Dirt Cheap Sewer

We are extremely pleased with Dirt Cheap's repair/upgrade of our sewer line.  After 70 years of operation, we were looking to replace an exterior sewer pipe.  Every 2 to 3 years we would have to get a plumber to cut out the roots clogging our sewer line.  The last time it happened was December 24th.

It was a multi year process to find the right company to do the job.  We received 4-5 bids.  Dirt Cheap had the least invasive solution, had the best warranty (25-year Transferable Warranty), and had the best price.  The workers were experienced, worked hard and were a pleasure to work with.

They installed 2 liners and replaced one long sewer pipe.  The materials were all first rate.  After installation, the team pressure tested the system and the city inspector gave final approval to the project.

This is a very ethical company with high standards.  After the dirt and original turf were put back in place, the area looked as good as before.  There is no point showing the before and after pictures of the yard, because the pictures look identical.  

I have absolutely no problem recommending Dirt Cheap for your sewer line needs.  Thank you to the gang at Dirt Cheap!!

We had a waterline break due to the freezing cold weather. Collin and his team came out to fix the problem and made my issue a priority. The team was responsive and timely, they fixed/repaired the issue, were cost effective (as indicated in the name) and allowed us to have water once again. Thanks Dirt Cheap Sewer!

I really appreciated the quick response, expertise level, and explanations. So easy to work with. Would definitely call them again.

Dirt cheap plumbing is amazing.  I don't normally write reviews, but this company, and specifically Angel, blew me away.  Above being priced much more competitively than the competition, Angel went above and beyond to help me with other plumbing issues that were needed when my sewer backed up and flooded my basement.  He and the entire team were very professional and expedient with putting in a liner for my sewer, but also helped me with leaks and flooding in the basement when the water mitigation company messed up and left incomplete multiple plumbing issues.  Katheryn was also very on top and timely with payment issues.  If I could give 10 stars, I would.

I am so very grateful I decided to go with Dirt Cheap! When I was advised to have my outside water line replaced (43yo house) I was incredibly stressed and overwhelmed. I was told the whole process would be astronomical and invasive so even though I wanted to get it taken care of I was also putting off the call. I felt very reassured as soon as Kathy answered the call. She was comforting and empathetic and was able to have Sergio come out to my house the next day. He and his team were very respectful and professional from beginning to end. I felt very comfortable and knew my home was in capable hands. I could just relax and trust them. Sergio was very communicative all throughout, explaining the work, along with being patient in answering all of my questions. They use high-quality tools and
materials as well. At the end of each day the crew made sure to clean up carefully. Now when I turn on the water I don't feel sick wondering if another leak is brewing and how much money I would be throwing at just putting a band-aid on the problem. I recommend them without a doubt! Thank you Dirt Cheap!

They came out the same day that our old sewer line backed up from the heavy rains we had a couple months ago. Cannot beleive how honest they were. It is an old line that has not been used for decades. They said I could easily, effectively and cheaply fix the problem with hydrolic cement. And he did not even charge for the visit. I felt bad about that an offered to pay something which he refused. Next job I have is going to Dirt Cheap Sewer!
Thanks

We had a sewer back up in our basement so I contacted Dirt Cheap Sewer. They had Angel out to our house within hours. I could not believe it.
Angel was amazing. He diagnosed the situation and using his knowledge of sewer systems, even is our very old house, he SOLVED THE PROBLEM right then!
I highly recommend Dirt Cheap Sewers.  When needed, we will definitely use them again.
Our whole experience was 5 star.

These guys are AMAZING!!!!
Angel  is amazing! He came out on a Sunday , found my problem and I hired him on the spot...didn't even get another bid. He was honest and explained everything very thoroughly and his crew was out the next day. They work so hard and  they did a fabulous job!! I  am recommending them to anyone who has a sewer issue!
THEY ARE NTHE BEST!

