Hendersonville drain cleaning can be a preventative form of maintenance or a solution to a drain clog. Drain clogs can happen in any part of your home's plumbing system, but normally, they occur not too far down in the pipes connected to your sinks and showers. There are many reasons why clogged drains happen, and not all of them are preventable. Take tree roots, for example. Due to this fact, we must start every service with a thorough inspection of your pipes. We'll go into more detail about what you can expect during our drain cleaning services below.
Video Camera Inspection
Drain clogs are incredibly common in homes across Hendersonville–and the entire U.S., for that matter. With so many different possibilities as to the problem behind the clog, we must figure out what's going on inside your drains so that we know how to resolve it. On top of that, plumbing systems vary in terms of their condition.
The way we handle drain cleaning is by using a very strong blast of water called hydro jetting. But not every pipe can handle that amount of water pressure. If we spot any kind of damage during our inspection (depending on the severity), we recommend that you forego the cleaning and get your pipes replaced. If the damage is small, we'll go ahead and clean your pipes but will still recommend a trenchless form of plumbing repair, such as pipe relining or pipe bursting.
How does video camera inspection work? We insert a camera on a long wire down the length of your drain line. This camera records everything it sees 360 degrees around. When we view the footage, we can see exactly where the clog is in your drain line, if there is any damage, what type it is, and where that damage is located. Armed with that information, we can better address the issue.
HydroScrub® Jetting
In the case that your plumbing system is in great shape, we'll go ahead with HydroScrub® Jetting. This effective solution involves inserting a hose far down into your drain line and blasting it clean with a strong stream of water. The blast will push through any clogs and polish the inside of your pipes until they are squeaky clean. This will give you a completely clean slate and remove all types of buildup.
What makes hydro jetting such an effective solution? Unlike drain snaking, it will remove all types of clogs and buildup, including soft deposits such as oil, fat, and grease. While these soft substances may not seem like much of an issue, they build up over time and can eventually form a solid clog in your pipes–or worse, cause your pipe to crack.
Enzymatic Drain Care Treatment
If you would like to take your drain care to the next level, we suggest coupling HydroScrub® Jetting with our enzymatic drain care treatment. Helping to prevent the buildup of fats, grease, oil, food, minerals, and soap scum, this lasting solution coats your pipes and will help dissolve these substances for several months. Unlike chemical drain cleaners, enzymatic drain cleaners are eco-friendly, kind to your pipes, cost-effective, non-toxic, and safe for your septic system!

Hendersonville Drain Cleaning FAQs
What Happens If I Don't Clean My Drains?
Stop and think for a minute about what goes down your drains each day. From waste and hair to food particles and soap scum, it's relatively easy to get a clog. Clogs are the number one issue that will occur if you don't clean your drains, but they're just the beginning of your troubles. With clogs can come issues such as bacterial growth and foul odors, which will make your bathroom, kitchen, or basement a disgusting place to be. What's more, these small issues pale in comparison to the larger ones that can come after them, including pipe damage such as cracks and pipe bursts, as well as the ever-dreaded sewer backup.
Homeowners who do not seek professional drain cleaning services and instead opt for chemical drain cleaners or quick-fix tools will never fully resolve their pipe blockage. The more food scraps, grease, and foreign matter that accumulate in your drain, the more stress is put on your pipes. The simple act of drain cleaning will remove it all.
What Are The Signs I Need Drain Cleaning in Hendersonville, TN?
While you may be seeking our Hendersonville drain cleaning service because you have a clog, if you're on the fence whether or not to get your drains cleaned, keep an eye out for the following signs:
- Bad smells
- Drain flies
- Slow drains
- Sewer backup
- Unusual sounds (gurgling, bubbling, etc.)
If you have any of the above, it's a good idea to seek professional drain cleaning plumbers right away. Taking care of your issue now may mean that you avoid costly drain repairs in the future. It may also prevent sewer backup, a disaster that can potentially ruin your floors, carpets, furniture, and more–not to mention fill your home with the disgusting smell and sight of raw sewage.
What Causes Clogged Drains?
We've touched on a few elements that can cause your drains to clog, but it's important to understand everything that can lead to the event to prevent it from happening. While not every one of these factors is under your control, the majority of them are. Across all of the plumbing systems we have inspected, the most common culprits of drain blockages include:
- Feminine hygiene products
- Grease, oil, and fats
- Food items
- Soap scum
- Hair
- Foreign objects
- Cotton swabs and cotton balls
- "Flushable" wipes or baby wipes
- Too much toilet paper
- Tree roots
Can I Clean My Own Drains?
It's possible to clean your own drains, but it's not possible to clean your drains as effectively as a professional plumber. Certain chemical drain cleaners aren't a good idea for your pipes as one of the common chemicals they contain can corrode cast iron and galvanized steel pipes. Using an at-home drain snake or drain auger may be able to clear certain types of clogs, but they do not clean your drains. With that said, there are some types of preventative maintenance you can do to keep your drains clear between professional drain cleaning services.
- Take care not to flush anything but wastewater and toilet paper
- Use a drain catcher to catch hair and soap particles in your shower and bathtub
- Do not put grease, oil, or any kind of fat down your sinks
- Only place approved items down your garbage disposal
- Get your grease trap cleaned often
- Never use chemical drain cleaners
When Should I Call an Emergency Plumber?
It can be difficult to tell when your plumbing problem is an emergency and when it's a less pressing issue. While clogs can seem serious, they don't become an emergency until they prevent you from using your plumbing. If a clog doesn't clear on its own and causes water to flow onto your floor, you should call a plumber right away to prevent water damage. If a clog clears slowly, it's not an emergency but still should be resolved relatively soon.
If you're not sure if your issue is an emergency, give our qualified team a call. Doing so may help you avoid sewer backup and serious leaks. We offer emergency services for this very reason and, if needed, will arrive at your home promptly to stop the incoming flow of water.
