Comprehensive Plumbing Solutions in Akron

Many homes in older Akron neighborhoods have plumbing systems containing outdated materials like galvanized steel, lead, or clay that are prone to corrosion, collapse, leaks, and sudden pipe bursts. Homes built before 1950 may have lead service lines that pose health risks. Roto-Rooter’s Akron plumbers tailor their services to meet and resolve local plumbing issues.

We offer a wide range of plumbing services, including: 

Commercial Plumbing Services 

Roto-Rooter understands that a commercial plumbing issue can shut down your business, forcing you to turn away customers and reducing your productivity. We provide the following plumbing services to Akron commercial facilities, including tire manufacturing plants, warehouses, educational institutions, and healthcare facilities:

You can’t afford to wait when you need an emergency Akron plumber. Roto-Rooter’s dedicated plumbers are on call 24/7 with same-day service to solve your plumbing and water-related emergencies. 

7 signs of a plumbing emergency 

  1. Sudden loss of water pressure

  2. Visible frost on uninsulated pipes

  3. Standing water in basements

  4. Sewer backups

  5. Unexplained spike in water bills

  6. Recurring drain backups

  7. Sewage odors from drains

Expert Drain Cleaning in Akron 

Debris that builds up over time in drains can cause clogs, reducing water flow and blocking the drain. By offering 24/7 drain and sewer cleaning support, Roto-Rooter can help keep your drains clear. Call us, and an Akron plumber will be at your door to address your sewer or drain problem. 

Our drain cleaning services Include:

  • Sink drains

Water Heater Repairs and Installations 

Water heater repairs are among the top reasons people call plumbers in Akron, OH. The average lifespan of a conventional water heater is 11 years, with tankless models lasting about two decades. Make sure you’re scheduling regular water heater maintenance. 

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

  • Reduced Hot Water Supply: May indicate sediment buildup, a faulty heating element, or a leak.

  • Pools of Water Around the Tank Base: A sign of a serious issue, including a possible hole in the tank.

  • Temperature and Pressure Relief Valve Ejecting Water: Indicates high pressure or temperature, requiring immediate attention.

  • 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 plumbing contractors in Akron, OH, service all types of water heaters, including traditional, tankless, and solar models.

Sewer Pipe Restoration and Excavation in Akron

Sewer line issues can result in backed-up wastewater, foul smells, and property damage. Roto-Rooter’s sewer solutions professionals clear clogs and repair sewer lines quickly and efficiently to protect your property and health. 

Our sewer line services include:

  • Sewer Line Cleaning: Prevent clogs and backups with routine cleanings.

  • Video Camera Inspections: See exactly what’s causing your sewer line problems with our in-pipe inspections.

  • Sewer Line Repair: We use conventional excavation and trenchless methods to repair damaged sewer lines with minimal disruption.

  • Sewer Line Replacement: When repairs aren’t feasible, we replace your sewer line with durable, high-quality materials.

Water Softener and Filtration

Akron has moderately hard 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

Akron’s water supply comes from the Cuyahoga River and Lake Rockwell Reservoir. Local water meets state and federal safety standards, but may still contain trace amounts of harmful compounds from industrial discharge, agricultural runoff, disinfection byproducts, and PFAS or “forever chemicals.” 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

The day we found out that we had a small gas leak from an old valve hooked up to our furnace, I tried calling every place I could think of ... to get it fixed immediately so we could have heat again. Roto-Rooter was the only place that could come out that day. He showed up within a half hour gave a quote but told us to give him a minute to see if he could do it cheaper. He came back into the house and informed us that he could make it $75 cheaper and do the work that day. In less than an hour our heat was turned back and I couldn't be happier!

He snaked out the drain 4 to 5 times before he was happy ... that it would run properly. he cleaned up all of the mess, and showed me what he had got out of the drain. he was professional, pleasant, and hard working. I am extremely happy with the job, would recommend them to anyone. Jim

I have used Roto-Rooter several times over the past few years. I have been very happy each time with the service provided. Once again, I was very pleased ... with my experience with Roto-Rooter. The entire experience was nothing but professional from my initial call to set up an appointment, to the call to notify me that they were on their way. Our plumber Adam was so very polite and professional. He immediately provided me with a quote and continued to inform me as he assessed my issue in the basement. After a few hours of work, Adam was able to fix my problem in the basement. When your sewer pipes back up into your basement it is quite overwhelming, however, my experience with Roto- Rooter made my situation manageable. I will be happy to call Roto- Rooter again when needed.
