Best Plumbing Services in Portland OR

Curtis came out in the rain to replace our broken outdoor faucet.  He arrived on time, provided fast service and his prices are reasonable.  He really knows his stuff; he's friendly and professional.  Definitely would recommend him and hire him again for our plumbing needs..

Cleared our storm drain in minutes with the hydro jet.  These guys know their stuff.

Awesome experience today!!!  We were in urgent need of a plumber... called them yesterday & lucky for us, they had a cancellation today!  Roy came out & fixed our problem with a quickness!  Highly recommend!!!!

Super responsive. I was surprised at how quickly they responded and how quickly someone could come out. There was no up selling which was very much appreciated. I'd call them in a minute should a need arise again. Very friendly and polite too!

Jason was very helpful, thorough, got the job done quick, didn't mind the mess, made a couple recommendations. A pleasant experience and I feel confident about the work.

Called this morning to have new piping put in under bathroom sink.  Terry was able to work me in and he did a great job!  I highly recommend him.

Cameron (Cam) from Sutherland Plumbing was so great. He arrived very promptly, wore booties and a mask. He gave me full confidence that he is skilled in his profession by explaining everything in detail. He took his time and although our requests were small ones, I never felt like he was rushing. I felt that the company's pricing was very fair, compared with 2 other well-rated companies found on yelp (who both, by the way, did not have availability until February). I'll be keeping their contact in my phone for any future plumbing needs. Thanks so much!

Guests staying in our home clogged up our toilet. Dave came within hours when most places I called had earliest availability weeks later. When he arrived, he got straight to work and fixed the problem completely in no time. We were so impressed with Dave's communication and BEYOND grateful for the 5 star service he provided. Seriously, call Dave. You'll be happy you did.

Simpson Plumbing has entered my home numerous times to re pipe my home, move a pipe or change some valves around. Each time the company and their representatives are kind, punctual, knowledgeable and very good at cleaning up any mess made. Always respectful.  Will continue to use them for my plumbing needs. Thank you!

I came home from work yesterday to a plugged kitchen sink that I made much worse by fixing it myself. I left a message for Burfitt around 8 pm and they responded first thing in the morning. Even better, they were able to get Alan there in just a few hours. He fixed the sink, the price was right, and he was super pleasant to work with.  I'm so grateful it was such an easy process. Will definitely keep them as my go to when I need a plumber.

Brent, son of the late Rex answered the phone promptly, called me back promptly after getting my details and came and left in a flash.  Nothing was obviously wrong with my water heater and he gave an explanation of how it worked and answered a couple questions I had.  This man deserves your business even if he didn't fix my problem as there was only a slight adjustment needed.  Not your typical plumber in a very good way.

Kevin did a great job! He responded within minutes of my request for a quote--he even suggested i call 3 other plumbers for quotes, which I did and he was right: his price was the same or less then all three I called. He was able to come out, confirm the quote and have a new hot water heater installed THAT DAY. I'm sure not all days are that open and we got lucky, but he was great and we are thankful! He answered all our questions thoroughly and brought our new hotwater heater up to code--where the old one wasn't as well as changed out the stand in sits on for a new metal one. I would definitely use him again!

Danaya was the third plumber I had out to fix a mystery leak, and the only one to solve my problem.  Rather than assuming where the leak was, like the previous plumbers,  Danaya methodically tested the plumbing and determined what needed to be fixed.  She then took much greater care in the repair and my leaking has stopped.  The problem was actually quite simple, a poorly caulked face plate, and the prior two plumbers had re-caulked this same spot, among other expensive and ineffective trouble shooting measures, with no success.

Danaya will be my go to plumber from now on.  Had I called her first I would have saved over $450 in plumbing bills and an expensive  upcoming repair to fix my ceiling.  I also appreciated Danaya calling me back within 24 hours and having a reasonable hourly rate.

the gentleman who repaired my water heater Chip.  I called I Sunday evening and he was here first thing Monday morning. It took him perhaps 90 minutes.  He repaired what was broken, didn't try to sell a new one when I only needed an element.  I was impressed with his work ethics. I would hope all Simpsons Plumbing are as well.

A root broke the water line to the house. Turned off the water at the street. We had no water in the house.
A neighbor referred us to Hillsboro Plumbing.
Suzy in the office was great to work with.
They scheduled the utility location and came out right after locations were done.
Travis did the work and was very knowledgeable and friendly.
My son and I helped him dig and cut roots.  
3 ft down we found the problem, a cracked connector under a root.
He repaired it and was finished in less than 2 hours.
After 2 hrs to let the PVC cement cure I turned the water back on and it is working fine.

I would definitely go back to Hillsboro pluming again.

Sky repaired our aged AC promptly. We did need a new system and after reviewing others, ended up using Sky. Braxton,Bradley, Kelly, Braden, Dan and Niko all provided quality service-Responsive, efficient, articulate and economical. We are very happy.

Very disappointed in this company he promised me a delivery with a start time 4 weeks ago to complete my home so my family and I could move in. Chris left me high and dry with absolutely no communication and now I have a rent and a mortgage payment. Thanks for wasting my time.

I called River City to repair my septic system in Tillamook. After a very rainy January, my shower and toilet were backing up due to too much water in the drainfields. Chad with River City recommended proceeding on a time and materials basis, since the location is a ways out of Portland - he could diagnose the problem and repair in one fell swoop over 2-3 days. River City required a 5000 credit card hold prior to proceeding, and in looking over the rates list I signed, I didn't expect the bill to be much more than that.

