When Is The Right Time to Schedule Rooter Services?

It's not always clear when the right time is to call for rooter service. If you have experienced a previous backup in your side sewer due to tree roots, it is recommended to clean the line once a year as a preventive maintenance. Simply put, tree roots need a haircut.

The process of clearing a drain or side sewer is a relatively simple task, yet requires years of skill to be able to call yourself an expert.

The first step is to diagnose the problem. Dirty water backing up into a shower stall, tub or floor drain in the basement may be a local or more complicated stoppage, and may indicate the need for professional plumbing rooter services.

To determine if it’s a side sewer clog, we simply flush the toilet. Is the water backing up in the flooded drain? If not, it’s a local stoppage, and can be cleaned with the smaller-sized cable machine. In cases like these, our drain rooter service is essential for accurately identifying and resolving the issue.

We run or clean the sewer line using the cable machine with big blades, running the line several times all the way to the main sewer to clear out tree roots and debris, and to ensure a superior job!

We're famous for rainy weather here in the Pacific Northwest. All that extra water means drain problems happen more frequently in the Seattle area. Even so, it’s not always easy to know whether you need to search for “professional rooter service near me,” as the term "rooter" can imply many different plumbing issues that require rooter solutions.

The experts at Bob Oates can help. Here's a quick guide you can use to determine whether you’d benefit from our plumbing and rooter services.

• Your drains are draining slowly or not at all
• More than one drain is backed up simultaneously
• You have a toilet that overflows repeatedly
• You have wastewater backing up into plumbing fixtures or your home
• You notice a foul odor originating from your plumbing
• You hear strange sounds or running water in the pipes

Each scenario could suggest that you need professional rooter services, although this is by no means a complete list of troubling symptoms.

If you notice any of the issues mentioned above in your home or have concerns about your plumbing's health, you can rely on Bob Oates to quickly diagnose and solve your plumbing problem. Our fast, efficient approach to rooter services and customer service enables us to handle whatever plumbing concerns you may be dealing with.
