What You Get Here
A Career, Not Just a Job.
The right shop changes everything. At Omaha Drain, the system is built so good people can win — in their paychecks, their skills, and at home.

Structured training, ride-alongs, and TruTech systems help newer techs grow and experienced techs sharpen their craft.

For Techs Tired of the Old Way
Tired of Broken Promises from Other Shops?
If you’ve bounced between shops that burn you out, play games with pay, or push high-pressure sales scripts, you’re not alone. We hear the same story from techs all the time.
- Slow days where you’re sent home without pay.
- “Up or out” quotas that put sales ahead of the right repair.
- No roadmap from helper to lead or installer.
- Leadership that hasn’t worked the tools in years (if ever).
How We’re Different
We Built Omaha Drain Around Technicians.
Omaha Drain started as a drain shop focused on fixing problems the right way — with cameras, jetters, and real diagnostics. That mindset still drives how we hire, train, and pay our team.
- Leadership team that still rides in trucks and understands the job.
- TruTechnician training playbook you can follow in the field.
- We back our techs when they slow down to diagnose, not just “run and gun.”

FAQ
Hiring & Career FAQs.
A few of the most common questions we hear from techs and office applicants. If you’re wondering something else, ask us during your first call or interview.
Do I need plumbing or drain experience to apply?
It depends on the role. Field positions like Plumber and Excavation / Sewer Installer typically require experience. Our Drain Cleaning Technician and some helper roles are built for people with mechanical aptitude who want a path into the trades — we’ll train the right person.
What does training look like for new team members?
Every new hire goes through our TruTechnician onboarding: ride-alongs with experienced techs, classroom-style training on safety and process, and ongoing coaching. You won’t be handed a truck and sent out blind.
How does pay work — hourly, salary, or performance-based?
Most field roles use a performance-based pay structure with guaranteed base and clear, written pay plans. Office roles (like CSR / Dispatcher) are typically hourly with bonus opportunities. We’ll walk through pay and benefits in detail during your interview.
What does the schedule look like?
We run full-time schedules with rotating on-call, especially for drain and emergency plumbing calls. Exact schedules depend on the position, but we do our best to balance workload and family time.
Do you run background checks and drug screening?
Yes. Because we work in people’s homes, all team members must pass a background check and are subject to our drug-free workplace policy.
How soon will I hear back after applying?
Most applicants hear from us within a few business days. If we’re not actively hiring for your role but think you’re a strong fit, we may keep your information on file and reach out when a spot opens.
