What You'll Do

As a Residential Drain Technician, you'll respond to residential drain and sewer service calls, inspect and clear clogged drain lines, identify the source of recurring plumbing issues, and provide homeowners with honest recommendations for long-term solutions. You'll evaluate the condition of drain and sewer systems, perform drain cleaning services, document findings using ServiceTitan, and communicate clearly with customers throughout the service process.

You'll work independently while maintaining close communication with the office team, ensuring every customer receives professional service and every job is completed safely, efficiently, and with attention to detail. As your skills develop, you'll have opportunities to assist with plumbing repairs, sewer line replacements, and additional residential plumbing services.

What We're Looking For

We're seeking candidates with previous drain cleaning or residential plumbing experience who have strong troubleshooting skills and a passion for solving problems. Successful candidates can identify issues beyond the immediate blockage, communicate recommendations clearly, and provide homeowners with outstanding customer service.

Experience using ServiceTitan or similar field service software is preferred but not required. Applicants should be dependable, organized, self-motivated, and comfortable managing service calls independently while maintaining high standards of workmanship and professionalism.

A valid driver's license with a clean driving record is required.

Who Thrives on Our Team?

The technicians who succeed at American Rooter Plumbing enjoy hands-on work, take pride in diagnosing the root cause of plumbing problems, and focus on delivering lasting solutions. They value honest communication, continuous learning, and the opportunity to increase both their technical skills and earning potential while working in a positive, team-oriented environment.
