FAQs
What types of drains can your licensed Benton technicians open or clear?
Our team can service every common residential and light-commercial drain in the Benton area, including kitchen sinks, bathroom sinks, tubs, showers, floor drains, laundry drains, toilet lines, main sewer laterals, and exterior French drains or yard drains. Whether the clog is caused by grease, hair, soap scum, tree roots, or foreign objects, we have the right tools and training to remove it safely.
Are your drain-opening technicians fully licensed and insured?
Yes. All of our plumbers hold current Arkansas state plumbing licenses, carry up-to-date liability and workers’ compensation insurance, and regularly complete continuing-education courses on the latest drain-cleaning technologies and safety protocols. You can feel confident that the work will meet local Benton plumbing codes and be backed by our company warranty.
How fast can you respond to a drain emergency in Benton?
Because we are a local Benton-based crew, we offer true same-day service. For emergency backups that threaten flooding or loss of service, we aim to arrive within 60–90 minutes of your call, 24/7. Our dispatch system tracks the closest available technician, so you won’t be waiting on someone coming from another city.
What methods do you use to clear tough or recurring clogs?
We start with a professional drain auger or sewer machine to break up and extract blockages. For heavy root intrusions, we use sectional cutters or chain knockers. When buildup coats the pipe walls, we recommend hydro-jetting, which scours the entire line with high-pressure water. If we suspect a structural issue, we perform a video camera inspection to pinpoint cracks or bellies before recommending repair options.
How much does a professional drain opening typically cost?
For a straightforward interior drain, prices in Benton usually range from $95 to $175. Main sewer line clearings average $225–$350, depending on the clean-out’s accessibility and clog severity. We always provide a written, flat-rate quote before we begin, so there are no surprises. Discounts are available for seniors, military members, and multi-drain packages.
What can I do after the service to prevent future clogs?
We recommend using drain strainers to catch hair and food particles, avoiding pouring grease or coffee grounds down the sink, and flushing only toilet paper—not wipes or hygiene products. Once a month, flush each drain with hot water followed by a cup of baking soda and white vinegar. For homes with frequent tree-root intrusions, scheduling an annual camera inspection and preventative jetting will help keep the line clear.
