Got electric water heater?

This is in a commercial client's business in Burlington, WA. Note the 9 elements.

Sewer stoppage in Mt Vernon., Wa

Think you have a sewer problem? This customer has a 50 year old, 200' long sewer that travels 160' feet under a city sidewalk and a street to tie into the city's combination storm drain/sewer.

I had to use 1-1/2 reels of sewers cable to clear the stoppage.

Christmas water heater in Sudden Valley

Last Christmas Eve, I had this emergency plumbing call from an old customer. The unit was in the finished basement (stuffed full of WWU students) and was in a very cramped space.

This is the new water heater and is installed to code. I did have to add a shut-off,  as there wasn't one.

Water leak at the water meter

Sometimes a small leak can defy even the best DIY'er. This water meter had been repaired five times by the owner of a quadplex in Ferndale, Wa. and, according to a tenant, by another local plumbing outfit.

I had a huge leak in the front yard and Robert replace the entire line within 48 hours. I got other bids and his was lower and the scheduling was flexible for my needs.

They were extremely helpful and super fast. I called for a kitchen drain/ garbage disposal, but I was having a secondary problem in my bathroom and didn't have enough room or the right tools to get the job done. Robert took care of it at the same time for free! I highly suggest calling Ball if you have a plumbing need.

Great service, very professional! Ball plumbing came by to give me an estimate within hours of my call, and did a full repair the next day for a fair, upfront price. The repair was excellent, went above and beyond. This is the second time I've dealt with Ball and I recommend them to anyone looking for a plumber in the Bellingham area.

Very Helpful. Ball plumbing was a great choice when we had an overflowing/clogged toilet. They were up front about the cost, so there were no hidden fees. The plumber was friendly and respectful of our home, and even cleared our slow sink drain at no extra charge. I'd definitely recommend them!

Recommend!! We had Robert replace our 1930's toilet and sewer pipes. He was professional, clearly answered our questions, and did great work. We liked him so much, we called again when we needed to replace a failed water heater. We trusted him to work in our house while we weren't home. He did great work, did it quickly, and with a great sense of humor. For both jobs the work was a fair price. Also, we love the toilet-shaped chocolates they give customers!

They overcharged me and then failed to put my house back the way they found it. The workmanship was very good. It's unclear where the high praise is coming from, unless the other reviews are friends and/or relatives of the company. I have lost faith in Google Reviews, since that is what I had based my patronage of this company upon. I will from this point forward only ask people I know personally for contractor recommendations.

Response from the owner

This review is an anonymous, malicious lie. I would never do what's stated. We're the cheapest in town at $66.00 per hour. On our website, click Services & Rates for more info. All my reviews are from real customers.

I highly recommend Ball Plumbing for their high quality service and superior expertise. We had a kitchen sink installed along with a brand new garbage disposal. Robert went above and beyond to make sure the job was done correctly and in a timely fashion. We couldn't be happier!

Very fast and helpful. Great service by Robert. I had a clogged drain which lead to having to remove the garbage disposal and replace the faucet. bigger job than I originally expected but everything was explained and made sense. I'd use them again.

Great Experience! Ball Plumbing was very helpful when my toilet was overflowing. Even though it was after-hours, Ball Plumbing was at my house within half an hour and it was fixed in another thirty minutes. I highly recommend Ball Plumbing...the price was reasonable and the service was friendly and professional.

Very Thorough and efficient!! They showed up within 30 minute of being called to repair the broken pipes of our 1890's home. They provided excellent service for a decent price, without any hidden costs. I greatly appreciated their friendly and informative way of working with us to fix the problem. I will definitely use them in the future!

Excellent Service and Fair Pricing Real quick and easy evaluation of the situation and fair pricing for sure. Polite service and quick response. I have and older house that needed to be updated to protect the structural integrity of my kitchen and bath. Robert was here the next day after I had called to do the work, quote the price and finish the job thanks for the excellent service and plumbing.
