Roto-Rooter Plumbing & Water Cleanup holds a 4.8-star Google rating from 324 ratings. The company says it has been in business for 91 years. Its website lists plumbing, water heaters, leaks, garbage disposals, toilets, sinks, faucets and sump pumps among its services, and it says it offers 24/7 emergency service. A recent Google reviewer's completely clogged kitchen sink was cleared and everything was working again, and the technician cleaned everything up before leaving. On a recent kitchen drain job, the plumber cleaned the drain quickly, left the work area cleaner than when he arrived, and charged what the reviewer called a reasonable price for the job. At a commercial building, Roto-Rooter helped find a blockage and cleared it with camera and jetting services; the reviewer praised service tech Denys for his work ethic and professionalism. In a 2026 review, tech Denys gave a clear diagnosis and resolution of the problem. In that 2026 review, he also explained how to maintain septic health and lines and avoid the same problem with frozen pipes. In a 2025 review, the reviewer called at 1 and had a stubborn toilet clog fixed by 4. That 2025 reviewer said the service was not cheap, but did not imagine the cost was much different than others. Massachusetts plumber license 2604-PL-C, held by G.W. Chapman Inc Dba Roto Rooter Inc, is expired on the state registry.
