Sick of mopping up around the washer every time it drains?
A clogged laundry drain isn’t just annoying — it can derail your whole routine. Water rising around your ankles, soap scum and lint on the floor, or that awful sewer smell creeping into your basement is stressful and embarrassing when guests come over.
Maybe you’ve already tried plungers, chemicals, or a big-box drain snake and the drain is still a pain. Meanwhile, every load of laundry risks more water damage and ruined belongings.
How Omaha Drain fixes laundry clogs for good
We combine friendly, professional techs with serious equipment — from powered drain machines to high-pressure hydro jetting — to clear the whole blockage, not just poke a small hole in it.
- We clear the laundry line and floor drain, then test it so you see water draining like it should.
- We can run a drain camera to show you exactly what caused the clog — roots, lint, soap, or damaged pipe.
- We give you options: quick clear only or long-term repair with a Lifetime Warranty on drain repairs.
- No mess left behind — we wear boot covers, lay down mats, and clean up before we leave.
Common laundry drain problems we handle in the Omaha metro
From in-town basements to acreage homes with long laundry lines, our team sees all kinds of laundry and floor drain issues. If any of these sound familiar, we can help.
Washer standpipe overflows when the machine drains
High-volume discharge from modern washers can overwhelm a restricted line, causing the standpipe to gush water onto the floor every cycle.
Laundry floor drain backs up during showers or toilet flushes
Your laundry drain may be tied into the main sewer; when that line is compromised, the lowest drain (often the floor drain) becomes the “overflow point” for the whole house.
Slow, gurgling laundry sink or utility tub
Lint, soap, and debris collect in the trap and horizontal sections of the line, making your sink bubble and drain painfully slow.
Recurring musty or sewer smell in the laundry room
Dry traps, partial clogs, and hidden leaks can let sewer gas sneak into your home. We track down the cause and fix it at the source.
Basement “started to flood” after a big load of laundry
When backups hit suddenly, it feels like a disaster. We prioritize active flooding with emergency response, stabilize the situation, and get you back to normal fast.
Old cast iron laundry lines that clog again and again
For problem lines, we can descale, hydro jet, and even repair or replace sections so you’re not scheduling drain cleaning every few months.
