"There was minor scheduling mishap where the scheduler put the wrong date on their calendar, but when I called to ask where the plumber was, they immediately worked to get a plumber to my house within 20 minutes. Ammon arrived and was very friendly and competent. I pointed him to the area where I had seen water and he jumped in to locate the source. After a bit of inspection he identified a leaky valve on my sink. He extended the copper water pipes and replaced the leaky valve after explaining to both my wife and I what the issue was and what he was doing. After he resolved the problem, he gave us his direct number and told us to call him if we saw any more water. After a competitor had been out twice to try and repair the issue, it was refreshing to see Ammon so invested in finding and fixing my issue as well as making sure I was happy with his work. I would definitely hire Drain Pro again and I would certainly request Ammon."

"Hello. Mike came with his apprentice to replace my 53 year old water heater today. Mike was amazing and his apprentice Shawn was so helpful. I was truly blessed by Mike's presence with his commitment to excellence and sincere interest in my well being. He discovered many unexpected problems and resolved everything wanting to make sure everything was done perfectly. He took time to educate me throughout the whole job. He took time and care with every opportunity to educate and collaborate with his apprentice. His polite and patient demeanor was a gift. I know that all necessary work has been done to a high standard. I am a 72 year old woman without much family or help. The work done by Mike at Bob Larson plumbing has given me peace. The cost of my plumbing was the best of three bids and the best money I've ever spent! I am so grateful... I highly recommend Bob Larson Plumbing!"

"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.. "

"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."

"The water district called about a leak. They said it was leaking 35 gallons an hour and I was really impressed with Mr. Rooter. It was a major thing for us. It was pricey but how do we know. You've got a leak and you need someone to come. The reason we used them is because they had a good rating on Angie's List and they gave a senior discount."

"Great customer service. Shared knowledge of what was being done and why. They even alerted me to a serious incorrect installation mistake that could have been a serious problem and costly repair very soon down the road and I had them fix it right away. I would hire Platinum plumbing in a flash should I need any other services or repairs."

FAQs for water main install, replace or repair projects in Tacoma, WA

If you notice puddles or standing water in your yard, a sudden drop in water pressure, cracks forming in your foundation, frequent clogs in your plumbing fixtures, or water that looks or smells unusual, you might have a leak in your main water line. These signs mean it's time to call a professional to evaluate the issue and prevent further damage.

A professional water main inspection is a comprehensive evaluation performed by a licensed plumber who checks every section of your plumbing system. The inspection costs $165 and uses advanced diagnostic techniques to identify hidden leaks or wear. This service clarifies the exact condition of your water main, enabling precise repairs that prevent future damage and ensure the overall health of your plumbing system.

Protect your water main by scheduling a cleaning and inspection every two to five years. The average cost of a sewer line cleaning is $400. It’s also important to never dig in your yard without first calling the dig line (811) to ensure you don't accidentally hit the water or sewer lines. Watch for soil erosion, low water pressure, or wet spots in your yard, and take immediate action if you suspect a leak. Remember, the longer you leave it, the worse the problem gets and the more costly it is to fix.

When properly maintained, your water main is engineered to remain functional for 50 years or longer. A durable water service in excellent condition should consistently perform without major issues for half a century. In contrast, metal pipes exposed to acidic soil corrode faster, whereas modern plastic pipes resist corrosion and function for decades beyond metal alternatives. Regular maintenance and inspections are essential for confirming your system’s longevity.

No, homeowners insurance does not cover the cost to repair a water main. Insurers fund only sudden, unforeseen events like a burst pipe and exclude gradual issues or normal wear and tear. Damage resulting from leaks, such as mold remediation or property claims, is not covered. It is essential to contact your insurance provider immediately to confirm your policy’s details and any potential adjustments needed.
