They were efficient, with good follow-up, and always on time. I especially appreciated the lead Eric. He and his supervisors reassured me that their main purpose was to keep me happy with the outcome, and they succeeded. When I was selling my house, I began to see home repairs the way I see getting my car fixed: I don't know anything about the processes or the costs and I trust NO ONE.

We own a business in downtown Seattle and a recent sewer blockage threatened to close the business down. An unnamed rooter company spent two days attempting to clear the blockage and informed us that they thought we had a broken line. We called in N.W. Sewer and drain and they were able to clear the line with their hydrojet equipment in about 30 minutes. They were highly professional, thorough, and knowledgable, and I would strongly recommend them for any sewer or drainage issue.

Spencer and his team at N.W. Sewer & Drain saved the day and cleared my clogged sewer line from my house to my septic tank. I called N.W Sewer & Drain after hours in the evening and they were out early the next morning to inspect and clear my clogged sewer main. Prompt and professional service was what I received from N.W. Sewer & Drain and I won't not hesitate to use again. Would recommend to anyone.

Spencer and his crew did a great job installing a liner in the sewer line from my building to the city sewer line in the street, solving a problem of plant roots causing blockages. He scoped the line with a camera and showed me the problem. I'd highly recommend his business.

Spencer and his crew did an incredible job on my Mom's sewer repair and lining job recently. We discovered that my Mom had a break in her 100 yr old sewer line, when the next door neighbor had work done on the shared sewer line between the two houses (sadly for them a horrible experience, moral of the story: NEVER use Beacon plumbing for anything)
My Mom is 90 yr old and does well living independently, but managing complicated projects like this is hard. Spencer was so responsive and kind, and helped me and the neighbors navigate through the Beacon nightmare, by scoping and documenting the issues

In decades of hiring contractors to work on old Seattle houses, this company is hands down the best company I've ever worked with. Spencer, Phil, Robert, Mykaela, Jill, and the rest of the NW Sewer and Drain are fantastic. The bid contains all the work needed, the price is fair, the crew shows up on time, does the work, cleans up. The work is top notch. They are careful, answer all questions, and offer options if there are any. If only they did electrical, plumbing, carpentry, etc...

AMAZING, from start to finish, the entire crew from Makaela in the office, Spencer that did my initial sewer inspection then Phil and Robert that did the jetting and work.

Five stars is set aside for perfect. And I had zero issues and was treated with nothing but respect and courtesy.

The job was done within 24 hours of my first call and that is because I took my time with an approval. They did go above and beyond.

We had an emergency due to sewer coming up into our home from a huge blockage. Spencer responded immediately and spent extra time and effort to resolve the situation. The City was also involved and he spent extra time communicating with them which was invaluable.
He is very knowledgeable, professional, conscientious, and thorough. Mykaela in the office was also very pleasant and helpful as I was very stressed out. I am so thankful I found them.

We asked NW Sewer and drain to provide an estimate for an obstruction at the end of our sewer line. Their intervention was instrumental in gathering the evidence that the issue was with the city and not with us. The facts gathered were sufficient to reluctantly initiate the investigation on the city side which cleared the matter.

That information was well worth the cost of NW S & D investigation. We recommend this company.

Aaron came out promptly to fix a leak under my house. He spent 1 hour shopping for Pex and 1 hour fixing the leak. He charged me $150 for parts, $186 for a service call and $300 for the inconvenience of going under my house for a total of $700, which he then discounted to $600. The cost of parts was about $20 to replace 3' of pipe. Aaron did not put the insulation back on the pipes when he was done, he just left it hanging.
I was surprised he charged a fee to go under the house. I called Spencer to politely ask about the bill. His response was aggressive, unpleasant and irritated. According to

Spencer came out to do a more detailed scoping and assessment of our sewer line in advance of some potential re-lining. He was on-time, courteous, and professional. He did a great job of walking me through what he found and laying out our options. We're still awaiting the re-lining estimate but they have been great to work with so far and I think it's very likely we'll continue with them on our sewer project.

I HIGHLY recommend NW Sewer & Drain. Spencer and his team saved my family over $20,000! We had a different plumbing company come out to clear our sewer line, that company declared our line was broken and that we needed to replace the entire line (upwards of $22,000). Thankfully our Realtor recommended NW Sewer and Drain for a 2nd opinion. Spencer and his team came out and jetted our line clear. It was not broken. I appreciate Spencer's communication, honesty and hard work. Without hesitation, I recommend NW Sewer and Drain.

