GREASE TRAP CLEANING AND LIQUID WASTE PUMPING/HAULING

Grease traps in particular are important to keep functioning, especially if you run a restaurant or a business that requires heavy use of the kitchen. A grease trap will contain animal fats and vegetable oils in kitchen wastewater that flow through your plumbing system before they reach sanitary sewer lines. If grease is allowed to build up too heavily, your lines will become clogged and backed up – not a pretty sight or smell! And it's certainly not good for business, since your kitchen cannot function without properly flowing lines. Call your local Roto-Rooter professional today and ask about our grease trap services.

This thorough cleaning means you'll need your grease trap pumped less often, and there's no accumulation of old grease, which can cause unpleasant odors.

Your Roto-Rooter plumber can maintain, repair and install Flushometer toilet and urinal systems for your business.

HANDS-FREE FLUSHING

Hand-free Flushometer systems are a popular option in public restrooms. Roto-Rooter can install motion activated Flushometers to existing commercial grade toilets and urinals. Customers and employees like hands-free systems and the toilets will flush themselves to create a cleaner, better smelling restroom environment.

GO GREEN

The Flushometer is now available in a dual-flushing "green" version. For liquid waste, push the handle downward for a water conserving low power flush. For solid waste, pull the handle upward for a full power flush. The dual-flush system reduces water usage by as much as 30 percent and is great in large buildings that are striving to be eco-friendly.

FLUSHING PROBLEMS

Large commercial buildings, retailers, schools and restaurants tend to get lots of bathroom traffic that can put wear and tear on plumbing fixtures, including heavy duty Flushometer flushing systems. Flushometers create a powerful bowl-clearing flush that rarely allows for clogs. In addition, because the water flow is metered. Flushometer equipped toilets tend to clog less than tank-type toilets but when they do clog, most laypersons don’t understand how to fix them. But your Roto-Rooter plumber can.

COMMERCIAL BACKFLOW SERVICES

Most municipal codes will require the installation of a backflow prevention device at each cross-connection point found within the plumbing systems of apartments, condominiums, food establishments, and most public and commercial places. The type of backflow preventer required will be in line with the degree of hazard present on the premises.

QUALITY SERVICE

Roto-Rooter technicians can perform annual backflow testing, repairs, installation and backflow certification of all types of prevention devices. Your technician will handle all necessary paperwork relating to your annual inspection, then we will remind you when your next annual backflow testing is due so your property remains in good standing with the local water authority.

BACKFLOW TESTING

Backflow valves must be inspected annually to ensure proper operation and to keep your property in compliance with the local code. Your fresh water supply is subject to interruption and your business may be fined if backflow testing isn’t completed in time.

BACKFLOW PREVENTION

A backflow prevention device most commonly consists of a pair of mechanical check values that prevent dirty water from flowing back into the clean water supply in the event of an unexpected or drastic change in water pressure. If properly installed and maintained, a backflow preventer will keep drinking water safe and free of contaminants.

WHAT IS BACKFLOW?

Potable (clean) water flows under pressure through municipal water lines to homes and businesses. Backflow is the reverse flow of dirty water through the clean water lines. Dirty water can be contaminated with feces, pesticides, chemicals, fertilizer and other hazardous materials, and causes a serious health hazard. Backflow can occur at cross-connections between potable and non-potable water in any residential, commercial or industrial system.

COMMERCIAL EXCAVATION SERVICES

Digging up sewer and water lines can be pretty serious plumbing work. If your business or municipality requires excavation services, you want the best and most experienced service provider available. Roto-Rooter offers a wide range of excavation services that are tailored to your needs. There's no need to stress when it comes to fixing an underground plumbing or sewer problem.

