Get matched with top water main install, replace or repairers in Seattle, WA

"We heard water gushing under our house one night and thought a pipe had burst. We shut down the water from the street and started calling Angie's List plumbers the next morning. Raman from Drain Pro said he could be here between 8-10 am, and he was. Discovered that the pipe from the street had disconnected to the pipe leading into the house. He had the parts and tools to repair the connection on the spot. In addition, he took the time to replace cartridges in our faucets that had failed related to the leak. He was great to work with and we really appreciated him getting us back on water so quickly. In addition, he recommended for the amount of water in the crawlspace that we rent a dehumidifier rather than contract with a much more expensive company. The guy at the equipment rental shop verified that doing so was saving us many hundreds of dollars. We know we need to replace our hot water tank soon and will be calling Drain Pro to install it."

"The plumber arrived with all parts required to replace the hot water heater and accessories. He completed the job, including draining the old tank, installing a new shutoff valve and new water lines. He lit the heater and checked to be sure the system started with no leaks. He came on a Saturday, with no extra charge. Excellent job!"

"I have hired this company on many different occasions by this point. Hot water tank replacement both electric and gas, re-plumbing a house, finish trim such as vanity, bathrooms, kitchen sink, etc. Installing clean out for mainline side sewer, scoping and clearing obstructions for mainline side sewer, digging down and replacing clogged side sewers. What is impressive and important to me is the sense of urgency, attention to detail and quality of work. In my 20 years of looking after houses, Nathan is by far the best plumber I?ve ever worked. And on top of all of that, I find the pricing to be very competitive.. "

"I called and Schmitty's told me they could have someone there at 8 AM the next day. They called the next morning and confirmed that the repair team was on its way and two members of Schmitty's staff arrived shortly thereafter, showing up a few minutes earlier than the scheduled time. They were courteous and efficient, and soon had the problem valve apart. It was an older design (40 year old house) and not the brand of valve I'd suggested when I'd called them so they had to go out to obtain the necessary replacement part but they were back soon and the installation went very quickly. The valve works fine now and I'm happy."

"Seatown did a great job! Their estimate to replace our water line was competitive, and more complete than other estimates. Had to schedule out two weeks for the estimate, but once I got the estimate they were available to complete the entire job within the same week. Overall, I will definitely reach out to Seatown again when I need plumbing work done."

"They did a great job to cut and cap my water copper pipes and drain pipe. Will use them again for future plumbing work."

"I struggled a bit in determining how to rate the service I just received from Harts Services. I would happily give Harts a 5 star rating if it was only about the serviceâ ¦but itâ s not just about the service. Thereâ s another factor I have considered after the fact and having done so I have since changed my mind. It wasn't a lot of work but it was definitely work that needed to be done. Specifically, I needed to have two water supply valves under the kitchen sink replaced and I needed the toilet gasket seal at the base of the downstairs toilet replaced. Thatâ s it! I had already removed the kitchen faucet and replaced it with a new one so no work was required there but the valves under the sink were old and not compatible with modern faucet designs so they needed to be replaced before I could use the faucet. Based on the reviews I read through Home Advisor, I decided to go with Harts Services. I have absolutely no problem with their customer service or the person who came out. Both the customer service person and the technician who came out were great; very personable and friendly. I also have no problem with the quality of the work performed. It was excellent! The technician was very competent and efficient and took care to keep the work areas clean. Hereâ s what I have a problem with: the cost! Thatâ s it. The technician was in the house for about an hour. He got the two valves removed and replaced in about 20 minutes and the toilet gasket seal removed and replaced also in about 20 minutes. The total visit lasted about an hour give or take a few minutes. For this service, I was charged nearly $1,100...and that was including a veteran's discount! Iâ m thinking the parts were $50-$75 at most. Rather than charging by the hour, this was â parted outâ and each valve replacement was charged as a separate job (at over $360 per job) as was the toilet gasket! So I have to ask; a thousand dollars an hour for a plumber??? Now Iâ ve been on this earth over 60 years. Iâ m not a plumber but I do know how to turn a wrench and am reasonably handy around the house. Since when did plumbers start making upwards of $1000/hour? I havenâ t needed a plumber in a while but I have a difficult time believing this is the current going rate. I needed the work to be done and to be fair, no one twisted my arm. He did present me with the price before hand and I agreed to pay that so I have no one to blame but myself although I had no idea it would take less than an hour to complete the work. It wasnâ t until after he left and I started to think about it that I began to get upset. This was not difficult work. For the work that was done, a fair price in my mind should have been in the $300 to $500 range for an hourâ s work. That is also in line with what I learned is the average hourly rate charged by most plumbers. So, thatâ s why Iâ m not recommending Harts Services and only giving them a 4 Star rating. It would be even less because of the price but , as I said, I have no one to blame but myself. I was under no obligation to accept that price but, at this point after the fact, I canâ t help feel like this was far more expensive than it should rightfully have been. The next time I need minor plumbing work doneâ ¦Iâ ll be more thoughtful. I'll do the necessary research and ask the question: do you charge by the hour or by the part/job? Or if possible, I'll just do it myself if I canâ ¦before calling on the services of a $1000/hour plumber! Charging by the part or by the individual job, especially when the individual jobs are minor, as in my case, may enrich the company but it's not fair to and very bad for the customer. Harts Services needs to adopt a per hour pricing strategy instead of a per part/job strategy. Until they do that, I will not recommend them or use them again. Live and learn."

"needed to replace not only the water main but also a total replumbing of the entire home. Every employee was not only very professional but went out of their way to answer any and all questions I had regarding the work they were performing. It was a pleasure to witness such strong work ethics and pride of workmanship!"

"Tyler and Dave were great. They came in response to a plumbing emergency and both worked efficiently to fix the multiple problems with our house. From getting our system flowing again to diagnosing the bigger issues they have so far completely the work in a timely manner. Cost for work completed was fair, and we will continue to use their services as needed in the future. Recommended for repairing water pipeline to the main line."

"Everyone was very helpful from the front desk to the guys who showed up the next morning. I needed a valve changed so I could have my dishwasher installed and they came out and got it fixed in no time. Have and would recommend to friends"