NW Sewer was recommended to me by my plumber. Spencer and his team were everything I would want in a sewer crisis situation. Punctual,
clear in their communications of what they saw and what they didn't see or know, and diligent in working to assess the sewer break location. Sewer issues are not fun and can be very costly. NW Sewer will be my "go to" in the future for my personal residence and rentals.
Thank you, Leslie H

I had a major sewer failure in a duplex rental. I was very happy with response time to do an initial evaluation and get a a temporary fix in place until the sewer line could be replaced.

We are incredibly pleased with the work performed by Spencer and his crew. We originally received a quote in 2017 and when finally ready to proceed with the work Spencer held the pricing. NW Sewer & Drain replaced our water line and sewer line. Spencer also suggested that we at a minimum replace the galvanized pipe from the front of the house where the new water line meets the house plumbing to our kitchen and laundry. We really appreciated the recommendation. I was really impressed with Spencer from day one and did not reach out to any of the previous companies even though one was cheaper

Due to an agreement that resulted from mediation, I have had to delete my prior reviews of NW Sewer and Drain in exchange for $1000. The work previously reviewed, and performed by NW Sewer and Drain, cost $1500. The full repair to the work by NW Sewer and Drain, by a different company, cost $2500. In order to fulfill the requirement of the mediation, please consider this a positive review

I had a great experience with Spencer when he came out to inspect our Sewer line. I found him to be professional and trustworthy. He gave me good suggestions on how to maintain my line to prevent further backups and suggested other ways besides a full sewer line replacement to keep us going. Every one in the office I spoke to was also super helpful and friendly. I really appreciated their honest approach to business and would highly recommend them for sewer related issues!

Ryan came out to assess our drainage situation the other day (we'd been having water in our basement) and was extremely helpful and informative, providing good suggestions and advice. Although we didn't end up hiring NW Sewer & Drain (or anyone else) yet, Ryan called back a day or two later just to check and see how things were going, saying that he was thinking of us since it had been raining so hard. Now that's customer service!

Yesterday NW Sewer & Drain saved me $16,900!!!! Another sewer company said I needed $17,500 of repairs and wanted $8,000 up front before starting any work.

NW Sewer & Drain hydrojetted my sewer line yesterday and did an amazing job. On the video cam I was able to watch Spencer cut through one thick wall of roots after another. I was impressed by how the work requires a lot of determination, expertise and physical strength. He stuck with it for 4 1/2 hours to get the line completely clear, even though I had only paid for 2 hrs. My sewer line is now clean and in no need of repairs

We had a plumbing nightmare earlier this year due to roots growing into our sewer line. We worked with one of the region's larger plumbing companies but the problem not only wasn't solved to our satisfaction, it got worse and we feel like we were "uphold".

To finally repair the problem we turned to NW Sewer and Drain. The guys came out, quickly diagnosed the problem, came up with a solution, and repair the affected segment of pipe in a way that didn't require tearing up a lot of landscaping. They were prompt, polite, and professional, and when they were done you couldn

We had a major leak near our water meter, and had these guys come out to check it out and give us an estimate for repair. One of their selling points was the free estimate, whereas another company we had used before charged a trip fee just to come out, even if only for an estimate.

I had narrowed the leak to a specific area just on the other side of the pressure relief valve. The guy that came out was nice enough, but didn't really even get close to investigate. Then he explains to me, very convincingly, that they don't do spot repair, so they would need to replace the entire pipe

Spencer and his crew did a fantastic job and I couldn't be more pleased with my experience with them from start to finish. A bought a home a few months ago and was upset to find out that my sewer line needed replacement. It definitely was a surprise and not an expense I had planned for. NW Sewer and drain were competitively priced and made the project anxiety free for me. They took care of all communications and planning with the city, stayed within budget, and started and completed the project on time. They did such a great job it's almost like they were never there--the only evidence

Called my usual plumber for a sewage line block on one of our facilities buildings at Crosspointe Church in Bothell, he said he would not be able to get there that day so he referred me to NW Sewer and Drain. They were out very quickly and provided excellent service. I had no existing exterior clean out on the building as it is an older building, but they were able to track the line and tap into it, run the hydrojet to clear the line, and install a new clean out for a extremely fair price in a timely manner. I would definitely recommend Spencer and his guys for any sewage problem you may have.
