What are the responsibilities and job description for the Drain and Sewer Specialist position at American Rooter Plumbing?
Job Title: Drain and Sewer Specialist (Residential)
Pay: $28.00-$32.00 per hour performance incentives
Earning Potential: $70,000-$110,000 annually
Location: Omaha, NE and Council Bluffs, IA Metro
Job Type: Full-Time
Steady work, strong earning potential, and the opportunity to do more than just clear drains.
American Rooter Plumbing is hiring a Drain Technician to handle residential drain calls, diagnose issues, and help homeowners fully resolve recurring problems. This is a hands-on service role focused on identifying root causes and doing the job right, not just quick fixes.
You'll have consistent call volume, the ability to earn based on your performance, and the opportunity to grow your skills into more advanced plumbing work over time.
Why This Role Stands Out
Respond to residential drain service calls throughout the Omaha and Council Bluffs metro, clearing lines, diagnosing underlying issues, and identifying root causes of recurring problems. You'll evaluate the overall condition of the plumbing system and provide clear, honest recommendations when additional repairs or upgrades are needed. This role focuses on solving problems the right way while delivering a professional, high-quality customer experience. You will document your work in ServiceTitan, communicate with the office team, and manage your calls efficiently throughout the day.
What We're Looking For
Experience in drain cleaning or residential plumbing is required. You should have strong troubleshooting skills and the ability to identify underlying issues beyond the immediate blockage. Candidates should be comfortable communicating with homeowners, explaining findings clearly, and working independently in the field. Organization, follow-through, and professionalism are key to success in this role. Experience with ServiceTitan or similar software is a plus. A valid driver's license and clean driving record are required.
Who Succeeds Here
Candidates will be required to pass a background check and drug test upon being given a conditional offer of employment.
