Overview
Apprentice Plumber
Founded in 1935, Roto-Rooter is North America's largest plumbing, drain cleaning, and water cleanup services provider.

First year Roto-Rooter service technicians can expect top-pay, earning $65,000-$75,000, on average. Pay increases quickly with each year of experience.
Roto-Rooter provides an initial 12 weeks of paid training plus continual training in our plumbing school. You'll earn while you learn the trade, and we'll guide you through the plumber licensing process to help you advance.
