One is a branch of a company that has been around since 1935. The other is a three-generation family shop from the next town up. Here is what each says about itself.
Roto-Rooter Plumbing & Water Cleanup runs its Cedar Park branch from Polar Lane, under a licence the state list places in Austin, and its service area reaches San Marcos and Lockhart. Vaquero Plumbing is based in Liberty Hill and Cedar Park is fifteen minutes down 183. Both list drain cleaning, water heaters, slab leaks and emergency work. The differences are the size of the map, water damage restoration, and who holds the licence.
Everything below about Roto-Rooter Plumbing & Water Cleanup comes from their own Cedar Park page and from the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners’ public licensee list, read on September 20, 2026. Where their page does not say something, the table says so. Everything about Vaquero Plumbing comes from our own pages and the same state list.

Their column is read from www.rotorooter.com/cedarparktx and the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners’ public licensee list on September 20, 2026. Ours is read from vaqueroplumbing.com and the same list on the same day. If a cell is out of date, call 512-893-8705 and we will fix it.
Both companies are licensed by the State of Texas, both list Cedar Park, Leander, Round Rock, Georgetown and Austin, and both do drain cleaning, water heaters and slab leaks. If the job is water damage cleanup after the plumbing is fixed, that is on their list and not ours. If it is a softener, a gas line, or a repair you want a two-year term on, call us.

No. We stop the leak and repair the plumbing. Drying and restoring the house afterwards is a separate trade; Roto-Rooter’s Cedar Park page lists it and ours does not.
