Emergency Services (I Need Help NOW)

24 Hour Emergency Services We have technicians available 7 DAYS a WEEK so chances are very good that we can get out to you quickly. We successfully complete over 10,000 service calls a year and that is more than 200 in an average week. We welcome the opportunity to add you to our growing list of satisfied customers.   Sewer Line Cleaning (We also provide Sewer Line Repair or Replacement) At Roto-Rooter we don’t just break up the clog or poke a hole through it, we clean the line right to the sewer walls using our razor scraping technology. We use this approach because it’s a much more effective way to clean the drain line and reduces the risk of having the clog re-appear. There is a right and a wrong way to do everything. If the sewer line is not completely cleared of the clog it can quickly back up and you will end up calling to have it cleaned again. Many other drain cleaning companies simply break up the clog by poking a hole in it to get the water flowing again but this will almost always lead to future backups and further costly service calls.   Septic Tank Cleaning and Repair If your septic tank is backed up or just in need of periodic service, we will pump your tank or system and take the waste to an approved treatment facility. We are fully versed and licensed in the appropriate environmental regulations and laws regarding septic tank waste. If your system needs repair, we have all the equipment needed to properly complete the excavation. We can repair or replace damaged septic tanks and drainage field pipes.   Drain Cleaning for Sinks, Floor Drains and Showers Many drain cleaning companies simply “poke a hole” in your clog to get the drain open. Unfortunately, this will only provide a temporary fix to your problem. That is why they don’t guarantee their drain cleaning service for any length of time. There is a better way. We don’t just poke a hole in the clog, we clean out the entire clog using our razor scraping technology AND we back up our service with our iron clad guarantee.   Drain Cleaning for Kitchen and Break Room Sink Lines Kitchen and break room sink lines will clog over time due to the amount of food, grease, soaps and other debris that build up on the inner walls of the plumbing lines. Because of the normal build up in these lines our razor scraping technology is ideal to clean these pipes to the walls of your drain lines. Our approach and if you follow the helpful tips we provide, you should have clean running drains for years. A company that doesn’t clean the circumference of your drain lines will only be making a temporary fix to the problem. With all the debris that typically go down your kitchen drain each day, you will likely end up calling them again in just a matter of months instead of years.   Video Camera Inspection of Any Sewer Line or Drain Line Video cameras are now a virtual requirement for every plumbing and drain cleaning company. They help Roto-Rooter make a much more accurate assessment of your lines. The camera records the depth and location of the blockages or structural issues. It also eliminates the guesswork in clearing lines or identifies the underlying cause of the frequent back ups. Knowing where the blockage or structural issue is and being able to show the owner where it is, allows us to quickly provide the solution to the drainage issue. The video camera can also help us locate jewelry and other valuables that were lost in the drains. Companies without video technology are basically guessing what your problem is and where it is.   Water Line Repairs & Installations Wheather you have a small leak or a complete water main break, our service technicians are ready to solve the issue. Anything from copper water mains to ductile iron piping we can diagnose and repair immediately.   Commercial Hot Water Heaters Most plumbers know that you will be in a bit of a panic when in need a new water heater. They take advantage of the customer and sell something that makes them more money rather than providing you with options. At Roto-Rooter we don’t work that way. We will quickly shut off the water source if it is still running and then review your needs before making any recommendations. We know that this approach created lifetime customers for us and we prefer that to making a quick buck. Our plumbers are well versed about commercial and tankless water heaters. All water heaters are not created equal and price is rarely the best way to select. Our plumbers will provide you all the information on annual cost, energy consumption, how they are insulated and the capacity so you can make the best decision.     Sewer Line Repairs and Replacement If you have any of the following issues with your sewer line we can help with this stressful problem: Broken, cracked or collapsed pipe – this can be caused by freezing temperatures, shifts in the soil, settling, construction damage and more. Blockages – Heavy root intrusion, grease, soaps, or foreign objects can most of the time be removed, but sometimes require pipe replacement. Corrosion – this can lead to the line collapsing or leaks. Bellied pipe – shifting ground or soil conditions can cause a section of the pipe to sink and it becomes a natural collection area that eventually can block the whole line or cause frequent back ups. Leaking joints – if the seals break, water will be leaking out and that can lead to bigger problems like bellied pipes. Root infiltration – roots can invade your line and cause backups.   We have over 30 years of experience helping area business owners with sewer line repairs and replacement. Our video camera inspection system is especially effective at pinpointing the problem and the depth at which the problem is at. Depending on the type of problem we diagnose, Roto-Rooter may be able to perform the repair without damaging your lawn or yard. This is sometimes accomplished using pipe relining. This involves creating “a pipe within your existing pipe” and in effect replaces your existing pipe.   High Velocity Water Jetting We use high velocity water jetting to clear debris from lines and to help clean out stubborn clogs. Our high pressure water jet can reach upwards of 4000 psi and provide the brute force to clear even the toughest clogs. Jetting can be effective in pipes ranging in size from 1” to 24” in diameter.     Sewage or Grinder Ejector Pump Repairs or Replacement Sewage ejector/grinder pumps are a common system for commercial and industrial businesses. Roto-Rooter service technicians are fully trained and versed on all models and sizes of pumps. Our vast inventory of pumps allows us to complete the job quickly and efficiently so there is little downtime. At Roto-Rooter we can quickly diagnose the issue with your ejector/grinder pump and either repair the pump or replace it if necessary. Roto-Rooter technicians are confined space certified.   Main and Backup Sump Pump Repair and Replacement The time to replace or repair your sump pump is before you have a flood in the basement, office area, or mechanical room. We can test your sump pump and show you how to test it yourself. We recommend that once we have tested your sump pump and if it is in good working order, that you test it at least every 6 months to avoid potential disasters. If the pump, however, is worn out or in need of repair Roto-Rooter will provide only the best and most reliable cast iron pumps available. Roto-Rooter makes the recommendation that you test it every 6 months because there are no specific guidelines on how long sump pumps will last. Their operation can be compromised by spiders, debris, dirt, etc. The only way to know the pump is still working is to test them. It is also a smart idea to have a battery backup system installed in case your power or main sump pump fails. Roto-Rooter technicians can provide you with all the facts and the relevant alternatives so you can make an informed decision.   Grease Trap Pumping And Cleaning Roto-Rooter has all the tools and equipment to clean your grease trap and grease trap drain lines. Whether your business has a small interceptor grease trap that requires our compact portable pumping unit or a large 5000 gallon grease trap located outside that requires our pumping truck, we can handle it. Roto-Rooter can assure your business or restaurant prompt, discreet service at a time that is convenient for you