Amazing customer service. Katheryn is on top of her game, answers emails in timely manner each time. I believe i contacted them for a quote through angie's list and i got a call back from her within an hour or so. Our project was not urgent one yet we had it done pretty fast (something like within a week or two?).
The workers were also very efficient and thorough. We had quite a digging going on, but when they were done it was hard to tell that there was anything going on at all. They took great care not to ruin our lawn beyond necessary (they used plywood under the wheels of the digger so that the damage was minimized) and then they took an entire day to clean up. They even washed the sidewalk and planted grass seeds on the disturbed lawn areas! We were very impressed and relieved we didn't have to do any of that :)

I love this company and its technician, Mr. Cervantes. I really feel badly for not writing this review earlier.

I was assigned a project at work and called four different companies to come out and give us a bid on a broken water main at our business.  DC was the most thorough, straightforward and professional of the bunch.

DC's technician, Mr. Cervantes was a real expert and he was punctual, polite and very thorough. He even came out a 2nd time (prior to submitting the bid), to photograph our water main and pipes. My boss told me how impressed he was with Mr. Cervantes' service and demeanor.

I felt so bad not getting approval from our landlord (King County), on this project for over two months. Can't wait for DC Plumbing and Mr. Cervantes to start the work and provide us with water again in our industrial yard.

Great service for reasonable cost. We had a drain line for our downspouts that was clogged, so that in a hard rain the water would back up into our house. Not good. They came out and fixed it in no time, and described an easy fix so it won't happen again. These guys rock.

Between our 2 properties, we have used Dirt Cheap on 3 occasions and on each job, they have not disappointed. This group of folks, start to finish, is so polite, knowledgeable, communicative, hardworking and very HONEST. They might not be the biggest outfit but we have no complaints. There are several good companies that do great work but we always come back to Dirt Cheap because the pricing is hard to beat and we don't feel like there is any drop-off in work product quality by paying less.  Dirt Cheap is a really good company with a level of integrity that is quite refreshing in a very competitive field. Angel Cervantes and Kathy Myers were are field and office contacts respectively and we feel like we were in great hands throughout the process!  The most recent breech was at our primary residence and it was a major repair. One doesn't spend 30K lightly but because of our history with Dirt Cheap, we felt confident they had represented the damage accurately and presented us with a remedy plan that would be cost effective and long term. We are very pleased with the outcome and happy to write this review.

The reviews about this crew are true, I also had a great experience with Dirt Cheap Sewers for a complete sewer replacement.  From Angel initially determining the cause and location of the problem, to offering every option available and on the spot estimating with fair pricing, to delivering on exactly the promise made.  Day one, they trenched by hand, in the cramped space under the deck, replaced the root destroyed pipe, and had me back in action by the end of the day.  The remaining days also required hand trenching to protect a slope sensitive tree line, and even without requesting it, I watched them take care to not hurt the large primary root structures of the trees, digging under and around them to access the old line, only cutting a few that needed it.  This type of care was demonstrated throughout.

Accessing the portion under the house required cutting the slab, and a touch of jack hammering, but before the work began, Austin and Poncho took the time to seal off the rest of the house, as well as some belongings left in the basement.   This crew works hard, staying as late as it took each night to finish the days portion of work and get me reconnected, while being receptive to my questions or specific requests.  Then, at the end of it all, after back-filling and pouring me a beautiful cement patch, gifting me two new and more convenient clean outs, they literally cleaned my basement better than they found it.

This is a stellar crew, very easy to work with, and I am extremely pleased with the result.  I definitely feel like I got my money's worth with these guys.

Angel is amazing! Our neighbor said that our shared sewer was backed up and charged us for half the work. Their sewer guy was rude and angry at us. Ends up we aren't even on their line! Angel scoped the line, showed us the video, showed up where it was in the yard and helped me find the City sewer card. This was all part of a free estimate to put in a cleanout if we wanted one. Angel was kind, knowledgeable and thorough.

