Best Residential Plumbing in Seattle WA

Best company ever to work for and company wise ......

Helpful and professional staff. Good selection of quality fixtures to actually touch and try out. I'm updating a faucet and sink I'll use multiple times a day for the next 25 years and I just couldn't find anything I liked at the box stores. I walked in, got helped immediately, and got a selection of excellent quality stuff to choose from in about 10 minutes. They have extremely high end stuff but also really good stuff that is reasonably priced compared to the low end junk I found at box stores and on mass retail websites.

Thank you Steven :)

Called Beacon late Monday afternoon, Dispatcher said their guys would be out in an hour. 10 minutes later received a call from the Dean & Richard telling me they were finishing an emergency job in W. Seattle so they were about 90 minutes out. They came, evaluated problem, gave me an estimate & explained the what-ifs should they be unable to repair and had to replace. Because ours is an older home they had to call several parts houses before they were able to locate the valve they needed and they kept in contact with me to let me know what time they would arrive. They were 15 minutes ahead of arrival time, fixed my shower, explained how to show it some TLC to help extend its life, kept everything really clean and they are my new heroes. Will absolutely recommend you folks to friends & family!

Responded quickly to an emergency call, were swift and effective in resolving the issue, and took the time to clean up after they wrapped up. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

I'm posting this for my mother, who used this company at the beginning of the month to repipe her house. This will include my experience as well as hers with the company.
None of these complaints are for Autie, who is the saving grace for this company.
The first complaint about the service is the office staff. There were three phone calls made to see about bumping the service ahead. Two on one day, another a different day. The third call was handled less than spectacular on our end, as by this point we had repeatedly told the office girl calling there was no way our schedule would permit changing dates. While I understand some individuals would like to get projects like this done ASAP, we had large items that needed to be moved around. I work 5 days a week, I am on call for my job, and I'm barely back to full time, post a work injury in which I crushed my foot. I had called a different time to speak with Autie, and received interrogation/ wanting details about where I wanted the work done, I ended the phone call due to increased agitation as I wasn't looking to make a new job but to ask follow up questions. I did not have Autie's contact information at the time, so I called the office. What ensued was multiple days of being called by Laura for a conversation I did not want to have, as I never wanted to talk to her. I repeatedly ignored the calls because I knew I would react with agitation on the phone. I ended up answering the call when I was waiting on a call from a different vendor for work and bluntly told her she had nothing to offer me and that I did not want to talk to her, which is why I had ended my first call to the office. While I understand there are procedures, I wasn't asking for a quote, I was asking to leave my name and phone number on the initial call I had placed into the office. Had I know it was going to turn into an ordeal with the office staff, I never would of called.

Second, day of job. I would say the overall quality of work is as expected. They worked with us and added a couple of items that were initially missed on the first walk through with Autie. The pipes installed were pex, which there is a smell/ taste to the water due to the newness of materials and the fact it is not broken in, one of the downsides to using pex. However, the job was completed in one day and the crew worked diligently to get the work done. They followed through on promises of what they would and would not clean up (there were materials we needed to clean up but we were forewarned of this, so no issues). They did patch walls but the quality is not up to my expectation, due to the nature of my job, but we hired plumbers, not wall repair guys, so again, to be expected and its not incredibly hard for me to sand and re-repair myself. The issues with the drywall is the fact that the mud was mixed with bottled water from my mother's machine she uses for drinking water. Evidence of dry wall patch was found in the drip tray and on the water dispense spout. This is a problem because this was an additional resource they did not ask to use and the sanitary issue of potentially drinking wall patch. We cleaned it up but are still finding spots throughout the pathway of work. The crew, while doing the pipe pull and cutting, had drop cloths down but lifted them before patching. It would have been ideal if they had left the cloths down, knowing they would be adding patch. Again, we have been cleaning these items up but the annoyance of finding random spots of patch is an issue.

Third item, is a member of the crew thought it would be amusing to mock the lack of bathroom situation. While he may not have meant harm by it or may not have realized or understood his comments came off in poor taste, they did. My mother had kidney surgery and has had lasting problems since April, so no bathrooms put her in medical urgency. The audacity to mock the situation was uncalled for.

The company has its issues with staff but performs the work asked for.