Non-Emergency/Maintenance Services

Toilet Repairs Clogs and running toilets are one of the most common repairs we complete for our customers. Clearing clogs is similar to clearing any drain or line blockage. Clogs can sometimes be the result of larger problems like something stuck in the trap or further down the line. We won’t just “poke a hole” in the problem like many of our competitors that will do a quick fix, we will clean out the entire line so that it runs freely again. Running toilets are not only annoying but they are expensive and waste precious water resources. Most repairs are straightforward and can be accomplished in under an hour. Whether it’s an old flushometer or a new age automatic flushing toilet we will have the parts and knowledge to make the repair.   Fix Dripping/Leaky Faucets or Showers Dripping faucets or showers are one of the most annoying plumbing problems for most businesses. At Roto-Rooter we can quickly and easily replace your worn out parts to make your faucets work like new and if they can’t be repaired, we can replace them. Often, it is more economical to replace the faucet rather than try to repair it, but not always. Leaking showers can be a bigger issue especially if the leak is behind walls or under the floor. We will diagnose the problem and give you the facts you need to make an informed decision on what your choices are. If you do have a leak behind a wall or in the floor, you will need to take steps to fix it because even if we prevent future leaking, mold can grow and lead to much bigger health concerns.   Replace Water Lines or Valves to Toilet If you have a leaking water line or valve to the toilet it can cause much bigger problems than just wasting water. Most repairs are straightforward and can be accomplished in under an hour. We can also replace your old toilet with a more efficient model. If your toilet was manufactured before 1994 – it typically will use about 3.5 gallons per flush. The newest designs use only 1.6 gallons per flush. We can show you how much this can save you on a typical year.   Replace Worn Faucets & Fixtures IFaucets have moving parts that will wear out. Dripping or leaking faucets and fixtures are annoying but you don’t have to live with the problem. At Roto-Rooter we can quickly and easily replace your worn out parts to make your faucets work like new and if they can’t be repaired we can replace them. Often, it is more economical to replace the faucet rather than try to repair it, but not always.   Repair/Change Out Water Shut Off Valves The time to replace your shut off valves is not when the water is spraying out all over the place. At Roto-Rooter this is one of the preventative measures we suggest for our customers. Whether your business has small ½” valves that are in need of replacement or large 12” OSY valves, our Roto-Rooter technicians can handle it. We will conduct a quick inspection of all of your shut off valves and if they are all in good shape you can sleep at night. If some need replacing we can complete the job quickly so you can sleep at night. In this case an “ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure”.   Electronic Pipe Location At Roto-Rooter we have the equipment to locate pipes, map out the direction of the pipe, locate structural issues with the pipes and determine their depths. Our technology allows us to pinpoint breaks, separations, collapsing pipes, or buried lines that need to be mapped out. Our technology is also very useful in locating septic tank lines to distribution boxes and leaching fields.   Replace Old Pipes It is often a smart approach to replace older cast iron and galvanized pipes if you are having other plumbing work done that will affect those pipes. After years of use these older metal pipes can corrode and develop rotted pot marks that leak. Newer plastic PVC materials are non-corrosive and bring a level of strength and durability that the old pipes can’t provide. Like all repairs, before we ever make the recommendation to replace your old pipes our Roto-Rooter technicians will provide you with all of the facts and the relevant alternatives so you can make an informed decision.   Valve Tagging This is one of the simplest and smartest things Roto-Rooter can do for you. We can give you a tour of your business or office and show you where all the key shutoffs are. Our technicians can then clearly label them so you will know where they are in an emergency.   Repair Services We realize that in many cases you might be in a bit of a panic and be inclined to make a quick decision in hiring a plumber especially if your drain is backed up or your toilet is overflowing or your pipes are leaking.
