Why Eastside Repipe & Plumbing Stands Out
Experience That Counts
Plumbing isn’t guesswork. You need experience. And we have it. Years. Hundreds of homes. Problems solved that others can’t fix.

Example: A home in Bellevue had a kitchen sink that always backed up. Other plumbers tried “quick fixes.” Didn’t work. We found a slope issue in the sewer line. Fixed it. Problem gone. For good.
Learning Never Stops
Industry changes fast. Pipes, techniques, codes—they’re always evolving. We stay updated. Always.
PEX and HDPE pipes.
Eco-friendly cleaning.
New local code standards.
We adapt. That’s part of what makes us expert drain and sewer line plumbers.

Hydro Jetting: Blast the Clogs
High-pressure water. That’s hydro jetting. It cleans pipes inside out. Grease? Gone. Scale? Gone. Old clogs? History.
Better than chemicals. Safer for pipes. Fast.
Video Inspections: See Before You Fix
We send a camera down your pipe. No guessing. We see cracks, roots, misalignments, blockages. Then we fix it right.
No surprises. No wasted time. Just solutions.

Transparent pricing. No hidden fees.

Common Drain & Sewer Problems
Slow Drains
Slow drains are the warning sign. Often it’s:
Hair and soap.
Grease in the kitchen.
Sediment in older pipes.
Temporary fixes don’t cut it. Professional help stops it for good.
Sewer Backups
Backups are messy. Expensive. Health hazard. Causes:
Roots in the line.
Collapsed pipes.
Heavy rain flooding the system.
We diagnose with cameras. Fix with hydro jetting or replacements. Done right.
DIY Fixes Often Fail
Pour chemicals down. Use a snake. Temporary relief. But the problem comes back.
Sometimes worse. Pipes get corroded. Clogs pushed deeper. More damage.
Professionals fix the root cause, not just symptoms. That’s how our drain cleaning prevents clogs & backups.
