I had Daniel come out to my home (wore a mask the whole time) and replace a section of my old galvanized shower plumbing with copper and pex pipe, install a new mixing valve, run pex to the site of my future double sink vanity and split our one drain pipe into two. Daniel was friendly, professional and punctual. He didn't mind me asking all sorts of plumbing questions while he worked. From start to finish, CH Kruse plumbing was very easy to work with, well priced and professional. I'd highly recommend them for any of your plumbing needs. read more

Made appointment, called when they were on the way, showed up on time, got to work and completed the work based on time estimate. Very happy. read more

Sent a request for a fairly simple estimate on replacing 3 toilets and never received a response. That is all I know.

I highly recommend Kruse Plumbing. Danny quickly found the source of my water leak and addressed the problem immediately. They were able to patch the water line the same day. The staff is friendly and reliable. Kruse Plumbing did an excellent job. read more

My hot water heater rusted out and water was running all over the garage floor. I called a friend and he recommended Kruse Plumbing. I called Kruse and they gave me a quote over the phone and service technician arrived within one hour. He measured the hot water heater, called someone at the company and someone drove out with my new water heater. In the meantime, the service tech took out the old one and then when the new one arrived, he installed it right away. Great, friendly service from the office person and the service tech. When the invoice arrived, there were no surprise extra charges as I've received from other companies. I highly recommend Kruse Plumbing. Fast, courteous, and efficient service. read more

Do you have polybutylene pipes and a Manabloc manifold? My house in Vancouver does and I had a difficult time finding a plumber with experience to work on these systems. In fact, I contacted several companies and either didn't hear back at all or was met with confusion by the person answering the phone as if they didn't even know what a Manabloc manifold was. That is until I called Kruse Plumbing. Right from the first phone call they were so friendly and responsive and knew just what I was talking about. Cierra quickly arranged a time for their estimator, Bob, to come out to my house to inspect my system and write up an estimate. Bob showed up exactly on time to the minute and was very professional and knowledgeable about Manablocs and had the estimate to me via email the next day. Manabloc replacements aren't cheap but I thought the bid was very reasonable based on the research I had done, so I hired them right away. A few days later, Kevin was dispatched to my house to do the replacement. Kevin was great. Very confident and has replaced many Manablocs. I was told by another plumber that the drywall around the Manabloc cabinet would have to be cut back on both sides to expose the pipes and fittings. When I asked Kevin if he would need to do that he said, 'no, I've replaced Manablocs in tighter spaces than this one'! True to his word, the drywall was left intact which saved me even more money by not having to hire a drywall tradesman to put everything back together. Lastly, I was expecting this project to take up most of the day. Kevin was in and out in under 3 hours tops. So, if you are looking for a reliable plumbing company that actually seems to want your business and will treat you right, then I would highly recommend Kruse Plumbing.. read more

Evidently this company has changed its practices and philosophy. It appears they are only doing project work and no long provide services. I had used them previously on a couple of occasions (serveral years ago) and was very happy with the experience. THINGS HAVE CHANGED. I called on the 22nd of Nov to have a plumber come out and check a leak identified in my water meter. Even though they told me they were not currently doing service calls, the person I checked with told me she would check with the manager to see if they could help me since I was a returning customer. She called me back and made an appointment for today 12/1 to determing the leak and provide an estimate if it was a main line leak. First appt of day, window of 8-10 am. 9:40 am I received a call by someone else that indicated that the appointment should not have been made (terribly sorry for the inconvenience) because they are NOT DOING SERVICE CALLS. read more

Great job. One handle was ridiculously difficult to turn and the stopper needed adjustment. Jaime changed out the kit on top. It works great. Stopper was adjusted too. Very nice guy too. I will use these guys again should the need arise. read more

This place never showed up for there appointment and this was the second place I called for services and they did the same thing , they never called us to coming or reschedule the appointment. we got nothing I will not be using them... read more

We had a leak under our kitchen sink and I called several plumbers but the only one that actually answers was Jennifer at Kruce. She was very sweet and fit us in right after the weekend... Monday promptly at 8 am Bobby came out and fixed the leak. Turned out we needed a new faucet so he recommended we pick our own and he was able to come this morning right on time. Terrific job. Bobby is such a nice guy! Anytime we need a plumber we know who to call! read more

