Sewer Rooting and Jetting
Our sewer rooting and hydro jetting services clear blockages using high-pressure water technology. This method effectively removes tree roots, grease buildup, and other obstructions from sewer lines. Available for both emergency and preventive maintenance, our licensed technicians ensure minimal property disruption while restoring optimal drainage function for residential and commercial properties.
Water Heater Installation
We provide tank and tankless water heater installation, repair, and maintenance services. Our certified technicians handle both traditional storage units and modern energy-efficient models. All installations meet local building codes with warranties on parts and labor. We help customers choose the right capacity system for their household or business needs.

Professional drain line rooting removes tree root intrusions and stubborn clogs using mechanical augers. This service restores proper water flow in main sewer lines and individual drains. We use camera inspections to identify blockage locations before performing targeted clearing operations for both residential and commercial clients.

Our licensed plumbers install, repair, and maintain natural gas and propane lines for residential and commercial properties. Services include leak detection, line replacement, and appliance hookups. We follow strict safety protocols for gas system work, ensuring proper ventilation and pressure testing to meet all local safety regulations.

Called Gateway Rooter for a gas leak issue, Nick showed up within an hour, did a full inspection. Found two trouble spots that needed to be addressed, did not charge for the inspection and completed the job needed. Will call Gateway Rooter for any other plumbing issues in the future. Highly recommend Gateway Rooter to anyone.

Came out to my place in echo park in less than 1 hour after 5pm on a Tuesday. Did an excellent job on a clog and patch that I had. Will call again if I need any more plumbing done.

I've called Gateway twice now and Nick always shows up on time, he's honest, courteous, does phenomenal work, and his prices are great. He sent me an estimate for some other work that same day. Nick genuinely cares and takes the time to do the job right.
