Frequently Asked Questions in Indianola
My bathroom sink and tub drain slowly. What's the fix?
Slow bathroom drains almost always come down to hair and soap scum binding together just past the P-trap. The buildup narrows the pipe opening gradually, so drainage gets worse over time rather than stopping all at once. Roto-Rooter clears the P-trap and runs an auger through the branch line to remove the clog completely. If multiple bathroom fixtures are slow simultaneously, the issue may be further downstream in a shared branch.
What's the difference between a drain snake and hydro jetting?
A drain snake - or cable auger - punches through a blockage and pulls out the clog. Hydro jetting uses a high-pressure water stream to scour the pipe wall itself, removing calcified grease, mineral scale, and root debris that a cable leaves behind. For drains that clog repeatedly, hydro jetting is the longer-lasting fix because it cleans the pipe rather than just clearing a path through it.
My refrigerator's ice maker line is leaking. Is that a plumbing job?
Yes. Ice maker supply lines connect directly to the home's water supply, and a failed or loose line can leak slowly behind the refrigerator for weeks before it's noticed. Roto-Rooter technicians inspect the line, the shutoff valve feeding it, and the connection at the appliance to find where the leak originates and make the repair. Appliance water line connections fall squarely within standard plumbing service.
How do I know if I have a hidden water leak behind my walls?
Hidden leaks often show up as warm spots on the floor, discoloration on drywall, or a water meter that keeps spinning when every fixture is off. A Roto-Rooter technician uses moisture meters and visual inspection to trace the source without unnecessary demolition. Catching a hidden leak early prevents structural damage and keeps repair costs from compounding. Call 662-335-7234 to schedule a leak detection visit.
My water heater is making a rumbling noise. What's causing that?
Rumbling usually means sediment has settled on the tank floor. Over time, minerals in the water supply collect at the bottom, and the burner has to heat through that layer - causing the noise and cutting efficiency. Roto-Rooter technicians flush the tank, inspect the anode rod, and test the pressure relief valve to determine whether flushing resolves the issue or the unit needs replacement.
Why does my kitchen drain keep clogging even after I use drain cleaner?
Cooking grease cools and solidifies on pipe walls in layers. Chemical drain cleaners create a temporary opening but rarely remove the buildup lining the pipe. The grease layer keeps narrowing the opening, and clogs return within weeks. Roto-Rooter clears the P-trap and branch line with an auger and, for persistent buildup, hydro jets the pipe wall to restore full flow. Call 662-335-7234 to schedule service in Indianola, MS.
What causes low water pressure throughout the whole house?
Whole-house low pressure usually points to one of three things: a partially closed main shutoff valve, a failing pressure reducing valve (PRV), or a supply-side leak pulling pressure from the system. A Roto-Rooter technician checks the PRV setting, inspects the shutoff, and tests pressure at multiple points to isolate the cause. Low pressure at only one fixture typically means a clog or failing cartridge at that fixture.
My toilet backs up when I run the shower. What does that mean?
When two fixtures affect each other, the blockage is almost never at the fixture - it's in the main sewer line between the house and the city connection. Multiple fixtures share that line, so a clog there backs up whichever drain is lowest first. Roto-Rooter technicians auger or hydro jet the main line and can run a sewer camera to confirm the blockage location and check for root intrusion or pipe damage.
Can tree roots really get into my drain pipes?
Yes. Roots follow moisture and enter drain lines through hairline cracks at pipe joints - especially in older clay or cast iron sewer laterals. Once inside, they expand and catch debris until the line backs up. Roto-Rooter's Roto-Rooter Machine is specifically designed to cut through root intrusions. A follow-up camera inspection confirms whether the roots caused any structural damage that needs repair.
My basement floor drain is backing up. Is that a big problem?
A basement floor drain is the lowest point in the home's drainage system, so it's the first place to show signs when the main line is compromised. Backups there often mean a clog has developed between the floor drain and the main sewer line. Roto-Rooter technicians auger the floor drain line and inspect further downstream to determine whether the blockage is isolated or part of a larger main-line issue.
