Prefect! I don't write reviews, but I feel I need to! First time I've ever hired a plumber. I had to do it on blind faith. A one man show! Returned call in one day ( 2 hours for me ). Gave me a tentative quote from pictures. Turned out with some miner changes to be almost perfect. Worked with me on some options. Worked with my schedule. Showed up right on time. In and out with zero problems. He had everything need to do the job with him. Exactly what you want when you hire a company. Very pleased!! read more

My first contact with Andy was 4 years ago when Home depots installer said they could not install a new dishwaswasher in the spot my old DW was in. I somehow contacted Andy and he said no problem. I was pressured for time as my OPEN House was scheduled the next week. He got right out there even though I was not in the home and took care of it. Billing me after. I was planning on adding a bathroom to my downstairs. He not only did the needed plumbing he advised us in how to prep, and meet the permit requirements. I have also used him to add outside sprinklers and install a new DW in the new home. All reasonably priced. read more

I have struggled for over a year with main line backups and have had a few companies come out to clear the line but not getting an answer as to what is causing the problem. The last time it happened was less than two months ago and now again. I am so glad I found Andy Jahn. He was able to come out the day I called and actually diagnosed what the problem was and fixed the issues! It is such a relief to know that things were finally done right and I can put this stressful problem behind me! read more

We were so thankful that Andy showed up so quickly for our plumbing repair! He was able to make the repairs quickly, and was so nice and efficient. We will definitely call him again when we need a plumber, and highly recommend his business. read more

Situation: I've had a slow leak that comes and goes for a few months but it was getting consistent and getting worse over a three week period. I got a recommendation from Service Magic and had another plumbing outfit come and take a look, provide a diagnosis, and give me an estimate. After spending 15 minutes, and without providing possible root causes, the recommendation was to change out my entire shower unit for $3,000. I don't know a lick about plumbing but I know replacing an entire shower unit to fix a leak is not the first course of action. Remedy: After a few more days agonizing on what to do since my sour experience confirmed what most of us believe about plumbing "professionals" I figured I'd turn to Yelp where real people give real ratings. I saw a few reviews and decided on Andy since he had a flawless rating although I was suspect since he only had a few raters. I believe in giving the little guy a chance. Andy came to my house on short notice and was very flexible in the time. Andy spent about 30 minutes doing a thorough investigation. He was knowledgeable and answered all my questions. At the end of the day, we couldn't confirm what was causing the leak without opening up a wall or floor (so we thought) and Andy recommended changing the valve cartridge as a start and provided a quoted. He even walked me through how to do it myself and where I could find the parts. A couple of days later I took a shot at it and after about 10 minutes in, I just realized that I did not have the tools to do this job efficiently and effectively. I gave Andy a call and we set up some time. He came out, showed me his pricing sheet (he doesn't make up his quotes) and it was the same as what he said before, I agreed, signed the sales slip and he started the work. He had to run to the store since the parts he had did not match (older home) and did not charge anything extra. He walked me through every step and again answered all of my questions so that I could learn what he was doing. Andy tested everything and the job was completed in about 2 hours. (Note, that the work he performed was based on his experience as to what the problem could have been and not necessarily what was since I did not want to open up any walls or floors.) Great...I thought. About an hour later, my roommate jumps into the shower and I hear this dripping sound. Obviously I wasn't sure and it made me have doubts. I gave Andy a call and he was over in about 20 minutes at dinner time. He opened everything again did a double check and he felt everything was good to go. Andy however was not yet satisfied. We talked about opening up the shower to be able to see the root cause but he stopped me because he wanted to see my other bathroom (it shared a wall). Through his diligence, Andy discovered an access way between both bathrooms. He was able to get back there, find the root cause, and made the appropriate adjustments. We ran the water; hot, cold, shower, faucet and everything worked without a drip. Andy made further recommendations on some work that could be done said nothing was urgent. At the end of the day, a good honest plumber is tough to find. But I'm glad Andy is one of them. He wants to help you and not just make a quick buck. Not only did he do some work, but he found a long time customer. When I'm ready for those other projects he mentioned, he's first on my list to call. Btw, he keeps the crack to himself. :) read more