Jim Dandy is one of the best plumbing companies in the Seattle area. They are always reasonably priced and have a high standard of work.

Bobby was quick to provide quotes and clarity on what work needed to be done as well as pricing. His pricing was below the 2 other competitors and had a more specific range to it (see more below on range). He continued to update me on the progress and discoveries (that were previously discussed and quoted) during the execution. Crews were cordial, respectful of our place and garden, and left their inside workspace cleaner then they found it. Project stayed below the previously quoted range (range based on aforementioned potential discoveries). Bobby did not up sell the scope where he could’ve, instead explained clearly why he does not advice customers on a potential back flow preventor I asked about.
I hope to not have to hire them again, but certainly will if the need arises.

These guys were amazing! They were very punctual. The crew showed up and repiped my moms whole house in less than a day! Quality job from Doug the estimater down to all the crew that worked hard and did a quality job . Reasonable bid too! Great crew! Thank you

PJ and the team came to the rescue for me. My home ran into a serious plumbing issue, with a sewer line that needed to be replaced. Our whole household was in emergency mode — we couldn't take a shower, flush, or even wash our hands normally.

PJ and the team went well beyond the call of duty, working late into the night on a holiday weekend to get us operational again. They didn't have to do that — but I am so appreciative that they did!

You'll be pleased with their dedication to the craft, communication, and overall pleasantness to work with.

Excellent service! Came out in a matter of hours and repaired hot water problem. Explained in detail. Thanks!!!!

This company is amazing. Calling a plumber is one of the most stressful things to do as a homeowner. Losing your retirement fund flashes in your head. But not with these guys. They are honest, fair and do quality work. Josh C. is the best! We had to purchase a new toilet last year. We just recently had a clog and had to call for service. Josh was our plumber again and he remembered us from a year ago. He was super friendly and really nice to our dog, which goes over huge with us! He also noticed the main air vent in the hallway was dirty and told us the filter needed to be changed. Now that is what I call full service. Thanks Josh, because of you calling the plumber isnt so scary. The Flippin Family (Denny, Susan, Amy & Tomey)

My experience with Clearwater Leak Detection was great. Simon was very knowledgeable and found our underground pipe leak in no time at all. He took the time to show us the issue and explained how to prevent the problem in the future. He was able to perform the repairs quickly and put our leak fears to rest! They had all the equipment needed on hand to help us out fast. I will definitely call them in the future for any water leak issues.

Zoltan does great work! Reasonable prices, zero-pressure sales. If I need plumbing in the future, I will be calling him again!

Just found out about a leak we had going in our crawl space yesterday. Bought this house 6 months ago and was not prepared for a huge plumbing disaster. After calling around to multiple plumbers in the area, with no one available, Bobby returned my call and said he'd be right over to at least look at what the problem was and turn off my water main for me. As a new homeowner and someone who knows nothing about plumbing, the fact that he just came over to assess and reassure was huge. He told me exactly what we could do to speed the process along, and that he'd be back as soon as he was able to actually fix it for us. Within less than 24 hours he was back here, and completed the entire job in a short time, and at a reasonable price. But more importantly, we now have a plumber we can count on for any future problems that may arise. That peace of mind in an older house is worth every penny! Thanks Bobby and Norm, you guys are the best. Highly recommend them.

Came, diagnosed, fixed all within an hour. Would highly recommend.

Todd has been nothing short of exceptional in the quality and ethics of his work. Even though plumbing companies will have their own cameras to look at your sewer, nothing is better than an independent, objective assessment. We wanted to take a look at our sewer line, and Todd came by the next day. He identified a hole right outside our house, explained what needed to be done, and as well said to call him back when the hole was fixed so he could a) review the repair and b) continue the inspection of the rest of the line. We received a video with pictures of the line a day after. He followed up with us on quotes and suggested work from sewer companies we had received to guide us. Well above and beyond his scope of service. It just does not get better a customer experience than that.

Andy located my water line leak for me. He was super nice, professional, and honest. He even let me listen to through the headphones so I understood exactly what he was hearing and how he was detecting the leak location. He made helpful recommendations for how to proceed with my unusual repair. I would definitely recommend Akers for plumbing issues.

They came quickly, were super friendly and fixed it the next day. Great people. Not cheap but quality is worth it. Use these guys.