It's been several months since I had this company out to do some work and I've just had an issue come up which reminded me to write a review. The main issue I called for, a hose bib replacement, wasn't even attempted. The tech arrived a few minutes before I did and couldn't wait to tell me that although it obviously needed repair, he wouldn't touch it because the siding would need to be cut away to access the bib fully. Ok? Not only was I disappointed that the main job couldn't be done, he also didn't offer any alternatives or direction on how I should proceed. I then asked to have the hardware on my two tubs replaced. The tech had to leave to get parts which took a while, and when he returned he reeked of cigarette smoke, which was off putting. He replaced the parts, and told me that the front plastic piece for the tub handle didn't fit and another one would be needed, leading me to believe he'd ordered it and would put it on later. (The one I have is really old and yellowed.) Nope, I've never heard another peep and don't have the part. The final thing, which I didn't notice until after he'd left was the ridiculously shodding job of caulking he'd done around the new tub parts. Seriously, it looks like a child did it. When I get home tonight I'll take a photo and attach to this review. All told, I would not recommend this company based upon my experience with this tech. I paid around $500 to have some surface tub parts replaced and the work done was not up to par. By the way, another local plumbing company is taking care of the complete hose bib repair, siding and all, so again I'm not sure why that couldn't be done by CH Kruse, although given the quality of the other work done it's probably just as well. read more

We've used Kruse plumbing several times and continue to use their service as we are always pleased. We just had Kruse visit for a pipe that burst with the recent harsh winter (pipe froze). Service was prompt, thorough, and informative. The price point was honest and our pipe no longer leaks. We are very satisfied and recommend Kruse when asked for recommendations. read more

As always, Kruse Plumbing provided prompt, efficient, reliable service. We've had many unfortunate water issues over the years, and Kruse Plumbing has been there every time to make things as easy and smooth as possible. Thank you once again! read more

They were very courteous when I called to inquire about the installation of a whole house filtration system. They explained that they were very busy and gave me the name of another company in Vancouver that specializes in that. I had a nice conversation with one of the owners about shared business experiences. read more

On time, Got in, got the job done in about 45 mins. They also did a good job at giving us options and getting the quote right on the money. read more

I was hopeful from the many awesome reviews of this plumber, but had a less-than-awesome experience. I called on a Friday to request a bid for a decent-sized remodel project I'm doing (including adding a half-bath, replumbing a basement bath, etc.) and was told I would receive a call from the estimator, Ryan, to schedule an appointment. I knew I wouldn't hear back over the weekend, but no calls on Monday. I waited patiently until Tuesday afternoon before calling again. I was able to talk to Ryan, who apologized for dropping the ball, but said they're really busy and it would be had to do a bid. But then he tried to do right and scheduled an appointment for two days later to do a walkthrough for the scope of work, so I thought all was good. Until he no-showed at the appointment. So if you can get them to actually do the work, it's probably great. Getting to that point was the hard part for me and I've since moved on. The moral of this story is that if you say you're going to do something, then do it. Don't string someone along when you really don't have the time to follow through. read more

Ryan is great. After the big freeze in Dec 2013, he not only dealt with the insurance, he re-designed the piping in my floathome and handled two separate bills, one for the insured damage and one to re-pipe the house. The crew replaced all the PVC with PEX, and realigned the piping from under the home (where one would normally have need a diver) up into the house so it wouldn't happen again. They were courteous, cleaned up every time and fun to have here. He even arranged to have the drywall repaired for me. Complete service with complete satisfaction. I would highly recommend these folks to work on any plumbing problems you have. read more

Such a good experience from a frustrating situation at home. Kirk took care of my needs very quickly and promptly, as well as helping to coordinate with another company for other work needing to be done. If I ever found myself in need of a plumber again, I would not hesitate to call these guys! read more

These folks were so nice! After a bathroom remodel, our hot water in the tub wasn't getting near hot enough. I called to make an appointment and the very nice lady at CH Kruse suggested I google and watch a quick You Tube video, because the repair could be something simple. She was correct and I was able to fix it within five minutes AND she saved us $200 for the appointment. I will definitely call in the future for our plumbing needs! read more