I called Andy yesterday and asked him to come today to fix problem that my parents had. He promised to be at my parents' place around 4 PM but called around noon and said he can be there in 45 minutes. He showed up, evaluated the problem, and gave me price quote for two options to fix the issue. Upon completion of the job, he took my Amex over the phone, and I received email receipt with image of work description. Below are the pros and cons for using Andy's service: Pros: Prompt, Neat, Affordable, Professional, Punctual, and he actually shows up unlike other companies. Cons: None I can't praise him enough. I am super happy and so are my parents. I HIGHLY recommend Andy's services. Thank you, Andy! read more

Andy came through for us today!!!! I called him last minute for a job we needed done on the spot and he came out within 20 minutes. He was friendly, professional and very knowledgeable. I appreciate people like himself! Thank you for your work read more

I needed PRV installed as the water pressure to the house was 92PSI. I had the good fortune to call Andy. I would give this man 10 stars if I could, called in aA he was out that PM. Andy even gave me some advice on how to save some money, took the advice. This man works for himself and is real professional. I got the required work done, it was cost effective and while Andy was waiting me to finish my part of the job he tackled another job that needed correction. Not only is Andy a great plumber he is nice person, the kind one wants to work and interact with. One cannot go wrong in hiring Andy Tim A Kent Wash read more

I'll admit it, I panicked... It was a moment of weakness... Could you blame me? My fridge is encrusted with magnets featuring that waving guy you see on busses and billboards. I'm not even sure how they got there, they seem to just wave at each other and multiply while I'm not looking. With that kind of saturation, it's not surprising that when you send a brand new drill bit through your hot water line and firing a stream of magma in your face, panic sets in and you call the number on that magnet. After leaving a voicemail, I calmed down and found Andy on Yelp. In no time flat, Andy himself called me back, and even attempted to walk me through how to fix my gaffe on the phone! Despite his packed schedule, Andy fit me in the next day. I was overjoyed at the informative and affirming phone call with Andy. The waving guy company called me back, and told me they'd be out in the morning, and there would be no charge to come out...nobigwhoop right? The waving guy came out towards the end of their appointment window, and gave me a obscene quote for a svelte 5/8" gap. Andy called me when he said he would, and then showed up when he said he would, did the work he said he would and charged me less than 1/3rd of what the other guy would have! The whole interaction was pleasant, and unlike any other professional I've ever hired...to borrow from another reviewer, it really did feel like a friend coming over and helping out! Andy is honest and genuine, and if you are ever hesitant about calling a plumber, those feelings will melt away when you call Andy. As for those waving guy magnets, they're now in the garbage, replaced by Andy's magnets. read more

Andy Jahn Plumbing & Rooter - If I had heeded the nail plate, I wouldn't have gotten to meet Andy - Water Heater Installation/Repair Near Me - Auburn, Washington

We had just bought a house and in less than 24 hours had a backup happening. In our panic we used another service for a triage, but wanted a 2nd opinion for the "full fix". A couple of friends recommended Andy Jahn Plumbing to us. He was able to come out and we went over everything. Couldn't put off what needed to be done, but his rates were considerably less for the pipe lining we needed. He talked us through the various options and he even took our finances into consideration and we were able to get the work done and spread out our payments so we could handle it all. I was very glad to have met him and he was very candid with us and I appreciated it. He will be the first we call if we should ever need anything. read more

We developed a leak in our hot water tank. In spite of the ice and snow, Andy was out within the hour. He did a great job repairing our hot water tank. Thankfully, it just needed a couple of parts replaced. We didn't need a new hot water tank. I recommend Andy highly. read more

Andy responded to my warranty claim to fix a leaking toilet in my condo. He called me promptly and scheduled a visit. He wasn't able to find the leak on the the first visit. I called again and told him it was still leaking. He came out again and fixed the leak as well as replaced all my stop gap valves which needed to be replaced. He was friendly, prompt, knowledgeable and did a great job. I will definitely use him again. read more

