Comprehensive Plumbing Solutions in Norfolk

Norfolk homes built before 1988 may have lead service lines, which can leach lead into drinking water and cause health problems. Norfolk’s low-lying geography and proximity to the coast make local plumbing systems susceptible to flooding, especially during heavy rain and high tides. High coastal humidity increases the risk of pipe corrosion. Roto-Rooter plumbers in Norfolk 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 productivity. We provide the following commercial plumbing services to Norfolk businesses, including shipyards, logistics centers, advanced manufacturing plants, and retail outlets:

24/7 Emergency Plumbing Service in Norfolk

You can’t afford to wait when you need an emergency plumber in Norfolk. 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. Gray water in drains

  2. Sudden loss of water pressure

  3. Banging, whistling, or gurgling from pipes

  4. Rusty or discolored water

  5. Overflowing toilets

  6. Loss of hot water

  7. Unexplained spikes in water bills

Expert Drain Cleaning in Norfolk 

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 a Norfolk plumber will be at your door to address your sewer or drain problem. 

Our drain cleaning services include:

  • Sink drains

  • Toilet drains

  • Roof drains and downspouts

  • Storm drains

  • Main sewer drains

We use drain snakes, rooters, and hydro-jetting equipment to eliminate debris and optimize drain performance. No matter the cause of your clogged drain, we’ll open it and clean it thoroughly from end to end.

Water Heater Repairs and Installations 

Water heater repairs are among the top reasons people call plumbers in Norfolk, VA. 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 Norfolk plumbing technicians service all types of water heaters, including traditional, tankless, and solar models.

Sewer Pipe Restoration and Excavation in Norfolk

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

Norfolk 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

Norfolk’s water supply comes from reservoirs, deep wells, and the Blackwater and Nottoway Rivers. Local water meets state and federal safety standards but may contain trace amounts of lead, chromium-6, disinfection byproducts, and carcinogenic PFAS. A water filtration system helps ensure your home or business has the best possible water quality. 

Types of filtration systems

  • Activated carbon

  • Ion exchange

  • Reverse osmosis

  • Mechanical

  • Ultraviolet
