Plumbing problems? Call the pros! We send licensed service experts for everything from leaky faucets to re-piping buildings.

Professional installation of natural gas water heaters by licensed plumbers who specialize in gas fitting. Available as 40, 50 or 80 gallon tanks, High Efficiency On Demand, or Indirect water heaters, with 6 year or 10 year warranty options.

On Demand: no tank to hold hot water — cold water is piped directly into the heating unit as you need it, so you never run out of hot water.

Indirect: powered by your home’s hydronic heating system, so you operate one natural gas unit instead of two. Typical heat loss is less than ½ degree per hour, and it replenishes hot water 2–3 times as fast as a standard water heater.

Professional installation of electric water heaters in a variety of sizes, including many energy efficient models. Tank warranties include 6 year, 12 year and lifetime options. We’ll help determine the best fit based on your water usage and the location of the unit — call 508-888-6055 to discuss the best option for your home or business.

Whether you’re starting a new home or renovating your old one, from design to installation Ready Rooter will guide you through the decisions — energy saving products, how to heat your new space, the best bathroom fixtures, and how a new space will impact your septic system. We plan with you and/or your contractor to keep you on schedule and within budget. See photos in Our Work.

“A picture is worth a thousand words.” Many septic and drain problems occur underground, where we can’t see what’s happened. With Ready Rooter’s Sewer Inspection Video, we put a camera on the front end of our cable and send it through your pipes to find the malfunction, then project the image on our screen so you can see what’s happening. Seeing the issue lets us diagnose accurately and eliminates guesswork. Commercial sewer inspection video is also available.

Your septic system needs to be emptied and cleaned every two years for optimal performance and to maximize its lifespan. Every service includes:

1. Tank location — we find your tank lid with a probe rod or electronic locator. We cut your grass, preserve it on tarps, and put it back afterward.
2. Uncovering the inlet and outlet — we clean and inspect both ends of the tank.
3. Removal of all contents using a septic pump truck.
4. Wash-down of the tank to remove sludge that can cause systems to fail prematurely.
5. Clean-up — all tools and equipment are washed so no waste is left on the lawn.
6. Yard restored to its original condition.
7. Two years later, we contact you to schedule your next appointment — no need to keep track.

When it’s time to replace your septic system, Ready Rooter Excavating is “ready when you are!” We follow all Massachusetts Title V regulations and will:

• Provide an engineered drawing of the proposed system for you and your town’s health department to review and approve
• Obtain all necessary licenses and permits
• Install your new system in a timely manner
• Restore your landscaping to its original condition

Septic system replacement is offered by Patrick Sullivan’s company, Innovative Earthworks LLC d/b/a Ready Rooter Excavating, P.O. Box 89, Forestdale, MA 02644. Phone 508-509-0802 · [email protected]

The drain (leach) field is where the water part of household waste is directed, through paths of PVC pipe, chambers or gravel. When the lines stop absorbing wastewater it can back up into the home or break out to the ground, which makes the system “failing” under Title V. After a careful examination, if our technician determines restoration would be effective, we restore the field to working condition; if it’s beyond repair, the alternative is a septic system replacement.

When your business is booming, there’s no time for a grease blockage. We offer preventative maintenance plus immediate emergency response for commercial clients: we review your operations and customize a plan of regular, scheduled pumping and cleaning of your pipes and grease traps. If a backup does strike, make Ready Rooter your first call — day or night. We pump grease as well as septic Cape wide from Plymouth to Orleans.

Our transmitter and receiver pinpoint underground lines and minimize costly excavations. We locate septic tanks, distribution boxes, leach fields, buried manholes and anything else underground — saving your landscaping from unnecessary disruption.

The main line carries waste from your house to the septic tank and can develop cracks or leaks over time. We offer repair and replacement with the highest quality materials, and all workmanship and materials are guaranteed as long as you own your home. Two remedies for replacement:

• Traditional replacement — Dig Safe identifies the utility lines, we excavate and replace the broken pipe with durable schedule 40 PVC, then backfill and restore your landscaping.
• Trenchless Pipe Rehabilitation — we insert a Nu Flo liner into the existing pipe for a seamless passageway, avoiding disruption to expensive patios, driveways and landscaping.

Repair and replacement of residential and commercial pumps:

• Sewage ejector pumps — best when adding a basement bathroom; send fluids to a gravity sewer line
• Effluent pumps — stationed outside to pump septic effluent to a raised leaching field
• Sewage grinder pumps — generally used on sewer systems, not septic, housed in a lift station
• Lift station maintenance and repairs

We can often be on the job the same day you contact us, with full project descriptions and value quotes for your approval.
