Your plumbing is backed up from a clogged drain, and you’re about to call the plumber. But before you do, are you sure he’s the right person for the job? You should actually contact a rooter instead. You're probably wondering what exactly is the difference. They both deal with plumbing problems right? Roto-Rooter® Sewer & Drain Cleaning has been providing 38 years of dependable drain cleaning, sewer cleaning, and septic pumping services to the Kailua-Kona community. Their expert service technicians will let you know how you can decide if your problem needs a rooter or a plumber.

A plumber takes care of any issues you have with the pipes in your plumbing system in your home or in a building. Do you have a leak or need to replace a pipe? You need a plumber. Are you planning to install a new bathtub or kitchen sink? That’s a job for your plumber. But if you need to have your drain cleaned because of a clog or have tree roots blocking your drain line, you need a rooter from Roto-Rooter Sewer & Drain Cleaning.

Rooters are specialists who have the knowledge and expertise to clear your drains and sewers without causing damage. A sewer pipe contains water and oxygen—the perfect environment for tree roots to grow. These roots find their way into the pipe through small cracks and create blockages, which result in backups in your home. A rooter has the proper tools to remove these roots and keep your sewer lines clog-free.

But removing tree roots isn’t the only service a rooter provides. Roto-Rooter Sewer & Drain Cleaning will also keep your drains and sewers free of clogs created by toilet paper, grease and soap buildup, or any other items that shouldn’t belong in your drains. They also provide quality septic cleaning and perform pipe inspections using a camera location system that will help you determine problem spots in your plumbing system.
