Best Leak Detection in Seattle WA

We just moved into a condo in downtown Seattle. I came home late from work to the kitchen sink leaking. Husband was out of town. I called a bunch of plumbers -  all closed. Green Planet actually answered their phone and plumber, Luke, was able to come in, fix the problem at a reasonable cost. I was pretty impressed they were willing to work downtown (seems to be a problem to find contractors who will venture into the city). Only one of the other plumbers I called actually returned my call (Dave the Plumber). Bottom line, Green Planet communicated well, were highly responsive, respectful and even called me after the visit to make sure it was fixed. As a property manager, I'll be calling them again!

We had worked with 2 other plumbers on our new (very old) home before having Schuerman Plumbing come out. Not only were they prompt in getting back to me, but they were friendly, of great value, and did the work impeccably. We won't be calling anyone else for our plumbing needs in the future. Can't recommend them highly enough!

I had a really positive experience with Bill and Diane at West Seattle Sewer & Drain. Scheduling with Diane was pleasant and easy, and Bill arrived on time and diagnosed my kitchen sink leak in a matter of minutes and fixed it quickly. Pricing was more than fair, and not that I ever WANT to have to call a plumber again, but am happy to have a new go-to when I do!

It's Labor Day and we were doing a home repair. Of course something goes wrong and we break a pipe. Dave came right over and capped it off so we could at least have water in the rest of the house! He is a lifesaver. So thankful for honest , helpful small businesses like this! Thank you

After waiting weeks to make an appt to get someone to come by to give a quote for a tankless water heater, I didn't get the quote within 3 days as promised. After 1.5 weeks, I received a quote for the hardware but not the labor, and after several inquiries by text and phone, I heard nothing back. They ghosted me and I'm not sure why.

That said, Elvis is knowledgeable and friendly and I appreciated his explanations.

Can't say how awesome this company is. I was referred to them by Kings Plumbing for a clog we were having leaving both toilets unusable. Called them Thursday morning and with Stacia's help they were there in less then an hour. The guys were in and out in an hour and price was less then we thought. Definitely keep their number on file.

This review is for David Ovall from North Bend.
David came to my rescue to work on detecting a leak in my concrete slab. He discovered a hot water leak on the very spot where it was leaking. My plumber, through David's detection, was able to jack hammer into the slab and find the leak. It was amazing!!!

The leak has been stopped!!! Yahoo!!!

I also want to thank Lisa & Bobbie Sue for accommodating me by scheduling the appointment, and for conveying my gratitude for David's visit and helping me detect what could've been a disastrous endeavor.

Thank you all for your service! I spent $695.00 for this service and am giddy with gratitude helping me through a difficult plumbing situation.

Our hot water heater went out on a Sunday, after a few messages back and forth we scheduled a 8AM appointment for the next day for a tankless hot water heater to replace our leaking tank heater.  They showed up right on time and we're done in a couple hours.  A+ job    Will definitely have them do all our plumbing work in the future.

Needed some pipes moved for a window install and JAFCO was able to come out the day after the request and have a worker at my house 2 days later. Wyatt did an excellent professional job and kept me abreast of any and all issues. Great quick job, would highly recommend.

We had a clogged toilet in our upstairs bathroom.  We tried the snake thing and plunger but neither worked.  We called Blake Plumbing and spoke with Aaron to schedule the appointment.  He was very responsive, and said Brian would be doing the repair.  Brian showed up on time and fixed/unclogged our toilet.  He took 1 hour to complete the job and the price was reasonable.  So glad that we found a responsive, reliable, and reasonably priced plumber.  If we have future plumbing needs, we'll definitely call them again.

Got Glen's number from a friend and was told he's pretty busy. Called him on Wednesday and he said he was able to come out Friday afternoon, but it might be late and he would keep me posted. Got a call Thursday afternoon asking if he could come out in about an hour. Did take him very long to find the leak. Worth the money having him come out.

Never had to call a plumber before so I was unsure where to start.  I called Top Gun Plumbing and they came out within 24 hours and replaced a busted water pipe.  Jay was responsive and professional.  Price was fair and less than I anticipated.  Will know who to call next time!

Good products, reasonable prices, VERY good service
Will use them again and would recommend to anyone else who needs plumbing work also

Good work, excellent efficiency, and great communication from Otter plumbing! We had to get all of our pipes replaced and we are really glad we went with this company. Mike and his guys did some great work!

