“We were in a pinch when our kitchen sink stopped up on a Saturday evening of a HOLIDAY WEEKEND with several out of town guests staying with us. We needed to get the kitchen sink unclogged as soon as possible so I called Bienvenu Brothers Plumbing and they went above and beyond what I expected. They arrived on time, were professional and courteous, answered all of our questions, and most importantly got our sink working again! I highly recommend Bienvenu for ALL your plumbing needs!”

Frequently Asked Questions

Bio-Clean is a professional-grade drain treatment that uses a blend of natural bacteria and enzymes to digest organic waste inside your plumbing system. The bacteria consume grease, soap scum, food particles, hair, and other organic material that accumulates inside pipes and drain lines. Unlike chemical drain cleaners, Bio-Clean works with your plumbing rather than against it.
Yes. Bio-Clean contains no harsh chemicals, acids, or caustic agents. It is completely safe for all pipe materials including copper, PVC, cast iron, and galvanized steel. It will not corrode pipe walls or degrade rubber gaskets and seals. Chemical drain cleaners, by contrast, can damage older pipe materials and seals over time.
Chemical drain cleaners use caustic or acidic ingredients to dissolve blockages temporarily. They do not remove the buildup lining the pipe walls. Bio-Clean uses living bacteria to consume and digest organic material, cleaning the entire interior of the pipe progressively over time. The result is a more thorough and lasting drain maintenance effect.
Bio-Clean is mixed with warm water and poured down the drain at night when the plumbing will not be used for several hours. This allows the bacteria to colonize and feed on organic buildup without being flushed away. Bienvenu Brothers provides application instructions with every Bio-Clean treatment service.
Initial results are typically noticed within a few days to a couple of weeks as the bacteria population establishes and begins consuming buildup. For heavily clogged or slow drains, Bienvenu Brothers recommends a professional drain cleaning first followed by Bio-Clean maintenance to prevent recurrence.
Bio-Clean is a maintenance and prevention product rather than a replacement for mechanical drain clearing. A completely blocked drain requires professional snaking or hydro jetting first. After clearing, Bio-Clean prevents the organic buildup that leads to recurring clogs.
Yes. Bio-Clean is highly beneficial for septic systems. The bacteria in Bio-Clean supplement the natural microbial activity in the septic tank, helping to break down solids more effectively and extending the time between pumping cycles. Many homeowners use Bio-Clean specifically to improve septic system performance.
Yes. Drain odors are typically caused by decomposing organic material in the pipe. As Bio-Clean bacteria consume this material, odors are eliminated at their source rather than masked. This makes it particularly effective for kitchen drains and garbage disposal odors.
After an initial treatment period of one to four weeks depending on drain condition, a monthly maintenance application keeps bacteria populations active and prevents buildup from returning. Bienvenu Brothers can set up a maintenance schedule appropriate for your specific drains.
Yes. Kitchen drain grease is one of the primary targets for Bio-Clean bacteria. Grease accumulation in kitchen drain lines is a major cause of slow drains and eventual blockages. Regular Bio-Clean application prevents grease from accumulating to the point where blockages develop.
Yes. Bienvenu Brothers supplies Bio-Clean as part of our drain maintenance program throughout the Metairie and greater New Orleans area. Call [phone] to inquire about purchasing Bio-Clean as a standalone product or as part of a drain maintenance service.
Yes. Bio-Clean is effective in any drain that collects organic material including floor drains, utility sink drains, laundry drains, and area drains. These drains frequently collect organic debris and benefit significantly from regular Bio-Clean treatment.
Bio-Clean is non-toxic and safe for household use. The bacteria used are naturally occurring, non-pathogenic organisms. However, as with any plumbing product, it should be stored away from children and pets and used as directed.
Yes. Bio-Clean bacteria will colonize and work throughout the drain and sewer system downstream of where it is applied. For main sewer line maintenance, applying Bio-Clean through a toilet or main cleanout allows bacteria to reach a larger section of the system.
