SameDay response
4.9 62 reviews

Waters Vacuum Truck is a Reno-based septic specialist at 4275 Rewana Way serving Washoe County. Its listed work centers on septic systems: pumping, installation, inspection, and repair, including leach field diagnosis and new leach field installation. The company also handles storm drains, sand and oil separators, and grease traps, alongside excavating and sewer cleaning services. It is accredited with a BBB A+ profile for septic tank cleaning and related work. Reviewers include repeat customers of many years who describe prompt, courteous, professional service for routine pumping. Technicians Marko and Christian are named: one account describes Marko explaining the home's septic system components and their operation in plain terms, while Dan and Christian's crew are credited with completing repairs within two days and leaving the yard restored. Another account notes the company arriving within the hour for an urgent call and walking through options to keep costs down. This is a fit for homeowners on septic systems rather than municipal sewer in Washoe County, especially first-time septic owners who want the system explained. It suits buyers and sellers needing septic inspection and pumping during a real estate transaction, and commercial properties with grease trap or storm drain needs. The long repeat-customer record makes it a natural choice for scheduled recurring pumping.

Rooter Man Plumbing of Reno

SameDay response
4.5 382 reviews

Rooter Man Plumbing of Reno is a drain and sewer-focused plumbing company serving Reno, Sparks, Carson City, and nearby towns. Its listed offerings cover emergency plumbing, clogged drain line cleaning, water heater tank installation, trenchless sewer line replacement, pipe repair and installation, and septic services including septic tank cleaning, with 24-hour service for both residential and commercial customers. The trenchless sewer replacement capability is a differentiator, allowing sewer line replacement with minimal digging. Reviewers name technicians Daniel — also listed as Dan — and Adam, describing same-day arrivals, in one case within the hour, and patient explanations of repair options. Positive themes include fast sewer cleanout work and problem-solving that avoids larger demolition, such as rethreading a corroded cast-iron pipe inside the wall rather than tearing the wall out. Pricing feedback is mixed: some customers report bills well above their expectations and advise securing a firm quote before dispatch. This is a fit for homeowners with drain blockages, sewer line trouble, or septic systems who want a sewer specialist with trenchless repair options. It is less of a fit for customers highly sensitive to price, who should confirm costs in writing before a technician is dispatched.

Hoffman Plumbing

No SameDay response
4.8 174 reviews

Hoffman Plumbing is a Reno plumbing contractor on Mayberry Drive with an unusually broad service catalog. Beyond standard plumbing, drainage, and gas installation work, its listed capabilities include hot water systems, HVAC contracting, septic system service, water damage restoration, water softening equipment, and general repair. The specialty list runs from camera inspections, leak detection, and trenchless sewer work to repiping, sump pumps, fixtures, and remodeling. Reviewer accounts name Chaz, Luke, and Doug across jobs: toilet replacements completed with old units hauled away, shower spout and handle work finished on time at the quoted price, and responsive communication from first call through completion. Broader directory profiles list drain cleaning, backflow testing, water treatment, and emergency calls among its services, and note a presence in the Carson City and Gardnerville area as well. This is a fit for homeowners who want one company to cover interconnected problems — a leak that touched drywall, a sewer issue that needs a camera, a gas line plus a water heater. The trenchless and camera-inspection capability suits buyers weighing a home with unknown underground lines. Given the breadth, the strongest use of the shop is as a single point of contact for multi-trade jobs where plumbing, drainage, and restoration overlap.
