Get Help With a Plumbing Emergency in Davis
You do not have to diagnose the failure before contacting us. Tell us which room or fixture is affected, when it started and anything you can see without entering an unsafe area.
The immediate priority is to limit ongoing water release where it is safe to do so. We investigate the plumbing, discuss access for the repair and explain the recommended work. If water has already damaged the building, mention that too so the cleanup needs can be discussed.

Sewer Backups and Davis City Response
The City of Davis asks residents to report sewer backups so its crews can check the portions of the system they maintain. An overflow does not automatically establish that the problem is inside your home's plumbing.
Roto-Rooter can address the private plumbing side of the problem. Tell the team if you have already contacted the city or received information about the public sewer; that helps keep the next step focused.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to enter the wet room to shut off water?
No. Do not enter an unsafe area to reach a valve. Stay clear and tell the responding team that the supply is still on.
Can I request a visit after I stop the leak?
Yes. A shutoff may limit further release, but the failed plumbing still needs assessment and repair before normal use resumes. Explain what was shut off when booking.
Can you investigate water appearing behind a wall?
Roto-Rooter can assess suspected plumbing leaks and explain the access required to locate the source. Do not open a wet wall yourself near wiring or other hazards.
Who should I notify about sewage coming up outside?
Report a sewer backup to the City of Davis so it can assess the city-maintained system. Keep clear of the wastewater and describe the location when also requesting private plumbing help.
What should I say when calling about an emergency?
Describe the escaping water or backup, the affected fixtures and any immediate hazards. Tell the team if you have safely shut off a supply or stopped using the fixtures.
