A Local Plumber Means Something.

How many plumbing companies are just a branch of a national or regional organization?  I suppose that their workers and master plumbers are from your area…but maybe not.  Does it make a difference?  We think it does.  It is as important to choose the right plumber for the job as it is the right dentist or auto mechanic.

Your plumber may go a year without coming to your home or business.  Suddenly, you need them five times in two months.  You never know what plumbing problems may befall you.  Would you rather know your plumber like a friend of the family or have someone different show up every time you call that particular plumbing company?

It seems the choice here is to trust a friend.  This is especially true if that friend has three and a half decades of experience in the area.  Yes indeed, for more than 35 years you and other residents of the Snohomish, WA area have counted on Shawn Allen.  Shawn is a master plumber who is Snohomish’s plumbing professional.  Call Shawn right away.  As always…It starts with a phone call to (425) 367-4744.

Is It Time to Replace Your Sump Pump?

Sorry guys, even though we don’t think about our sump pump like we do our car, our appliances, or our television, eventually it is going to wear out.  How long have you had your sump pump?  If you can’t exactly remember it has probably been for more than a decade.  It really wears out before you notice because it may not be in use for weeks at a time.

Here are some warning signs that your sump pump is on its last legs - 

1.  If you have a pedestal pump that is yesterday’s technology and it may be ready to go.
2.  If it is cycling off and on frequently that is not a good sign even in Seattle’s heavy rains.
3.  Listen carefully.  If your pump runs continuously for a long period…bad sign.
4.  Noise…the noisier the pump the worse it may be.
