ROOTER SERVICES
We’ll Clear the Clogs – So You Can Get Back to Life.
When a drain won’t clear, a toilet keeps backing up, or water starts bubbling where it shouldn’t – chances are, you’re dealing with a blockage deep in your plumbing system. That’s where rooter services come in. At Military Plumbing, we specialize in clearing out stubborn clogs and restoring proper flow with fast, safe, and reliable solutions.
From homes in Frisco and Plano to businesses in Garland and throughout the DFW Metroplex, we provide the kind of rooter work that gets your plumbing back in shape – without damaging your pipes or your wallet.
WHAT ARE ROOTER SERVICES?
Rooter services refer to the process of clearing tough clogs from your drains, pipes, and sewer lines – especially those caused by tree roots, grease buildup, or debris that’s been building up for years. While the term started with machines built specifically to cut through tree roots, it now refers to a broader set of drain cleaning and blockage-clearing methods.

WHEN SHOULD YOU CALL FOR ROOTER SERVICE?
Sometimes, it’s obvious – your sink backs up and nothing helps. Other times, the signs are slower and sneakier. Keep an eye out for these common symptoms:
FREQUENT CLOGS

When one drain frequently backs up repeatedly, it signals a serious blockage or sewer line issue.
GURGLING SOUNDS

If your toilet bubbles or tub gurgles when water runs, you likely have a main line clog.
SLOW DRAINING

If water drains unusually slowly from multiple fixtures, you likely have a partial clog.
SEWAGE ODORS

If foul smells linger around drains or basement areas, you likely have a sewer gas leak.
WATER BACKUPS

When wastewater flows from your shower into sinks, it indicates a major obstruction in your main drain pipe.
TREE ROOT RISK

Large trees near underground pipes can cause root intrusion as they seek moisture through pipe joints.
Don’t wait until your yard floods or your bathroom overflows. The earlier we can address the problem, the less damage it can do.

SHOULD I SCHEDULE ROOTER SERVICE OR TRY ANOTHER FIX FIRST?
Not every slow drain or clog means it’s time to break out the heavy-duty rooter equipment—but some issues are a clear sign that you need professional help fast. If you’re not sure whether to start with a basic DIY approach or call for rooter service, this quick guide can help you decide.
You may only need a simple fix if:
-
The clog is limited to one drain (like a kitchen sink or bathroom sink)
-
Water still drains slowly but hasn’t fully backed up
-
You’ve recently had your drains professionally cleaned and this is the first minor slowdown
-
A basic plunger or small drain snake clears the blockage easily
-
There are no foul odors or gurgling sounds from other drains
In most of these cases, a quick cleaning or light snaking can solve the problem without a full rooter service.
It might be time for rooter service if:
-
Multiple drains are backing up at the same time
-
You’re dealing with recurring clogs despite frequent cleaning
-
Water backs up into other fixtures (like a shower filling when you run the sink)
-
There’s a strong sewage smell inside or outside your home
-
You suspect tree root intrusion, major grease buildup, or a collapsed pipe
At Military Plumbing, we only recommend rooter service when it’s truly needed. Our experts will assess your situation, explain the cause, and help you choose the best solution—so your drains run free and your home stays worry-free.
