FAQs

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

Common signs include slow draining sinks, toilets, or tubs, gurgling sounds coming from the pipes, foul odors around your home, and frequent clogs or backups. These symptoms suggest that there may be a blockage or damage in your main sewer line which could lead to more serious plumbing problems if not addressed promptly.

How can I tell if my main sewer line is blocked?

You may notice that multiple fixtures in your home, such as sinks, bathtubs, and toilets, are draining slowly or backing up. Additionally, persistent odors and visible water on your property can indicate that wastewater is not flowing properly through your main line. If you experience these issues, it's advisable to have a professional conduct a thorough inspection to accurately diagnose the problem.

What should I do if I'm experiencing frequent backups in my drains or toilets?

If you experience frequent backups, it is important to avoid using as much water as possible to prevent overflow until you can get professional help. Contact a local plumbing expert in Shelbyville immediately, as repeated backups may indicate a serious blockage or root intrusion in your main line. A qualified plumber will assess the situation using specialized tools and recommend appropriate repairs or cleaning methods.

Why is professional main line inspection important in Shelbyville?

Professional inspections are crucial because main line issues can be complex and may not be accurately diagnosed without the proper equipment. Plumbers use advanced camera systems and diagnostic tools to locate blockages, leaks, or cracks that could lead to expensive damage if left untreated. Furthermore, professionals in Shelbyville are familiar with local soil conditions and environmental factors that may affect your plumbing.

What techniques do plumbers use to diagnose main line issues?

Plumbers use a variety of advanced techniques including video camera inspections, which allow them to see inside the pipes without invasive procedures. They might also use hydro jetting to clear blockages and advanced diagnostic tools like sewer line locators to pinpoint the exact problem area. These techniques ensure an accurate diagnosis and help in planning the most effective repair or maintenance strategy.

How can I prevent future main line plumbing issues in my Shelbyville home or business?

Regular maintenance is key to preventing future issues. This includes scheduling periodic inspections and cleanings, being mindful of what you flush or pour down the drains, and addressing minor issues before they become major problems. Consider having a professional inspect the line annually and take proactive measures such as tree root management and proper disposal of grease and solids to keep your main line in optimal condition.

What our customers say

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.

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.

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.

Had to have our main-line cleaned. Took around 30 minutes. Wonderful and fast service! Would highly recommend to anyone! Our technician Aaron Tatum, great guy! He gave us all the information that we would need for the future about our septic system and it's maintenance. You will not be over-loaded with unnecessary jobs or fees. I am more than pleased with my service today and will be using them again of any other issues arise.

I had a large leak in my water pipe at the meter. HEP was able to come the afternoon I called and Tim the technician stayed late to fix the problem so I would not have to go without water service overnight.
