Drain Opening

Expert Drain Opening Services in Tennessee

Clogged drains are a common plumbing headache for homeowners and businesses alike. Grease, hair, soap scum, tree roots, and foreign objects can all build up in pipes, slowing water flow and eventually causing complete blockages. HEP’s professional drain opening service is designed to eliminate clogs quickly and restore full drainage functionality, preventing damage and inconvenience across Tennessee.

Understanding Drain Blockages

• Food waste and grease in kitchen sinks
• Hair and soap scum in bathroom drains
• Mineral buildup in older galvanized pipes
• Intruding tree roots in underground sewer lines
• Foreign objects accidentally flushed or dropped

Recognizing these culprits early makes it easier to understand why a professional drain opening is often the safest, most effective solution.

• Foul odors wafting through the home
