Steve D.
I am a "Parthenon Partner" which means I get two HVAC tuneups each year as well as a plumbing checkup. Both of those services were performed today. I value punctuality, and the HVAC tech and the plumbing tech were able to arrive earlier than their scheduled window. Both of the young men were polite and professional. They gave me a verbal report before leaving, and will send me a report on anything that needs to be watched. The big thing to me is they do NOT recommend anything unless it is critical and they will show you why it needs attention. I highly recommend Parthenon for your plumbing and HVAC service.

Finally, a plumbing company that still believes in fair and honest pricing, and being punctual! Guys, I asked my wonderful tech, Eli, if I could tip him via cash app/venmo/etc after he said expeditiously and neatly capped off my water lines, and he said “oh no ma’am, that’s alright, they pay me enough”. I almost FAINTED. Nowadays you can’t buy an ice cream cone without tipping someone.

Parthenon Plumbing was at our home within just a few hours of calling them. The technician was knowledgeable and professional. While I hated to hear the diagnosis (our 16 year old unit is nearing end-of-life), I’m thankful that Parthenon can install a new unit before the winter weather sets in.
Spencer C.
I use Parthenon for both my plumbing and HVAC needs, they’re top of the line! Fast, knowledgeable, and fair. Great experience every time.
Ned H.
Parthenon is what you want in a local plumbing company. Good communicators, professional and polite staff, excellent work, fair price, and a few suggestions (not high pressure upsales) from technician about opportunities for improvement.
Lindsay B.
Appreciate the consistent communication, timeliness, and transparency of this company. Have had plumbing and HVAC services and both were great...Always respectful, timely, and competent. Highly recommend!
Sydney B.
Cody did a great job on my HVAC cleaning/maintenance! He was personable and took the time to diagnose issues. James also did wonderful job on my plumbing cleaning/maintenance! He was kind and took the time to develop a plan for my house. Very pleased with Parthenon.
Kent M.
We had repeated issues with our kitchen sink leaking from pipes/garbage disposals. Other plumbing companies have gauged us with up-charges on quick fixes and advised us to purchase overpriced garbage disposals. Stan gave us options and advice - he made the decision easy for someone like me who is NOT handy, much less a plumbing professional. I highly recommend Parthenon!
James T.
I contacted them for a clogged kitchen drain a little before 1:00; they called back immediately. A few minutes later they called to say a repairman was on his way--allow 30 minutes to arrive. He was there by 1:30, did the job and was finished with the billing by 2:00. Not an emergency by any means, but awesome response.
George R.
Parthenon delivers best-in-class service. I had an emergency HVAC issue on a day that temperatures were going to be in the teens, and they not only squeezed me in that same day, but found a low-cost resolution to the problem. I’m joining their Partnership Program. As as a REALTOR®, I’m now moving them to the top of my “Preferred Vendors” list.
Zanna M.
If you miss how small towns treat their customers and that’s what you’re looking for in a big city like Nashville, then Parthenon Plumbing are your people! This company took exceptional care of me and made me feel confident in the big decision...

How to Tell Your Drain Pipes Need Professional Repair

Drain pipe problems rarely announce themselves with a single obvious sign. Nashville homeowners often notice a combination of slow drains, foul odors near fixtures, and unexplained wet spots in their yard before realizing the issue runs deeper than a simple clog. Catching these warning signs early can save you from costly water damage and emergency drain repair down the line.

Watch for these common indicators that your drain pipes need professional drain repair:

  • Multiple slow-draining fixtures throughout the house
  • Gurgling sounds coming from pipes or drains
  • Sewage odors near drains or in the yard
  • Recurring clogs despite repeated cleaning
  • Water stains on ceilings or walls below bathrooms
  • Unexplained patches of lush, green grass in the yard

If you notice any combination of these symptoms, scheduling a professional drain pipe inspection is the smartest next step. Our licensed technicians use camera inspections to pinpoint the exact location and cause of the problem, so you get a targeted drain pipe repair instead of guesswork.

Drain Pipe Issues We Fix Most Often

Middle Tennessee homes face unique drain pipe challenges thanks to the region’s clay-heavy soil and seasonal temperature swings. Tree root intrusion is one of the most common causes of drain pipe damage we see in Nashville, TN, especially in neighborhoods with mature landscaping and older sewer lines. Roots seek out moisture and can crack, collapse, or completely block drain pipes over time.

Corrosion is another frequent drain repair issue, particularly in homes built before the 1980s that still rely on cast iron or galvanized drain pipes. Over time, these materials deteriorate from the inside out, creating rough surfaces that trap debris and accelerate clogs. Pipe joints can also separate due to ground shifting, allowing soil and roots to enter the line.

Bellied pipes, where a section of the line sinks and creates a low spot, collect waste and water that lead to persistent backups. Our team handles each of these drain repair scenarios with the right approach for the specific problem, whether that means trenchless relining, spot repairs, or sectional replacement. 

How Our Drain Pipe Repair Process Works

Every drain pipe repair starts with a thorough diagnostic. We run a high-definition camera through your drain line to identify the exact problem, its location, and the condition of the surrounding pipe. This step eliminates unnecessary digging and ensures the drain repair targets the actual issue.

Once we have a clear picture, we walk you through your options with upfront pricing and no hidden fees. For minor cracks or joint separations, trenchless pipe lining can restore your drain without excavation. For more extensive damage, we perform targeted sectional repairs that minimize disruption to your yard and landscaping.

After completing the repair, our technicians test the line with a follow-up camera inspection to confirm proper flow and verify the fix is solid. We clean up the work area and make sure everything is restored before we leave. You get a lasting drain pipe repair backed by experienced professionals who have handled thousands of jobs across Nashville and Middle Tennessee.
