Comprehensive Drain Cleaning in Lincoln

Slow or stopped drains are a common headache for homeowners in Lincoln.

We can clear clogs from sinks, tubs, showers, and floor drains, restoring proper flow quickly. Water hardness in Northern California varies a lot by source, with snowmelt-fed systems running soft and many inland groundwater systems running mineral-heavy. We also address mineral buildup inside pipes, which hard water can make much worse.

Drain Cleaning in Lincoln

Slow or stopped drains are a frequent nuisance in Lincoln homes. Our drain cleaning service uses professional-grade augers and effective techniques to clear blockages from sinks, showers, and tubs.

Unlike chemical drain cleaners, our methods are safe for your pipes and more effective for stubborn blockages.

Drain Jetting and Unblocking for Businesses in Lincoln

Restaurant kitchens, salons and multi-unit buildings put far more grease, hair and debris down their drains than a typical home. We clear floor drains, grease lines and main sewer lines, often after hours to avoid closing. Scheduled jetting every three to six months keeps grease lines open and reduces emergency calls. We can also coordinate with grease trap pumping. Service records are provided for health inspections.

Sewer Line Cleaning and Root Removal in Lincoln

Tree roots seek moisture and slip into clay and cast iron sewer lines through joints and hairline cracks. Over time they form dense mats that catch everything flushed down the line. We cut roots with a sectional machine and blade, then jet the line to flush out debris. A foaming root treatment can slow regrowth for a year or more. If roots have cracked or crushed the pipe, we show you the camera footage and talk through repair.

Sewer Line Replacement in Lincoln

When sewer lines are severely damaged by corrosion, root intrusion, or shifting soil, replacement may be necessary. FBL Plumbing offers expert sewer line replacement services, including traditional trenching and modern trenchless options. We assess your property and provide the most efficient, least disruptive solution to restore your main sewer function, ensuring compliance with all local Lincoln codes.

Hydro Jetting in Lincoln

Hydro jetting sends water at up to 4,000 psi through a specialized nozzle that scours the full inside wall of the pipe. Unlike a cable, which punches a hole through the clog, jetting removes grease, scale and fine roots completely. It is the go-to method for restaurant drains and lines that clog again within months. We camera the line first to make sure the pipe is sound enough for jetting. Most residential jetting jobs take two to three hours.
