Comprehensive Plumbing Services in Cincinnati

Our motto is simple when it comes to service offerings: “Yeah, we do that, too!” Our Cincinnati plumbers tailor their training and services to meet local conditions and plumbing codes. We have a deep and comprehensive understanding of local plumbing systems and the unique environmental concerns and weather patterns that affect Cincinnati's plumbing and drain infrastructure.

Cincinnati residents count on Roto-Rooter for a comprehensive range of plumbing services, including:

Roto-Rooter is also equipped to deal with Cincinnati’s unique plumbing challenges. The Queen City contains a wealth of old and beautiful buildings — many of which have old and not-so-beautiful plumbing. What’s more, Greater Cincinnati's water is among the hardest in the nation, with a high mineral content that can create damaging deposits in pipes and faucets. When you need a plumber who’s seen it all, Cincinnatians know Roto-Rooter is the one to call. 

To arrange a service appointment, reach out to our Cincinnati plumbing office at 513-631-2525 or use our convenient online scheduling form.

Residential Plumbing Services

It only takes one clogged drain or backed-up toilet to make you aware of all the modern home plumbing conveniences we take for granted. Roto-Rooter’s plumbing professionals know how to quickly fix your home’s water problems and minimize damage and inconvenience. Don’t wait until the problem gets worse — call Roto-Rooter today for any and all of the following:

  • Leak repairs
  • Drain cleaning and unclogging
  • Water heater maintenance

  • Pipe restoration and excavation

  • Water damage cleanup

    Commercial Plumbing Services

    We’re also fully equipped to handle plumbing in commercial spaces like offices, restaurants, retail stores, and beyond. A single office restroom can receive more traffic in a day than a residential bathroom does in a month, and our plumbers understand the ins and outs of high-volume commercial plumbing. We also recognize the critical importance of minimizing plumbing downtime for businesses because every minute without functional plumbing is potential income lost and customers turned away.

    Businesses in the Queen City know that Roto-Rooter is the top choice for a full range of commercial plumbing services, including:

Most commercial plumbing requires special tools and experience to handle large, complex plumbing systems. Roto-Rooter’s experienced commercial plumbers in Cincinnati use state-of-the-art equipment for both commercial and residential plumbing.

    Expert Drain Cleaning in Cincinnati

    From showers to sinks to basements, drains keep our homes and businesses clean and functional. Unfortunately, all of the hair, soap scum, grease, and debris that we send down drains can accumulate until your drains are no longer flowing properly — causing backups, overflows, offensive odors, mold growth, and all kinds of other potential problems. Drain clogs can be especially severe in Cincinnati, where mineral-rich hard water creates deposits that trap soap scum in place and increase the likelihood of a blocked drain.

    Roto-Rooter isn’t just the premier plumber in Cincinnati for drain cleaning — we literally invented modern drain maintenance. Our founder, Samuel Blanc, developed the original Roto-Rooter drain cleaning machine in 1933, using an electric motor to spin a flexible cable with sharp blades on its tip to cut through tree roots and clear out pipe clogs with stunning efficiency. Today, Roto-Rooter proudly uses the latest and most advanced versions of our industry-defining technology. Contact our plumbers today and discover the quickest way to a clean, clear drain.

    Sewer Line Services in Cincinnati

    A blocked or damaged sewer line is any home or business owner’s nightmare. Raw sewage can back up and overflow into sinks, toilets, and bathtubs, creating a foul-smelling mess that can be a serious hazard to your health and property. 

    Causes of a damaged sewer line can vary. However, in a city like Cincinnati, where older plumbing is common, a combination of tree roots and outdated pipes is often the culprit. While modern PVC pipes are well-sealed against root damage, older meta, clay, and concrete pipes are vulnerable to invasion from water-seeking roots. Once debris such as hair, grease, and toilet paper begins to catch on these roots, you’re on your way to a serious sewer line issue.

    Roto-Rooter is the most trusted Cincinnati plumbing service for comprehensive sewer line expertise. Our specialized cleaning equipment can unclog a sewer line quickly and efficiently — and, if necessary, we can even execute a full repair and replacement of your sewer system. Get your sewer line back to normal now and set up an appointment with a Roto-Rooter professional.

    Water Heater Repairs and Installations

    A well-functioning water heater is essential for Cincinnati’s cold winters — or just for everyday tasks like washing dishes and taking showers. The average lifespan of a conventional water heater is 11 years. Tankless models last a few years longer. Call us if you notice any of these water heater warning signs: 

    • Hot water supply runs out quickly
    • Leaks around the base
    • Temperature & pressure relief valve is ejecting water
    • Strange noises from the water heater 
    • Discolored hot water
    • Pilot light/ignition system troubles
    • Water heater runs more often

    Water heater service is another task you should leave to a professional, and Roto-Rooter’s expert plumbers are here to help. We’re ready to handle all of your water heater needs, from installation to service to replacement, and our 24-hour water heater service ensures you’ll always have support when it counts the most. Make an appointment for water heater service today.

    I appreciate the service tech's honesty and thoroughness. I thought the bathtub drainpipe was leaking into the basement. But after much investigation by the tech, he determined that ... the problem was a tile failure that allowed water to seep behind the tiles. Too bad you don't do bathtub replacements.

    Absolutely superior service from the initial phone call to successful restoration of our drain. Each individual that Roto-Rooter sent was a specialist who kept us informed all the way... what ... he would do, how it was to be accomplished, and what to expect as a result. All were in uniform and well versed in customer satisfaction. If I ever need help again, I would not hesitate before calling Roto-Rooter again!

    I really appreciated that I had such quick service. I called and they were able to come out and fix the drain quickly. He made sure he had shoe ... covers on and he explained what he had to do and showed me what he had removed. He told me that many people put too much in the garbage disposal and that it is not mean to be a shredder for all things. I had made a veggie tray and sliced too many carrots and other vegetables. I now only put down what is left over on plates. Thanks for the quick response.

    Excellent service! The Roto-Rooter technician (${esc.hash}1225) in Cincinnati, OH, arrived shortly after my husband placed the call for service (within 2 hours). After showing him the problem ... he went right to work. It didn't take him long at all to unclog our drain. He knew exactly when he had hit the clog (at about 30') but went beyond it (about another 60') to make sure there weren't additional clogs. He asked us to run water when he was done to test and make sure that he had in fact resolved the problem. I'm happy to say that the drains worked as they should! He was a very personable young man, polite and was sure to wear paper booties on his feet to keep from tracking dirt into the house. My husband and I would highly recommend Roto-Rooter to anyone with drain line issues.
