Residential Plumbing Services

Modern plumbing is a true engineering marvel, offering us the luxuries of hot and cold running water, dependable showers, and the comfort of reliable flushing toilets. We often take these conveniences for granted, only realizing how intricate our plumbing systems are when an issue arises. 

Roto-Rooter provides fast, professional residential plumbing service when you need it most. Our experienced plumbers can fix any plumbing problem, including:

  • Leak repairs

  • Drain cleaning and unclogging

  • Water heater maintenance

  • Sewer line inspections and repairs

  • Garbage disposal repairs and replacement

  • Sump pump replacement

  • Pipe restoration and excavation

  • Water damage cleanup

Commercial Plumbing Services

Office, restaurant, and industrial plumbing differs from residential plumbing in size, complexity, and usage. A drain in a bustling restaurant kitchen handles far more water volume than a typical home's drain. Commercial toilets and urinals boast powerful flushometer systems to serve more patrons, and the plumbing in a large office sees more action in a single day than residential systems do in months.

At Roto-Rooter, we're not just any plumbers; we're commercial plumbing experts. We know that a plumbing issue in a commercial setting can disrupt operations, leading to lost productivity and unhappy customers. That's why we offer an array of plumbing services designed for Tacoma's commercial facilities, including:

  • Toilet and urinal flushometers

  • Commercial sink faucets and drains

  • Backflow inspection and repair

  • High-pressure water jetting (hydro-jetting)

  • Scheduled drain maintenance programs

  • Installing industrial appliances to existing plumbing systems

  • Same-day plumbing repair services

  • Grease trap repairs and maintenance

  • Gas line installation and maintenance

  • Commercial pump repair and replacement

  • Water heater maintenance, repair, and installation

  • Industrial pipe restoration and excavation

Commercial plumbing systems may include hot and chilled water, potable and nonpotable water. Dealing with such intricate systems requires specialized tools and experience. Roto-Rooter's seasoned commercial plumbers in Tacoma, WA, use the latest commercial and residential plumbing equipment to ensure your plumbing operates efficiently.

Whether it's a pesky buildup of hair, stubborn grease, sticky soap residue, or foreign objects causing the obstruction, Roto-Rooter plumbers in Tacoma will unclog and thoroughly clean your drains from end to end.

Sewer Line Services in Tacoma

Commercial and residential sewer lines perform the same service: removing wastewater from sinks, toilets, and similar water-using fixtures or appliances. The sewer line on your property plays a pivotal role, channeling this wastewater into Tacoma's municipal sewage system and redirecting it to water treatment facilities. 

Roto-Rooter offers a wide range of sewer line services in Tacoma, including:

  • Sewer line cleaning: Regular sewer line cleanings help prevent clogs and backups. Roto-Rooter's experienced plumbers in Tacoma use state-of-the-art equipment to remove debris from the length of your sewer line, restoring full drainage and reducing the risk of future problems.

  • Sewer line repair: Roto-Rooter repairs damaged sewer lines using conventional excavation or trenchless methods. Trenchless excavation methods are minimally invasive and can be completed without digging up your yard.

  • Sewer line replacement: If your sewer line is beyond repair, Roto-Rooter will replace it with a new PVC pipeline that will provide decades of reliable service. 

In addition to our sewer line services, Roto-Rooter offers water damage cleanup services. If sewage has overflowed into your home or business, our team will remove wastewater promptly and clean up the damage left behind. We also disinfect, dehumidify, and dry areas affected by sewage to reduce the risk of mold growth.

Contact Roto-Rooter today for a consultation. We will happily assess your sewer line needs and recommend as many options as possible. 

Water Heater Repairs and Installations

Water heater repairs rank high among the reasons people need Tacoma plumbing services. The average lifespan of a conventional water heater is 11 years, with tankless models lasting a few years longer, but you can extend your heater’s working life with regular maintenance. Call us if you notice any of the following water heater warning signs: 

  • Hot water supply runs out quickly

  • Leaks around the base

  • Temperature & pressure relief valve is ejecting water

  • Strange noises from the water heater

  • Pilot light won’t stay lit 

  • Discolored hot water

  • Water heater runs more often

Many of these signs indicate problems caused by hard water minerals accumulating in the tank. Mineral deposits in a water tank can corrode anode rods, cause heating element and tank failure. Our experienced Tacoma plumbers understand the many causes of water heater problems. We repair all types of water heaters, including conventional and tankless models, both gas and electric. Our Tacoma plumbers also replace and install water heaters.

Mike and Zack were excellent! They helped make our huge problems seem very small. We had quite the water leak and had severe water damage in our downstairs basement. ... It all had to be ripped out, dried, and now has to be reconstructed. But these guys have made all of this seem very manageable. They come in with respect, they do their job, and they answer all of our questions. They were very professional in removing the damaged material, and even removed personal property that had been damaged for us for free. We cannot thank them enough for all of their generosity and hard work. I will definitely recommend Roto Rooter for anyone out there! Especially my neighbors and family! From Efran, who helped remove our clog and was so helpful and nice, to Shannon the project coordinator who took care of the damage and job that had to be done, to these amazing guys, we are very satisfied with this company and will go to no one else from here on out. Thank you again!
