Best Underground Leak in Seattle WA

Great team and reliable service

I have used Clearwater twice at 2 different houses and I appreciate their knowledge and explanations of what they find so even I can understand. I'll use the word quirky to describe my current water system, and Simon handled it all with calm knowledge and professionalism. I'm starting to understand the difficulties (I'm being polite) in this type of work, and I found Clearwater's pricing quite reasonable, all things considered.

Without a second thought I would recommend and call Akers Outdoor Plumbing again. I came home from work and discovered a water mainline leak in my front yard/porch area. I have some good experience with broken things around the house but water endless rushing from my home into my front yard - not one of them.

I received a few bits of advice on 1) needing to locate where the water main line leak is 2) marking that location and 3) then servicing the lines where the leaks or breaks are. This is where I found the Akers can do all of this rather than hiring two companies - one to detect where the leak is at and then another to service and repair the pipe.

I was lucky and they were able to accommodate coming out the same day I called to take a look and give me an assessment of how bad the water leak was, a general estimate and assessment and help in whether to call the Seattle Public Utilities to come out and shut off the water. In doing so, Andy and Traci coordinated with me all day, great communication and made me feel confident with choosing someone I didn't know yet to help me.

Here is a recap of why I preferred and appreciated their service. Honest assessment from Day 1. Helped me turn off my water by myself at street level and showed the tools to use so I could use water when I needed until the permanent fix could be worked out. 2. Fair estimate and pricing - never once did I receive pricing that felt gouging or high 3. Great communication - Being flexible is key in this line of business from the customer end. Sometimes their jobs take longer than expected so my job had to be pushed by a day or so. Always talked to me about delays or changes right away and gave me a good understanding of when it was going to be rescheduled. 4. Going above and beyond to take care of me with helping with certifications, inspections from the city, rebates for excess water usages etc. I didn't ask for this help ( and didn't even know I should). They saved me hours of calls on the phone with inspectors and the ulilties company and thousands of dollars with fast-forwarding the rebate process. 5. The repair job was done right. Quality materials. Timing. No short-cuts. They took care of my home like it was their's or one of their family members. Trust isn't easily earned, especially with a trade that I may not even know how to assess quality or inaccuracies right...Andy and his crew (and amazing talented wife) are amazing and I'm glad I worked with them.
(I also posted this on Yelp)

I had an issue with the amount I was billed for a service. I sent an email to Tim O’Neill explaining the situation and he took care of it promptly and to my satisfaction

We had a great interaction with Sewer Friendly. My only feedback (which I gave already and they were very receptive to) was around setting expectations for the day of - what we need to do to prep, when we cant use water/toilet. Otherwise, they were able to crank out the project in a day and I'm happy to have our old pipes lined to hopefully avoid any future issues.

Joe with Simple Plumber has done two jobs for me. He fixed a leaky toilet with complicated plumbing by rebuilding the interior toilet. Most recently he fixed a broken sink and dishwasher. His work is high quality and he is a very nice guy! I would recommend him to anyone with plumbing issues.

We had several plumbers come out to fix a leaky Kohler shower/tub valve, and all of them told us we'd have to cut a hole through our shower enclosure to replace the whole thing.

We called Joe from TSCO from a recommendation from a friend, and he was great. He let us e-mail photos of the valve to him and he arrived with the necessary parts already in hand, and there was no need to cut a hole in the shower. He also squeezed us in two days early, too! The end result? Our valve is no longer leaking. Plus, he fixed a rust stain in the tub and replaced a toilet flapper while he was here.

Joe is very thorough, knowledgeable and does a quality job. He's more expensive than some other plumbers we called, but clearly you get what you pay for. TSCO is definitely our plumber of choice!

The most professional contractor that I have dealt with to date. From start to finish courteous, clean and quality work.
Fair prices for the expertise that this outfit comes with.

Professional and explained everything in detail

I had a leak, and requested the leak detection services; Was given a window of 1 to 5 pm. Got a call at 545 PM, and was told they do not offer the service.

Thanks for wasting my time!

Rick came up with a novel solution to my friend's ponding problem. He suggested a concrete cutter could do it for under $400.00 and he would waive his overhead. Regardless, he called the cutter to make sure of the cut. Ingenious solution to an otherwise expensive problem. I'm writing to thank him as the alternative involved me doing a lot of digging!

Very happy with the sewer line repair that Cesar and his guys did for me. They were responsive, positive, and hard-working. Weather unfortunately added some delays, but the work got done. They offered me a very competitive price compared to other quotes I had received in the area. 100% would recommend to others.

Bryce showed up on time and was thorough in his approach and helped solve the issue

WOW! During an epic hardship, these guys are really great. My gut had good feelings when I met with Jose the first time. Their bid was competitive, their timeliness and communication impeccable, and their restoration really astounding.

After having one company come out and unsuccessfully clear a drain, then being stood up by roto rooter and calling literally 10 other service providers who seemed not to have any confidence if they’d be able to help with our issue, Jafco came out and solved the it.

We have been searching for years for reliable high quality plumbing services. Bingo! GHP&H does it all. David and Zimri repaired a 60yo sewer line that was on its last leg - or maybe past that point. I got several estimates for the job and not only was their estimate by far the most reasonable, they clearly knew what they needed to do and explained it in terms that I could understand - no games. The company handled all of the permitting and inspection requirements and David and Zimri worked for 3 days in torrential rain to get the job done right and on time. Amazing job - yard was put back together and now we have a new sewer line after several failed attempts with other companies. I was just amazed at how hard Zimri and David worked while explaining everything they were doing along the way. So, having had such a great experience with that project, I hired them to install a tankless water heater in my other house - no simple task with how our existing water heater was situated and connected to a whole house recirculation pump. They did it, on time, for a super reasonable price and did a great job. They don't skimp on quality either when it comes to the products they use - they installed a top of the line unit. So...,:) I hired them AGAIN, to install a drain and water connection for a laundry room I am remodeling - same story. They did a high quality job and worked so dang hard to get it right and on time. Bonus, Zimri and David stand out as being the nicest guys of all of the contractors I'm working with right now - very easy to work and communicate with. I'm so happy with this company, I plan to hire them for a whole house remodel I'm starting in a couple of months.