I should have left a review much sooner. Like, 6 years ago when he swapped out my hot water heater in my new home. Or one of the times he came out to my house at odd early/evening hours to accommodate my schedule to assess and/or fix various other things like the shower leak. I also called him to look over the pipes in a house I purchased in 2014 after selling my old house. He's prompt, friendly, helpful, skilled and knowledgeable, and I won't call anyone else. Call him. read more

Andy is a great plumber and has wonderful work ethics. He lets you know what needs to be done without any up selling. Pricing is fair. I would definitely call Andy again for any plumbing issues. read more

Our sump pump quit working and Andy came out, discovered the problem, ordered the part, and fixed it as soon as it came in. He was prompt, responsible and polite. Thank you for helping us out as quickly as possible. read more

Andy Jahn is a master! I'm so happy to have come across his business in Dex. He was punctual and fast and replace my uncle's water line from the meter to the house in 4 hours! He's a really nice guy and his prices are very reasonable. Smiles! read more

Great Plumber! Terrific Service! Andy showed up Happy to take on the task, and his sheer determination to help really impressed me! Look No Further! read more

By chance Andy happened to be in the area when I called and came by within the hour. Did the diagnostic on our leaky shower drain and was able to start work right away; which was extremely convenient. Completed work in a short timeframe and did a great job. He also very happily answered my questions about some other plumbing issues / concerns in our newly occupied home. I will definitely call Andy next time we need a plumber! read more

No one loves to have plumbing problems but Andy Jahn provided excellent service . We've had him help us with several repairs that were beyond our DIY fix it skills - broken flange on toilet and a leak from shower coming through our ceiling. Each time he presented clear estimates with options for how to get the job done. Friendly and helpful. Got the job done quickly and timely. Cleaned up everything -- even though he had to cut out a hole in wall (or floor), he did it in a way he could replace drywall, screwing the piece back in so you hardly noticed. read more

Andy has done plenty of work for me in the last few years and always does a great job. He recently did new drain lines for a home sale and ended up knocking of some of the cost due to him finishing quicker than he thought. Very rare to get an honest plumber nowadays! Highly recommend! read more

Andy was nice and courteous, initially. 1 star for that. He could not get my drain unclogged with either one of his augers. He worked on the bathtub drain for 10 or 15 minutes and then on my kitchen sink drain for 20 or so. He blamed someone "intentionally trying to clog the drain" and an incorrectly installed joint in the concrete (which seems to actually be true.) He said in his 20 years of experience (it says 10 on his website) he had never seen anything like it. He suggested ripping the wall open, or inside the cabinet, and fixing it that way. He sent me an estimate of over a thousand dollars to do that. I hesitated and decided to sleep on it. Boy am I sure glad I did. He charged me $160 and left me with a (still) clogged drain, filled my tub (where the kitchen sink was backing up into), dirtied my bathtub, and left a foot of greasy, standing water. It did seep through eventually. He said, $30 for the fee to come out and half of what the cheaper service he quoted me was. On his way out he said over his shoulder, "Sorry it didn't work out," like a 13 year old boy breaking up with a summer fling. I called Mr. Rooter a week later, as Andy had wasted one of my precious few days off the previous week. I asked them to please unclog my drain without any construction. They said they could do it, and the guy who came out was able to after maybe 20 minutes. It ended up costing $607 to use the water jet machine to unclog and clean my pipes. Worth every penny. I just wish I had my $160 back, but I guess it was a cheap price to pay to get him out of my house. Oh well. Glad I didn't let this guy near my walls or cabinet. Don't call him, just shell out the cash to get a professional to help you. Thanks, Andy. read more

Highly recommended! Andy was able to replace my leaky water heater within a few hours after I called him. I appreciated his promptness! He is professional and knowledgeable, and very fair with charges. Thank you Andy for a pleasant experience! read more

Andy did a great job putting in a gas line from my garage to my upstairs laundry room for my new gas dryer. He was done in less than 2 hours! Prior to getting his estimate I got one from roto-rooter - Andy's was 1/3rd the cost! He was a delightful person and looking back I wish I would have baked him cookies or something! read more

