Frequently Asked Questions in Seaside
My dishwasher connection is leaking under the sink. Is that a plumbing job?
Yes. The supply line, drain hose, and shutoff valve behind a dishwasher are plumbing components. A failed ice maker or dishwasher line can leak slowly for weeks before it's visible, saturating the cabinet floor and subfloor underneath. A Roto-Rooter technician inspects the connection points, replaces the failed line or valve, and checks for moisture damage that may need attention before the cabinet is reassembled.
What causes a basement floor drain to back up?
The floor drain sits at the lowest point of the home's drainage system, so it's the first place to show a backup when the main sewer line is compromised. Roots, grease buildup, or a clog between the house and the street will push water up through that drain before it affects higher fixtures. Roto-Rooter runs a camera down the floor drain to confirm where the blockage is before clearing it.
Why does my whole house have low water pressure all of a sudden?
A sudden drop in pressure across every fixture usually points to a failing pressure reducing valve, a supply line leak, or a partial blockage in the main. A Roto-Rooter technician measures the incoming pressure, inspects the PRV, and traces the supply line to pinpoint the cause. Diagnosing the root issue is the only reliable fix - adjusting a showerhead won't solve it.
Can I call Roto-Rooter in the middle of the night for a plumbing emergency?
Yes. Roto-Rooter dispatches technicians 24/7, 365 days a year - including nights, weekends, and holidays - with no extra charge for after-hours calls. A burst pipe or sewage backup can't wait until morning. Call 831-372-8303 any time to reach Roto-Rooter dispatch in Seaside, CA.
Can a plumber fix a running toilet, or is that something I can do myself?
A running toilet usually needs a new flapper or fill valve - parts that are inexpensive and swappable. The risk with DIY is misidentifying the cause: a worn flush valve seat or a cracked overflow tube looks similar but needs a different repair. A Roto-Rooter technician diagnoses the exact component, replaces it correctly, and confirms the tank refills to the right level.
My water heater is making a rumbling noise. What's causing that?
Rumbling usually means sediment has settled on the bottom of the tank. As the burner heats water trapped beneath that layer, it pops and rumbles. Over time, sediment reduces heating efficiency and accelerates tank corrosion. A Roto-Rooter technician flushes the tank, inspects the anode rod, and checks the pressure relief valve to restore safe, efficient operation.
What's the difference between snaking a drain and hydro jetting it?
An auger punches through the blockage and restores flow, but it leaves buildup coating the pipe wall. Hydro jetting sends a high-pressure water stream down the line that scours the wall clean - removing calcified grease, mineral scale, and root debris. For drains that clog repeatedly, Roto-Rooter typically recommends hydro jetting after augering so the pipe stays clear longer.
How often does a septic tank actually need to be pumped?
Most septic tanks need pumping every three to five years, depending on household size and usage. Sludge and scum accumulate at the bottom and top of the tank; once those layers get thick enough to reach the outlet baffle, solids flow into the drainfield and can clog the soil pores permanently. Roto-Rooter pumps the tank and inspects the baffles and inlet line during the same visit.
There's standing water in my basement after a pipe burst. What should I do first?
Shut off the water at the main valve, then avoid the area if any electrical outlets are near the waterline. Standing water needs to be extracted quickly - wet drywall and subfloor that stay saturated beyond 48 hours typically have to be removed to stop mold from taking hold. Roto-Rooter's water damage restoration team extracts the water, sets air movers and dehumidifiers, and documents the damage for your insurance claim.
Multiple drains in my house are backing up at the same time. What does that mean?
When toilets, tubs, and sinks all back up together, the blockage is almost always in the main sewer line between the house and the city connection - not in any individual fixture. Tree roots growing into lateral joints or a grease buildup in the main line are common causes. Roto-Rooter uses a sewer camera to locate the blockage, then clears it with augering or hydro jetting.
How do I know if I have a hidden water leak behind my walls?
Hidden leaks often show up as warm spots on the floor, bubbling paint, or a water meter that keeps running when every fixture is off. A Roto-Rooter technician uses moisture meters and visual inspection to trace the leak source without unnecessary demolition. Catching a hidden leak early prevents structural damage and mold growth.
