I would give a zero if possible. This company showed up on the job when needed in an emergency I will give them credit for that. BUT, quoted $6500 flat rate to unclog a water service. Yes, you read that right, $6500. Didn't even utilize vaseline. He spent two hours and 15 minutes total on site. Refused to itemize bill, and non negotiable on the flat rate. DO NOT use this company in an emergency, or at all for that matter. read more

Wow ! Cost us $1200 to reset a toilet. Stay very very far away from these guys. 1/2 hour to complete the job. Called to talk to owner manager about the bill and he thought the bill was fair and no adjustments were given. Second toilet had a leak between bowl and tank. Plumber said he fixed it. This morning after use the toilet had water around it's base. STILL LEAKING I made the mistake of not checking yelp reviews! Apparently I am not the first person this business has over charged. read more

Discovered that our Gas Furnace was not working. Had Foss Heating fix it. It did not work because of the shoddy work done by Full Speed Plumbing. When installing the water heater they destroyed the electric connection to the Furnace. This cost us an additional $579 to fix. Whatever you do, do not do business with these hacks. read more

Steer clear. Scam! They'll charge you a fee to provide you with a ridiculously overpriced usurious estimate of work. That's how these guys make their money - by charging $99 estimate fees, with the odd desperate homeowner actually paying for their ludicrously overpriced services. Any estimate you will get from these guys is about 8 to 6 times what it should cost. That's pretty much how the scam works. I'm two days into a phone complaint with them that they have not responded to so I thought I would take it to the review world, where they seem to be much more responsive. read more

Be careful they were quick to arrive. But job not completed, if the sewer line was hydrogenated all roots would be gone but many remained. Very over priced. And job not well done. Had to have another plumber out to complete job correctly. Not sure if poor work and high price was company or individual plumber. Would not recommend felt i was at their mercy in the situation. read more

HORRIBLE company but loved the plumber. Recently paid over $6000. for new instant hot water tank which averages about 2k . 10 days earlierWas also charged $921 to stop water leak which didn't work before installing the new tank!! Huge RIP OFF company!!! read more

BEWARE. No complaints with the work, but the price was an outrage. This company should be ashamed! See attached photo, which speaks for itself. A section of copper water line was replaced with plastic and a new faucet attached. Total time spent was about 90 minutes. Cost was $2035. read more

Not happy with the price but we had to get our in-home flooding resolved the correct way. Anthony came out on time, kept me informed along the way, and offered creative ways to solve our stopped PVC exit to the sewer system. He worked hard throughout the day without a break. I am very happy and assured that the work was done professionally. I see mixed reviews here and I don't understand how anyone could rate Full Speed poorly. I would recommend them to anyone. read more

Had a leaking water main that needed replacing. They responded promptly and scheduled a quote for a $125 fee. I should have saved my money as their quote was $55,000 and the three other quotes I received were all in the $10-$15,000 range. Literally just more $$$ down the drain. read more

Horribly overcharged me for replacing a kitchen faucet. $1550 for a $200 Home Depot faucet. Also advised me to replace 2 angle stops along with this, which didn't need replacing, adding on another $1375 for a total of $2700, after negotiating the original quote over $3,000! They'll start out quoting you high, with the hopes that you won't negotiate a lower price. Very unprofessional and uncomfortable experience overall. I called the office later to express my disappointment with the charges, and the office person said I 'll forward this on to a manager, possibly getting back to me within " 24-48" hours...which is b.s. and obviously trying to avoid the complaint. Waited a week for a call, no call back of course. So I called them back to complain again! Finally got some guy to call back, expressed my disappointment again about the charges. He said, "everything is a flat rate" and that's what it is regardless...Even replacing a faucet that takes roughly 15-20 minutes is on a "flat rate" of $1500, no hourly rates...I find their ethics outrageous. This company is very deceiving and is a rip off! Do NOT hire unless you're stupid or really rich. I made the mistake of not looking up their Yelp reviews initially. Based on their other reviews, I obviously wouldn't have hired them. They are based out of Mt. Vernon read more