We just moved into a newly purchased home and found out the water main line just outside the front door was leaking - water came out of the ground and water meter moved very fast. Fortunately we found Dirt Cheap - the owner came to checkout the issue without charging us trip fee and gave us a very reasonable quote for replacing the main line. Katheryn is amazing in answering our questions and quickly working out details and schedules. The crew did a great job quickly replacing the water main line, installing a main water switch off and a yard hydrant, and clearing up the field and recovering lawn - all finished in two days with professional manner. We are very satisfied with and thankful for their work and would highly recommend their services. We'll definitely hire them again for any plumbing work in the future.

Dirt Cheap gave a great and very comprehensive estimate and explained everything to me in great detail. I was really overwhelmed with a flooding issue at my rental, but they were amazing. The price was perfect, the work was done faster than expected. Oh, and their work crew was freaking amazing! Every single person on my job was super nice. It was cool to watch the project as it was being done and to see that the trenches went exactly where they explained they would be. Such a good experience!

I had the unfortunate circumstance of a water line leak from my meter to my house. Dirt Cheap was the first vendor to come out to my house; educate me on what was happening; and all of my options. Working with them was a delight as the staff in the office, and the crew on site worked HARD to fix my issue. I felt like I was their only customer, and they dropped everything to come fix my problem! They had my issue resolved in 48 hours; permits and inspection in all! Highly recommended!

These guys were hired by our landlord to fix a leak in the front yard. The first crew was okay, and while one of the guys came to our door without a mask on at one point, he promptly put it on when I asked. However the next crew that came around, was led by a super loud, obnoxious white guy who smoked, yelled from his truck and wouldn't wear his mask. Toxic masculinity galore. I'm not kidding. Yuck and creeps. They sure worked hard and fixed the leak, but it sucked having them around when I was alone at home with my baby.  Also, after taking out most of the front yard dirt and shrubs to get to the pipes, they put the plants back in all the wrong places (and very poorly), and they used SO many gallons of water to pack the dirt that we now have a totally unworkable clay-like soil.  Seriously, it's like cement and it is collapsing in places where they didn't fill it up properly. Total crap job. Totally obnoxious dude.

My wife and I recently found a big issue with our sewer line and contacted multiple companies about fixing the problem.  Dirt Cheap was the only company that focused on understanding the cause of the problem and coming up with a reliable, economical solution; every other company recommended digging up the street would would have cost too much.  Collin made sure that we got the problem fixed at the price we agreed on and in the timeframe he promised.  He is reliable and sticks to his word.

We got the privilege or working with Angel and his crew, who were determined to get the issue fixed with a cost-effective method, despite running into a few setbacks.  They were able to fully fix the problem and did not increase the price on us.  We are grateful for their amazing work.

We strongly recommend working with Dirt Cheap.

Amazing service. Found them on Yelp. Just like so many reviews before, these guys are the best--especially Angel. He went way out his way to help us with an emergency sewer connection and septic decommissioning.  Honest, trustworthy and courteous all the way through.

Slightly unrelated, but Angel & his crew pulled over and helped me at 1am on the side of the road on the middle of highway 5 when I had a flat tire. Him and his 3 buddies asked if we needed any help and were kind enough to take my tire over to the gas station 4 miles away and bring it all the way back to see if air pressure was the issue. While this wasn't sewage work, it was a true testament to his selflessness and kindness towards others. I could cry writing this post. He truly made my whole year and I can't thank him enough for coming over to help me and my boyfriend. He will remain in my heart for a very long time. Hire this man!!!! He is a legend.

This team is fantastic! We had to replace the sewer pipe in the home we just bought, and they gave us a great price and were really efficient. I will definitely be using this company again!

