Chuck was very prompt to reply and showed up when he said he would. I'm a property manager and he went out to one of our rental properties that had a toilet issue. He was honest and straight forward stating that the problem we have isn't what he does. He referred me to another plumber. I really appreciate the time he took to work with me and my tenant. Thank you Chuck. I will be calling you for my next job :)

In the midst of a big Seattle weather system, Chuck not only answered the phone but was able to come to our house within just a couple hours. He and Brian identified the immediate issue, cleared the blockage in our driveway drain, and then scheduled a return a few days later to deal with the drain spouts. They gave us suggestions on how to maintain the areas in the future. They were super fast, friendly, and efficient. They gave a reasonable quote and that is what we paid. Highly recommend their services!

We highly recommend Green lake sewer. We left a message on Yelp and got response very quickly. On the day of fixing the issue, they did job efficiently and helped us figure out the problem promptly. They are also very kind and gave us lots of suggestions on prevent the issue happen again.

Brian and Chuck have been out three times, and they are a pleasure to work with. They very clearly know drain systems extremely well, especially with all the older sewer pipes in Seattle. They are extremely professional, get the job done efficiently, and are completely transparent in all of their work. They are both always willing to talk through concerns, or problem shoot things with you, which I really appreciate. I would highly recommend them for all things sewer and drain.

Another awesome experience with Chuck. This time we had a clog in our sewer line. Chuck came out the following day and the problem was fixed in less than an hour.

I really appreciate the way he explains the issues, gives counsel on how to avoid problems in the future, and in confident enough about his quality enough to warrant his work. This is our go-to business.

Chuck and Brian did a great job unclogging my driveway drain. They discovered the issue immediately and were dedicated to correcting it along with instructions to prevent the roots from coming back and clogging the drain again. They put in maximum effort, were kind and direct. I would definitely recommend. Support your small businesses. They deserve it.

We recently moved into a 97 year old home and needed someone to clean our drains and also to let us know if we had anything major to worry about. Chuck came out exactly when he said he would, was professional, and incredibly helpful. Chuck went out of his way to provide us advice on how to take care our older pipes and ways to maintain them for the longest life. Plus, he was kind and friendly to our dogs! I can't recommend him and his company highly enough

I had a small puddle forming in my basement. Chuck was able to come out the next day (though I scheduled him for the day after) to clean out my sewer line. He arrived early & did the job quickly and efficiently. He also gave me some great information on how to keep all my drain lines clear. Would definitely call him again.

We own two properties and Chuck has been our go-to for many years to clean out these old, tired Ballard sewer drains - roots, grease and things that probably shouldn't have flushed down in the first place. He's fast, efficient, friendly and gets the job done, and with a quick turnaround. I've recommended him to many neighbors and friends. Thanks, Chuck!

Chuck was awesome! He came to get a drain cleared got it done quickly, kept our place clean & had some great advice on maintenance. His decades of experience & excellent customer service was just what I was hoping for after some bad experiences with other rooter companies in the past.

I've owned and lived in several craftsmen homes, circa 1900, in the Greenlake area - and I've had to call in side sewer experts many a time. Finally, I've found a local company I can trust. Chuck and Brian came out after telling me exactly what I could expect for charges. They showed up exactly when they said they would. They did exactly what they said they would do. They got me up and running again for far less than I would have paid someone else. And, most importantly - to me - they took the time to tell me how to keep my system healthy and avoid serious expense in the future.

Plumbing emergencies are one of those nightmares you hope you never have to face. I've heard such HORROR stories. The Pipe Doctor recommended GreenLake Sewer so I checked out their reviews here. As you can see, 5 stars all the way. They were responsive, prompt and never tried to upsell us on anything. In fact, they offered a menu of options. I feel so fortunate to have found these plumbing heros!

These guys are great. They are timely, knowledgeable, not too spendy. It sucks having to worry about your sewer but Chuck and company make the process smooth and easy. These guys genuinely seem to care about your sewer. They recommend helpful tips and products to help keep it in tip-top shape. Definitely go to them first if you need help.

The 5 stars are for the evaluation, advice and referral Chuck took the time to give me, even though my job entailed work that his company does not do.
Thank You, Chuck for your thorough and thoughtful explanation.

My washer drain backed up with water all over the basement from a large load. Called a plumber who didn't find a blockage in the stand up pipe so went to a sewer company they recommended. That sewer company said I needed to do an external drain pipe and jet my sewer, then add a liner for total of 14K. A few other bids did not recommend this and it was totally confusing. All the other plumbing was working fine.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND GREENLAKE SEWER !!! After 3 consultations they were the most direct and honest. All I needed was a snake into the sewer from the already existing inside drain

I called 7 different companies and found Green Lake Sewer & Drain not only the most affordable, but also the most responsive. I called in the morning and was offered a site visit in the afternoon. We had some blockage in our gutter drain and are so glad that we spoke with Green Lake Sewer & Drain. It was the only company that was honest enough to tell me that hydro-jetting (the more expensive process) was not necessary and could destroy our concrete pipe. I was informed about reasonable options to solve my problem (and no upselling here, since they don't install rain barrels or flexible

Chuck is a stellar guy. He was responsive and honest. When I told him about our exterior drain issue, he offered to come by and take a look free of charge. He identified some potential issues and solutions, and gave us a range of pricing. It was much lower than other companies we talked with. Chuck sent Brian and Raymond out the following week. They were able to quickly diagnose the issue, which wasn't as big as we thought it would be. They showed us the issue on the camera, quickly took care of it, and then explained how to prevent it in the future. They then told us it would be a

Thanks to Chuck and Darius who just left. Super impressed with them. Friday night water started coming up from a drain in the basement, so I assumed that a drain was clogged. Called GreenLake Sewer and Drain on Saturday morning and they arrived less than 1 hour later! They took a look, and quickly diagnosed that the issue was not with the sewer but with the sump pump. They then gave me the name of the right person to call, and then said something that I never thought I would hear - "no charge, we were in the neighborhood anyway". Who does that?? When we do have a sewer issue, I know who

Greenlake sewer & drain came to my rescue today (during Covid-19 outbreak, no less) and unclogged my sewer pipe line. Chuck arrived shortly before the 10am appointment & we discussed the house sewer & pipe lines. He promptly got to work with an electric drum-machine pipe auger. After 100+ feet of cable down the drain, he guided through the clogged sections expertly. When he retracted the cable, up came a mass of BABY WIPES (and some old-style mop string) used by someone else living on my street! We tested the sewer line with all the house taps running and it was fully working again
