Solutions for Every Drain Problem
Austin’s mix of older bungalows and newer builds means no two drain situations are quite the same. Our drain clearing experts are trained to handle them all, and every Goettl drain clearing comes with a complementary sewer camera inspection so there’s no guessing about what’s behind the clog.
Recurring clogs could be a sign of something bigger.
If your complementary camera inspection finds any sewer damage, trenchless sewer repair options can restore your sewer line like new.

Drain Clearing & Maintenance
Austin’s hard water can cause mineral buildup and frequent drain issues. Our drain clearing and maintenance services ensure your plumbing is free of blockages and performs at its best. Regular maintenance can save you from costly repairs and keep your drains flowing smoothly, even with Austin’s challenging water conditions.
- Drain Clearing
Mini Jetting
Mini-jetting blasts away clogs in the drains leading to your sewer line, such as blocked shower, faucet, laundry or kitchen drains. If you’re noticing recurring clogs in one specific drain, mini-jetting may be the solution. It’s ideal for stubborn blockages and buildup, safely scouring the inside of the pipe without damaging it. More thorough than running a simple cable, a mini-jet delivers the benefits of pressurized drain clearing while protecting your pipes.
- Mini-Jetting
Hydro Jetting
Clogs can be caused by grease, roots, debris, and more. If you want an eco-friendly solution, hydro jetting is a powerful solution that can clear stubborn blockages caused by hard water scale and older pipe residue, restoring your drains to like-new condition.
- Hydro Jetting
Camera Inspection
Tree roots, deep clogs, and other problems can lurk deep inside your plumbing. Goettl’s camera inspection services use advanced technology to locate clogs, cracks, and root intrusions with precision. This non-invasive diagnostic approach saves time and ensures targeted, efficient repairs.

Clogged Drain Line Repair
The men that Goettl sent to our home were professional in appearance and work ethics. They took the time to make absolutely sure that I understood exactly what they were going to do to unclog our drain line. When they were finished, they tested absolutely everything. Tib and Raul were second to none in their professionalism and drain knowledge of what they were dealing with in our house. I absolutely Would not hesitate to call again. Thanks Goettl
Cleared in 30 Minutes
Clogged Kitched Sink
They came out the first time to unclog my drain. The gentleman from Goettl was very professional and personable. This time they came out and gave me an AC checkup. They explained what they were going to do. When they finished they explained to me and showed me everything they found and would suggest be taken care of. They showed me an estimate with my discounts that I did not know about and didn't expect. I will suggest to friends and family!
Caught Bigger Issue!
Kitchen Drain cLEAR
I had a problem with what was seemingly a clog in my kitchen sink and called Goettl for plumbing assistance. They were quick to respond and sent someone out the next day. Wil H. was thorough, respectful, and knowledgeable. He explained the issue to me and was able to fix the clog and also provide options for a much larger issue that he discovered when snaking the main lines. I would definitely call them again if the need arises. Thank you!
It Actually Drains Now
Kitchen Sink Clog Call
A clogged kitchen drain was giving me fits! As a DYI'er I tried everything. This is the first clogged drain in this house and we've lived here for many years. Called Goettl and setup an appointment. Wil Howington was on time and was very friendly. Wil got busy and fixed the problem. He was very professional, determined and cleaned up everything. And now my drain actually drains! I would recommend! In fact I'm having some additional work done later.
Double-Checked It!
Plumbing Drain ClearING
I am very happy with service provided by Goettl. Zach and Wil came out to unclog my drains. They took their time to explain the problem and showed me evidence (camera images). Zach double- checked his diagnosis with a second camera before performing the repair. He found a piece of plastic floating in the pipe. This is my first time using Goettle. I am glad that finally I found a go-to plumbing company that I can trust for my plumbing needs.
Above And Beyond!
PlumBing Clogged Drain
Our kitchen drain was clogged, so we could not run the dishwasher, or use the sink to rinse or hand wash dishes, pots or pans. I don’t know if you understand how restricting it is not to be able to use a kitchen when you have kids, but it was hard. I even tried all of the DYI fixes and nothing worked. Matt S. from Goettl Austin was able to show up early, was extremely polite and when he identified the problem, went above and beyond to make sure it was taken care of no matter what.
Needed Everything!
Sewer Line Clog Cleared
Goettl was very easy and quick to schedule with and I especially like the text alerts they provide with status updates. Richard A. repaired a clogged kitchen drain line, a clogged bathroom sink, rebuilt the drain line and also repaired a toilet that had a broken filter. Everything was repaired quickly and professionally. Richard took the time to educate me on the issues and how I can maintain my pipes. I will use Goettl for all my future plumbing needs!
Snakes And Jets!
SEWER DRAIN SERVICE CALL
Had an issue with clogged drains throughout the house. I called Goettl and the technician, Wyatt, was very knowledgeable about the drain clog problem, offered us a solution (first snaking and then hydro jetting when the snake didn’t clear it), and he got the work done efficiently. Plumbing costs have gotten way out of hand, but Goettl had a special online offer that made it more reasonable so it makes sense to check their website for discounts. Thanks Goettl!
Very Professional
Backed Up Drain Piping
I highly recommend Goettl, for any HVAC and Plumbing services. The team is very professional and did a great job on reconfiguring the piping for draining the AC evaporation which was getting backed up. I used them on another project for a water heater install with an expansion tank.<br>I would like to thank the HVAC Tech, Joshua T. Also the installers on HVAC side: Joe C. & William M and Larry R for the plumbing install of water heater and expansion tank.
Slow-Draining Tub!
Clogged Bathroom Tub
Had an issue with one of our drains and decided to call Goettl. Tib was sent to clear our slow-draining tub. He was professional, kind, communicative, and knowledgeable and knew how to tackle the problem. You see, the tub is 40 years old and has cranky pipes. Tib, thank you for taking the time to not only fix my drain problem but also tell me about your beautiful country of Romania. I will call you the next time I need a plumber! Thanks Goettl!
Second To None!
Clogged Drain Repair Call
We had an issue with a clogged drain and the men that Goettl sent to our home were professional in appearance and work ethic. They communicated the whole time and made absolutely sure that I understood exactly what they were going to do to unclog our drain line. When they finished, they tested everything. Tib and Raul were second to none in their professionalism and knowledge of what they were dealing with. Would not hesitate to call again.
Excellent Plumber!
Clogged Drain Pipe Call
Wil came out and unclogged a drain that I could not. The pricing was very reasonable, working with Goettl Plumbing overall was an excellent experience from customer service throughout completion of the job. Wil especially, was very helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable with plumbing and left us with future tips as well as assisting with a few quick questions about our AC. He was great, you should ask for him by name if you want an excellent plumber.

FAQs
Why are clogged pipes a common issue in Austin homes?
Austin’s hard water can cause mineral buildup in pipes, while grease, food particles, and soap scum can contribute to frequent blockages in sinks, showers, and drains.
When should I consider a camera inspection for my pipes in Austin?
A camera inspection is recommended if you experience recurring clogs, slow drains, or suspect damage from tree roots or shifting soils, common in Austin’s variable terrain.
How does Austin’s hard water affect my drains and pipes?
The high mineral content in Austin’s water can lead to scaling inside pipes, narrowing the flow and increasing the risk of clogs and reduced efficiency.

Yes, clogged pipes can cause leaks or inefficiencies, leading to water waste, which is especially important to address in Austin’s eco-conscious community.
