How it works
Call or book
A real person answers 7 days a week, 7am to 5pm. We confirm an arrival window that actually works for you.
We diagnose
We run the camera the full length of the lateral and talk you through what is on the screen as we go.
You get a flat quote
One number, parts and labor, approved before we start. No surprise line items.
We fix it and clean up
You get the footage and a plain description of what it shows, whether or not it leads to work.
Straight pricing, no surprises
You get a flat quote before any work starts, and it does not change once we are in the wall. The diagnostic fee is credited toward the repair. For full replacements we offer financing, so a failed tank does not have to turn into a bad month.
- Flat quotes approved up front
- Diagnostic fee credited to the repair
- Financing available on replacements

Read all 51 reviews on GoogleAlexandra replaced the waterline from the meter to my house and under the house too. She did it all in one day and at a very fair price. No more leaks! I am very happy I used Northwest Plumbing Solutions and will be calling her back for more work soon. I highly recommend Alex.
My hot water heater fizzled on me Saturday and I called this morning. Christina said Alex could come out today, which was great. She checked out what was wrong and said she could replace it today. Which she did. I was impressed how she got the work done. And I got hot water! Yay! I will Definitely use them in the future, and I will refer them to friends and family. Great to support a local woman owned an operated business.
Alex and the team at Northwest Plumbing are outstanding. We had an emergency with a significant leak on our side of the city water main, discovered first thing the morning by city crews. I reached out to Northwest via their web interface, and Alex and her office team both called back within an hour and a half. She had availability (thankfully!) in the afternoon, and we were fully fixed and back up before 3 PM - amazing. The project also came in squarely within her estimate range at a very fair price, especially for short-notice work. The little things also really mattered - they send text updates when they are en route, when the service is active and complete, and also sent pictures with the invoice via email of the repair before and after the work. It was refreshing to have all of this customer-facing communication. Overall the customer service experience on top of the actual high-quality plumbing service was fantastic. The fact that they are local and woman-owned is also a great bonus.
Camera inspections questions
On older Humboldt housing stock, it is one of the better inspection dollars you can spend. A failing lateral is a five figure problem that a standard home inspection will not catch, because nobody can see inside the pipe.
The real condition of the pipe: root intrusion, offset joints where sections have shifted, bellies that hold water, scale buildup, and collapse. You also see where along the line each problem sits.
Yes. The recording is yours, which matters when you are negotiating a price or handing findings to an agent or a lender.
It is much easier with one. Where there is no cleanout we will find another access point, and we will usually suggest adding one, because it makes every future service call cheaper.
The line has to be clear enough to pass the camera, so a blocked line normally needs clearing first. We will tell you before we start rather than charging you for a run that cannot happen.
Usually under an hour for a typical residential lateral, assuming reasonable access. We talk through what we are seeing while the camera is in the line.
