🔍 Frequently Asked Questions

How Do I Know If It’s a Clogged Drain or a Sewer Line Problem?

There are a few warning signs — If only one fixture (like a sink, tub, or toilet) is slow-draining or backing up, the problem is usually isolated to that specific drain line. In most cases, professional drain cleaning can quickly resolve the issue. However, if you notice multiple drains backing up at the same time, gurgling sounds from toilets or sinks, water backing up in a tub when you flush the toilet, or strong sewer odors inside or outside your home, this may indicate a main sewer line blockage. Sewer line problems require immediate attention to prevent sewage damage and costly repairs.

At Your Hometown Plumber, we provide professional Sewer Camera Inspections in Asheville, Hendersonville, Brevard, Tryon, Forest City, and surrounding Western NC areas. A camera inspection allows us to accurately determine whether the issue is caused by grease buildup, tree root intrusion, a collapsed pipe, sagging pipes, misaligned pipes, or improper bedding, which causes water to stand in the pipes — so we can quickly recommend the right solution.

If your home uses a septic tank and it has been 3–5 years or longer since your last pumping, we strongly recommend having the septic tank pumped first. A full septic tank can mimic the symptoms of a sewer line blockage, including slow drains and backups. Pumping the tank may resolve the issue without the need for additional sewer repairs.

*Your Hometown Plumber does not offer Septic Pumping Services.

Yes! We provide emergency drain cleaning and sewer repair services in Asheville, NC and surrounding areas, including Hendersonville, Tryon, Brevard, and Forest City. If you’re experiencing a sewer backup, clogged drain, or burst pipe, we offer fast response times and often have same-day availability.

What causes drains to clog — and Can I Use Store-Bought Drain Cleaners?

Clogged drains are one of the most common plumbing problems homeowners face. Understanding what causes drain blockages can help you prevent costly sewer repairs and emergency plumbing calls. Here’s a breakdown of some of the most common culprits:

  • Grease, Fats, Oils, and Food Buildup in Kitchen Sinks.
    Pouring grease or cooking oils down the drain can cause them to harden inside your pipes. Over time, this buildup restricts water flow.

  • Hair and Soap Scum in Showers, Bathtubs and Bathroom Sinks.
    Hair binds with soap residue to form thick clogs that trap debris and restrict drainage.

  • Flushable Wipes and Paper Towels in Toilets
    Even products labeled “flushable” do not break down like toilet paper. These materials are a leading cause of toilet clogs and main sewer line blockages.

  • Accidentally flushing foreign objects
    Toys, hygiene products, washcloths, etc.
  • Tree Root Intrusion
    Tree roots commonly grow into underground sewer pipes in search of moisture. Root intrusion can crack pipes and cause recurring sewer backups.

    Store-Bought Drain Cleaners 
    Many homeowners ask whether these products (such as Drano, Liquid-Plumr, Green Gobbler, Zep) are safe for clearing clogged drains. In short, we generally do not recommend using them—while chemical drain cleaners may provide temporary relief, they also come with risks.

    • They can corrode older pipes, especially in aging homes

    • They may weaken PVC solvent welds over time

    • They often push clogs deeper into the system

    • They may not remove the full buildup that’s causing the blockage

    Professional Drain Cleaning safely removes buildup without harming your plumbing system.

How often should I have my drains or sewer line cleaned?

For most homes, we recommend Professional Drain Cleaning as a preventive measure every few years if you cook with a lot of grease. This helps prevent major clogs and sewer backups. Homes with large families or older pipes may benefit from more frequent servicing.

How much does it cost to clean or repair a drain or sewer line?

The cost depends on the severity of the damage, the location of the pipe, and the repair method required. We provide free estimates and upfront pricing before beginning any work.

Is A Sewer Backup Considered An Emergency?

Yes. A sewer backup is a plumbing emergency and should be addressed immediately to prevent health hazards and property damage.
