Homeowner's insurance generally covers household water damage if the damage is sudden and accidental, such as damage caused by burst pipes. It does not cover damage of the sort covered by flood insurance, i.e., rising water from outside; or damage caused over time by lack of maintenance. A water damage claim can be a red flag to insurers as well as to future homebuyers, signaling a likelihood of repeat water claims.

I had a bid yesterday from another plumbing company in Tacoma. It was to repair a leaking outside faucet for a hose hook up. He looked at it and then wanted to see the basement. Came back up and said the whole house needed to be repiped/plumbed We have copper piping. At a cost of over $24,000. I almost fell over. We are both retired and my husband has Parkinson's disease. Not something we wanted to hear in our golden years. Today I called Purdy Plumbing told her the story without mentioning names. She said I know who this is and she was right. They are well known on scamming their customers

Tl:dr: Fantastic, super responsive company that I will absolutely use for any plumbing-related need I have going forward.
So, I tried my hand at wholly inexperienced, handyman plumbing, and it went about as well as you can imagine. I installed a new kitchen faucet, without issue. Everything was working great, until the next morning when there was a puddle on the kitchen floor. I found out the ancient cut-off valves under the sink had given way to the ravages of time. So, I figured, "No problem, they all look the same. I'll just take one off, take it to Lowes and replace it. Easy peasy."

I called with an emergency for a leak. I spoke to a nice lady to set an appointment but she needed to call me back. The next call was her going over rates with until she was interrupted by the plumber. He was rude and rushing me to make a decision as he stated he is already busy. I was going to go with them and needed to call them back to cancel my previous appointment and before I could hang up, I heard him in the background saying we’re not going to go out there etc. it’s nice to know when you call for service, you might be wasting there time. I found another company with 180 degree results

After getting a $590 water bill and being unable to find the issue on my own, I reached out to several plumbing companies for help. Many were happy to head out to help me find the problem. When I contacted Purdy Plumbing, Tammy suggested that I try a few things before they sent someone out Her concern was that I might require the services of a leak detection company, and she wanted me to needlessly spend money.
Based upon her advice, I was able to find the issue and resolve it. This is what I call customer service and customer care. The next time I have an issue, I'm calling you, so you earned

I would use Purdy Plumbing again in a heart beat (if needed!)-- they called to confirm I was using a home warranty for my hot water tank and asked a few questions, very friendly! They said they would call back after looking at the schedule. A few minutes later I got a call from the plumber asking if he could come now and he said he wasn't far away, thankfully that worked out. He was very familiar with the process that needed to be taken since it was going through a home warranty and explained everything to me. He was very patient considering he knew he would have to call a call center. Once

6 weeks without hot water. We have been working through our supplemental home warranty provider, which ran us around for weeks. 1.5 hour wait times on hold just for step one. Anyway, 1 plumber, 1 electrician and 4 weeks later, Rich at Purdy came by and said that our tankless hot water heater needed to be replaced. Pretty shoddy original install in the end. So they shuffled their heavy work schedule and got us a new, upgraded water heater. The customer service was excellent and I felt great confidence in their knowledge. Thank you to Tami (should be on the wish list for any Customer Service business

I used my home warranty to fix a plumbing leak in my bathroom. There was weird miscommunication between what I'd told the home warranty company and what they told Purdy, but we got that cleared up on the scheduling call.
They were flexible with my schedule and were at my home on time. They wore masks and kept everything clean.
Not only did they fix the leak, they also discovered that somehow the hot and cold water was revered in the shower, so they fixed that at the same time.
They happily talked me through the repair and showed me what they did. I would use them again.

Never thought it would be possible for a visit from a plumber to make me happy but this one did. I recently sprung a leak and had to call for professional help. These guys fixed the problem on the first visit and really put me at ease during the process. They were patient, prompt, thorough, communicative, pleasant, and very fairly priced. I highly recommend you give them a try!

Richard came out to my house to work on two jobs. The hard one was a faceplate on a shower valve. Unlike the previous plumber, Richard realized that the cartridge was not originally installed quite right and invented a fix that saved the problem. After going through two other companies, one big and one small, I believe that I have found my plumber.

They came out to my house to do the repair in the first man was very nice but didn't have the proper equipment to finish the job. So he left the next person that came over was horrible and nasty and rude and they literally left feces all over the floor and didn't clean up the mess that they made. Save yourself the trouble and the expense don't call these people

On June 7, 2007, the year after we bought our house, we noticed a leak in an outside hose bib. We called Purdy Plumbing to come out and repair it. He was here for 25 minutes. Installed an 8 inch hose bib and nipple and reconnected it to the existing plumbing. He used a "frost free vacuum breaker" valve. When recently moving furniture in that room, Behind our big roll-top desk, we found that the whole wall was black with mold and the carpet beneath it was as well. All this damage after charging us $191.69. I'm sure to fix it, it's going to be several thousand dollars.

Sadly I didn't listen to the previous reviews. This company overcharges and does horrible work. I paid $1400 to have a gas line and kitchen sink put in. They both leaked. After standing me up twice, 4 kitchen floods and no oven for almost two weeks they came out, angry. I had already hired a handyman to fix both problems for half of what I paid them, I asked to be reimbursed for that expense and they called me a liar and told me to call someone else next time. I had to threaten to sue to get them to agree to send me a check. Worst customer service I have ever had in ANY industry. Please do

I found their behavior to this matter SKETCHY and UNPROFESSIONAL.
RE: outdoor hose bib leaking / water-well psi
When trying to fix my outdoor leaking hose bib, they turned my water-well psi up because they said I needed more water pressure to stop my hose bibs from leaking. He said he didn't work on well-systems, but he worked on it anyway and turned up the psi. I hired a water-well company to come out afterward and they said the plumber turned up the psi way over what it's supposed to be - could have been damaging if I didn't get the water-well guy right out to do it right.
