Roto-Rooter offers commercial and residential plumbing services. From emergency plumbing to drain cleaning, sewer cleaning to pipe work, Roto-Rooter can help you with any plumbing problem. Roto-Rooter plumbers are licensed and insured and handle everything from water lines to toilet and shower problems. No plumbing job is too big or too small for our experienced and professional plumbers. Schedule an appointment by phone or online, we'll come when it's convenient for you.

"BEWARE, RECORD YOUR INTERACTIONS WITH THESE PEOPLE, they are completely dishonest. I had a sewer backup in my laundry room overnight and called Roto-Rooter to come and give me an estimate on what was wrong, no estimate, the technician got started right away. He went in with the machine and pulled back a small amount of roots from my line. He then put a scope down the line the entire length to the city main, I watched the entire time and verified the line was open, flowing and in-tact. He then decided to have another pass at it and after about 20 minutes of struggling with his equipment, he pulled back a snapped cable, sent the scope back down and came across a majorly damaged section of clay tile pipe with total blockage. I realize I live in an older home, the technician said however, the pipe was in decent condition. He quickly packed up and presented me with a $500 fee and to sign waiver of all responsibility for damage. I questioned what had just happened and he immediately got defensive and aggressive. INCREDIBLY unprofessional. The owner, Mark was no help either. I thought he may work with me on a resolution but he blindly stands by his staff, apparently condoning their intimidation tactics. I was threatened with a lien on my home and now am awaiting a bill for $500, my sewer line is still backing up and now get to to figure out a solution to the $7500 in damage. Beware, this company does not stand by it's customers, or try to come to a resolution, I was gaslit and received nothing but defense of his technician with no substantive resolution."

Carlson Projects is owner operated with over 20 years of industry experience. You can expect integrity, honesty and professionalism in every job – doing what, when and all we promise to do from your initial estimate to the last project clean up on the job.

"The Carlson Projects Inc was recommended to me by a friend who referenced how they take pride in their work and pay attention to detail. My introduction to the Carlson family went well and the journey began in creating a beautiful bathroom. I was especially grateful to Cody Allen and Shawn Carlson who provided recommendations with color, design and quality products. This 100 year old house had so many secrets and surprises and Cody and Shawn were able to problem solve and work through every obstacle. Shortly after signing the contract for this project the co-vid pandemic hit the community. I was impressed how the Carlson family and crew was able to respect social distancing and still assist me with product selection and ordering the needed materials to keep the project moving. Most important for me is to recognize Cody Allen for over-seeing this project. He was informative, organized, hard working and has great interpersonal communication skills. He kept me updated to the challenges of an old house and sought advise from his peers. I feel he has a great career ahead of him. Thanks to all the Carlson family and crew!!!!! Alan Fulton"

Water and Smoke Damage Repair questions, answered by experts

Call 911 immediately. If you have a fire extinguisher or fire blanket near the laundry room, you can attempt to extinguish the fire, but don’t open or touch the dryer. If you can’t put the fire out, evacuate yourself, your family, and your pets from the house, closing the laundry room door behind you. Turn off the electricity to your home via the outside fuse box, then wait for the fire department. After a dryer fire, have your home’s electrical system inspected to make sure there isn’t any damage.

Yes, most insurance plans cover acts of nature. In policy documents, this also may be called “Acts of God” or “natural disasters.” However, not all acts of nature are covered by your policy, and the extent to which they’re covered depends on your specific contract. Check your policy documents to understand your coverage limits and exclusions.

On average, you should expect the fire damage restoration process to take two weeks, but the timeline can vary widely depending on the extent of the damage and the type of fire damage you have. Minor cooking fires that you’re able to extinguish yourself may only take a day or two to clean soot and remove smoke odors, while restoring an entire section of a home or fixing structural damage after a major house fire can take six to 12 months. Ask your professional for a more accurate timeline for your specific project.

Just about anything that can damage your roof can damage a solar panel. It’s common for panels to sustain damage from hail or falling branches. Critters can chew through the wires. Snow and heavy rainfall can cause additional wear, along with extreme temperatures, which can degrade or stress the individual components. Even the UV rays that create electricity slowly damage your panel over time.

Smoke damage will not go away on its own, but with professional remediation and restoration, you can return your home to its original condition after a fire. Trained smoke restoration professionals can eliminate smoke damage, which can affect areas of your home that are hard to see or access, and restore or replace smoke-damaged materials.
