FAQs

What are the common signs of a clogged drain?

Common signs of a clogged drain include slow draining water, water backing up, unpleasant odors, gurgling noises from pipes, and frequent need for plunging. If you notice any of these issues, it may be time to address a potential clog.

What causes drains to become clogged?

Drains can become clogged due to a variety of reasons including accumulation of hair, soap, grease, food particles, and foreign objects. Over time, these substances can build up and restrict water flow. Tree roots can also invade sewer lines and cause severe blockages.

Can I use chemical drain cleaners to unclog my drain?

While chemical drain cleaners may provide a temporary fix, they can be harmful to your pipes and the environment. These chemicals can cause corrosion and damage to both metal and PVC pipes. It's often better to use mechanical means, such as a plunger or plumber’s snake, or to call a professional for safe and effective drain cleaning.

How do professionals open clogged drains?

Professionals use a variety of methods to open clogged drains including plumbing snakes (augers), hydro-jetting, and camera inspections. A plumbing snake is used for clearing minor clogs, while hydro-jetting involves high-pressure water to remove stubborn blockages and clean the pipes thoroughly. A camera inspection helps to accurately diagnose the cause and location of the clog.

How can I prevent my drains from clogging?

Preventing drain clogs involves regular maintenance and mindful use. Avoid pouring grease, oil, and coffee grounds down the drain. Use drain screens to catch hair and food particles, and avoid flushing non-degradable items down toilets. Regularly clean your drains with a mixture of baking soda and vinegar followed by hot water to help remove buildup.

When should I call a professional plumber for a clogged drain?

You should call a professional plumber if your attempts to unclog the drain with a plunger or a plumber’s snake are unsuccessful, if you notice multiple drains backing up, or if there is a persistent foul odor. Additionally, if you experience frequent clogs, this may indicate a larger underlying issue that requires professional attention.

I had a great team of people from HEP. Starting with Josh who assessed the situation to Jordon and Cody who ultimately cleaned out my tank and fixed the PVC part that had come undone. They were polite, professional and we actually had a lot of laughs as well. My family is due in two weeks and to have had them come under these circumstances would have been my worst nightmare. BUT everything is fixed and working great. I would recommend this company to anyone needing any plumbing job or their septic tank emptied. A great group of workers! I actually learned a lot during the process as I was asking a lot of questions. Both Josh and Jordon were very patient with me. The company was very professional sending me updates of when drivers would come with links to their actual location. Invoices were sent promptly and communication was perfect.