Working with Full Speed was an awful experience. They overcharged incredibly, but did poor quality work that we had to hire a different plumber to fix. Quotes from multiple other plumbers were less than half the cost, and in the process of getting other quotes we found out that the technician lied about the issue at hand, the scope of the project, and the materials and tools needed to complete it. No one should hire them under any circumstances. read more

Full Speed Plumbing estimates are 4.6 - 4.8 x as high as the competition. They do not provide ranges on the phone because unforseen problems. However, if "normal" job price will be 4-5x market. They are unscrupulous. Luke claims 96% conversion ratio. Is that only for senior women who do not know the price of repairs? I scheduled an appointment for my leaking outdoor faucet. I asked for a phone estimate and Amanda explained they charge market and don't provide the estimate on phone because the problem could be more involved. So, I had them come out at their next available day. At the date of estimate Dec 2, 2022, I was quoted $1107.50 + tax, or $1204.96 to replace the faucet. The installation of a whirlpool tub was quoted at $8611.88 + tax and installing hardware was quoted at $3756.88+ tax. Prior to this estimate I already had an estimate for $2800 including replacing green board which was previously removed. Luke the estimator/ technician / licensed plumber explained this was on the higher end but his work was superior to the competition and he is also better looking. Luke required and estimate fee of $69.99 + tax. Although the estimate was outrageous, I paid the $76.12 estimate fee. When I signed for the credit card charge, he said first did not work, so I resigned only to receive email stating satisfactory performance. I did not kn ow I signed that until I received the invoice. On Dec 4, 2022, another Plumber performed the faucet replacement for $270 including tax and a 10% senior discount. The going rate is anywhere between $200 - $300. Full Speed Luke's estimate of $1204.96 was over 4.46 as high as Prodigy's actual charge of $270. Prodigy stated there was nothing out of the ordinary on this job. My complaints are Full Speed Plumbing attempted to charge 4.46x and 4.8x as much for the whirlpool tub installation. I am a senior citizen and this is elder abuse. Full Speed: Faucet job including tax $1204.96. Prodigy Plumbing including tax $270.00 Full speed charged 4.46 as much as Prodigy. Both are licensed plumbers. The bathtub was estimated at $2800 including tax by a General Contractor. The bath tub was estimated by Full Speed at $3756.88+$8611.88 + 8.8% tax, equaling $12368.76 + 8.8% tax = $13,457.21. Full Speed Plumbing estimated 4.8 x as expensive as a general contractor who was to perform more work. I spoke with the office and office manager about the unfair price gouging. However Full Speed , claimed I was committing blackmail if I posted a negative review because unhappy with outrageous estimate. That is not blackmail. Also, Full Speed wrote on estimate $0 for estimate. However, they charged separately $76.12 for the estimate. read more

I had a horrible experience with Full Speed Plumbing today. The technician showed up 2 hours late. He gave me a quote for over $2500, before tax, to unclog a sewer line. I am no plumbing expert, but google says "The national average cost to unclog a main sewer line is between $350 and $650, with most people paying around $475 to clean a mid-sized clog by hydro jetting the main sewer pipe between a house and municipal main line." So, Full Speed Plumbing tried to charge me five times the national average. I told the tech I would not pay him $2500 for the service. He charged me $110 for the inspection and then left. I rented a drain snake from Home Depot for $60 and unclogged the sewer in 20 minutes. Please keep in mind about this company. read more

I was very pleased with the in office Staff. Very helpful, they're so fast at getting techs out to help the community!

