Contact Rosco Plumbing

Most appointments can be scheduled within 1-2 business days. For maintenance plan members, we offer same-day and next-day priority scheduling. Emergency calls are handled 24/7 — call (941) 345-2464 any time.

We serve Bradenton, Palmetto, Lakewood Ranch, Ellenton, Parrish, Anna Maria Island, Longboat Key, and the greater Manatee County area. We also serve many 55+ communities throughout the region.

Not for in-home visits. A phone call to describe the problem costs nothing, and you'll hear what the visit costs before anyone comes out. An in-home visit is a service call ($75–$150) that covers the trip and diagnosis and is applied toward the job if you go ahead. You get a clear written price before any work begins — no surprise charges.

We accept cash, personal checks, and all major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover). Payment is due upon completion of work. For larger projects like whole-house repiping or bathroom remodeling, we can discuss payment arrangements.

Shut off the water at the nearest valve or the main shutoff (usually near the front of your house where the water line enters from the street). If you smell gas, leave the house immediately and call 911. Then call us at (941) 345-2464. Keep away from standing water near electrical outlets, and take photos of any damage for insurance purposes. Our emergency plumbing page has more detailed steps.

Yes. We regularly service gated and 55+ communities throughout Manatee County. We're familiar with gate access procedures, HOA requirements, and the common plumbing systems in communities like Del Webb, Heritage Harbour, Cresswind, and Tara Golf.

Most common repairs — faucet repair, toilet repair, garbage disposal replacement — take under an hour. Drain cleaning is typically 30-90 minutes. Water heater replacement takes 2-4 hours. Larger projects like repiping take 1-3 days. We'll give you a time estimate before we start.

Our service call fee is $75-$150, which covers the trip to your home and diagnosis. If you proceed with the repair, the service call fee is applied toward the total cost — so you're only paying for the work itself. We always provide a complete estimate before starting any work.

Our annual maintenance plan ($149/year) gives members 10% off all repairs, priority scheduling, and no after-hours emergency fees. This is our most popular offering in Bradenton's 55+ communities and provides the best ongoing value for homeowners on fixed incomes.

Absolutely. Email us at service@roscoplumbing.com or use the contact form on this page. We respond within one business hour during normal hours (Mon–Fri: 7 AM – 6 PM). For emergencies, always call (941) 345-2464 — a real person answers 24/7.

We stay involved after every job. If a repair performed by our licensed plumbing partner fails within the warranty period, we'll coordinate the fix at no additional charge to you. Parts carry the manufacturer's warranty. For PEX repiping, the pipe itself carries a 25-year warranty.

Yes. Our licensed plumbing partner's technicians wear shoe covers, lay down drop cloths when working inside, and clean up completely before they leave. You shouldn't have to clean up after a repair — that's part of the standard we hold every visit to. We treat your home like it's our own.

Yes. Whether it's a faucet, toilet, garbage disposal, or other fixture you've purchased yourself, our licensed plumbing partner is happy to install it, and we'll verify compatibility with your existing plumbing before work starts. If you'd rather have the fixture supplied for you, we can arrange quality brands at fair prices.

For work that requires permits — such as bathroom remodeling, repiping, and water heater installation — our licensed plumbing partner pulls the permits and schedules the inspections. We coordinate that process and stay your point of contact the whole way through, so you don't have to deal with the city at all. Every job is held to Florida plumbing codes.

We can coordinate with a trusted neighbor, family member, or in gated communities, with the management office. For maintenance plan visits, many of our seasonal residents leave a key with a neighbor and we coordinate the visit. We'll always provide before-and-after documentation.

Regular appointments are available Mon–Fri: 7 AM – 6 PM and Sat: 8 AM – 2 PM. Emergency service is available 24/7, including Sundays and holidays. There is a modest after-hours fee for non-emergency weekend calls.

If water is actively flooding, a pipe has burst, you have a sewer backup, you smell gas, or you have no water at all — it's an emergency. Call us immediately at (941) 345-2464. If it's a drip, a slow drain, or a running toilet, those can usually wait for a regular appointment. When in doubt, call us and we'll help you decide. Visit our FAQ page for more guidance.

Yes. Ask when you call and we're happy to provide references from homeowners in your neighborhood or community. Learn more about us.

We understand plans change. If you need to cancel or reschedule, just call us as early as possible — same day is fine, we won't charge you. We only ask that you let us know so we can offer the slot to another homeowner who needs help.

You shouldn't have to wait on hold — a real person answers our phone at (941) 345-2464. If we're on another call, leave a message and we'll call you back within 15 minutes during business hours. You can also submit a request through our contact form on this page.
