Fixed right, priced straight.

We do not charge by the hour. You get a flat rate for the job, quoted and approved before any work starts, so the number cannot climb while someone is under your sink. Hourly billing is where most of the "am I being overcharged" worry in this trade comes from, and flat-rate pricing removes it rather than asking you to trust us on it.

You see the price before we start, not after we finish, and nothing additional happens without you approving it first. If a technician finds something bigger mid-job, work stops and you get options with pricing. You are also free to take that written quote and get a second opinion — we would rather lose a job than have you feel cornered into one.

If water is actively running where it should not be, shut off the supply — the fixture stop under the sink or toilet, or the main if you cannot reach it. Beyond that, do not spend long troubleshooting. Note what you saw, when it started, and which fixtures are affected; that is genuinely useful to the technician and takes thirty seconds.

Usually not, and we would rather tell you that than sell you a call-out. Caustic cleaners can damage older pipes, they rarely clear a real blockage in a main line, and any leftover chemical becomes a hazard for whoever opens the line next. If a single fixture is slow, a plunger or a simple drain snake is a fair first try. If more than one fixture is backing up, that points at the main line and the store product will not touch it.

A licence number you can look up, proof of insurance, a written price before the work rather than after, and a willingness to show you what is actually wrong. Our Idaho and Oregon contractor and plumbing licence numbers are published on this site so you can verify them, and our technicians are background-checked.

Emergencies are guaranteed same-day — a technician at your door, not just a returned phone call. Non-emergency work is same day in most cases, and we will tell you honestly when it is not, because true emergencies do bump lower-priority appointments. A real person answers the phone 24/7, including nights, weekends and holidays.
