Jamel Robinson responded to our Saturday afternoon call for a plumbing problem at our home in Manassas, after we were unable to get other plumbing companies to respond to our calls until the following Monday. We had sewage backed up into our house, which had begun to overflow into the bathroom and needed an immediate response.
Jamel assessed the situation gave us an estimate and went to work right away. While he was running the snake through the sewage line , we heard a very loud pop that broke his cable. While the line was clear and water was flowing through the pipe he called Craig Webb to come out and check the line with a camera. Craig showed up shortly after and ran the camera through the line. He found that roots were growing into the line. He and Jamel explained the situation to my wife and I and prepared an estimate to repair the sewer line.
We were so impressed with the outstanding service we received and the absolute professionalism of Jamel and Craig and used them to complete the additional job. By Tuesday, the area was excavated and the pipe was repaired. I was impressed with the professionalism of the entire Roto-Rooter Plumbing crew.
You can be assured that the next time we need a Manassas, Virginia plumber, Roto-Rooter will be our first call. We will also highly recommend the Virginia plumbers of Roto-Rooter for their outstanding plumbing services to our friends and neighbors.

Here is a sampling of what one of our customers recently wrote in about a few plumbing problems they had been having:
The Woodbridge, Virginia Plumbers of Roto-Rooter did an excellent job unclogging my tub drain. Their plumber, Mr. Devon Houston, was on time and very courteous. Not only did he fix my drain, he removed a screw that I broke while trying to get the cover off of the upper drain in my tub. Devon also gave me a drain filter to prevent future clogs. My service is guaranteed for one year and I paid about $150 less than a competitors quote. WOW!!! Five Stars for Roto-Rooter Plumbing of Woodbridge!

Clogged drains are quite a common service call for the Raleigh plumbers here at Roto-Rooter and we are fully aware of the issues that can arise from clogs. When liquid drain cleaners fail to eliminate a clog, the next option is to use a snake. People can end up spending a lot of money on liquid products or blow bags, which will sometimes clear a clog, but typically only lead to a temporary fix.
A snake will scrape the clog, grind up and push out whatever is blocking the main line. Once you are able to clean it completely, you can maintain the drain by using an enzyme cleaner that eats away at soap, grease and
hair; our Roto Rooter Pipe Shield is highly recommended.
The Raleigh plumbers of Roto-Rooter are more than willing and able to assist you with this or any other plumbing or drain problem. Feel free to visit our Web site for more information.
A Raleigh plumbing customer recently wrote in to inquire about a plumbing problem they have been having with their toilet:
“I always have to hold down on the handle for my toilet to flush, why is this happening/can this be fixed?”
You are in luck, the answer is simple and this issue can be easily fixed. The chain connected to the flapper is too long. The chain should be no longer than ½ an inch longer than the handle arm at rest.
How to fix:
When the handle trip lever is all the way down on the inside of the toilet, remove the chain and hold it alongside the trip lever arm. Then, move the clip from the chain (fits in the holes of the trip lever) so it does not rise more than ½ an inch above the arm. Re-attach and flush to ensure that it is working properly.
If this does not work, the flapper is most likely water logged or broken. In either case, it will need to be replaced.

Any Raleigh plumber will assure you that septic systems can last a lifetime with the proper care. Here are some maintenance tips below:
- Keep trees and brush at least 100 feet away from the drain field to ensure proper flow and functionality
- Use a root destroyer on a yearly basis to prevent roots from interfering with your septic system
- Get your septic tank pumped every two years to remove any buildup of grease and/ or other dense matter that could prevent the drain field from draining well
Other beneficial recommendations would be to utilize low flow aerators in your faucets, low flow toilets, low flow shower heads and a water saver washer, which in general, lessen water usage. Using less water will most definitely have a positive impact on your septic system and will help prolong its life as well.

New construction in Westbury has caused plumbing problems at a commercial customer's location, which will require using our high power jet. After doing a camera inspection on the main line, it seems the contractor used duct tape on the joints of the pipes and although that could be normal practice for the contractor, some of that tape is working its way through the joints causing the lines to backup. Our recommendation to the customer is to high power jet the line to try to clear most of the tape and other debris out of the line.
If you are experiencing a similar issue, high power jetting could be your solution and the Roto-Rooter New York plumbers are more than capable of assisting you. Feel free to call us at 516-785-6398 to schedule service at your convenience.

Roto-Rooter does a lot of local plumbing jobs in a given month. As the number one Northern Virginia plumbers, we do our best to satisfy our customers but often we can't know whether a customer is pleased unless he or she takes the time to tell us about their service experience. We received a letter recently that I'd like to share:
Mr. Jamel Robinson, Roto-Rooter of Northern Virginia Plumbing Technician, should be commended for the excellent job at our residence in Falls Church Virginia on August 17th and 18th. Conditions were bad: high heat, humidity, and gnats. But Mr. Robinson managed the plumbing job very professionally. The next time we need a Northern Virginia plumbing company, we will contact Roto-Rooter and ask for Jamel Robinson.

Did you know that you can request a specific Roto-Rooter plumber when you call? Roto-Rooter's preferred service tech program is in place because sometimes things just click between you and your plumber. Customers sometimes write us to say, "that guy was so attentive and he found the perfect bathroom plumbing solutions for us." We understand that when a customer develops a rapport with one of our plumbers, they want to continue using that plumber.
One of our
Seattle plumbers was sent out to a remote location to fix some plumbing problems at a vacation home in the dead of winter. It was to be his last job of the day since it was getting late. He took care of the plumbing repair and went on his way. He didn't get very far when troopers stopped him at a road block and informed him that the highway was closed for the night due to an avalanche of snow covering the road.
Repeated attempts to find a motel were fruitless so the technician called the customer he just visited to see if he could help. Lo and behold, the customer picked up the Roto-Rooter man in his four-wheel-drive vehicle and let him spend the night at one of his rental properties. The two developed a strong rapport and plenty of mutual respect. Guess who the customer calls whenever he has plumbing problems?
When we think of Seattle, most of us think of rain. But this has been kind of a dry season for the Pacific Northwest, and conversely a "dry season" in terms of business demand for Seattle plumbers, Plumber Tacoma works too. Plumbing repair companies that replace lots of sump pumps and handle sewer repair work and sewer cleaning to remedy flooded basements, found themselves high and dry this fall at a time when they would prefer to be low and wet. But not many homeowners in the Seattle-Tacoma area were complaining. After all, those jobs are costly and these days extra cash is in short supply for most families.
But alas, the rains have returned. Last week saw normally tame rivers flooding beyond their banks and the abnormally dry ground became saturated once again. Looks like the humble Plumber Seattle is once again going to be a man in demand if the rain continues. Commercial plumbing as well as residential plumbing services should begin returning to their normal paces if the rain sticks around, for better or worse.
Plumbing problems are never convenient for the homeowner, but scheduling 24 hour plumbing service is as easy as pointing and clicking your mouse, using Roto-Rooter's EZ schedule tool on our web site. Finally, we've got a plumber who will work around your schedule whether at seven in the morning, nine at night or any other time that works for you.
