Drain and sewer repair in Omaha
Clogged drains, backed-up sewers and slow lines all have a cause. Micro Plumbing clears drains, looks inside the line with a sewer camera, and repairs what the camera finds.
Omaha drain cleaning services
Hair, grease, soap, mineral buildup and things that should not be flushed cause most clogs. Micro Plumbing clears kitchen, bath, laundry and floor drains and main sewer lines, then tells you what caused the clog so it is less likely to come back. More on drain cleaning.
Sewer inspection and repair
When clogs keep coming back, or several drains back up at once, the problem is usually in the main line. A sewer camera inspection shows roots, cracks, sags and breaks. Then the plumber recommends the right fix, from a cleaning to sewer line repair.
Tree roots
Roots go looking for water and grow into joints and cracks in older sewer lines, especially clay and cast iron. Cleaning cuts them back; repairing the damaged section keeps them out.

Questions about drains and sewers
Why do I need a sewer camera inspection?
Because it shows the actual problem: roots, a sag, a crack or a collapsed section. You see the footage and decide from facts, not guesses.
Are store-bought drain cleaners safe for my pipes?
Used now and then they usually are not a disaster, but they rarely fix a real clog and can damage older pipes. If a drain keeps clogging, the cause is further down the line.
Why does my basement smell like sewer?
Often a floor drain or an unused fixture has a dry trap, which lets sewer gas in. Pour water into the drain. If the smell stays, a vent or sewer line problem may be the cause.