Really enjoyed working with Andy. He actually didn't even charge me for coming out to take a look at my plumbing problem. I had flooding, but he couldn't see a cause, so he gave me some suggestions on how/why to proceed, even went back to check again - but still didn't see anything that he would need to rip apart and fix. Very personable and professional - like a good friend who just wants to help out. Thanks Andy. read more

I owe Andy J. a review. He reconnected my water and sewer services back in 2013. Great customer service, reasonable pricing, straight forward answers, not hidden fees/charges. Definitely recommended. read more

I needed to replace my hot water heater and called Andy without hesitation. He had already helped me several times, once in doing an emergency repair to a burst pipe in my garage, and another time just by giving free advice on a kitchen faucet over the phone. Always professional, friendly, reasonably priced and dependable. I recommend him to anyone in my area who needs a plumber. Needless to say the water heater was installed without issue, and the pipe repair several years ago is still doing just fine. A+, always a pleasure to deal with Andy, even if the need for plumbing comes with some unwanted stress. Thank you Andy! read more

Andy fixed an existing water heater. Andy has great skills. He did the job properly and I have absolute confidence in the installation. I'd give his skills a five. Regarding someone's previous post below - my experience was similar. Andy blamed the heater at first, also, and even convinced the heater company on the phone that it was the a heater defect. But he eventually figured out what was wrong with the plumbing hookup itself and fixed it. His prices run on the very high side. He charged $700 for under 3 hours work. He then claimed other plumbers routinely charge $250/hr, and some charge $450/hr and that it was a deal. Not true! I'd give the price he charged a zero if I could. Good customer service means not taking advantage of people when they are in a tough situation. read more

I called Andy about a stopped up plumbing system. He said he couldn't make it out for 4 days, but told me it might be a septic baffle blockage and told me how to check it myself. Sure enough it was the septic baffle. Problem solved Thanks Andy! Your now my go to plumber! read more

I hired Andy to do a re-pipe in 2016 and he did an all around very professional job. I have a very confusing double sink, garbage disposal and dishwasher mess in my kitchen and the set up he figured out was very organized, simple and will be easy to fix if I ever have a problem. His work is very clean. He was very responsive trustworthy and I highly recommend him. read more

Andy actually answered the phone when I called, arrived promptly, fixed all my little complaints perfectly. He is professional, thorough and I'm so happy I found him. You won't be disappointed. read more

On the recommendation of Rely Local Renton I hired Andy Jahn to convert my 3 handle shower to a single handle shower. I supplied my own shower valve & trim kit, a Moen from Mclendons. I had the wall open & water off when Andy arrived. For the simple 2 hour job it was $400 (which he later claimed was a reduction in his usual rates). He charged me a $20 mileage fee in spite of living just a few miles from me. After a few months, the shower started leaking again. Andy came back out & left an estimate of another $500 to "attempt to fix" what he thought was faulty parts from moen (not warrantied by him since I supplied them). I called moen, since their products are guaranteed for life & provided them several pictures of the install. They told me Andy had failed to install the faucet valve with the "plaster guard" they supplied. This caused the valve to flex forward when the trim screws were installed & created the leak. Moen sent me a new stop tube & escutcheon (trim pieces) and advised me to install a wood brace between the studs & strap the valve body to it so it couldn't flex forward. This solved the problem. As a licensed plumber i expected Andy to install my supplied part correctly & that did not happen. He also did not mention any concerns with the parts I supplied. I thought it was rude for him to leave another $500 estimate. $900 total to swap out a shower valve????? Seriously???? That is NOT good customer service. I would never hire him again & I cannot recommend him. In response to Andy's reply, yes, Moen sent me new parts, however, they maintain the cause of the leak was Andy's installation which did not include using the supplied "plaster guard" to hold the valve body behind the wall in its proper position. They sent me a new plaster guard, but I could not install it without cutting the pipe, so we strapped the valve to a cross brace that we added instead. that was the other option recommended by Moen. read more

Fast, professional and clean. Andy did a fantastic job with the repairs. A real genuine guy who takes pride in what he does. Highly recommended and will definitely call again in the future. read more

