      Expert Drain Cleaning in Boston

      Boston's vibrant seasons mean leaves in autumn and snow in winter, both of which can challenge your drains. Add that to the everyday strain of hair, grease, and soap scum, and drains can easily become clogged. When a clog isn’t dealt with right away, it can cause unpleasant odors, mold growth, or even pest infestations — so every home and business owner needs a reliable plumbing company in Boston to deal with drain clogs.

      Roto-Rooter is the first name in drain maintenance, with a history that goes back to our founding. In 1935, our founder Samuel Blanc invented the first modern drain-clearing tool, and today we put state-of-the-art technology to work in cleaning out the most difficult clogs. Don't let minor blockages escalate; our plumbing services in Boston are just a call or online contact away.

      Sewer Line Services in Boston

      Homeowners and business owners alike dread the thought of sewer line troubles. A backed-up sewer line can threaten both your property and your health — so when the worst happens, you need Roto-Rooter’s skilled Boston plumbers on speed dial.

      In a city as old as Boston, sewer line troubles are unfortunately common. Water infrastructure can easily date back a hundred years or more, and Boston’s many old trees have deep-reaching roots that often invade older sewer lines. Once these roots are inside a sewer pipe, they can spread out until they’re completely blocking whatever flows through. The foul mess is practically impossible to clear out without the expertise of a qualified Boston plumber — which is where we come in.

      Whether it's a simple blockage clearing or a full-scale sewer line replacement, Roto-Rooter's expert team ensures swift and effective solutions, keeping the city's charm intact and its sewers flowing smoothly. Contact us today and schedule your expert sewer line service from Roto-Rooter.

      Water Heater Repairs in Boston

      Boston's chilly winters demand hot showers and warm homes, and any malfunction in your water heater can disrupt this comfort. Certain water heater problems can even be dangerous, such as leaky natural gas pipes or blocked vents that can discharge carbon monoxide.

      Call Roto-Rooter if you notice any of these water heater warning signs: 

      • Hot water supply runs out quickly
      • Uneven water temperature
      • Leaks or water stains around the base
      • Low water pressure
      • Strange noises from the water heater
      • Discolored hot water
      • Natural gas odors around the water heater

      Roto-Rooter helps Bostonians enjoy their winter evenings with prompt 24/7 water heater service. We offer a full range of water heater repair and replacement options — and you can learn about them all by contacting Roto-Rooter’s plumbing professionals today.

      Boston, MA

      Had a bad main sewer pipe backup into my finished basment/music studio. Tree roots were removed and pipe scoped by camera. The tech was fantastic, knowledgeable, courteous and ... helpful. I used RR for the water mitigation. Tom was the lead man. He came out and did everything needed to be done so as to give me information as to what was needed and how it would work out. Again, he was fantastic in every way. Plumber came that evening to take out toilet in basement bathroom so the tech crew could start their work. Very nice guy too. Tech crew showed up the next morning. Jay was head tech with three other techs. They did a great job! Professional, courteous, cleaned up everything and took away all contaminated items. Left the proper equipment to air out/dehumidify the room and ionize the air. You turned a major disaster into a manageable, clean and room for me to put back together. Kudos to the whole team. I have already recommended you to my friends for all their plumbing/mitigation needs. Thanx Again, Jay

      Boston, MA

      My first time ever calling a plumber. Gilbert came out, acessed the clog in the main sewer drain line and fixed in in about an hour. Let me watch and ... showed me the steps as he went. Explained what was going on as he was running the machine. Saved the materials that were clogging the pipe so I could understand why I was having an issue. Most of all, he cleaned up the entire area, more than where he was just working before leaving. I couldn't be happier with the service, if I need service again, I will surely ask for Gilbert before just asking for a plumber. A+ service!
