When a cable is the right tool, that's what we bring.

Our drain cleaning rate is $95/hr for cable or power snake on bathroom sinks and single toilets. Tub, shower, kitchen drain, or main-line clogs are quoted at the $300/hr hydro-jet rate. Both billed hourly, no minimum. Most single-fixture snake jobs wrap in under an hour.

Bathroom sinks, single toilets, and all light plumbing (faucets, disposals, dishwashers, shut-off valves, leaks). Billed at $95/hr. You pay for the time we're on site. No minimum.

Those are quoted at the $300/hr hydro-jet rate. They look like simple fixture clogs, but they almost always take longer (P-trap access, grease, hair mats) and the jetter is the right tool for cleaning the line properly. We give you an upfront estimate before we start.

Single hard blockage in a bathroom-sink P-trap or a clogged toilet gets a cable or power snake at the $95/hr rate. Soft blockages spread through a line, grease, scale, or roots get the jetter at the $300/hr rate. We tell you which tool the job actually needs before we start.

We tell you at the door before switching tools. If the cable exposes a main-line problem, scale buildup, or anything jet-only can clear, we give you an upfront estimate at the $300/hr jet rate first. You decide. No surprise jumps from $95 to $300.

A slow drain still goes down, it just takes longer than it should. A backed-up drain stops going down entirely or sends water back up into another fixture (toilet gurgling when the shower runs, basement floor drain overflowing when the laundry runs). Backed-up is a main-line call. Slow is usually a fixture-level clog.

Three common causes in the Omaha metro: (1) cast iron scale narrowing a 50-year-old main line, which needs chain-knocker descaling instead of a cable; (2) tree roots at a PVC joint, which needs a root-cutter nozzle on the jetter; (3) grease buildup in a kitchen line, which needs a flush-pattern jetter pass. Snaking any of these just restores flow until the next cycle. We camera the line to find the actual cause.

For a bathroom sink or a slow tub, sometimes. Enzyme-based cleaners don't hurt. For a clogged main line, grease line, or anything that's already backed up, chemical drain cleaners either do nothing or they damage pipes and skin without clearing the clog. If you've already poured one in and it didn't work, tell us at the door so we handle it safely.

For a toilet, yes. A flange plunger clears a surprising number of calls before you need us. For a sink, cover the overflow hole first (otherwise you're just pushing air back and forth). If the plunger doesn't resolve it in a few tries, stop before you push the clog further down the line.