I've been looking for a good plumber that is affordable. Well I found one out of two. Andy Jahn is definitely affordable but he is not just good he his great! My plumbing had multiple issues and so we prioritized them . Lucky for me hes was able to clear up multiple clogging issues in one swoop and brought down the charges to reflect that. after finishing in the bathroom he checked out thekitchen pipes and sais it was an easy fix that he would charge over a $100 to do but I could so myself for $30.00 in materials. He then showed me what to do. How often has a plumber done that for you? He was ontime and fast. Plus he's a really nice guy to talk to. I highly recommend Andy! read more

Called him at 9 at night expecting a machine. It was him. I explained I was going to be showing my house on Sunday and wanted a slow drip fixed by then. To my surprise he stayed how about tomorrow morning? He arrived promptly and called ahead to confirm. He walked me through the fix being easy and the part under warranty by Moen and I could request it if them. As I needed it fixed before the show I g he offered to do and he would rebate me the money when I got the replacement in and provided it to him. He was so nice and friendly I asked him to do two other minor items he knocked out in minutes. Excellent. read more

Andy came out and did a good job installing new plumbing in our basement. Then our septic backed up...thankfully after the bathtub was installed..it could have been worse. So not knowing why it was backing up, we called Andy for help or advise as to what to do and he stated it was his "family day" (Saturday, I think) and really had no suggestions. I got it figured out by calling a septic place, we unclogged the baffle and we are good. read more

Another great experience with Andy Jahn Plumbing! The sink in my bathroom has been clogged for weeks and most of my family has come over to try and help-to no avail! Finally, we decided to call Andy again after the great job did fixing my kitchen sink after I broke it. He was able to come today, his price was reasonable (my parents used someone else and paid almost twice as much and had to wait five days to be "fit it"), and he was able to deal with the chaos of my family being home. I would recommend him to anyone! read more

My daughter read about Andy Jahn through Renton Mom's - he had great reviews - so we hired him to install a new Blanco stainless steel kitchen sink, waste disposal, and Hansgrohe faucet. We called on a Thursday, and he arrived on Monday - on time - and gave us a fair estimate. He then did the work that morning. He was polite, organized, and clean. And he did a beautiful job - not one scratch on the sink. It has been 3 weeks now and everything works great. We are very happy now to have an experienced plumber we can call on for home improvements or emergencies. read more

I've certainly had my fair share of "service" helpful referral companies of which I've only had one good experience so no more of that I go right to DEX or YELP and guess what I find ? Andy ! I had a leak under a rental home that did not smell very good as I was told by the occupants. Well, I swung by late that night to see if we could fix it and realized this was not a job for rookies. Old cast iron with a crack and leaking. Soon as we got home we researched looking for a Plumber. Andy's reviews were great so we gave him a call that next morning. Within 2 hours he was on site. Gave us recommendations on how to clean up the site before he could work and said he'd be back when it was cleaned up and safe to work in. He stayed in contact with the clean up crew and immediately upon their completion he crawled back under (very tight space) sent us some pictures via text, an estimate of the cost (very reasonable) and did the work. From the time we were notified of the leak, researched a plumber, had a company clean up the sewage, and ultimately Andy fix the leak we were under 24 hours. Unbelievable !! We would and will continue to recommend Andy for any of our plumbing needs. Thanks again Andy!! read more

Just wanted to take a moment to add another enthusiastically positive review for Andy Jahn. When Grandma's water line sprang an underground leak we weren't sure just who to call. After reading the reviews for a number of different contractors here on Yelp, we decided to give Andy a call due to the genuinely positive things people had to say about him. It was getting a bit late so I emailed him rather than calling and Andy emailed right back and we made arrangements for him to come out the next day. Long story short, a couple of days later Grandma had a completely new water line from the meter to the house. Andy was very prompt and professional and he made things as painless as possible - plus his prices were quite reasonable and he was very up front about what issues might cause costs to exceed the estimate (for example if the inlet pipe for the house turned out to be in a different location than originally suspected). In our case everything went exactly according to the estimate. The bottom line here is that Andy is a good guy and a family man who is working hard to make an honest living by helping people resolve their plumbing related issues. If you need some plumbing work done, then give him a call, I expect he will take very good care of you as well. read more
