Services
Since 1974 our mission has been to provide prompt, reliable, courteous plumbing service for our customers at a reasonable rate. As the eldest son of a plumbing contractor/inspector, I have always enjoyed helping people solve their plumbing problems and that hasn't changed. To accomplish this I have put together a great team of people.
The most common reason for bathroom sinks and tubs to drain slow is hair. First, remove the pop-up or stopper and try to clean out as much hair as possible, reassemble and test. Plungers are usually not very effective on bathroom sinks and tubs, as the hair clings and is not a solid mass easily pushed out of the way.

We were very pleased with the work done for us by Kennedy Plumbing, particularly Randy. We needed to have some plumbing disconnected and reconnected for a new flooring project. There were other suggestions he made for our house that were inexpensive and timely. Randy was always on time, very professional and courteous. I recommend them heartily.

It's sad - these guys use to be a great company but we recently called them and were extremely disappointed. We have a 1977 updated house and wanted to replace some shower parts with a company that is still around but old. The guy on the phone was pretty helpful and said we could replace the old plumbing to the wall, and see what options we had for hardware. The plumber that came out did everything BUT what we asked, did not do what we wanted, charged a lot (I think he did that to get his "hour" in), and even included "misc. fees?" After he left we waited for a couple days

Requested service through the website and Joel gave me a call very quickly. Joel was able to get a plumber, Jerry, out to my home within an hour. Jerry was extremely helpful, fixed our issue plus looked in to a couple questions I had. Thank you Joel and Jerry! You have earned a homeowner customer for life with your friendly attitude and quick, thorough response.

I am never calling these scumbags again and I will recommend against them to all my friends and acquaintances.
They did a lousy 15 minute job yet they charged me 1hour and 15 minutes claiming the time starts when they start driving from their last job towards me and that time to process payment is also charged at the same rate. Some of the materials replaced were quoted at a much lower cost than finally charged or not quoted at all. A bitterly unpleasant experience at a cost of $ 270.00 for what I could have done myself for 1/5 of that. Do yourself a favor. Learn from my experience and do not

Discovered a small leak (drip) in the hot water pipe in the ceiling in our laundry run. Spoke with Joel also sent him a photo of the connection where the leak/drip was coming from. After reviewing the photo he set up an appointment to get it repaired.
Clay (plumber) arrived on-time and got right to work not wasting any time chatting while "on the clock". That really tells you all you need to know about Kennedy plumping.
Clay completed the job very quickly.
On-Time, fast, reliable, and efficient.
BTW, the repair cost was FAR BELOW what I thought it would be. In fact it was

Except for the fact that we had an emergency situation and they were the only company that would come out on 3 hours notice and fix it, which we appreciated greatly, I would give them one star. We had a major underground leak in our main water supply outside the foundation, so water had to be shut off to the house. I dug up the leak and they fixed it and got the water back on. Great! But only after the $500 repair was done was I told that the fix was only temporary and should be redone permanently. I probably would have told them to go ahead anyway since we needed the water back on. But still

They charged us 69.00 for drive-time. We live in Beaverton, which is their service area.
When I called they said they inform everyone that calls in that they charge you for drive time. But I was the one that called so I know that they never informed us and I would never use a plumber that charges for drive time.
You shouldn't either.
Other reviews before me confirm this. They don't tell you they are charging you to drive to your house and sure as hell hope you don't find out about it.

I recently hired Kennedy Plumbing to replace my water heater. Kennedy Plumbing recommended Clay as they explained he was an expert in water heaters. Clay called ahead to let me know when he would arrive. He showed up on time and did an outstanding job. He was very friendly, extremely competent, and went the extra mile to ensure all the air was out of the pipes. He provided excellent customer service and encouraged me to call him if I had any further questions. I would highly recommend Clay and would use him again the next time I need a plumber.

I had Kennedy Plumbing come out originally to fix a leaky toilet before I could move into my condo. Turns out the shut off valve was broken and the plumber could/would not shut off the main water supply to fix it. Cost me $136 for that service call. I then scheduled a shut off with my HOA which I had to wait more than a week to arrange. Rescheduled with Kennedy with the intention of fixing all the valves both bathroom and kitchen. They did not show up and when I called they said I cancelled the appointment, which I did NOT do. Was told by Justin the he couldn't get anyone to come out till

Highly recommend! Clay came to our home three times do repairs on some shotty plumbing that we found during a master bath remodel. He always called ahead to let me know when he would be arriving and brought drop cloths so not to damage our floors. This is a guy who really loves his job and the company he works for! They were reasonably priced and scheduling with Josh was easy and he was very courteous. Would definitely call them again.

We've always had really great service with Kennedy Plumbing and our usual go-to guy, Clay. So far we've had 3 rooms renovated where they've come out to replace all the old galvanized pipe and install new shower/laundry plumbing.
It's sad to see some other poor reviews, but our experience has always been solid with Clay.

Plumber came to do a repair on a job. Broke the existing piping and I had to pay for the material and time for the plumber's mistake that he brought on himself. Upon job completion insulation was not put back that was removed to access the waterline. Would not recommend Kennedy Plumbing and would recommend going elsewhere. Being a tradesman myself this is very poor customer service and poor craftsmanship.

The last 4 reviews they've received of 1 star tells the story. In our case, they called and canceled our appointment 15 minutes before they were supposed to show up. They said they don't have any other plumbers to send out. I asked to speak to the owner and was told "he's retired". They were completely indignant and don't deserve your business.

After reading the other reports about Kennedy Plumbing, I will definitely agree with one which notes poor customer service from Joel.
I had a plumber come out last week. At that point, I was told how much it would cost per hour ($126). I was not informed that they begin the clock when the plumber's previous destination. Therefore, prices will vary and depend upon the location of the plumber's previous job.
The plumber did a fine job. When he arrived, he said, "I will not spend more than 10 minutes and I will not see you anything that you do not need." He arrived at 11am

They came out yesterday to repair a leak at my main water valve. The plumber who arrived told me that it would take 3+ hours and require drywall repair to replace the valve, and that it just needed to be tightened. I was certain that he was wrong (and later learned for sure that he was), but I was in no position to argue with him given that my garage was slowly filling with water.
After he left, I discovered that it is now impossible to turn the valve at all. Since the water is OFF, I'm stuck with the water off until someone comes back to do the repair properly. In addition, he introduced

I paid $212 for a show head replacement. I was shocked.
They were nice and friendly over the phone and their website seems like they are very professional with good reviews, but my experience was not good.
The manager told me after that they will continue to run the clock and charge me until they can receive payment. I paid them when they asked for payment. I believe in paying a fair wage for work but this was way too much.
