Mother plumbing went beyond my expectations. Josh came out to our home SAME DAY as I called! It's an older andhome but has been remodeled. We had sewage come back up through our shower . He was able to quickly fix the issue. They even used a camera to look through all our pipes to completely fix the issue and make sure it wasn't something more complicated. He was so nice and talked me through everything. I know next to nothing about plumbing but he helped me understand the issue and haven't had an issue since! When he told me the price too I was shocked- especially for same day service on a weekend! It was so reasonable compared to all the other companies I called. They wore booties over their shoes and I felt like they went above and beyond to clean up. I swear it was cleaner than normal after they left! Thank you Mother! I will 100% use y'all for any plumbing issue.

Justin answered phone right away on a Sat night around 6:00pm. He quickly gave me the specifics eta and in about 30 min Jerry showed up. Jerry quickly figured out what the issue was and unclogged the line. I recommend this company. Very professional and quick response.

Rick Vantrease came out and did a great job unclogging our main line. He worked quickly and did exactly what needed to be done. We would highly recommend Mother Modern Plumbing and Rick for plumbing issues. We will definitely be contacting again if needed. The cost was great as well.

Rick came out to help us with a problem we were having, and he was able to quickly identify what the issue was. He explained the issue, and the work needed to remedy. I had not heard of Mother Modern Plumbing until the other day, but I’m happy to have them in supporting our needed work!

The guys were great they got our pressure test done same day we called and once the city came out and notified us of a few updates we needed they came back out and fixed the city issues. The guys are friendly and the price was affordable. I highly recommend them for any plumbing needs.

We thought we were having plumbing issues requested a plumber to come out. They were out here the same day. They gave us a time frame of 10-12 got here around 11:45 ish and sent us a text to let us know they were on the way. Gave us different options to resolve the situation. Luckily it just turned out to be clogged line. Good company, they do what they say and they got there on time. Would recommend.

Josh Dudley, Master Plumber, fixed the clogged toilet in a jiffy. He was efficient and pleasant. His apprentice, Connor, paid attention and was clearly also a fine person. Mother Modern Plumbing is excellent.,

Water was backing up in my kitchen sink. I did everything I could think of: vinegar and baking soda, using an allen wrench to loosen up anything in the garage disposal, removing the pipes and checking for clogs. Nothing worked. I found MMP through Next Door reviews, and they came out the same day I called! After sending a camera down, they discovered there is a dip in the pipe under my foundation, and over many years, that got clogged up. Unfortunately there is no fixing that, but he did manage to get it unclogged! I just have to be diligent about not using my garbage disposal as much. The total was $300.

Dillon and his apprentice Steven did an AMAZING job and cleared my drain and much more professional than the last plumber that came out Saturday who couldn't fix my problem. And I got the red carpet treatment. Like they actually had red carpet laid out when I opened the door! They also cleaned my bathtub out that was dirty from the plumbing issues. Absolutely would recommend 1000%!!! 😊

Edited* Originally gave 4 stars upgraded to 5. Not from a bad experience but more or less just misconception due to services/pricing. Overall great company, the plumber was great showed up on time and was efficient and confident in his work (which I value). Customer service was even better the company reached out after the apt and asked about things we went over pricing and realized their was a correction to be made so to say and they insisted on adjusting the price for me. Im not really used to that type of treatment so that was nice. Go ahead and look into these guys you should be happy!

Mother’s came out to assess a sewer drainage leak that we had. Colton and his team were extremely helpful, and very knowledgeable. They came to my house within 24 hours of me calling, and were incredibly thorough and fair. Steven and Colton were great, and the pricing was extremely transparent. I like the fact that everything was digital and emailed to me!

Best plumbing service EVER! I had a clogged drain (actually three - a dog wash, a washing machine, and a sink were all affected by a single clog), and called someone who had worked on our plumbing before (who shall remain unnamed). He worked for a few hours, but was unable to clear the clog. Then he went under the house to examine the plumbing near those sinks and came out and said that it all needed to be replaced. The estimate was just over $11,000. I said I needed a second opinion and contacted Mother. They said they could have Josh out that same day (I had contacted the first company on Friday and they couldn't come out till the following Tuesday). Josh clearly knows his stuff - he was able to clear the clog, he showed me on the snake-camera thing where the clog had been, and said there was no reason to replace the existing pipes for years to come (he went under the house to look, too). He literally saved me $11,000 and got us running again within hours of contacting them. I'll never call anyone else again for plumbing.

