FAQs
What signs tell me I need a professional drain-opening service in Soddy-Daisy?
Persistent standing water in sinks or tubs, gurgling noises, foul sewer odors, repeated clogs in the same fixture, or water backing up in floor drains all indicate a blockage deep in the line. If household plunging or store-bought chemicals don’t restore normal flow, it’s time to call our licensed plumbers before the clog grows and risks pipe damage or a sewage backup.
What drain-clearing methods do your Soddy-Daisy plumbers use?
After a visual inspection—and, if needed, a video camera inspection—we choose the safest and most effective option. For routine clogs we use professional-grade drain augers (electric snakes) to physically break up or retrieve debris. For heavy grease, sludge, or invasive roots we deploy high-pressure hydro-jetting, which scrubs pipe walls 360° with water up to 4,000 psi. In older or fragile lines we may use enzyme treatments or hand rodding to avoid stressing the pipe.
Are your technicians fully licensed and insured in Tennessee?
Yes. Every plumber who arrives at your door carries a current State of Tennessee mechanical contractor’s license with a plumbing classification, as well as city of Soddy-Daisy permits when required. We maintain $2 million in general liability coverage and full workers’ compensation, so you’re protected from liability while we work on your property.
How much does professional drain opening cost?
Most residential clogs in Soddy-Daisy fall between $125 and $275, depending on the fixture, drain length, and severity of the blockage. Complex main-line stoppages that require hydro-jetting or camera diagnostics can range from $300 to $600. We always provide a written, no-obligation quote after diagnosis, and there are no trip fees inside Soddy-Daisy city limits.
Do you offer 24/7 emergency drain unclogging and how fast can you get here?
Absolutely. Our emergency line is staffed around the clock, including weekends and holidays. Because our shop is less than 10 minutes from downtown Soddy-Daisy, a licensed plumber can usually be on site within 60–90 minutes of your call. The service trucks are fully stocked, so in most cases we clear the line on the first visit.
What can I do to prevent clogs after you clear my drains?
Avoid putting grease, coffee grounds, fibrous foods, or flushable wipes down the drain. Install mesh strainers in showers and sinks to catch hair and debris. Run hot water for 30 seconds after each use of the garbage disposal. Once a month, flush kitchen and bathroom drains with a pot of hot (not boiling) water, followed by a cup of baking soda and white vinegar. For homes with large families or older plumbing, we recommend an annual professional camera inspection and preventive hydro-jetting to keep the main line clear.
