Drain Cleaning

When drains are slow, overflowing, or completely blocked, you need a trusted plumbing partner who acts quickly and effectively. At Good Bros Plumbing, we specialize in professional drain cleaning services throughout the Oklahoma City area. Whether it’s a kitchen sink that’s backing up, a shower drain that won’t clear, or a commercial facility experiencing frequent drain issues, our team is prepared to handle the job with precision, speed, and care.

Why Proper Drain Cleaning Matters

Drain problems may start minor, but can lead to major headaches if ignored:

• Slow drainage often signals a build-up of grease, hair, soap scum, food debris or other foreign material.

• Recurring clogs may be a symptom of deeper issues in the drain line or venting.

• Overflowing drains or backups can lead to water damage, mold growth, unpleasant odors, and health risks.

• Damage to pipes from persistent clogs can shorten the life of your plumbing system and lead to expensive repairs or replacements.
  By calling Good Bros Plumbing early, you can save money, protect your property, and maintain optimal plumbing performance.

Our Drain Cleaning Services

Kitchen & Bathroom Sink Drain Cleaning

Whether it’s grease build-up in a kitchen or hair and soap in a bathroom, we remove clogs and clean the drain pathway to restore normal flow.

Shower & Bathtub Drain Maintenance

Water pooling in the shower or slow draining tubs are both annoying and indicative of blockage. We clear the trap, clean the drain line, and ensure proper flow.

Floor Drains & Utility Drains

Basements, laundry rooms, garages, and commercial spaces often have floor drains. We maintain and clean these drains to prevent backups, odors, and pest issues.

Main Sewer & Line Blockage Removal

When your primary drain line is blocked or clogged, you’ll see symptoms in multiple fixtures. We inspect, clear the line, and advise on long-term solutions.

Hydro-Jetting & High-Pressure Cleaning

For stubborn build-ups, tree-root intrusion, grease lines or older pipes, we use hydro-jetting to flush full-force water through the line for a deep clean and restored flow.

Camera Inspection & Diagnostics

To diagnose recurring or complex drain problems, we can deploy a video camera into the line to locate blockages, structural issues, or root intrusion and determine the best corrective option.

Preventive Drain Maintenance

Rather than waiting for a clog to become a crisis, we offer scheduled maintenance to keep drains clear, reduce downtime, and protect your plumbing investment.

What to Expect During the Drain Cleaning Process

1. Initial Contact & Scheduling
   Call us at 405-708-9186 or book online. We’ll ask about the symptoms — fixture affected, how long it’s been happening, any unusual sounds or smells — and schedule a convenient time.

2. On-Site Assessment
   Our technician will arrive on time, inspect the affected drain(s), ask more questions about how the problem started, check nearby fixtures, and determine the likely cause of the blockage or slow drain.

3. Diagnosis

   • We check for obvious clogs at traps or clean-outs.

   • For persistent or recurring issues, we may perform a camera inspection to locate root intrusion, pipe collapse, grease-line build-up, or other underlying issues.

   • We will explain findings, show photos or video if applicable, and outline our recommended solution.

4. Cleaning & Clearing

   • For standard clogs: we use mechanical drain snakes or augers to break up and remove the blockage.

   • For more severe or recurring issues: hydro-jetting is used to blast away grease, roots, or scale inside the pipe.

   • After clearing, we run water through the system and check flow at the affected fixture and sometimes others to confirm everything is cleared.

5. Testing & Finishing
   We confirm that drainage is restored, water backs up no further, and there are no leaks or residual issues. We clean the work area and discuss next steps, if any.

6. Preventive Advice & Follow-Up
   We’ll provide maintenance tips (e.g., what not to flush, how to avoid grease build-up, hair strainers in showers). If we discover underlying issues, we’ll recommend whether monitoring, scheduled maintenance, or pipe replacement is appropriate.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: How long will a drain cleaning take?
A: For a typical sink or shower clog, 30 minutes to an hour is common. If the main line is involved or hydro-jetting is needed, it could take longer.
Q: Will you clean the entire drain line or just the clogged section?
A: We will clear the blockage and often flush the line to ensure the surrounding pipe is clean. For deeper issues (like roots or grease build-up throughout the line), we may recommend full-length cleaning or future maintenance.
Q: What if the clog keeps coming back?
A: Recurring clogs often indicate a deeper problem (pipe collapse, tree roots, improper slope, grease build-up). We’ll diagnose the root cause and discuss long-term solutions.
Q: Is hydro-jetting safe for older pipes?
A: Yes—when performed by experienced technicians who assess pipe condition first. We ensure pipe age/materials are safe for high-pressure cleaning.
Q: Do you offer emergency drain cleaning?
A: Yes. While we schedule based on availability, we understand drain backups are urgent and strive to respond quickly for emergency situations.

Why Choose Professional Drain Cleaning vs. DIY

It’s tempting to reach for a store-bought chemical or plunger, but professional drain cleaning offers several benefits:

• Thorough clearing – DIY methods may clear the immediate blockage, but not the build-up or root intrusion behind it.

• Correct diagnosis – A professional will determine if the issue is symptomatic of a larger problem (e.g., pipe damage, slope issues).

• Prevent damage – Misuse of chemicals or improper tools can damage pipes or fixtures, leading to costlier repairs.

• Time & convenience – We handle the job quickly and cleanly, with minimal disruption.

• Long-term protection – We can set you up with a maintenance plan to avoid future blockages.

How to Prepare for Your Appointment

• Clear the area around the drain or fixture so our technician can work easily.

• If you have had previous backups, note the date and what you or someone in the household tried to fix.

• Mention any recent changes (e.g., tree removal, new landscaping, heavy grease use in kitchen, lots of hair in bathroom) — these often provide clues.

• Ensure someone over 18 is present to discuss the diagnosis and approve the work.

• Consider any special access needs or unusual conditions (e.g., low-clearance crawl spaces) so we bring the right equipment.

After the Service: What to Watch For

• Flow returns to normal, and no new pooling or slow-draining.

• No unpleasant odors from drains or basement floor drains.

• Monitor for any signs of recurring backups or slow drains in other parts of your home.

• If you see water backup again, unusual gurgling sounds, or wet flooring near drains, contact us promptly.
