Drain Cleaning In Franklin, TN
Slow drains, standing water, or a line that backs up every few months? We clear kitchen, bath, laundry and main sewer lines for Franklin homeowners — camera first on the main, flat rate before we start.
Drains That Actually Drain Again
A drain almost never blocks overnight. It gets slower over weeks, then one evening the sink holds water and the problem finally gets your attention. By then the blockage has usually been building for a while — which is good news, because it means it can be cleared properly rather than just poked at.
We clear every line in a Franklin home: kitchen, bath and shower, laundry, floor drains, and the main sewer line out to the street. When the main is involved we run a camera before touching it, because a clog and a cracked pipe feel identical from inside the house.
- Kitchen lines cabled clear of grease and food buildup
- Bath, shower and laundry drains cleared at the trap
- Main sewer lines cameraed, then cabled or hydro-jetted
- Flat-rate quote before any equipment comes off the truck
- Full-flow test before we leave, so you see it working
Three Kinds Of Drain Problem
Almost every call we take in Franklin is one of these three. Jump to whichever sounds like your house.
One Slow Drain
A single sink, tub or shower draining slowly. Usually a simple clog in the trap or branch line.

Two or more fixtures backing up together, or gurgling when the washer empties. Points at the main.
See what we clearIt Keeps Coming Back
Same line clogging every few months. Time for a camera and a decision about jetting or repair.

The Drain Lines We Clear Most In Franklin
Every line clogs for a different reason, and each one needs a different tool.
| Line | What we do | Why it matters in Franklin homes |
|---|---|---|
| Kitchen line | Cable the line and cut through grease and food buildup | Grease is the number one kitchen clog we pull out of older Franklin homes |
| Bath & shower drains | Pull the stopper, clear hair and soap scum, then flush the trap | Restores full flow without pouring chemicals into the pipe |
| Main sewer line | Camera the line first, then auger or hydro-jet based on what we see | Tells us whether it is a clog or a broken line before you pay for the wrong fix |
| Floor & laundry drains | Clear the trap and confirm the line carries a full washer discharge | A slow laundry drain floods a finished basement fast |

View allCabling Or Hydro-Jetting: We'll Help You Choose
Both clear a line. Which one you need depends on what is sitting in the pipe and how old that pipe is — and on an older Franklin house, that second part matters.
| Cabling | Hydro-jetting | |
|---|---|---|
| Cost | Lower | Higher |
| Best for | Hair, soft blockages, one slow fixture | Grease, sludge, scale, repeat main-line clogs |
| What it does | Punches through the clog and pulls it back out | Scours the pipe wall back to full diameter |
| Older pipe | Safe on most cast iron and PVC | We camera first, since jetting needs sound pipe |

Real Local Details For Franklin, TN
Specifics our drain crews know about Franklin — not generic filler. Serving ZIP codes 37064, 37067, 37069 and 37027.
Historic Franklin & Downtown
Homes near Downtown Franklin and the Historic District often still have their original cast iron or clay drain lines. We run a camera before cabling here, because heavy scale and root intrusion look identical from the kitchen sink — and clay joints are exactly where roots get in.
Westhaven & Berry Farms
These homes have long horizontal runs from upstairs baths and bonus rooms down to the main. Clogs out here usually show up as a slow upstairs tub or shower well before anything backs up on the first floor, which is why we start upstairs rather than at the nearest cleanout.
Cool Springs Corridor
Cool Springs townhomes often share a drain stack between units, so the clog is frequently not where the water is showing up. We trace the full run instead of snaking the closest access point and calling it done.
