Kinsey Plumbing, Heating & Air clears clogged drains and repairs drain and sewer lines in Hutto, from a slow bathroom sink to a main line that is backing up into the house. Drain problems rarely fix themselves, and the right approach depends on what is actually blocking or damaging the line.
Call us if several drains in the house are slow at the same time, water backs up into the tub when the toilet flushes, you hear gurgling from drains after running water elsewhere, sewage smells come from floor drains or the yard, a toilet clogs again soon after being cleared, water pools around a floor drain in the laundry or garage, the yard has a soggy patch near the sewer line, or store-bought drain cleaners have stopped helping.
Licensed plumbers handle every drain and sewer call, the job is quoted at a flat rate before work begins, and our warranties on the work exceed what most companies provide. Describe the backup on our contact form, or reserve a drain appointment through Schedule Now.

Clearing a drain is only half the job. Our plumber first figures out whether the clog is in a single fixture branch or the main line by checking which drains are affected and how they behave. For simple clogs, we clear the line with the right tool for the pipe size and the type of blockage. For recurring problems or main line backups, we run a camera through the line to see what is happening inside, whether that is grease buildup, roots, a sag in the pipe, a broken section, or an object lodged in the line.
Once we know the cause, you get a written flat-rate quote before any further work. A line that is simply clogged gets cleared and tested. A line that has cracked, separated, or settled is explained with camera footage, and we lay out your repair options, from a targeted section repair to a larger line replacement, with prices for each. If a cleaning will hold for now and a repair can wait, we say so plainly.
The plumber who diagnosed the problem completes the work and is the person to call if the drain gives you any trouble afterward.
Some local facts help explain drain and sewer problems here. This part of eastern Williamson County sits on Blackland Prairie clay that swells when wet and shrinks when dry, and that movement can shift underground drain and sewer lines out of alignment, creating sags or separated joints where waste collects. Much of the housing in this fast-growing area is newer subdivision construction, but even newer lines can be affected by soil movement. Grease, wipes, and hard water deposits also add to the buildup inside drain lines over time.
Our drain and sewer services include:
When drains and sewer lines are cleared and repaired correctly, water leaves sinks, tubs, and toilets quickly and quietly, backups stop, and odors go away. You can run the washer and flush the toilet without worrying about water coming up somewhere it should not. Camera footage of your line also gives you a clear picture of its condition, so future problems are less likely to catch you by surprise.
Letting a drain problem linger tends to make it worse. A partial clog in the main line can turn into a full backup that sends sewage into tubs, showers, or floor drains, which creates a health hazard and expensive cleanup. A cracked or sagging line keeps collecting debris and can leak into the soil around your foundation. Addressing the problem early often means a simpler cleaning or repair instead of a major line replacement.
After the job, your plumber explains what caused the clog or damage, shows you camera footage when we used it, and offers practical tips to keep drains flowing, such as what not to put down the kitchen sink. If ongoing maintenance or a future repair would help, we tell you honestly and let you decide. You will not be pressured into work you do not need.
A word on chemical drain openers: they can soften a minor clog, but repeated use wears on pipes and fittings and does nothing about roots, sags, or broken sections. If you find yourself reaching for the bottle every few weeks, the line has a problem that a cleaner will not solve, and that is the point where a proper inspection pays for itself.
