Flat-rate pricing

The price on the page is the price on the invoice.

Labor and standard parts included. If we find something that changes the job, you see the new number and decide — before we keep going.

Emergency help

Water coming through the ceiling? Do these three things.

  1. Shut off the main. Usually in the basement or crawlspace where the line enters, or in a box by the sidewalk. Turn it clockwise.
  2. Kill power to wet areas. If water is near outlets or the panel, flip those breakers — or wait outside.
  3. Call us, then your insurer. We document the damage with photos you can send straight to your claim.

Employees, not subcontractors

All 14 plumbers are licensed journeymen on salary. Nobody earns a commission for selling you a water heater.

Clean-site promise

Boot covers, floor runners and a wet-vac on every van. If we cut drywall, we leave it ready to patch.

Old-house people

Craftsman bungalows, cast iron stacks, knob-and-tube neighbors. We’ve seen your basement before.

★★★★★
“Our basement was filling up on Christmas Eve. Arturo walked us through shutting off the main on the phone, was here in 35 minutes, and had a new section of pipe in before the ham came out.”
Megan & Luis Ortega Sellwood · Burst pipe, Dec 2025

“They talked me out of a tankless I didn’t need. Saved $2,400 and the new tank was in by lunch.”
Gordon Hale Milwaukie · Water heater

Common questions

Same flat rates until 8pm, every day including weekends. Between 8pm and 7am there’s a single $120 after-hours fee, quoted on the phone before we roll.

Yes. We photograph and document every water-damage call, write the line items the way adjusters want them, and can bill most major carriers directly.

For most households of 2–4 people, a high-efficiency tank or a heat pump water heater (with the Energy Trust of Oregon rebate) pays back faster than tankless. We’ll run the numbers for your house, honestly.

Always, for water heaters, repipes and sewer work. Permit fees are already in our flat rates, and we schedule the City of Portland inspection for you.