I'm torn between a 3 and 4 star review.  We had them do a septic decommission​ and hookup to the ​sewer.  Their price was good, not the cheapest but on the cheaper side, but they had recently done our neighbor's​ house so we went with them.  Overall I would say I would go with them again.  Collin was very responsive and easy to work with.  From what I can tell so far, the sewer hookup has been fine and is working and we aren't having any plumbing issues so very good stuff there.  That said, there were a few issues.  One issue, our yard is a rocky muddy, uneven disaster.  I'm not sure if that is common with this work or if people usually clean that up, but right now it is a mess and I don't think I can do much about it until the spring.  They also broke my firepit.  Collin took the cost of replacement off of the bill, but I would have appreciated it if they told me about it before they left instead of ignoring it.  Maybe they didn't notice, but nobody said anything, I noticed it the next day. There was also a little bit of stuff, like not fully cleaning up, they used some bricks that I had to secure their trailer, no problem, but they didn't put them back where they came from.  The removed some solar lights and didn't put them back.  So just some nitpicky details that, if executed on would have made this a 4 star.  

Pros:
Good price
Knowledgable staff
Speedy service (both in scheduling and in completing the work)
responsive to questions in person and over email

Cons:
- Some lack of attention to details from the staff onsite
- yard is a mess, I didn't really expect that, maybe I should have but it is really bad
- they broke my firepit and didn't tell me

These guys are the REAL DEAL! Awesome customer service, super professional and really fair pricing. Collin & Angel Rock! They handled both a broken water line and then a broken sewer line for me in the same month (hurray!). They just get after it and were very respectful of the landscaping as well. Highly recommended.

ABSOLUTELY HIRE THIS COMPANY! Angel is a godsend.  He is completely trustworthy and will do the work at a fair price. I would even argue that he goes above and beyond for you.  For example he used his camera for free to do some investigative work.  Other companies tried to charge us 200 dollars for that.   We had exposed the sewage  problem ourselves and had other companies quote us 3000 dollars.  Angel did the work for us for 550.  We couldn't use the water in our house for a few days and Angel stayed until 10 at night to do the work and make sure we could live in our house comfortably(and flush our toilets!) I could go on and on about his work ethic and trustworthyness.  He is the absolute BEST.

I would highly recommend Dirt Cheap Sewer for their professional, courteous, and efficient service at a very reasonable price.  I own a rental house in Seattle, and the tenants had a backup in the toilet and shower.   Sergio came out right away to diagnose the problem with a camera attached to a cable line that showed massive root intrusions causing the blockage.  He explained everything very carefully and took the time to answer any questions I had.  Due to the extreme deterioration of the 100-year old pipes, and the fact the pipes will clog again due to further root intrusions in the future, I decided to have the pipes replaced once and for all.  Sergio and his crew started the job quickly and completed the project in 3 days.  The blockage was immediately resolved, and the tenants were not inconvenienced during the 3-day pipe replacement phase except for a short  1-hour period when they could not use water.   Also, the concrete pathway that needed to be broken up to gain access to the pipes was restored nicely, with new concrete poured where necessary.  I was very happy with Dirt Cheap's services!

Angel and his team were tremendous. We recently had our sewer pipes and water pipes replaced. I was concerned because the job was more complicated than a sewer/water line replacement typically is. The Dirt Cheap crew did the job skillfully and stuck to their bid even when they ran into some barriers. They were very communicative and stayed long hours in the rain and cold for troubleshooting and to make sure we could use our water/sewer. They were easy to talk to and professional throughout. In addition, they were a very competitive price. Despite such a big messy job, they were respectful to disrupt as little of our landscaping as possible and put everything back as carefully as possible. We got a large number of bids, which made me even more convinced that this team would do a great job. Call Dirt Cheap first!

very nice and a fantastic problem solver. He saved us a lot of money. very happy with his work.

