Credentials & honors

Bulldog Rooter works across Spokane, Spokane Valley, Liberty Lake, Cheney, Deer Park and over the state line in Coeur d'Alene, Post Falls and Hayden. Drains and sewer lines are the core of it: main line clearing, camera inspection, sewer repair and trenchless pipe repair, alongside leak fixes and water heater work. The company says it has operated since 2007, is family-owned, and advertises round-the-clock emergency service, Sundays included.

The state insures Bulldog Rooter under sewer pipe cleaning, which matches the work it advertises. Licence-matched permits from 2023 onward cover residential sewer jobs in Spokane, mechanical work in Mead, and plumbing and mechanical permits in Spokane Valley. Public work runs back to 2013, often as prime contractor, for the Spokane Housing Authority, Spokane Transit Authority, Spokane County Fire District 8, the City of Cheney, and the Mead, Valley and Spokane school districts. The crew is in the 31 to 50 band, the firm is a WA lead-safe certified renovation firm, and it installs Navien and Bradford White water heaters. The state lists Butch Jumalon as a principal since 2021 and Christopher Allen since 2023. This is a large residential service outfit built around quick calls: a backed-up main line, a failed water heater, a sewer scope before buying an older house. Tankless flushing and trenchless repair are on the menu too, and the company claims a workmanship guarantee. Its work stays in plumbing and mechanical systems, so a remodel that also needs electrical or HVAC rough-in will need other trades alongside. Spokane's freeze-thaw cycle is hard on buried sewer lines. Older clay and cast-iron laterals in neighborhoods like the South Hill shift and crack, and roots push into joints through the dry summer, so backups often show up in fall and winter. Scoping a line in late summer or early fall, before the ground freezes, leaves room to dig or line it in workable soil. Hard Spokane-area water also builds scale in water heaters, which is why a yearly flush on a tankless unit pays off.
