Repairing a sewer line is a complex process. Since the sewer main line is entirely underground, excavating your yard is the only way to access the sewer main. Our experienced plumbers may need to use large equipment, such as a backhoe to reach your sewer main. During the process, we also need to obtain a permit from the city. All these things can certainly add up to the total amount of expenses.

Hope Plumbing offers competitive prices for sewer repair in Indianapolis. We also make sure that our prices are upfront before we proceed with the repair. We understand that it is more important to get your sewer repair fixed rather than to make a profit.

Softener systems are crucial, especially in Indiana. We have some of the hardest water in the country and that can wreak havoc on your plumbing system. Hard water creates scale deposits that can gunk up your water lines, as well as your fixtures. It also dries out your skin and hair, and leaves water stains on your dishware. Installing a water softener can help prevent these issues, prolong the lifespan of your plumbing system and make cleaning your home easier.


A water softener removes calcium, magnesium, and other minerals from your home’s water. A water conditioner changes the chemical makeup of these minerals to help prevent scale build up in your water lines. The minerals are still present in the water, but they will not cause as much damage as they would without a conditioner system.

Odors stemming from a kitchen sink are often related to food particles stuck in the drain and/or disposal. A simple way to clean your disposal is to put liquid dish soap on an ice cube and run your disposal. Another trick to help eliminate odors is to put lemon juice down the disposal before running it. If you are still experiencing a foul odor, you may want to call the professionals at Hope Plumbing to investigate further.

There are several differences between a tank heater and a tankless heater, most notably the amount of space a tank heater needs compared to a tankless heater. Another key difference is the amount of gas or electricity a tank heater uses. Tank water heaters run constantly where tankless water heaters only kick on when a fixture calls for water – ultimately cutting down your utility cost. Not to mention, tankless water heaters provide unlimited hot water and often have a longer life expectancies than a tank heater.


There are a few reasons to call Hope Plumbing about your water heater. We recommend yearly water heater flushes to help maintain the lifespan of your water heater. Other signs that you may need a plumber is if your water heater is leaking or if it is making popping sounds. The popping noise is a classic sign that the scale has built up on the water heater.
