great.
