Is Drain Cleaning a Rooter Service?
Rooter service is a common word for clog repairs that consist of cleaning out drains, sewer lines and mending pipes. Because tree roots were the leading cause of drain and pipe difficulties, this term was used to describe the method of repairing these issues. Plumbing issues in this day are beyond rooter service; they include the removal of stubborn clogs, repairing slow drainage issues, and much more.
The Hot Jet Advantage
Cable Equipment
Cable equipment is very effective at removing a clog, however cabling leaves tons of uncleaned surfaces. These uncleaned surfaces lead to premature line buildup and blockage over time.
Hot Water Jetting
Water jetting does an excellent job of clearing pipes. Hot water scours and breaks down the grease film inside the pipes. Combined with a degreasing agent, it removes more grease build-up and blockage.
Do I Need a drain cleaning Service?
Some of the most common reasons that you need to contact a professional for rooter service include:
- Multiple drains all backing up at the same time
- Slow removing waste, gurgling toilets, sluggish or not draining at all
- Frequent plunging, snaking or use of drain clearing products
- Wastewater backups in one plumbing fixture after you have finished using it (for example, wastewater that has backed up in your tub after flushing)
- Any water backups that flood your home
If you have ANY of these warning signs, then it is time to call for our drain cleaning service. The truth is that clogs and sewer line problems DO NOT fix themselves. In fact, they only get worse with time. Clean now to prevent the problem from deteriorating your lines and costing you more down the line.

WHAT TO DO TO PREPARE FOR DRAIN CLEANING SERVICE
Preparing for our technicians before we come to your home to clean your drains will help ensure the service goes as smoothly as possible:
- Make sure the path from the front door to the access point is clear: To allow the space needed for equipment and technician, this path needs to be at least 3 feet wide.
- Move items away from the affected fixtures and point of entry: The technician will need easy access to these fixtures, so please take all personal items away from these areas, including items under sinks with clogs.
- Remove sewage waste: If there are several inches of sewage in the work area, please contact a remediation company to have them remove the sewage before your technician arrives. Diagnosing the problem may not be possible if the point of entry is covered in sewage.
- Be aware that having the drain cleaned may not be a permanent solution: If you have a damaged pipe or your sewer system gets heavy use then drain cleaning may not be a permanent solution. Defects in your plumbing that impact the flow of sewage are cumulative and will ultimately lead to sewer system failure. Also, consistent abuse of your sewer systems will produce continuous stoppages and may contribute to pipe damage.
