Best Excavating contractor in New Orleans for SameDay Service

Roto-Rooter Plumbing & Water Cleanup is a branch of the national Roto-Rooter franchise, based at 520 Elmwood Park Blvd Ste 190 in New Orleans' Elmwood Park area and operating around the clock. Its listed services span faucet and sink repair, toilet repair and replacement, water heater repair and replacement, and complete sewer line cleaning, repair, and replacement. The branch also handles water damage cleanup and restoration, and its service offerings include scheduled drain maintenance programs, pipe restoration and excavation, toilet and urinal flushometers, and backflow inspection and repair. Review accounts stress speed: customers describe technicians arriving within the hour and clearing main-line blockages in minutes, with named technicians including Drew, Joshua, Lester, Koy, Jonathon, Zach, Jessie, Emile, and Eli. Many reviewers note thorough, step-by-step explanations of the diagnosis. The counterpoint is pricing — several customers describe the rates as high relative to independent shops, and one detailed account describes a sewer-line estimate that other plumbers later undercut significantly, after an independent inspection showed far less work was needed. This branch fits customers facing time-critical problems — burst pipes, blocked sewer mains, flooding damage — where 24/7 dispatch and a large, well-equipped team matter most. Given the pricing complaints in the record, homeowners comparing quotes on major sewer or pipe work may want a second opinion before approving large estimates.
