For a company to make it 75 years, they have to be doing something well. We must be because we went from one man and his unique machine to thousands of service technicians from coast-to-coast plus international franchises in 75 years. And Roto-Rooter has become the largest provider of plumbing repair and drain cleaning services in the U.S. and Canada. Possibly even the largest business of its kind in the world. And we do it 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. And since dozens of look-alike and sound-alike companies have tried to copy our formula for success, we must be doing something right. There's Mr. Rooter, Rescue Rooter, Ready Rooter, Rooter Man...all of which do their best to look like Roto-Rooter, the ORIGINAL rooter company. Many of the copycats have come and gone but Roto-Rooter has endured because of its experience, good customer service and value. •Palos Hills, Illinois Resident Wins Grand Prize Ghost Hunting Trip with SyFy Channel's Ghost Hunters.Cincinnati, OH-KY-IN (1888PressRelease.com) September 24, 2009 - Winners have been selected for Roto-Rooter's Chilling Tales Sweepstakes, the contest launched alongside its recent book launch Chilling Tales from the Porcelain Seat.

Rangers can troubleshoot all sorts of problems, Kroncke said. "The bathrooms backed up at the Warner Park shelter last year and rangers were able to call Roto-Rooter and take care of the problem within three hours. If you're the person renting the facility, you're going to be awfully glad someone was there," he said."•August 1, 2004 Roto-Rooter Jingle Turns 50Story at Plumbing & Mechanical Magazine on-line
