Q: What is the response time for a plumbing emergency in Minneapolis?

Roto-Rooter's response time for a Minneapolis plumbing emergency is dependent on whether the emergency is confined to one household/building or to the entire community. Roto-Rooter is available 24/7 to handle plumbing emergencies, and in most cases, a Roto-Rooter service technician will arrive at your home or business within two hours of your call. But if the entire community is dealing with flooding or water problems as the result of a storm or natural disaster, then Roto-Rooter's response time will be longer because Roto-Rooter service technicians will be handling emergency plumbing calls in the order in which they were received.

Water Heater Repairs and Installations

If you notice any of these warning signs, give us a call:

Strange Noises: Suggest sediment buildup, a faulty heating element, or a leak.
Discolored Hot Water: Rust or contaminants could be affecting your water.
Frequent Water Heater Operation: May indicate sediment buildup or a malfunctioning component.

Roto-Rooter’s experienced Minneapolis plumbing technicians service all types of water heaters, including traditional, tankless, and solar models.

Water Softener and Filtration

Minneapolis has moderately soft water as the city has a water-softening plant. People using well water may have harder water. Minerals in hard water accumulate in water pipes and appliances, reducing water flow and causing damage. Hard water used for bathing dries skin and leaves hair looking limp. Roto-Rooter installs and services water softeners, which alleviate the damaging qualities of hard water.

Types of water softeners

Salt-based water softeners
Salt-free water softeners
Dual-tank water softeners
Magnetic water softeners
Reverse osmosis water softeners
Shower head water softeners

Minneapolis's water supply comes from the Mississippi River and meets all federal and state safety standards. Despite this, trace amounts of chlorine and ammonia may persist after water treatment, sometimes giving local water an unpleasant “swimming pool” taste. A water filtration system helps ensure your home or business's best possible water quality.

Types of filtration systems

Activated carbon
Ion exchange
Reverse osmosis
Mechanical
Ultraviolet
