Best Leak Detection in Portland OR

We were having our kitchen remolded so we decided to get our copper pipes replaced with pex, The estimator arrived right on time, was very friendly and explained how the re-pipe would happen, we decided to have repipe specialist patch the holes since I have no experience with drywall, the estimator said he thought there would be about 25 holes to patch so he gave me a quote for that number, when they were done there ended up being 12 holes to patch and not 25 so I feel the estimate was way too high, other than that they did a great job replacing the pipes the crew was very friendly and they were very efficient, I would highly recommend them for repiping.

I scheduled to have my bathroom sink pop drain fixed as it is leaking. First off I scheduled and they said there is no fee for them to come and assess issue. Then another call came and said that they do charge a service fee of $89. They then sent the first plumber to come. She said there is no leak, she did a flood test twice and there is no leak. This is despite me telling her there is a leak that is why I called you. So she went and charged me the $90 and told me that one of the plumbing pipe was not done the right way (not causing any issues) and if I want that fixed. I said we will pass for now as it is not broken. I went to check the sink again after just running the water for a few seconds and there it is...I see the leak.

So I called and informed them that if they charge me $90 that someone need to come again and reasses the leak. They made a call to the first plumber that came and they called me back and asked, Do you want the plumbing pipe fixed?. I said No, all I want fixed is the leaking pop drain and not something else that is not causing any
Problem.

I asked if they can send another person to look at it. The second time around, a very professional person Brian Buelt came with his apprentice. They wore booties to protect the floor which the first person did not. They went straight to work and fixed the problem. He did not charge me anything. Im so glad they fixed the issue and not waste my time w other stuff that I dont need.

Disappointed w the person answering their calls/schedules. Why is she asking me to get something else done that is working perfectly when in fact they have not even answered diagnosed and addressed the leak issue I am calling them for.

Greg came over the same day, was knowledgeable, helpful, kind, quick and professional.
5 stars all the way around.

Great company. I wish all of my service providers were this easy to deal with. Very professional and personable and they really know their stuff. They just went above and beyond all of my expectations. They showed up on time and the price I was quoted was firm and fair. My technicians were well organized and clean - very respectful of my home. I will definitely recommend them.

Keith came to our house to locate a leak in our sprinkler system which he found within the hour. His communication was excellent and he constantly checked in with us to see how long we wanted him to look for the extra 8 rainbird valves that were buried under the ground. He was very aware of cost to us which we appreciated..
We would not hesitate to use Keith again. So nice to deal with a genuine guy.

I called Cates Plumbing this past Wednesday because our water heater went out.  With three small boys in the house, it's imperative that we have working hot water for baths, washing hands, laundry, etc.    In addition, weather was forecasted to be five days of snow so we really needed this done in a hurry.  I called quite a list from Yelp to get someone out here ASAP.  Chris Cates called me back within probably 20 minutes and assured me he could come out that day, even though he did have two other calls already scheduled that morning.  I didn't care what time he was here, so long as we could hopefully get a resolution that day.

Chris arrived later that afternoon, and I'm sure he was beat from working on some tough plumbing issues.  Fortunately, our repair was EXTREMELY minor and he was able to resolve it within minutes.  He charged us a very minimal amount and showed me how to check for the same issue next time.  I also had him look at another issue we have that isn't immediate, but something we need to have fixed at a later time.  He explained what he thought the problem was and was very informative.   He is a very friendly, knowledgeable plumber, and we will definitely be using him for all of our future plumbing needs!

Sky Heating & Air Conditioning sent their representative Greg Douglass to my home to discuss options for a new heating system for my home.  Greg was very professional and knowledgeable.  He explained that for my particular needs, he would recommend either an electric ductless heat pump or a gas furnace.  After much thought and deliberation, I chose to replace my old gas furnace (beyond repair) with a new more efficient gas furnace.  The installation crew, Matthew and Kelly, installed the new furnace in one day and did a fine job.  The unit I chose was the most affordable gas furnace of those presented to me by 5 different heating contractors. The furnace works very well and I love the programmable thermostat..  Everyone at Sky Heating & Air Conditioning was professional, personable and more than happy to answer all my questions and concerns.  I highly recommend Sky Heating &  Air Conditioning.

