FAQs

What does your Full System Check Plumbing & Drain Opening service in Tracy City include?

Our comprehensive visit covers three key areas: (1) a whole-home inspection of all visible supply and drain lines, valves, fixtures, and water-using appliances; (2) diagnostic testing—static pressure check, meter triangle-dial leak test, and thermal imaging if hidden moisture is suspected; and (3) complete drain opening of the primary problem line with professional augers or hydro-jetting, followed by a free camera inspection to confirm full flow. You receive a written report summarizing findings, photos/video, and any recommended repairs.

How can I tell that I need a full system check rather than just a simple clog removal?

Recurring slow drains, widespread gurgling, unexplained increases in water bills, rusty or discolored water, and low water pressure all point to systemic issues rather than a single blockage. Homes in Tracy City that still have older galvanized or cast-iron piping are especially prone to hidden corrosion and scale buildup. A full system check lets us locate root causes—such as partial main-line obstructions, vent stack blockages, or hidden leaks—so you don’t keep paying for repeated spot fixes.

How long will the visit take and will my water be shut off the whole time?

Most appointments run 1.5–3 hours. We only shut off your main valve during the 10- to 20-minute leak and pressure tests or while we replace accessible washers or supply hoses. For the majority of the inspection we keep water service active so you can stay in the house, and we stage the drain opening work to minimize disruption—typically one fixture at a time.

Are your plumbers licensed and familiar with Tracy City regulations?

Yes. Every technician holds a current Tennessee LPR (Limited Licensed Plumber) or CMC-A (full mechanical contractor) license and completes continuing-education hours on the 2021 International Plumbing Code adopted by Grundy County. We secure permits for any repair that exceeds the State’s $25,000 threshold and coordinate with the Tracy City Water Works for main-line shutoffs when required.

How is pricing determined and will there be hidden fees?

We use flat-rate menu pricing that is quoted before any work begins. The full system check and one standard drain opening have a set package price that covers labor, camera inspection, and basic augering equipment. Hydro-jetting, pipe-lining options, or fixture replacements are only performed with your written authorization. There are no travel charges within the Tracy City 37387 ZIP code or nearby communities like Coalmont and Altamont.

Can a full plumbing system check prevent future clogs and emergencies?

Absolutely. By removing existing buildup, verifying correct slope and venting, testing water pressure, and identifying small leaks early, we stop the conditions that lead to major blockages, burst pipes, and water damage. Many customers schedule the service annually—especially owners of vacation cabins on the Plateau—because catching issues before the busy summer rental season saves both money and downtime.