Dillon Ashton came out for an emergency call when a drain line from our laundry room was clogged. He thoroughly assessed the situation, walked me through everything he was doing, and answered all of my questions giving me confidence the job was being done well. Thank you, Dillon, and Mother Modern Plumbing for helping us respond to an emergency in our house, getting someone out here in about one hour from the time we called.

A quick shout out to Mathew van Hoy of Mother Modern Plumbing. Not only was he knowledgeable and methodical in assessing my drain issue, he was also a good listener and clear communicator. I appreciate Mathew for being focused on proposing the most reasonable fix. It was clear that my best interest was top-of-mind for him. Based on this experience, I’ll gladly recommend Mother Modern to my most trusted friends!

Cotton was outstanding in his professional approach as we met. He explained what he would do and explained the cost. He went right to work once I gave him the ok. Our project was to clean the bath tub drain. The job was completed quickly and the drain is clear. I’m happy to recommend Cotton Stanley for his professional friendly outstanding work. Mother’s plumbing is fortunate to have Cotton as an employee representing their company. I will definitely call for him again if we have any plumbing issues in the future.

Josh was able to quickly resolve my clogged drain issue just by running his camera line through my clean out. He also ran his camera through my other clean out. We were both able to see real time that there were no breaks in my cast-iron sewer lines. He answered all my questions about potential options in repairing my 47 year-old sewer line in the future. Josh also took a look at a leaky shower handle. I had in my bathroom and gave me a recommendation on how I could fix it myself. I highly recommend Mother Modern Plumbing.

I had a great experience with Mother Modern plumbing from inquiring about service on the phone with Gabby through installation with Joe. Dillion came out and scoped our project and gave us a bid right then. Joe came out the same day and installed my kitchen sink, faucet, cleared blockage and installed bathroom sink all before 4 pm and in time to cook thanksgiving dinner. The whole team was a breeze to work with and they explained everything which I appreciate! I signed up for the membership and will use them for my hot water heater in a few months and future projects. Thank you!!

A sewage backup in your master bath at 6 AM turns a Tuesday into a crisis. When multiple fixtures stop draining at once, your home's main sewer line is telling you something - and it needs professional attention now.
Mother Modern Plumbing provides camera-verified drain cleaning that identifies the exact cause of your blockage before any work begins. No guessing. No return visits. No damage to your travertine or custom finishes. Our technicians arrive in marked vehicles, respect your schedule, and leave your home exactly as they found it - minus the drainage problem.
Call Mother 24/7 to schedule drain cleaning in Southlake!
The Warning Signs Southlake Homeowners Recognize Too Late
A slow shower drain or gurgling toilet rarely stays a single-fixture problem in homes with compromised main lines. What starts as a minor inconvenience in one bathroom can signal a developing blockage that affects your entire drainage system.
Slow Drains and Standing Water Signal Partial Blockages
Water pooling around your feet during a shower means something is restricting flow downstream. In Southlake homes - especially those built between 1980 and 1995 - this restriction often sits deeper than a simple hair clog. Partial blockages allow some water through while trapping debris that compounds the problem daily.
Multiple Fixtures Affected Means Main Line Involvement
When your guest bath toilet gurgles while the kitchen sink drains, your main sewer line is involved. This cross-fixture behavior happens because all your home's drains connect to a single main line running to the city sewer. A blockage there affects everything upstream.
Recurring Clogs Despite DIY Efforts Indicate Deeper Obstruction
That plunger might clear the immediate backup, but if you're reaching for it monthly, the real problem sits beyond your reach. Recurring clogs in the same fixture - or rotating between fixtures - point to a main line issue that hardware-store tools cannot address.
Real Drain Cleaning Results for a Southlake Homeowner
Mother recently completed a drain cleaning checkup for a regular customer in Southlake. At our first appointment, a camera inspection revealed blockage concerns both inside the home and in shallower portions of his main sewer line.
Our drain cleaning technician performed a follow-up inspection of his entire drainage line from bathroom sink to main sewer line. We were pleased to find last year's hydro jetting service kept his main line clear, but we did find some hair and organic material buildup in the bathroom sink drain pipe.
We performed drain clearing service on the master bathroom sink with our augering equipment. Then, we provided him with Endure, an enzymatic drain cleaner that offers long-term, non-toxic maintenance to keep his sink clear of future clogs.