Responsive and good quality work BUT, as others have said, their pricing is outrageous. I recently had Full Speed address an issue with my kitchen plumbing. The work took about 1.5 hours using less than $20.00 in parts. The final bill was over $2000. I agreed to the work because the technician was at our home and I wanted the issue resolved. In hindsight, after getting the estimate, I should have turned the technician away and gotten other quotes. I won't be using Full Speed again and would encourage others to get competitive bids before choosing this company. read more

Strongly recommend you avoid calling these people, as close to a scam as I've encountered. Had a slow draining kitchen sink. They charged $70 to show up. Three quotes...$740 to snake the pipe, $2000 to use a power-washer hose and $4000+ to "fix" it by tearing apart the walls. Really, for a slow draining sink? Thank goodness we got off with just a $70 charge to get this person out of our house. Call someone, anyone else. read more

Anyone who charges a 90 year-old woman $1,400 to replace a kitchen faucet should hang his head in shame. The work seems okay, but the price was ridiculous. read more

Firstly, do not bother calling this company, they will price gouge to the fullest extent, to a point that is so incredibly unreasonable, you will just laugh. I had a propane gas leak at a union joint, located in an easy spot to repair; on an outside wall. $4,100. yeah, $4,100. I almost choked, I mean this is $20 part, which they were charging $800 for. plus 2.5 hours of work. So, they're charging over $1,000 per hour for labor, and 40x for the part. average cost to repair a leaking gas line in an easy to access area is quoted at about $400, nationally. 10x the national average; welcome to greedy capitalism. my recommendation? learn to do it yourself and save $4,000. they wanted me to sign something saying i essentially refused to pay the service fee of $69. what the what?! unprofessional at best, thieves at worst. go somewhere else. read more

I called them to move a vanity to the opposite side of the bathroom and put the Jacuzzi on the other side. They charged me $76 for the bid. The bid was over $15,000. Don't pay the estimate fee, or sign for it. They will gouge you! The next bid was $2500 for the same work, that is what other contractors told me the plumbing should cost. I explained that the technician told me it would be a day and a half of work. That means $1000 per hour. The gal said "oh no we don't charge that much we quote the job, not by the hour". I was also told "good luck finding someone else that will start now. I guess you can do what ever you want in life if you are willing to pay the price. The price for you Full Speed Plumbing, is people calling you out! I I read more

Called and asked for a quote and they said only technician could provide one and that them coming out would be $77.00 for an evaluation. The technician was professional and polite but their cost for a replacement of a garage disposal with it provided was over $700. I said I would pass and payed the $77.00 but it is a known cost by the company so they avoided providing the estimate. The next plumber for the service was under $300. read more

Full speedy said they could diagnose my plumbing for $99. Was told my main was full and there was a blockage. estimate to clear was $3600. when I was hesitant, he said "let me call my boss and see if we can offer you a discount". Came back with $2900. I approved because I was a few days from a project and I needed the blockage cleared. He said "I can't guarantee I can clear it, but I've not failed yet". 1 hour later, the blockage was cleared. I should have read the reviews first but I was desperate in the moment. A week later my contractor says there is a sewage leak. I've had a contractors under my house and never had a leak. im confident the plumber on this job compromised my pipe. Not only did I pay a proposterous amount for an hour of labor but it resulted in a bigger issue. when the contractor said who did the work, I said "speedy". They said "I hope it wasn't speedy plumbing". Honestly I was embarrassed to say it was. Be aware!! read more

I am giving 1 star because of the cost. Phenomenal. We just had a sink 'hooked' back up - we had all the supplies yet it cost almost 3k. Out of ignorance I paid it but doing my research after I found I was way over charged. They were able to come out right away - that was good and the plumber seemed nice enough and experienced. The cost though... read more

The customer service provided by Sierra and Rebecca from the beginning was above and beyond what I expected. The main line at my house had a break in it. I assume it was because of my brother-in-law blowing up the toilet. The technician, Jake came to my home diagnosed the issue, started work and completed the job same day. Super convenient and the entire process was easy. The cost was less than what I expected and was worth it. I highly recommend Full Speed to anyone! read more

