We ordered a dishwasher from a big chain store and had a disappointing experience with the store's installation team. We quickly realized needed a professional plumber and called Clean Plumbing. He knew exactly what he was doing and was able to install a dishwasher and kitchen faucet with no problem. Since we had such a great experience, we asked him to look at two toilets to see if they needed to be replaced. He didn't try to pressure us to replace, but let us know we could hold off on replacing. We appreciated the fair prices and honesty. If needed, we will definitely use Clean

Chris Swenson really is the best plumber ever. Does just an excellent job, and is such a nice guy. Recently, I had a very bad leak coming from my property, and water was running out to the sidewalk. Instead of just jack hammering away at my patio, Chris really studied the situation and did some tests. By using his smarts, he was able to identify the location of the leak, and no damage to the patio was necessary.
I've used Chris on multiple projects. Every time he's done such a great job. This was the first outdoor project. And again, I'm still super happy. Thanks Chris

This is the 2nd time we've called Chris and 3 years later, my original review still holds true. He replaced our water heater 3 years ago and this time he replaced our bathroom faucet and drain. He was early to the appointment and didn't brag about how he's been the business for 50 years! Came and did the job and did it well. Will be using him for other plumbing needs and will definitely recommend him to anyone!

I have used Chris at Clean plumbing 2 times now. Each time, he has responded quickly and made arrangements within a few days remedy my issues. He has replaced my water heater and replaced a garbage disposal at a rental. He texts back quickly, his prices are fair and He gets the job done quickly. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again for any plumbing issues that arise in the future!
