Plumbing systems are not one-size-fits-all, especially in North Idaho and Eastern Washington. Older homes, seasonal freezes, hard water, and aging infrastructure all come with their own challenges. Because we are local, we understand what works, and what doesnt, for homes and businesses in this region. Whether you need a plumber in Post Falls, Coeur dAlene, Spokane, Spokane Valley, or Liberty Lake, Scotts Plumbing is just a phone call away.
"Got fleeced on the third job we hired the owner for, having put trust in him after good experience with first two jobs. However, if you are looking for a plumber who charges about $400 per hour, then Scott's Pluming may be a good choice. The last job we had was a kitchen faucet installation. We simply called Scott’s Plumbing and just asked them to get it done. We did not hide the fact that we didn't get other quotes. We ended up being billed for $800 for a straightforward install job. (Not yet paid. I stopped the check while I explore my legal options.) This included a line item of $396.12 for 2 angle stops, which as a standard practice is normally be included as part of faucet installation. (Apparently, this item was correctly included in the previous two job. As it happens, the previous two jobs were also installation of faucets, in bathrooms. Job-1: Installation of 1 faucet, total cost with tax = $269.52, Job-2: Installation of 3 faucets, total cost with tax = $626.89. Clearly, the angle stops labor was correctly included as part of the faucet installation on those two jobs, and not charged as a separate line item.) The new job probably took about 2 hours (and was similar in terms of time/effort as the previous two jobs), but was charged about 3 times of what would be a reasonable price. Bottom-line, we will obviously not hire Scott's in the future. We also learned a our lesson, and will not put our trust blindly in another business, and will likely verify that the cost of a job is reasonable each quote in the future. (Note: looking at a couple of other negative reviews on other websites, the response from the business is likely going to be along the lines of “we quoted upfront…” etc., which ignores the fact that they pretty much dipped into our wallet when we weren't looking."