Getting ahead of scale, root intrusions and organic clogs isn't just good for your drains. It's smart for your whole home.
Camera Inspection Ends the Guessing Game Before Work Begins
For homeowners who value their time and their travertine, diagnostic imaging eliminates the "let's try this and see" approach that leads to return visits and escalating invoices.
Identifying Blockage Location, Cause, and Pipe Condition in One Visit
A fiber-optic camera travels through your drain line and transmits real-time video to a monitor. Your Mother technician sees exactly:
- Where the blockage sits (10 feet out or 80 feet out)
- What caused it (roots, grease, collapsed pipe, or debris)
- The condition of your pipe walls (scale buildup, cracks, joint separation)
This information determines the right solution the first time.
Documentation You Can See and Verify
You watch the screen alongside your technician. No mystery. No "trust me, it's bad down there." You see the root mass or grease dam with your own eyes before approving any work.
Professional Methods That Match the Problem
Hardware-store snakes and chemical cleaners weren't designed for 100-foot main lines or grease-coated cast iron.
Mechanical Snaking for Accessible Blockages
A motorized auger with a cutting head breaks through soft blockages and retrieves debris from branch lines and main sewers. This method works well for hair accumulation, paper products, and minor root intrusion.
Hydro Jetting for Grease, Scale, and Root Infiltration
Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water - up to 4,000 PSI - scours pipe walls clean. Hydro jetting removes:
- Grease buildup that snaking pushes aside but doesn't eliminate
- Mineral scale from Southlake's hard water
- Root tendrils that regrow after mechanical cutting
This method restores pipes to near-original diameter.
Why Chemical Drain Cleaners Damage Pipes and Delay Real Solutions
Chemical cleaners generate heat and corrosive reactions that weaken pipe walls - especially in older cast iron or clay pipes common in Southlake's 1980s-era homes. They also fail to remove the blockage completely, creating a cycle of temporary relief and recurring backups.
Grease, Hair, and Organic Buildup in Southlake's Hard Water
At 5-10 grains per gallon, Southlake's moderately hard water accelerates mineral scale that traps grease and soap scum inside drain walls. This compounds blockages faster than softer-water cities experience.
Kitchen Drains and the Grease Accumulation Cycle
Cooking oils solidify as they cool inside your drain line. Hard water minerals bond to this grease layer, creating a narrowing passage that catches food particles. Each meal adds another layer.
Bathroom Buildup in High-Use Fixtures
Soap scum combines with hair and hard water scale to form dense mats in shower drains and bathroom sinks. High-use fixtures in master baths accumulate this buildup faster than guest bathrooms.
Live Oaks and Clay Soil Create Southlake's Hidden Drain Threat
The same mature trees that shade Timarron fairways and line Town Square send root systems capable of grafting underground and traveling 15+ feet toward moisture. When Tarrant County's expansive clay shrinks during drought - 67 consecutive dry days in 2022 - pipe joints shift and separate. Roots follow.
Southlake's signature live oaks present a specific challenge. Their root systems naturally graft to neighboring trees underground, creating extensive networks that seek out any available moisture. Your main sewer line, carrying water 24 hours a day, acts as a beacon.
The clay soil beneath Shady Oaks and throughout Southlake amplifies this problem. During drought cycles, clay shrinks and pulls away from pipe joints. When rains return, the soil swells - but the gaps remain. Roots exploit every opening.
How Root Intrusion Progresses from Slow Drain to Full Backup
Root intrusion follows a predictable pattern:
- Fine root tendrils enter through a joint gap or hairline crack
- Roots expand inside the pipe, catching debris and grease
- A partial blockage forms, causing slow drains
- The root mass grows until flow stops completely
- Sewage backs up into your lowest fixtures
Early detection through camera inspection catches this progression at stage 2 or 3 - before the backup.
Why Homes Built Between 1980-1995 Face Elevated Risk
Southlake's early master-planned developments used pipe materials now known to be vulnerable. Polybutylene pipes - installed widely during this era - become brittle over time and crack at joints. These cracks invite root intrusion.
Homes in established neighborhoods like Timarron and older sections near Town Square fall squarely in this risk window. If your home was built during Southlake's first development boom, your pipes have spent 30-40 years in aggressive clay soil surrounded by mature root systems.
Mother’s Preventive Maintenance Protects Your Drains
Scheduled drain cleaning removes buildup before it becomes a backup - and before it becomes a story you're telling at the next Carroll booster event.
Annual drain cleaning clears grease, hair and organic clogs from your drain lines to keep pipes clear. Mother’s non-toxic enzyme drain cleaners and augering offer safe, lasting solutions.
Camera inspection every two years documents pipe condition and catches deterioration early. This baseline allows your plumber to track changes and recommend intervention before emergency repairs become necessary.
Your Southlake home represents significant investment in both property and lifestyle. Protecting your drainage system protects your foundation, your finishes, and your schedule.
