FAQs
What are the most common signs that my Loudon home has a main water or sewer line problem?
Watch for sudden drops in water pressure, gurgling drains throughout the house, multiple fixtures backing up at once, unexplained wet or sunken spots in the yard, and unusually high water bills. Any of these symptoms can indicate a cracked, obstructed, or collapsed main line and should be inspected promptly.
How urgent is it to fix a suspected main line issue?
Very urgent. A damaged water or sewer main can quickly lead to flooding, foundation damage, mold growth, and health hazards from wastewater. Addressing the problem right away limits property damage, lowers repair costs, and keeps your home in compliance with Loudon County health regulations.
What typically causes main line blockages or breaks in Loudon?
The most frequent culprits are tree-root intrusion (especially from mature oaks and maples common in Loudon), grease or debris buildup, aging cast-iron or clay pipes that corrode or crack, and ground movement from freeze–thaw cycles. Heavy rains can also wash soil away and stress the pipe, leading to fractures.
What repair methods does Reliable Solutions Plumbing use, and will my yard be torn up?
We start with a video camera inspection to locate the problem. Minor clogs are cleared with hydro-jetting. For damaged pipes, we offer trenchless options such as pipe lining and pipe bursting that require only small access holes and leave most landscaping intact. If soil conditions or pipe layout require an open-trench repair, we restore lawns, driveways, and sidewalks to their original condition before finishing the job.
Do I need permits or inspections for main line work in Loudon?
Yes. Loudon County Building & Codes Enforcement requires permits and inspections for any main line replacement or major repair. We handle all paperwork, coordinate with Tennessee 811 to mark underground utilities, and schedule final inspections to ensure your new line meets state and local plumbing codes.
How much do main line repairs cost and what kind of warranty do you offer?
Costs vary depending on pipe depth, length, and repair method. Simple hydro-jetting jobs can start around $300–$500, while trenchless replacements typically range from $2,500–$5,000. We provide a free on-site assessment and a fixed upfront quote. All workmanship is covered by a 12-month warranty, and lining materials carry manufacturer warranties up to 50 years. Financing and maintenance plans are available to help manage larger projects.
