FAQs
What types of drains can your licensed technicians open in Allardt?
Our licensed plumbers are equipped to open and clear all residential and light-commercial drains in Allardt, including kitchen sinks, bathroom sinks, tubs, showers, floor drains, laundry lines, main sewer lines, and exterior French drains. We have a range of augers, hydro-jetting rigs, and camera inspection tools to match the specific pipe size and material, ensuring a safe, thorough cleanout every time.
How quickly can you respond to a drain clog in the Allardt area?
Because we are a local Allardt plumbing team, we offer same-day service for most drain emergencies. Calls received before 2 p.m. are usually handled the very same day, and we maintain 24/7 on-call technicians for severe backups that threaten flooding or health hazards. Our average arrival time for emergency service within city limits is 60–90 minutes.
Are your drain-opening services safe for older or fragile pipes?
Yes. Before we begin any mechanical or high-pressure cleaning, our licensed technician evaluates the pipe material, age, and current condition. For fragile cast iron or older clay lines, we may use low-torque cable machines, enzyme treatments, or gentler hydro-jetting pressures. When needed, we will run a video camera to verify the pipe’s integrity, ensuring the method we choose clears the clog without causing damage.
What should I do before the technician arrives to clear my clogged drain?
Turn off any water supply feeding the affected fixture to avoid overflow, and do not use chemical drain cleaners, as they can create a hazardous environment for both you and our technician. If water is standing, you can place towels around the drain to absorb minor spills, but avoid attempting to disassemble or snake the line yourself—incorrect tools or techniques could worsen the clog.
Will you provide a camera inspection after opening the drain?
A complimentary post-cleaning camera inspection is included for main sewer lines and other drains 3 inches or larger. For smaller interior drains, we offer camera service at a reduced package rate. Video inspection allows us to confirm the blockage is fully cleared and helps spot cracks, root intrusions, or bellies that might cause future backups.
Do you guarantee your drain-opening work, and what does the warranty cover?
Absolutely. We stand behind every drain we open with a 30-day clog-free guarantee for interior branch lines and a 90-day guarantee for main sewer lines, provided no foreign objects or improper use occurs. If the same line backs up within the warranty period under normal usage, we will return and clear it at no charge. We’ll also provide repair recommendations if we detect structural pipe problems that fall outside typical clog removal.