I recently used C.H. Kruse for replacing my water heater. They were easy to work with, quick to respond and the plumber who did the work was friendly, fast and thorough. We are very happy to have hot water again! I highly recommend them and would gladly use them in the future. read more

We just had a new water heater installed by Danny of Kruse Plumbing, and he did an excellent job. I was very happy they could come out and do the install the next day when I called. Our 25 year old water heater started leaking, and less than 24 hours later, we have a new water heater. He wore a mask the entire time, for those of you who are concerned, and the work area was left very clean. Thanks to a speedy response and installation, we had minimal interruption in our hot water service. read more

Kirk was professional, friendly and punctual. His honesty was appreciated by recommending we order a missing part rather than replace the entire shower fixture. We are very happy with the repair work! The bath / shower handle now works perfectly. We also appreciated Jennifer in the office who was always friendly, professional and efficient in scheduling appointments. read more

So, I thought I could replace the junky old spigot on the outside of my house myself, and I tried doing it on the friday before Memorial Day weekend. Long story short, I broke the shit out of that spigot but I could NOT get it unscrewed, and it doesn't have a shut off valve, which meant that I couldn't turn the water to my house back on until it was fixed. I called up C.H. Kruse Plumbing, and after a sob story about potentially having to spend the 3 day weekend festering in a house with no water, they agreed to swing by that afternoon, despite not really having official availability that day. He managed to get the spigot off, and I finished up as I had previously planned. I'm so grateful they were able to come help me out! I will absolutely have them out to do other work for me in the future. read more

I highly recommend this company. I had a leak from the ceiling that I thought was going to be really expensive. I called at the last minute on Thursday night. Bobby came out Friday and located the leak and fixed it. He also added an access door so we can get into the tub area in the future and we also didn't need to do drywall repair as predicted. It was inexpensive and super efficient. He was super friendly. We will definitely use this company for all of our future needs. read more

Last Friday, 1/12/18, a water line broke coming into my home. My water was shut off at the meter and I began trying to contact a plumber to help me. I tried to call 18 plumbing companies. I left messages, was referred to some one else or no one answered. Finally I reached Kruse Plumbing, by then I was frantic and Jennifer was wonderful. I was so excited someone finally answered the phone!! Bobby came out and located the problem. Carl (the owner) even came by. It was Friday late, before a 3 day week end. They were back here early Monday morning (holiday) dug up the under ground line, repaired it and my landscaping looks like they were never here! Amazing. I would highly recommend this company to anyone. I will never call anyone else. Maryann Green read more

Great company that is down to earth and understands customer service. I am completely satisfied. While I'm hoping to not need their business in the future, I know I will be in good hands when the time comes. Thank you C.H. Kruse. read more

Just called to get a quote on a shower install and was told that they were too busy to give me a quote... I didn't tell them that it needed to be right away or anything. I was shocked that a company would turn away business. read more

Ryan, the owner of the company just showed up at my house in person and was extremely apologetic about the whole situation. He gave me a crash course in plumbing while I was here with him. He really knows his stuff. we developed a plan for a low cost solution first before the expensive re-pipe solution which I really appreciate. I really felt like he cared about my situation and the previous mistakes. I am going to give these guys another shot and I recommend you do too. If the owner cares enough to come out in person to correct a mistake that's a company you want to do business with. read more

My disposal broke down just in time for thanksgiving. Luckily I called C H Kruse Plumbing and they had someone there the next day! They called before hand to let me know they were coming, it took them an hour and they had everything they needed to do the work with them. (PS Great customer service) The work got done very quickly and they were clean while doing so. The new disposal works perfectly! Thank you so much for helping us and making this SO easy and affordable. read more

I just found out this morning that I had a leak behind my kitchen sink. The water was spraying out a pipe behind the wall and I had no idea how to turn the water off. I called C. H. Kruse and they were able to send someone out within the hour. Kirk looked at it and was able to give me a knowledgeable and realistic assessment of the situation. He fixed the problem and suggested some next steps to help keep this from happening again in the future. Now I just hope my insurance company proves to be as easy to deal with. I will definitely be using C. H. Kruse again. read more

