In rural areas where there is no centralized sewer system, it is common to have an underground wastewater treatment structure called a Septic System. Septic Systems use a combination of nature and proven technology to treat all the wastewater from a household produced by toilets, showers, sinks and laundry washing machines.
Regular maintenance of your septic system comes out to $250 to $500 every three to five years. This is basically the lowest possible cost to have your septic tank pumped out. A couple hundred dollars every three to five years is a huge bargain compared to the cost of repairing or replacing a failing septic system which can cost between $3,000 and $9,000.
Septic system maintenance is much, much cheaper in the long run compared to the cost of neglecting the system and letting it damage itself, sometimes beyond repair. A typical household septic system should be inspected every three years and pumped out every three to five years. Alternative systems with electrical float switches, pumps, mechanical components and alert systems should be inspected more often - once a year to be safe.
Video cameras are one of the most valuable tools in the plumbing business. Specially designed waterproof plumbing cameras allow plumbing technicians to conduct a visual inspection of sewer lines and other underground pipes, including pipes under cement and under your home's foundation.

To begin your sewer camera inspection, a professionally trained and skilled technician inserts a rod with a high-resolution video camera on its tip into your sewer lines.These high-tech drain cameras are flexible, allowing them to travel through twists and turns in sewer lines and thoroughly examine pipes and pipe walls in drain lines from 2 inches to 36 inches in diameter.

The Roto-rooter team came out to our place twice-first to “diagnose” the problem (root growth around and in the plumbing from the house to the septic tank), and then returned after the tank had been pumped to dig down and remove the roots that were clogging up the system. They all did a great job explaining the issue. Service was prompt and professional, and all four of the employees that we met were friendly.

Greg did a great job changing our wax ring. He also took a shine balanced out the toilet, and put down a bead of calk around the base, which was not there before. Thanks Greg, we will ask for you next time we need your kind of help.
Merry Christmas to all.

I am the Project Manager for Diggers Dirt Co and had Tim and Troy out to a project i am working on and needed the septic tank located and marked. They showed up on time and communicated very well the entire time they were on site and made it look like they weren’t even in the home. HIGHLY RECOMMEND taking advantage of their camera services. TOP NOTCH SERVICE and very fair priced. Thanks again Roto Rooter Team

They quoted me 1-4, they were able to get out sooner and called to make sure that was okay, it was more than okay. Joshua was nice he worked his magic. my toilets no longer gurgles, he crawled under the house inspected everything, he was very fair and upfront with pricing did not ding me for anything I did not need. He even went so far as to check my septic tank to know that it did not need to be pumped, another huge money-saving service.
