Many people still remember the iconic Roto-Rooter jingle, a promise of plumbing troubles solved with ease. That same trusted name continues to lead drain cleaning and plumbing care for homeowners and businesses across Des Moines and throughout Iowa. As a local franchise of the nationally recognized Roto-Rooter corporation, we deliver a full range of reliable plumbing services with a commitment to fast, effective solutions backed by decades of proven expertise.

The Roto-Rooter story began in Des Moines in the early 1930s when founder Samuel Blanc invented a groundbreaking drain cleaning machine in his garage. Designed to clear sewer lines without digging, his innovation quickly transformed plumbing services and led to the creation of Roto-Rooter in 1935. From those humble beginnings, the company has grown into the largest plumbing and drain care provider in North America, and we are proud to carry forward that legacy of ingenuity, dependability, and local service here in Des Moines.
