FAQs
What types of drains can Proven Techniques Plumbing unclog in Ducktown?
Our team can clear virtually any residential or light-commercial drain in Ducktown, including kitchen sinks, bathroom sinks, tubs, showers, floor drains, laundry drains, and main sewer lines. We use specialized equipment for each drain type to ensure a thorough, damage-free cleaning.
How quickly can you respond to an emergency drain blockage?
For Ducktown residents we offer 24/7 emergency service. In most cases a licensed technician arrives within 60–90 minutes of your call, fully equipped to diagnose and clear the obstruction during the same visit.
What methods do you use to open stubborn or recurring clogs?
Depending on the clog’s location and severity we may employ high-speed cable machines, hydro-jetting, enzyme or bio-friendly cleaners, and in-line video inspection. Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water to scour pipe walls and remove grease, roots, and scale, while camera inspections confirm the line is completely clear and identify any pipe damage.
Is hydro-jetting safe for older or PVC pipes?
Yes. Our technicians adjust pressure settings based on pipe material and condition. We inspect first with a camera when necessary to verify structural integrity, then use the lowest effective PSI to protect fragile clay, cast iron, or PVC lines while still delivering a deep clean.
Will you need to dig up my yard or cut into walls to clear the drain?
In most cases, no. Our advanced drain-clearing tools work through existing clean-outs or fixture openings. If camera inspection reveals a collapsed pipe or severe root intrusion, we discuss trenchless repair options such as pipe lining before considering excavation.
How can I prevent future drain clogs after your service?
We recommend disposing of grease, coffee grounds, and fibrous foods in the trash, using hair catchers in showers, flushing only toilet paper, and scheduling an annual preventive drain cleaning—especially if your property has mature trees. We also offer enzyme drain care products that keep pipes clear without harsh chemicals.
