Hydro Jetting, Clogged Drain Solutions, Toilet Repair, & More

Clogged drains are more than an inconvenience — they can lead to backups, water damage, and expensive plumbing repairs if not addressed promptly. When plungers and chemicals fall short, it’s time to call in a professional. Proper drain cleaning protects your pipes, restores flow, and prevents recurring issues.

At The Plumber, we specialize in fast, thorough drain cleaning services for homeowners across Lincoln, NE. With nearly 30 years of experience, we clear clogs using proven techniques that won’t damage your pipes. From kitchen sinks to sewer lines, we restore flow safely, effectively, and cleanly — every time.

What’s Included in Drain Cleaning:

Clog Identification & Diagnosis

We determine what’s causing your slow or stopped drain — grease, hair, food waste, foreign objects, or root intrusion — and recommend the safest method for removal.

Mechanical Snaking

We use professional-grade augers and cable machines to break up and extract stubborn blockages without damaging your plumbing system.

High-Pressure Hydro Jetting

For severe or recurring clogs, we use hydro jetting to blast away buildup in your pipes — ideal for grease-heavy kitchen lines or main sewer backups.

Toilet & Floor Drain Unclogging

From overflowing toilets to basement drain backups, we clear the problem and test for deeper line issues to prevent repeat incidents.

Sewer Line Inspection (Optional)

If clogs return frequently, we offer camera inspections to identify deeper issues in your home’s main sewer line — like tree roots, misalignments, or pipe collapse.

Drain Cleaning FAQs

How do I know if I need professional drain cleaning?

Slow draining, gurgling sounds, water backing up in sinks or tubs, and foul odors are all signs of a developing blockage. If plunging doesn’t help, give us a call.

Is chemical drain cleaner safe?

Not usually. Store-bought chemicals can corrode your pipes and harm the environment. We use mechanical or hydro methods that are safer and more effective.

Can you prevent future clogs?

Yes. We offer maintenance drain cleaning and can advise on safer habits (e.g., what not to flush or pour) to keep your plumbing running clear.

What if the problem is in my sewer line?

We can perform a camera inspection to determine if the clog is further down the line. If needed, we also offer sewer line repair and replacement services.

Do you offer emergency drain clearing?

Yes. We’re available for emergency response to clogs and backups — especially if you have standing water or overflow issues.
