Kinsey Plumbing, Heating & Air clears clogged drains and repairs damaged drain and sewer lines in Lakeway homes, getting wastewater moving out of the house the way it should. A backed-up drain is unpleasant at best and unsanitary at worst, and the right fix depends on knowing exactly what is in the line and where.
Call us if a sink, tub, or shower drains slower every week, more than one fixture backs up at the same time, you hear gurgling from a drain when the toilet flushes or the washer empties, sewage odors rise from floor drains or appear in the yard, water comes up in the tub when another fixture is used, a toilet clogs again soon after being plunged, you see soggy or unusually green patches over the sewer line outside, or store-bought drain cleaners have stopped doing anything.

A clog in one sink is usually local. When several fixtures act up together, the problem is further down the line, in the main drain or sewer. Our plumber starts by working out which fixtures are affected and how, then clears the blockage with the right equipment for the line, from a cable machine for buildup and roots to water jetting for grease and scale. When a line keeps clogging or we suspect damage, a camera inspection shows exactly what is inside, whether that is a sagging section, a cracked pipe, roots, or a joint that has separated.
With that information, you get a written flat-rate quote. Many drains only need a thorough cleaning. If the camera shows a broken or collapsed section, we explain your repair options, from fixing a single spot to replacing a longer run of pipe, and lay out the cost and expected life of each. You choose the approach, and we never recommend digging or replacement when a cleaning will truly solve the problem.
Local facts are part of the picture. Many homes in this area are larger houses built from the 1980s through the 2000s, so drain and sewer lines may have decades of buildup or age-related wear. Hard water in Central Texas leaves mineral scale inside pipes that catches debris. Homes on slopes and hillsides are common here, and the grade and length of a sewer line on a sloped lot affect how waste flows and where problems tend to form.
Larger homes with many bathrooms also put more fixtures on the same main line, so a partial blockage there can show up in several rooms at once. We check access points such as cleanouts before choosing equipment, which keeps the work clean and avoids pulling toilets when it is not necessary.
Our drain and sewer services include:
The plumber who clears or inspects your line handles any repair and remains your contact for follow-up questions.
When a drain is cleared properly and any underlying damage is repaired, water leaves sinks, tubs, and toilets right away and stays that way. The gurgling stops, odors disappear, and you no longer need to keep a plunger in every bathroom. A camera inspection also gives you a record of your sewer line's condition, which helps you plan future work instead of reacting to a backup.
Ignoring drain trouble tends to end with a backup at the worst time. A slow drain becomes a full blockage, and a main line clog can push sewage into tubs, showers, and floor drains, creating a cleanup and health problem. Roots and cracks get worse with time, and a line that could have been spot repaired may eventually need full replacement. Repeated use of harsh chemical cleaners can also damage older pipes.
After the work, your plumber explains what was found, shows you camera footage when an inspection was done, and offers practical advice to help keep the lines clear, such as what not to put down the kitchen sink. If we see signs the line will need more attention later, we will tell you honestly without pressuring you to act today.
When the drains stop draining, let our office know and a licensed Kinsey plumber will open the line back up and price any repairs in advance.
