Here's a call we get more often than you'd think: "Every time the washing machine drains, the shower downstairs gurgles." Or, "The toilet bubbles when somebody runs the kitchen sink."

When more than one drain starts acting up at the same time, the problem usually isn't any single fixture. It's further down, in the main sewer line. And in a lot of established neighborhoods around Hendersonville and Gallatin, the culprit is tree roots. Roots go looking for water, find tiny cracks or loose joints in older clay or cast-iron pipe, and grow right in. Over time they catch toilet paper and grease and slow everything down.

The good news is nobody has to guess. A camera inspection can show exactly what's going on in the line before anybody talks about digging, and you'll get a flat-rate price upfront before we start any work. If your drains have started gurgling together, call or text 615-270-1820. Got a big old maple or oak in the front yard? Tell us below, because it might be worth keeping an eye on.

Here's something folks don't always realize: that "frost-free" outdoor spigot can still burst if you leave the garden hose hooked up to it.

A frost-free faucet works by shutting the water off way back inside the wall, where it stays warm, and letting the rest of the pipe drain out. But with a hose still screwed on, that water can't drain. It sits in the part of the pipe that's out in the cold, freezes, and splits it. The worst part is you usually don't find out until spring, when you turn it on and water starts running inside the wall or the crawlspace instead of out the spout.

So before our first hard freeze here in Sumner County, unhook every hose, drain it, and put it away. If you've got an older spigot that isn't frost-free, an inexpensive foam faucet cover helps too. Spigot already dripping or hard to shut off? Give us a call or text at 615-270-1820, and you'll get a flat-rate price upfront before we start.

Thanksgiving is about five weeks away, and I'll tell you what our phones look like that weekend: garbage disposals, all day long.

The usual suspects are potato peels, which turn into something like wallpaper paste in the drain. Then there's grease poured down "with hot water so it's fine," which cools and hardens further down the line. Add celery strings, onion skins, eggshells, and a whole lot of rice and pasta, and you've got a clogged kitchen sink right as the relatives walk in.

A few habits that help: scrape plates into the trash first, run cold water before, during, and for a little while after the disposal, and pour cooled grease into an old can instead of the sink. If your disposal is already humming without spinning or draining slow, it's better to deal with it now than on Thanksgiving morning. First time calling Mr. Rooter? We'll take 10% off your first service. Call or text 615-270-1820.

What's the worst thing you've ever seen go down a disposal? 😄

Here's something folks don't always realize: if you've got a guest bathroom or a basement shower nobody's used in a while, that funny sewer smell coming from it probably isn't a sewer problem at all.

Every drain has a little U-shaped bend under it called a P-trap. It holds a few inches of water, and that water is what blocks sewer gas from coming up into the house. When a drain goes weeks without being used, that water slowly evaporates, especially once the heat kicks on in the fall. No water, no seal, and the smell walks right in.

The fix is about as easy as it gets: run the water in that sink, tub, or shower for 30 seconds or so, and flush the toilet. Do the same for floor drains in the garage or laundry room by pouring a bucket of water down them. If the smell is still hanging around after that, there may be something else going on, like a vent problem or a bad wax ring. Give us a call or text at 615-270-1820 and you'll get a flat-rate price upfront before we start.

Got two minutes and a bottle of food coloring? Let's find out if your toilet is quietly leaking.

A worn-out flapper inside the tank can let water trickle into the bowl all day long without making a sound. You don't notice it until the water bill shows up higher than it should be. Here's the test: take the lid off the tank, put 10 or so drops of food coloring in the tank water, and don't flush. Come back in 15 to 20 minutes. If there's color in the bowl, water is leaking past the flapper.

Good news is a flapper is usually an inexpensive part and a quick swap. If the toilet keeps running, refills on its own in the middle of the night, or you'd just rather not mess with it, give us a call or text at 615-270-1820. Anybody try it? Tell us what color your bowl turned.

Myth: "A bottle of chemical drain cleaner is the easy fix for a slow drain."

Here's what we see after the fact. Those liquid cleaners work by heating up and eating through whatever's in the pipe. Sometimes that's the clog. A lot of times it just burns a little channel through the middle, the drain runs better for a week, and the rest of the gunk is still sitting there. Meanwhile that heat and chemistry is hard on older metal drain lines and the glue joints in plastic ones. And if it doesn't clear the clog, now there's a sink full of caustic water waiting for whoever has to fix it.

Better first moves: pull the stopper and clean out the hair, try a cup plunger (not the toilet one), or grab a cheap plastic drain snake from the hardware store. If it keeps coming back, the clog is probably further down the line. Give us a call or text at 615-270-1820, and you'll get a flat-rate price upfront before we start.

Myth: "If the package says flushable, it's fine to flush."

Here's what we see on the job. "Flushable" really just means it'll fit down the toilet. It doesn't mean it breaks apart the way toilet paper does. Toilet paper starts falling apart in water pretty quickly. Most wipes hang together for a long time, so they snag on rough spots in the pipe, collect grease and hair, and build into a plug, a lot of times right where the house line meets the sewer. Older clay and cast-iron lines around Hendersonville and Gallatin are especially good at catching them.

Easy test at home: put a wipe in one jar of water and a square of toilet paper in another, give them both a good shake, and see which one's still in one piece. Then keep a small trash can by the toilet. Your pipes will thank you. Anybody ever tried the jar test?

Quick question for you: if a pipe burst in your house tonight, could you get the water shut off in under two minutes?

Most folks we ask aren't sure where their main shutoff even is. In a lot of Sumner County homes it's where the water line comes into the house: the crawlspace, the garage, a utility closet near the water heater, or the front wall of the basement. Some homes only have the valve at the meter box out by the street, and that one usually takes a meter key.

Go find yours this week, before the first hard freeze. Make sure it actually turns (old gate valves love to seize up), and show everybody in the house where it is. If yours is stuck or dripping, we can swap it for a quarter-turn ball valve, and you'll get a flat-rate price upfront before we start. Call or text 615-270-1820.

Coffee grounds don’t dissolve in water. Over time, they can build up in your pipes and contribute to stubborn clogs. Instead, toss those grounds in the trash or compost and keep your drains flowing freely. 💧
