FAQs
How quickly can you arrive to clear a clogged drain in Elizabethton?
Because our technicians are based right here in Carter County, we’re usually at your door within 60 to 90 minutes of your call—often sooner for true emergencies. Our trucks are already stocked with cables, hydro-jetters, cameras, and replacement parts, so we can diagnose and clear the blockage on the very first visit without waiting for supplies.
What types of drains do you service?
We clear every drain in and around your property, including kitchen sinks, bathroom sinks, tubs, showers, floor drains, laundry lines, main sewer laterals, downspout drains, and even French-drain systems. Whether you own a historic downtown home, a new construction in Hunter, or a commercial space on Broad Street, we have the right equipment to handle the job.
What methods do you use to remove tough blockages?
Our primary tools are professional-grade drain augers and hydro-jetting machines that blast water at up to 4,000 PSI to scour away grease, roots, and mineral scale. For stubborn or recurring clogs, we run a high-definition sewer camera to pinpoint the obstruction and verify the pipe’s condition. When tree roots or collapsed sections are found, we can perform trenchless spot repairs or recommend full line replacement if needed.
Are your drain clearing techniques safe for older pipes and septic systems?
Yes. Before we begin, we determine the pipe material—cast iron, clay, PVC, or Orangeburg—and select a cleaning method that won’t damage it. For fragile, decades-old lines we dial back jetting pressure and use flex-shaft cutters that gently shave roots without scraping the pipe wall. All products we flush are 100% biodegradable and septic-safe, so they won’t upset the bacterial balance in your tank.
What signs mean I should call a professional instead of trying a store-bought drain cleaner?
If you notice gurgling toilets, multiple fixtures backing up at once, water bubbling from a floor drain, foul sewer odors, or a slow drain that returns after DIY attempts, call us. Chemical cleaners can corrode pipes and rarely reach deep blockages, while repeated plunging can loosen joints. Professional cleaning not only restores flow quickly but also uncovers underlying issues such as root intrusion or pipe sagging before they turn into costly repairs.
Do you guarantee your drain clearing work?
Absolutely. Every residential drain we clear comes with a 30-day clog-free guarantee, and main sewer line cleanings carry a 6-month limited warranty if we camera-inspect the pipe. If the same line backs up during the warranty period, we’ll return and re-snake or jet it at no charge. We also provide a full written estimate and explain any long-term solutions before performing additional work, so there are never surprises on your bill.
