Homeowners across Tacoma trust our efficient, low-disruption approach to sewer repair.

The customer service was wonderful. I felt that my issue was given great consideration wherein other companies acted like my problem was not important and tried to schedule me ... a week out. I felt that my satisfaction was important to the technician and company. If I have other issues in the future, I will definitely be calling them again. Thank you!
Awesome job today and I know we can always rely on your company.
Chris R.Mike, Miles, and Paul did a super job. It was a difficult job replacing all the galvanized piping and correcting the sewer lines. Great job. I would recommend these guys ... for any plumbing work needed.

Frequently Asked Questions in Tacoma
Is Tacoma's water quality safe for my plumbing?
Tacoma's municipal water is generally soft and safe, but older pipes can introduce rust or sediment. Regular maintenance and pipe upgrades help maintain optimal water quality and system performance.
Do I need permits for plumbing work in Tacoma?
Major repairs, water heater replacements, and remodeling projects typically require city permits and inspections. Roto-Rooter handles all permit applications and compliance requirements, saving you administrative headaches.
What causes sewer backups in Tacoma?
Tree root infiltration from mature landscaping, aging infrastructure, and Pacific Northwest rainfall are the primary causes. Regular inspections and preventive maintenance help avoid costly emergency situations.
Why does water pressure fluctuate in Tacoma's hills?
Tacoma's steep terrain creates natural pressure variations, while aging pipes in older neighborhoods worsen the issue. Pressure regulators and targeted pipe replacements in problem areas stabilize flow throughout your home.
