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.

This position is paid on a commission basis with a guaranteed minimum hourly rate.  This averages out to a salary range of $55,000-$100,000 per year. Pay increases quickly with each year of experience. 


  • Roto-Rooter plumbing apprentices/service technicians utilize their skills to provide effective solutions for plumbing and drain issues, ensuring customer satisfaction.
  • A plumbing service call commences with diagnosing issues and offering cost estimates to finalize the transaction.
  • Make the necessary repairs for the customer.
  • Document estimates and invoices, both in writing and on a provided smart phone.
  • Collect payment and move on to the next service call.

  • A valid driver’s license.
  • Excellent communications skills.
  • A mechanical aptitude is desirable, but prior plumbing experience is not necessary.

At Roto-Rooter, we believe our most significant investment is in our employees.  We prioritize the health and well-being of our team and their families. That’s why we offer an extensive employee benefit package including:

  • Medical insurance with a Prescription Drug Card
  • Accident and Critical Illness Insurance

  • Paid Vacation
  • Paid Training
  • Life Insurance
  • Matching 401K Retirement Savings Plan
