The bathroom packs more fixtures into a small room than anywhere else in the house. A small leak there can soak a subfloor before you see a stain. We fix the part that failed, test it and leave the room as clean as we found it.
Most bathroom problems start small. Catch these signs early and the fix is often a simple part, not a new floor.

Many early 1900s homes in Tacoma's North End and Stadium District still have old galvanized supply lines and tight bathrooms. A fixture swap there can turn up rusted shutoffs or narrow pipes. In Lakewood's many mid-century homes, original shower valves are often worn. We price what we find before any work begins.
On South Hill and in Lacey, many homes from the 1980s to 2000s are at the age when original toilets, faucets and shower cartridges wear out. Homes from about 1978 to 1995 may have polybutylene supply pipe, a gray plastic prone to failure. If we see it behind a fixture, we will tell you.

Rooter-Man Plumbing of Tacoma answers the phone 24/7 with a real person. A running toilet is often a worn flapper or fill valve. We can send a plumber tonight for an after-hours fee, or book you in Monday to Saturday, 8 AM to 5 PM.
That usually means the shower valve is not balancing pressure well. Many newer valves have a cartridge that adjusts when pressure drops. When the cartridge wears, the shower swings hot or cold. A new cartridge often fixes it. We test the valve and give you a flat price first.
Repair it if the bowl and tank are sound and only parts have worn, like a flapper, fill valve or wax ring. Replace it if the china is cracked, it clogs often or parts keep failing. We show you both prices before any work begins.
Often, yes. Most drips come from a worn cartridge, washer or O-ring inside the faucet. If parts are still made, a repair costs less than a new faucet. If the body is corroded or parts are gone, we quote a replacement before any work begins.
Yes. We remove the old toilet, check the flange and floor under it, set the new toilet on a fresh wax ring and connect a new supply line. Then we test for leaks and clean up. A typical toilet replacement takes 2 to 3 hours.
A toilet auger is a short cable tool made to reach through the bowl's curves without scratching it. It clears clogs a plunger cannot reach. It is part of our Basic and Pro membership plans once benefits start after 8 consecutive monthly payments.
Not always. Many cartridges come out from the front, behind the handle. Some valve repairs need access from behind, through a closet or panel. If a wall must be opened, your quote spells out where before any work begins, so nothing comes as a surprise.
Yes. Most slow tubs have hair and soap packed in the drain or the stopper. We clear it and check the overflow. If the clog sits deeper or other drains are slow too, the problem may be farther down the line, and our drain cleaning service handles that.
Yes. We disconnect the old sink or faucet, install the new one with fresh supply lines, and connect the drain and trap. We check for leaks before we leave. If your shutoff valves are old and stuck, we price new ones up front.