I ended up not needing their service, but Brandon took the time on both a Sunday and first thing Monday to determine that a suspected water leak was just groundwater. No charge. I hope I don't need their services any time soon, but if I have plumbing issues in the future they'll be the first ones I call!

We needed a sewer scope to include with the documentation for selling our house.  The Company needed to reschedule and knocked $50 off the $250 they charge for this service.  So far, so good.  The plumber shows up and finds our clean out is inaccessible due to a stripped screw holding the cover in place.  He decides the best route is to remove the toilet and perform the scope from there.  He is super polite and didn't charge us for the additional effort required.  Still, so far, so good.  The scope work is performed and we are told there is a small root intrusion in the line.  Now the fun begins...  how small is small and how far out is it located?  We can't tell you, we don't know - you can see the video.  We explain that we need a accurate report for our documentation. The plumber then prepares our bill and results but includes a reference to $5300 of recommended work.  

We have had no issues with this sewer.  Adding a recommendation to the scope is not going to look good to a potential buyer.  We ask for the recommendation to be separated out from the bill.  Okay, they can do that.  But, the invoice still shows the reference to the recommendation.  We did not ask for a recommendation, just the scope.  The plumber seemed to understand but referred it to his supervisor.  The supervisor doesn't seem to understand.  All they appear to want is to attach this $5300 to somebody - either us or a potential buyer.  Did I mention that there are no problems with our sewer.  We merely want full disclosure and the buyer can go from there.  This recommendation that Mr. Rooter refuses to remove is a scare tactic that could affect the sale of our house.

Thank goodness we're only out $200 and totally irritated with trying to explain this issue over and over again to only be stone walled.  The solution is to use a different scoping service and make sure they understand what we need before we hire them.

Now, my personal rant.  Listening to their male centric misogynistic phone hold advertising is disgusting.  Even though my husband handled this issue, I'm a trades woman and am skilled in construction and know more than average.  Why Mr. Rooter doesn't supply their plumbers with a screw extractor or the skills required to simply remove a stripped screw is beyond me... Why the company can't provide a simple scoping of the line without an upsell is frustrating.  We will not recommend their services or use them in the future.

Update:  Just got the written estimate.  Not even close to what we asked them to do.  This place is only going to try to get into your pockets as deep as they can.  We asked for an accurate scope of the sewer line (that's what we paid for).

Professional, honest and didn't waste any time fixing our leak! Very fairly priced. Hoping I won't need them again but if I do, they are first on my list of plumbers to call!

What a great experience I had today with Allred's Mechanical Solutions, LLC. I had a water main leak and no water. I called Allred's Mechanical solutions LLC at the recommendation of Corinne Harpster ND. They had no openings until Friday to be able to help us! I shared with Todd my reasoning for the urgency to get the job done so I may need to call in a different plumber. Less then 10 minuets later Todd the owner called me back and said he could work in a temporary fix this afternoon that would hold me off until he could fix things properly! He showed up gave us water and saved the day. I think Todd and his son Josh should be wearing super hero capes! In a world where it feels most people really don't care about others Todd and Josh showed what real humanity and kindness are! Thanks for making a horrible day so much better!

CRAZY PRICES!!!  Called SWP for an estimate to repair a few issues around the house.  After reviewing the estimate, almost choked.  Any idea how much to install hammer arrestors?  Try $315.  Any idea how much to rebuild toilet tank?   Try $274.  Walk into your local home improvement or plumbing supply store and price these items out and you'll discover their labor/mark up is HUGE.  Needless to say, I wrote a check for the dispatch fee and said adios.  I will say they were courteous, on-time- but way over priced.

We wanted a utility sink installed and called these guys up as they had done some work for the previous owners of the house.

Two techs showed up and didn't seem too thrilled to be there. They looked over the existing plumbing and made it sound like an easy job. I asked for a quote and was blown away by how high it was. After literally 5 minutes of discussion, they cut the price in half. Even then I felt it was way over priced. I said I would think about it and get back to them.

Next day I called a diff plumber that we have used before and based on a picture I had taken, he was able to quote me over the phone a price that was 1/4 of the half price quote these guys gave me.

Needless to say I kissed the $110 service call fee goodbye and chose the plumber we had used before.