Bio-Clean bacteria function best at temperatures above 50 degrees Fahrenheit. In Louisiana's climate, indoor plumbing temperatures rarely fall below this threshold. Cold water from the tap may temporarily slow bacterial activity, which is why nighttime application, when hot water residue has cooled slightly but ambient temperature remains adequate, is recommended.
Regular Bio-Clean use significantly reduces the frequency of professional drain cleaning. However, annual or biennial professional drain cleaning is still recommended for main sewer lines to address any mineral scale, root intrusion, or inorganic buildup that bacteria cannot digest. Bio-Clean handles organic maintenance; professional service handles structural issues.
Bienvenu Brothers recommends Bio-Clean as a follow-up maintenance product after a professional drain cleaning. Once the line is mechanically cleared, Bio-Clean prevents organic buildup from returning, extending the time between service calls. We provide Bio-Clean with instructions following applicable drain cleaning visits.
No. Bio-Clean bacteria cannot digest tree root material. Root intrusion requires mechanical removal through snaking, hydro jetting, or sewer line repair. Bienvenu Brothers offers root destroyer treatments as a separate chemical root control solution that is compatible with Bio-Clean maintenance.
Yes. Bathroom drain buildup of hair and soap scum is primarily organic material that Bio-Clean bacteria digest effectively. For heavily clogged bathroom drains, a mechanical clearing is recommended first, followed by ongoing Bio-Clean maintenance.
Yes. Bio-Clean is widely used in commercial kitchen drain maintenance. Commercial kitchens generate large volumes of grease that accumulate in drains quickly. Regular Bio-Clean application in conjunction with periodic professional grease trap service is an effective commercial drain management strategy.
Bienvenu Brothers provides Bio-Clean supply and drain maintenance services throughout Metairie, Kenner, New Orleans, River Ridge, Jefferson, Gretna, Harvey, and all surrounding communities in the greater New Orleans metro area.
No. Bio-Clean bacteria work inside the pipe walls and do not affect the water flowing through the pipe for drinking or household use. The bacteria are consumed with use and do not accumulate in your water supply.
The amount depends on the number of drains being treated and the initial condition of the pipes. Bienvenu Brothers provides appropriate quantities and instructions when supplying Bio-Clean as part of a drain maintenance service.
It is best to wait at least 24 to 48 hours after using a chemical drain cleaner before applying Bio-Clean. Residual chemical cleaner in the pipe can kill the bacteria before they establish. Flushing drains thoroughly with water before applying Bio-Clean improves effectiveness after chemical treatment.
Bio-Clean is a highly effective ongoing maintenance solution rather than a one-time fix. As long as applications are made on a monthly schedule, bacteria populations remain active and organic buildup is continuously digested. Stopping treatment allows buildup to return over time.
Bio-Clean contains a higher concentration of both bacteria and enzymes than typical retail enzyme products. The bacterial strains used are specifically selected for their ability to digest the types of organic material found in plumbing systems. Retail products vary widely in quality and bacterial concentration.
No. Bio-Clean is applied and left to work overnight without requiring any attention. The bacteria work independently and do not require monitoring. The only requirement is that drains are not heavily used for several hours after application.
Yes. Contact Bienvenu Brothers at [phone] to discuss a drain maintenance program that combines periodic professional drain cleaning with Bio-Clean between service visits. This approach provides the most reliable protection against drain problems.
A completely blocked drain requires professional mechanical clearing before Bio-Clean can be used effectively. Call Bienvenu Brothers at [phone] to schedule a drain cleaning service. After the line is cleared, we can set you up with a Bio-Clean maintenance program to prevent the problem from returning.
We have been solving drain problems in the New Orleans area since 1937. Bio-Clean is the most effective enzyme and bacteria-based drain maintenance product we have found for preventing organic buildup recurrence between professional service visits. Our BBB A+ rating and 89 years in business reflect our commitment to recommending only products and services that genuinely benefit our customers.
