Why Homeowners Choose Wickstrom
When you invite someone into your home to work on your plumbing, you want to know who they are and how they operate. We built Wickstrom Plumbing Heating & Cooling on Idaho values like honesty, accountability, and treating people like family. What started with Scott and Stacy Wickstrom in 1992 has grown into a multi generation company led by the next generation of the Wickstrom family.
Over more than 30 years serving the Treasure Valley, we have helped countless families in places like Boise, Nampa, Meridian, McCall, and Eagle with clogged drains and sewer issues. Our customers have shared their experiences online, and we are grateful to maintain a 4.9 star rating based on more than 650 reviews, along with BBB accreditation in good standing. Many of our customers have trusted us for decades, which is one of the strongest signs we are doing things the right way.
Every technician who arrives at your door is licensed and insured by the State of Idaho and has completed our 10 step Family Certification process. That process includes background checks and skills verification, so you know we have carefully vetted the person entering your home. We wear shoe covers on every visit, protect floors and fixtures, and clean up before we leave, even when the job involves messy drain and sewer work.
We also understand how worrying it can be to approve a repair when you do not know the final price. That is why we provide honest, upfront pricing before we start any work. We walk you through what we recommend, what it costs, and why, so there are no surprise charges at the end. Our work comes with a 100 percent satisfaction guarantee, and if something is not right, we work to make it right.
Drain & Rooter Services We Provide
Drains can clog for many different reasons, and the right solution depends on where the problem is and what is causing it. Our drain plumbers handle everything from simple clogs near a fixture to heavy blockages that affect the main sewer line serving the entire home.
In kitchen sinks, we often see grease, food particles, and soap buildup that narrow the pipe over time. Bathroom sinks and tub drains may slow due to hair and product residue. Floor drains in basements, garages, and laundry areas can collect lint, dirt, and debris. Our team can clear these issues and check whether there are signs of a wider problem in the system.
For more serious blockages, we provide rooter service that is designed to tackle stubborn obstructions that basic snaking might not handle. In older Eagle neighborhoods with mature trees, roots can find their way into aging sewer lines and grow inside the pipe. We can use the right equipment to cut through those obstructions and restore flow, then talk with you about options if the pipe itself appears damaged.
Homes in newer subdivisions around the Eagle area can still experience drain issues, although the causes may be different. Construction debris, sloped piping, and heavy use in busy households can all contribute to problems. Because we have completed hundreds of plumbing projects in this region in recent years, we are familiar with the typical layouts and materials used, which helps us diagnose and solve issues efficiently.
What To Do When Drains Back Up
Seeing a toilet overflow or a shower fill with dirty water is frustrating and sometimes alarming. Taking a few careful steps right away can limit damage and make it easier for our team to get your plumbing working again. You do not need to try to fix everything yourself, but you can make the situation safer.
If you have an active backup, start with these steps:
- Stop using water in affected fixtures and nearby bathrooms or sinks.
- Turn off washing machines or dishwashers that drain into the same system.
- Avoid using chemical drain cleaners, which can damage pipes and create hazards.
- Keep children and pets away from standing water, especially if it may contain sewage.
- Note which fixtures are slow or backing up, and how long the problem has been happening.
Heavy rain or rapid snowmelt in the Treasure Valley can sometimes coincide with main line problems, so it helps to pay attention to what is happening outside as well as inside. If more than one fixture is affected, or if a lower level floor drain is overflowing, there is a good chance the issue is in the main sewer line instead of a single sink or toilet. In those situations, professional help is usually the safest and most effective option.
When you call us, we ask a few focused questions about your home, the age of your plumbing if you know it, and which drains are affected. This helps us determine whether you need immediate emergency help or a prompt same day appointment. Our team is available around the clock for urgent plumbing issues and works to schedule drain visits as quickly as possible.
How Our Drain Plumbers Work
Inviting a drain plumber into your home comes with a lot of questions. How long will they be here, what exactly will they do, and what will it cost. We believe you deserve clear answers at every step. Our goal is to make the process predictable and respectful from the moment we arrive.
When our Family Certified technician shows up, you can expect a professional introduction, shoe covers on before they cross your threshold, and a quick walk through of the issue you are seeing. We listen to your description, ask a few clarifying questions, and then inspect the affected fixtures and, when helpful, related areas of the plumbing system. Because our team works in Eagle and other Treasure Valley communities every day, we are familiar with common pipe materials, layouts, and problem spots in local homes.
After we identify where the blockage likely sits and what might be causing it, we explain our findings in plain language. We outline the options that make sense for your situation, whether that is snaking a line, using a more powerful rooter Eagle homeowners often need for deeper clogs, or recommending further evaluation of the main sewer line. Before any work begins, we provide upfront pricing and get your approval, so you understand the cost of the visit.
During the service, we work carefully to protect your home. For indoor work, that can include floor coverings and careful placement of equipment. For outdoor sewer line issues, we make use of tools like mini excavators, horizontal boring machines, and pipe pullers when appropriate, which help us access and repair underground lines while limiting the disturbance to your yard, driveway, or landscaping. Our team cleans up work areas when the job is done, so you are not left dealing with debris.
Before we leave, we confirm that fixtures are draining as expected and review any maintenance tips that could help reduce future issues. We also remind you of our satisfaction guarantee. If you have questions after the visit, or if something does not seem right, we encourage you to call so we can address it promptly. Our aim is to build long term relationships with homeowners, not just handle a single clogged drain.
Frequently Asked Questions
How fast can your team get here?
We offer 24 or 7 emergency plumbing service and work to provide same day appointments when our schedule allows. Actual arrival times depend on the time of day, current call volume, and where you are located. When you call, we give you the soonest available options.
How much will my drain repair cost?
We provide upfront pricing after we inspect the problem and explain your options. The cost depends on factors like where the clog is, how severe it is, and what equipment is needed. You approve the price before work begins, and we do not add hidden fees to the final bill.
Will you need to dig up my yard?
Many clogs can be cleared from access points inside or near the home without excavation. If the main sewer line is damaged or collapsed, some digging may be necessary. We use mini excavators, horizontal boring machines, and pipe pullers to limit how much of your yard or driveway we disturb.
Why do my drains keep clogging again?
Recurring clogs often point to a deeper issue, such as tree roots in older sewer lines, bellies in the pipe, or heavy buildup along the walls of the line. Our team can investigate patterns, consider the age of your plumbing, and recommend solutions that address the underlying cause instead of just the symptom.
Who will be coming into my home?
You will see a licensed and insured technician who has completed our 10 step Family Certification process. This includes background checks and skills verification, so we know who we are sending to your door. Our plumbers wear shoe covers, respect your home, and clean up before they leave.