They worked on switching my home from septic to sewer. They are fast, reliable and way cheaper than the 4 other companies that quoted the job. The workers are very knowledgeable and friendly.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this company. I read a lot of reviews on plumbers, and called several, but it wasn't until I called Dirt Cheap that I felt confident in my decision. Katheryn, the  manager, was very informative, friendly, and professional. She had someone come out the next day, free of charge, to give us a bid on the job. He wasn't pushy, explained what would be done, and recommended we get other bids before deciding which company was best for us. We're so glad we chose Dirt Cheap! The guys arrived at the agreed time, were professional, and did an amazing job replacing the water pipe from the street to our house. When I got home from work, and saw the yard, I thought they hadn't even been there. They did such an amazing job putting everything back the way it had been before they started digging ( and they had to do A LOT of digging ) that I will choose this company each and every time I need a plumber :)

These guys are great. We had a side sewer that needed repair. From Collin in the office to Angel.as Project Manager to Pedro and Cesar in the trenches, these guys performed above and beyond expectations. I have absolutely no reservations in recommending them for a side sewer repair.

I am floored by the level of service that I received from Dirt Cheap Plumbing.  I had an issue of overflow from my mainline pipe which caused significant damage to my floors.  I used ANOTHER plumbing service which cost me $500 bucks just to clear the pipe and review my mainline with a camera--and when they gave me a quote to excavate my pipeline just to continue looking for the issue, I wasn't satisfied and so I called Dirt Cheap for a second opinion.  They came the next day and provided the same service (camera check of my mainline) for FREE.  Angel and Chris were friendly, engaging, took their time in explaining their process to me, and even allowed me to record the camera video images with my phone.  The other service wouldn't do that and asked me for $200 just to get the video!  The gentlemen at Dirt Cheap gave me a lot of insight into my mainline and helped put my mind at ease in a stressful situation.  I cannot recommend this company enough.

We used DC to replace our entire sewer line last August for our 1953 home in Seattle (I'm a bit delayed in writing this review!) but were very impressed with the job and the DC team. Not only did they come in quite a bit under the rest of the quotes we got, they were able to get us in THAT WEEK (because of another job they had in the area). They were prompt, easy to work with, kind, and very reasonably priced -- I enjoyed working with Colin on the estimate/project scope and Chris/Angel on the actual job. The only reason I'm rating them a 4 instead of a 5 is they missed one hookup coming out of out laundry room which resulted in a little bit of a mess when we ran our laundry the next week, but they were out to fix it promptly and were very apologetic (missed communication) about it. Regardless of that, I'd hire them again in a heartbeat.

We had a wonderful experience with Dirt Cheap. After passing the truck near my neighborhood, I called up and they stopped by within a day to check out our problem and give us a quote. Work started soon after, was efficient, well done, and stayed on budget. Collin, Angel & the team were all kind, knowledgable & fun to have around for a few days. Definitely recommend!!

I recommend this company!  Their responses are really quick and did job done on time with much reasonable price than other companies.  Angel and his team works really hard.  We had other problem came up, but they solved quickly as possible.

When we had a plumbing backup we were pretty frantic to find a trustworthy company that wouldn't make us go completely broke. We called a few larger companies and they wouldn't even provide a price estimate over the phone, rather they would give a range of time the next day when someone will be by to discuss, which makes it very difficult to get a fair comparison between companies. On a whim, I checked on Homeadvisor as well, and Angel Cervantes from Dirt Cheap Plumbing called me immediately. Not only did he talk through the program with me over the phone, but he gave us a pricing estimate and came by within an hour. He truly worked with us on providing a fair price, and got our large job done quickly and professionally. The entire team at Dirt Cheap has been courteous, helpful and professional, and I will absolutely use them again. Not to mention the fact that we eventually did get multiple quotes for our larger job and they were by far the most affordable, with no sacrifice to quality. Do yourself a favor and call Angel!

I found Dirt Cheap on Angies List (licensed, bonded). I needed camera analysis. They were prompt and kept me apprised of the repair progress. They waived the analysis fee when I agreed to the repair price. Had a crush line, with a crack and a tear. It was a wreck. But its all good now. Thank you Dirt Cheap. I hope I have no future needs for your services, but if I do, I will not hesitate to contact you again.