I got some work done in March of 2014 and today my faucet started squirting water when I went to put on the new trim piece. I'm a single mom with two kids and having to turn my water off for any extended period of time is disastrous... they had someone to my house in less than a half hour the faucet fixed in less than 20 minutes and didn't charge me anything. The guy left saying " nope we just want you to be happy with the work we do." Told me to have a great night and was on his way. I couldn't be happier and I hope I don't need anymore work done anytime soon but if I do I won't use anyone but them. Thank you!!!! read more

CH Kruse is a top notch! I had a leak in my upstairs shower coming through the ceiling into my kitchen. I was able to book a appointment in 2 days and Kirk O. serviced my repair today. He is such a asset to your company. He was very polite and accurate in pinpointing the leak and was kind enough to explain the repair and fix promptly in a timely manner. I will absolutely recommend to friends and family C.H. Kruse Plumbing. read more

Very happy with C.H. Kruse Plumbing! Arrived on time, was thorough, fixed the issue quickly and left the area clean. Estimate (for both time and bill) was accurate and very reasonable. I will definitely use this company again! read more

Ryan is super!! He is reliable and honest! I had used him several times in the past, and will have no problem using him in future!

Kruse has done 3 jobs for me now. They always do what they say. Latest job, back flow connect for my sprinkler system. Of course I didn't excavate enough. They showed up, no complaints and got to work; excavating and finished the job in 1.5 hours. Of that 1 hour was excavating. My only plumber going forward for ANY job! read more

I came home from a week-long trip to find that I had a leak under my kitchen sink. I have so much dread when it comes to hiring someone to do work on my home. I own an 80 year-old home and have had at least five different plumbing companies come out to do various repairs or installations. Each time I felt like I was ripped off or taken advantage of. Seriously, you should not have to ask your plumber to do work that is up to code! That should be their standard. This time I searched yelp and read some company reviews. I gave C.H. Kruse a call and Jen told me she could send someone out that afternoon to take a look. Kirk came out to take a look, and within less than five minutes he was able to diagnose the problem, which was the faucet itself. I worked with Jen to schedule someone to come out the very next day to install a new kitchen faucet. A different guy, also named Kirk, came out today to do the installation. I am so impressed with both Kirks! Both of them are knowledgeable, friendly, polite, and trustworthy. Kirk #2 replaced the faucet quickly and without any issues. He assured me he would be out promptly should anything come up, and to not hesitate to call. After this experience I will not hesitate to call C.H. Kruse for any future plumbing needs. They have earned my confidence, respect, and appreciation. Thank you, Kirks 1 and 2! read more

We needed a plumber when our generalist contractor ended up unable to to install new shower fixtures during a bathroom remodel. I called the owner Ryan at the recommendation of an employee. I received excellent customer service from start to finish. Ryan personally came out and assessed the situation and was able to promptly locate missing parts for the project. A couple days later, an employee named Donny came out to the house and completed the job. He was fast, and kept the work area clean. Even though he needed to cut through a bedroom wall to access plumbing behind the shower, he did it in such a clean, professional way that patching the sheetrock after he was done was a piece of cake. I was surprised at how quickly he took care of the job! I highly recommend C.H. Kruse Plumbing for their excellent customer service and professional know-how! read more

Had a problem with an Omni filter attached to the water heater. (Previous owner's.) Was broken and leaking so I called Kruse's on a beautiful, sunny Sunday and got Ryan's voicemail. He called back within minutes to chat about the problem. Suggested I wait until the next day to save the money on a Sunday appt. A really friendly Kirk came out the next day and finished the job within an hour. Plumbing... easy and stressless. AND I met some really nice people to boot. read more

Our kitchen sink had been backing up off and on for a few months when suddenly the problem became more like, "Oh, the sink WON'T drain now." Great.... We chose CH Kruse because of all these awesome reviews on Yelp and we're now pleased to throw our positive review out there as well. The plumber showed up on time as schedule, quickly snaked the sink drain, found a gross ball of solid cooking oil (presumably from the previous owners, as I never dump oil down the sink) and just like that, my sink drains again! Prices were far, service was quick. Hopefully I won't HAVE to be a return customer, but if the situation arises, I will definitely be calling them again. Thumbs up. read more

What a great experience. I never like paying for things, but when i do at least the service could be great. that is what a felt about Peter. He was curious, knowledgeable, and precise. Thank you peter for easing my money separation anxiety BTW---- You are invited to Thanksgiving if you don't have plans. . read more