EXCAVATION

Much of Roto-Rooter's excavation work involves digging up existing water and sewer lines and repairing the damaged pipe sections or replacing the entire pipeline. This can be a small job or a large one, depending on the region of the country and the severity of the damage. For instance, sewer and water lines in South Texas and Florida only lie a few feet beneath the ground because of a shallow frost depth and lack of basements. However, in colder climates, some sewer systems are buried anywhere from 4 to an even 18 feet underground. The depth is mandated by climate, depth of connecting infrastructure and local plumbing codes. The shallowest lines can be repaired by small Roto-Rooter crews with shovels. However, deeper sewer and water lines require larger, more sophisticated excavation equipment, like backhoes, mini excavators or other heavy duty machinery.

Sewer Line Repairs

Sewer line repairs become necessary when cleaning is no longer possible or the frequency required to keep the line open is no longer cost effective. Luckily, we offer solutions to a variety of underground plumbing problems:

• Broken, cracked or collapsed pipes
• Blockages caused by a large foreign object restricting water flow
• Corrosion to the point that the pipe’s integrity has become compromised
• Bellied pipe, when a section of the pipe has sunk due to ground or soil conditions
• Leaking joints, when the seals between pipe sections have broken allowing sewage to flow into surrounding soil
• Roots in sewer line, when tree or shrub roots have completely invaded the sewer line causing voids in the pipe
• Off-grade pipe, when existing pipes have deteriorated or corroded

Wherever, whenever

Roto-Rooter provides water and sewer line excavation and repair in the commercial and municipal sectors. Roto-Rooter has all the necessary digging equipment and safety gear such as trench shoring walls to protect the crew from cave-ins. When it comes to safety and precision, Roto-Rooter plumbing and drain experts are exactly who you want to get the job done quickly and professionally with minimal interruption to your business. And Roto-Rooter pulls all necessary permits and arranges all required inspections from local regulatory authorities.

No matter what your underground plumbing issue may be, Roto-Rooter is available to help you diagnose and fix the problem. We're here to get you back in business quickly!

HIGH-PRESSURE WATER JETTING

Grease, sludge, sand and debris are the main causes of commercial drain line blockages. Our high-pressure water jetting service can help you clear this sediment by:

• Penetrating and emulsifying grease.
• Breaking up sludge and debris.
• Pulverizing roots.
• Cutting out hardened scale.
• Flushing out the system.

Cable machines are used to remove tree roots and break through solid obstructions. However, they are less effective in removing softer blockages such as grease, scale and other buildup. Cable machines will bore holes through sludge but they can't clean and push the debris out of pipes as effectively as a water jet machine.

WHAT IS WATER JETTING?

High-pressure water jetting is an efficient, economical, and environmentally safe way to clean drain and sewer pipes. Using state-of-the-art pumps and flexible hoses, ordinary water is propelled under varying amounts of pressure into the sewer line. A special nozzle mounted on the end of a heavy-duty hose has an array of forward and reverse water jets, which direct extremely powerful concentrated streams of water all the way to the pipe walls. Even the toughest blockages and buildup can’t stand up to water jet machine cutting, which thoroughly cleans pipes.

REGULAR WATER JET MAINTENANCE KEEPS DRAIN LINES FLOWING

Restaurants and other commercial establishments typically require frequent high-pressure water jetting to remove mineral deposits, grease buildup, sludge and debris that accumulate in the lines. Clogs can cause down time, and down time in any industry means lost customers and revenue.

Some businesses may require just one or two cleanings annually, while others benefit from monthly or quarterly cleanings. That's why many of our customers prefer to set up a scheduled program for water jetting service that keeps their drains flowing freely. A Roto-Rooter professional can recommend a jetting service schedule that best meets the needs of your business.

Water jet machine service means cleaner pipes, which means fewer service calls, less down time, overall cost savings and one less thing for you to worry about.

For a complete list of commercial plumbing services – including everything from toilet repair to grease trap cleaning and backflow services – call Roto-Rooter at 800-768-6911. You can set up regular appointments for water jetting maintenance or call us in an emergency too. We're available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year – even holidays and weekends – to help get your plumbing system up and running smoothly again.