Fast forward 3 months: the shower and toilet is backing up again much worse: sewage including feces in the shower. My entire yard is a swampy mess with up to 14 of standing water in many places, including behind the house where they created a sort of pit through their excavation where surface water can't flow out of. Water is visibly infiltrating into my garage, and could be seeping into the lower level of my house as well which is at the same elevation. My underground rain drain pipe was crushed during construction. Every square inch of my yard was dug up and is too muddy to walk on, and there is Styrofoam poly aggregate (basically artificial gravel which looks like packing peanuts) mixed in with the soil all over the yard. My renters, who have 2 dogs, have not been able to use the yard since January.

The price tag for this was $17,690.25.

The state of my property is much worse, and everything that was done to divert water needs to be redone likely exceeding that amount. I have hired a local contractor to excavate and replace the crushed rain drain and to clean up the poly aggregate. I hired another septic company to siphon the standing water behind the house that is not draining, and drain excess water from my holding tank. I am getting a bid this week for a landscape architect to remove and replace a defunct ground water interceptor - this is basically a French Drain to divert excess ground water that was getting into the septic system. The system River City used has a perforated drain pipe that comes bundled with Styrofoam poly aggregate, wrapped in a geo fabric to provide drainage, rather than the traditional gravel-based drainage systems - supposedly it is a proven system that costs less and is fast to install, if installed correctly. Somehow many of these bundles burst all along the trench line, spewing chunks of Styrofoam all over the yard. From what my contractor observed, the pipes are not even connected in places, and in some cases there is no pipe, just Styrofoam in torn fabric a hole with clay soil fusing to the Styrofoam pieces. In some areas the drain pipe is above the ground. The soil is on my property is mostly clay, and the usual precautions you would use with a soil that does not drain, like additional geo filter fabric, backfilling with a pervious soil etc. was not done. Additionally the grading done does not direct surface water away from the house, instead a low point was created behind the house where water is trapped and just ponds. Normally you would channel the water away from - rather than toward the foundation. The crew had 3 days with an excavator at 1200/day, and this was the result.

I had a phone conversation with the Chad and the office manager about the issues and the bill. I acknowledged that the the shower and toilet seemed to be draining and other maintenance to the septic lines were done, and I authorized a 5000 partial payment on my credit card. Chad agreed to return in April to fix some of the issues, and make some adjustments to the bill. Meanwhile I discovered that feces and toilet paper were piling up behind the house through a sewage line that had been broken during construction. River City repaired that broken pipe, but then I got an email from the contracts manager, Mick letting me know that Chad and the foreman were taken off the project, and all communications had to go through him. In trying to figure out how to remedy the problems, I asked Mick what products were used, placement of underground elements, whether my raindrains were altered or combined with this new drain line, and a conversation that was supposedly had with my neighbor to daylight the ground water onto his property. Mick would only reply by saying things like the amount owing currently is $13,175.25.  We can put you on a payment plan if you like.

At about 6 weeks after the invoice that I disputed was received, Mick filed a lien on my property (wrongly naming my neighbor as the owner initially - causing a great deal of anxiety) with the intent to foreclose if I didn't pay them in full, plus the 500 filing fee.

I hired a mediator so we could have a conversation and work things out, River City refused to mediate. Yesterday I received a letter from Mick demanding payment in 10 days, saying that their work was per industry standards and that their invoice was not overstated.

A clog in the main drainage line from our kitchen sink caused a flood when I took a shower upstairs this morning. The kitchen sink overflowed onto the counters and floor. Roto-Rooter was the only company I called who could help us today, and the technician (Sam) arrived within a couple of hours. He was very professional and courteous, and he resolved the problem completely in about an hour. The cost was on the high side but the job was done quickly and properly and includes a six month warranty. I would definitely recommend this company based on our experience.

Plus side: Pat was friendly and communicated well. Down side: This was an expensive repair ($1,625) for work that took Pat 3 hours to complete. We received a limited-detail estimate of $1,625 after Pat came out to investigate a toilet that was unstable/rocking and water refilling slowly. The toilet had a crack in it, but Pat first told us it would not need to be replaced. He determined that the flange needed replacement and that there was some wood rot below the toilet that needed repair. Because M5 Plumbing advertises their ability to do full-service bathroom remodeling, including flooring replacement, we decided to go with them. 3/4 particle board was installed on the basement ceiling from below the toilet to sandwich the old flooring and allow for the new flange and toilet to be installed. We requested a more detailed cost estimate which showed we were charged $375 to pull & reset toilet, $675 to remove and replace flange, and $575 for flooring repair, remove failed section of flooring, install new 3/4 plywood beneath floor, install new base for toilet, reinstall to tie flange to substrate.
On day of repair, at the last minute, Pat determined that the toilet indeed needed to be replaced, so we had to buy a toilet for him to pick up from Home Depot. Cost us $1,745 for the whole project which took him only 3 hours to complete. My sister is living in this (our) home, so we wanted to be sure it is working properly and all is well, but we live across the country. It's hard to manage home maintenance repair from a distance. I wish we hadn't been so hasty in our hiring decision. We do not plan to work with M5 Plumbing again. It was too costly for such a simple project. We questioned the flange replacement charge at $675 on top of the $375 toilet pull and set (seems like a double-charge of $375, as the toilet pull and set should be obvious in a flange replacement), but he stood by that cost. We probably could have flown across country, done the job ourselves, and got a family visit out of it for less than what he charged us. But, alas. We made a mistake.
Additionally, this is COVID pandemic season, and he failed to wear a mask during the work. He showed up with a mask for the estimate, but did the work mask-free. Disrespectful, at the least.
Finally, he left a mess: garbage bag in the bathtub, scraps all over the floor, and an old toilet lid. We hoped this would be a good experience so we could continue to work with him for future work, but this won't be happening.
