Without question one of the best home improvement projects to date! My wife and I have been in our home over 20 years and aside from replacing the roof, having the plumbing repiped was one of the biggest investments we've made and we're so thankful that we selected Repipe Specialists to do it.
Before calling them, we had 5 professional plumbers come out to give us estimates for the same repipe project. Replacing the old, rusty, galvanized pipe with new PEX plastic pipes, including the main water line to the house. The estimates we received were all over the place in price and what was included in the service. It was very confusing to compare one contractor to another and after spending a weekend trying to make sense of the estimates, we decided to call Repipe Specialists for one last estimate before making our selection.
Scheduling the appointment was super easy and the follow-up communication was excellent. Confirmation of the scheduled appointment time, and a reminder before the appointment. The district manager arrived for the appointment and was very through in walking around the house and inspecting our current plumbing, as well as walking the perimeter to examine exterior hose bibs. Very thorough and patient as we explained our concerns and he answered every question without hesitation. In fact, his presentation was amazing. Photographs and examples of before/after repipes and he even pointed out a few things that the other plumbers missed, or never mentioned. The presentation was so thorough and detailed that my wife said, Let's do it! before he was finished. Up until that point, she was skeptical of the other contractors we'd talked to, so that was a great start for us.
The process was exactly as described. The plumber and his crew showed up on time and took the time to walk through the entire project and set clear expectations for how the project was going to unfold over the next couple of days. I shared some concerns about a few issues, and he promised to check those out as they went through the process.
The work was detailed, meticulous, and thorough. These guys are craftsmen in the old-school sense of the word. They take pride in the work they do and it's done right the first time as you'd expect from a seasoned professional with years of experience. This is all they do and it's absolutely wonderful to work with a company that specializes in repiping residential houses.
The entire process was fascinating to watch and they were very conscious of getting most of the work done on the first day so that we weren't without water overnight, which included running a brand new main water line with their trench-less trencher machine. The plumbing was finished on the second day, and that was only because they needed to finish taking care of the exterior hose bibs, and put in a new refrigerator line so that we could finally enjoy using our ice maker! I think this was one of the highlights for us.
The drywall repair team showed up a few days later (after the city inspection) and patched up all the wall openings in one day. By the way, the inspector even commented on the quality of the work and the way they included so many features that most wouldn't think to do, such as multiple shutoffs for the water heater, the exterior water bibs, and the main water line. All accessible within the house and a quick turn of the new connector easily turns the water on/off.
Best of all was the plumber and his crew. I made sure to get a few cards to not only refer their services to my friends and neighbors, but to put on my short list of preferred contractors who have earned my business. We have a few more projects coming up that require a plumber with the workmanship of old-world craftsmen. I can't say enough good things about our experience. It wasn't the cheapest, nor was it the most expensive, but it was without question the best value!
Was it worth it? Absolutely! No more chunks of rust fouling up the aerators in our faucets. Noticeably better water pressure, and I swear the water tastes better!

Simon of Clearwater Leak Detection, Inc. arrived as scheduled. A little early if I recall but I was happy that he was. It Shows professionalism and integrity in my estimation.
Using his test equipment he set out to locate the underground pipes and find the leak. He was meticulous and seemed to be very precise in his testing and evaluation. In under two hours he had laid out and marked the location of the underground pipe. He located the source of the leak and marked the asphalt/grass accordingly. (See Photo)
He used had sensitive sound sensing equipment to locate the pipe run and the leak. He did this by turning off the water supply at the water meter. He pressurized the water line with compressed air from his truck. His air line was connected to one of the hose bibs at the residence. Using the sound generated by the air pressure escaping from the line underground, he systematically located the pipe run and isolated the leak. His methods, equipment and the use of that equipment was very impressive. The leak was 26 Inches underground and approximately 24 inches from the Blue X (See Photo). The entire water pipe run is about 60 feet end to end and he located the leak within two feet.
In November of 2018 I had experience with another leak detector. Due to their lack of professionalism, they were NOT on my call back list.
If I ever need leak detection service again, I sincerely hope that Clearwater Leak Detection will be available. They are highly recommended.
As to cost of the service, I believe all the leak detection services charge within a few dollars of one another, about $450. But I have to tell you, after I spent two days digging up my yard to locate a leak in my rocky Spanaway property, I am kicking myself for not calling them sooner.

Tyler and Mike were absolutely great. Worked well to provide what we needed and help with making decisions over some of the longer term needs. We are extremely happy with the results for our basement bathroom

Determined to do this on my own, I rented a 25 ft snake and used Drano etc. After 2 weeks it was time to call a plumber. Typical guy I guess. But I was concerned about who to call. I had heard bad stories and wanted to chose the right company. After posting requests for referrals on West Bellevue and Medina FB site, and shockingly receiving NO referrals I texted builder friends of mine. They too wanted to find a good plumber feeling others were not honest. Finally a prominent Realtor in the area whom I trust sent me a referral, Rudy's Plumbing. Curtis and Ryan did a GREAT job. They took the time to do it right and didn't cost anything extra. These old pipes were draining slow even after being cleared. I wondered why my dishwasher didn't clean well. The pipes didn't drain quick was why. Well that extra work did it. Water runs GREAT and dishes are better as well. Finally an honest plumber, Now to find a honest Lawyer :)
