About Friendsville
Friendsville is a small city in western Blount County, named for the Quaker "Friends" who settled the area. The town is surrounded by farmland and rural homes, so properties around it often look different from in-town Maryville lots: longer runs of pipe, outbuildings with their own plumbing, and — on many rural parcels — private wells and septic systems instead of city water and sewer.
Plumbing problems common on rural properties
Long drain lines to a septic tank
The farther a tank sits from the house, the longer the line that can clog or sag. When every drain is slow, the plumber will usually check the line to the tank first; main line cleaning clears that section, while tank pumping is handled by a septic company.
What the disposal does to a septic tank
Garbage disposals add food solids to a septic system. If you're on septic, ask the provider about it during any garbage disposal repair or replacement, and keep grease out of the sink entirely.
Freezing pipes
Older farmhouses, crawlspaces and outbuildings can be more exposed in hard East Tennessee freezes. A frozen pipe that thaws can split and leak quickly — shut off the main water valve and call. Knowing where your main shut-off is before winter is one of the best habits a rural homeowner can have.
Ordinary clogs
Kitchen grease and bathroom hair happen everywhere. Clogged drain repair and drain cleaning handle the everyday stuff.