While doing a remodel I ran into a plumbing issue and called around trying to find a plumbing company on short notice.  I ended up calling Simpson Plumbing and they were the only ones who could get me in on short notice.  They sent Kenny Heflin out who patiently worked through a difficult issue and got our kitchen water back up and running.  Kenny was thoughtful and had a positive attitude while he worked through the frustrating problem. Thank you Kenny and Simpson Plumbing. I will definitely be using you again.

This review is long overdue. Like another person said, Alan was able to do things that others couldn't. He put in the rough plumbing for a new bathroom in our 1905 house in a way that worked far better than those proposed by a couple of other plumbers we got quotes from. Not only is he a very good plumber, but he's also personable and easy to work with. And his rates are quite reasonable. We would definitely use him again.

These folks are AWESOME with a big 'A'.  A frozen water line due to the 'Big Freeze' in PDX today.  And these folks (Jeremy) was there within one hour. Severe water was running down interior walls throughout multiple levels of the house and with only our son Christopher who is living in the PDX place.  They isolated and drained frozen water lines . Thanks so much that Chris was there and notified me as it could have been much more nasty and destructive. And thanks so much that I knew of this great plumbing company (Cornel's).   Jeremy from Cornel's Plumbing was incredibly competent and knowledgeable tracing down the busted water line and isolating it to prevent further damage.  Folks in HI (where I live most of the year) are not used to severe cold like this... of course, climate change is 'Fake News'  according to the Orange one...

Right on time, friendly, quick service. Our job was small (clogged kitchen sink) but I didn't burn the day waiting around for someone to show--great service.

Also made recommendations how to prevent the clog in the future.

We were given Malmedal's name from a friend and I'm so pleased with their service. We needed a bathroom sink, faucet, and toilet plumbed. They were prompt in getting a plumber scheduled and Dave showed up before the scheduled time! What a nice surprise with a service call. The work was done quickly and Dave was professional and very friendly. Everything looks great and we will definitely call Malmedal whenever we need plumbing work done.

Disorganized, forgot the appointment, didn't call & couldn't reschedule with a definite time.

Got someone else.

Not the cheapest, but reliable, trustworthy, hard working team. Would hire them again.

Noticed a sluggish flow and leaking at the base in our downstairs bathroom. Turns out, there was a super long roots growing in our pipes! Mike was prompt, knowledgeable, and very professional. Will recommend to anyone with plumbing needs.

I had a slight plumbing emergency this morning and Nick was at my house less than two hours after I called. He was so knowledgeable and actually taught me quite a bit about the plumbing in my house. As a new homeowner, it's a relief to know that I have found my plumber. I definitely recommend Pacific Crest!

Chris provided fast service and addressed our multiple requests (shower drip, running toilet, broken hose bib) with aplomb. He even kept my energetic 6-year-old entertained, answering all his questions. We are a repeat customer and intend to keep it that way.

First time user. The service was good. The cost was twice what they quoted. Be aware, the clock is running from the time the hydro vac truck leaves their yard until it returns! I will check other options on future projects.

Roto rooter came to my rescue on a Sunday afternoon after another rescue rooter service stood me up after 5 hours of waiting.  I got a response in a few minutes and a technician was on the way to my house within an hour of my service call!  I had called a couple of other plumbing services and they pretty much told me to call them back on Monday to get on their schedule.  This was a slightly urgent matter and I really didn't want to wait until my basement was flooded.

Jacob cleared my basement drain rather quickly and he was very polite and knowledgeable.  He was able to assess the problem and it was taken care of the first time.  

Roto rooter was a little pricey but for the speed of service especially on a weekend it was worth it to me.

My downstairs toilet flooded with sewage etc. that covered the bathroom and hallway floors in the middle of the night. After figuring out that it was in a constant state of overflow and I was ill-equipped to handle it, I did a quick search and called Apollo to get someone out to take a look. It was around 4:30 AM or so when I called, they answered quickly and Justice was dispatched to my home at around 5:30. Super professional and informative, he worked with my HOA on a plan to move forward with repairs/clean-up and he even stayed to do as much cleaning as he could on his own. Definitely happy with my experience and will keep their number on hand if anything comes up in the future!