Blatant robbery. Shocking. I've had this work done numerous work done many times over the years. They won't provide an itemized estimate. "We just put it all together." So $2,295, WITH a 20% discount to unclog a sewer line and camera it. No choice! It had to be done plus I would have had to pay him $199 plus tax just to have him show up. He did a thorough job (with my supervision.) Second time down with the camera because he forgot to show me the first time, this time he found some root intrusion 4 feet from the clean out. He cleared that by changing the tip on the jet auger. I asked him how much to replace just that small section of pipe, $4,500 to $5000. I did some research. I'm using sewer pipe root killer. Environmentally safe. And they canceled numerous times during the very time they were supposed to show up. read more

Buyer beware! The business model is commission-based and the plumbers can set the price. Embarrassed to say we paid $3k for a job that took 4 hours. He gave us the bid, explained the total cost, required 1/2 of the money up front. All perfectly legit EXCEPT that it was very fast, high pressure, we were in a bind, and we got railroaded. Owner answered our call and explained their business model. Done. No acknowledgement of the disproportionate price. So there you go - please learn from our lesson!! read more

Exorbitant pricing! Initial diagnostic: (camera/jetting) 1 hour $1,562.03. Repair: cut 2x2 section asphalt, dug 1.5 ft down, replace cleanout pipe and applied fernco: 2 hours $4,596.67. A total price of $6,158.70 which didn't include replacing the asphalt. The invoice didn't show a breakdown of labor and material. Material: 10ft 4inch sewer pipe at Home Depot is $18 (they only install 2ft) 4 inch tee with cleanout also $18, and the Fernco 4x4 mechanical flexible coupling is $8.96 so parts were approximately $50 which leaves $4,546.67 for the labor. Get a second bid before using these guys! read more

I had a pump go out on my radiant floor heating. They came out, and installed the wrong pump. Week later, they come and install the right pump, but wired the thermostat incorrectly, and blew out the thermostate. Another call, another visit. It was spring, they said everything was working. 6 months later, turn on the system, no heat. Call them again, they come out and said the water heater was off. They were the last to work on the system and this was a lie because it was on and set to 110. 2 days later, still no heat. Call another plumber, they did not bleed the lines to remove the air after install. So, after 3700, 7 visits i have to pay another plumber to fix thier incompetence. They have NO IDEA what they are doing. Expensive and incompetent. Under no circumstances should you use this company. Trying to get them to pay for the other plumber, but no manager on site. "One will call you within 24 hours" dont use them or you will be sorry you did. read more

After a number of reschedules (2 or 3) the tech showed up, quoted a price close to $2000 for a sink clog (2nd opinion handled this issue and another issue not included in that estimate for ~$300) and was generally rude about my hesitation to sign off on the crazy estimate after insisting that clearing a kitchen sink drain from anyone would cost that much. The estimate, interaction, and general process were all unsatisfactory to me. In the end was happy I paid the hundred dollar trip fee rather than choosing to use their service. read more

We had a terrible experience with Full Speed Plumbing. We called them out to repair a gas tankless hot water heater. We had no hot water, and it was during the ice storm in December. The estimate to thaw out a condensation line which was frozen up on the water heater was over $2,000. The technician said this might not fix the problem, and, of course, the work was not guaranteed. He could, however, replace the hot water heater for $16,000. With discounts and a revision of the original estimate, we ended up paying a little under $13,000. We were shocked at the costs. I asked the technician if their prices were comparable to other plumbing companies as I was considering getting more bids. He stated that their pricing was competitive with other plumbing companies. He then stated that other plumbing companies he knew were about two weeks out on their work. Christmas was 2 days away, and I thought we would be without hot water with family coming for the holiday. He said they could do the work the next day, but I would have to pay one-half down and the other half upon completion. We are a retired couple on a fixed income so this was a huge expenditure which I felt I was talked into. The company does not break down their estimates. The cost of the tankless hot water heater which we had installed is just under $2,000. So, we ended up paying over $10,000 for parts and labor. After some research, the average installation cost for a tankless hot water heater which includes the unit, parts, and labor is between $850 and $4,400. I am a very thrifty person so I am sick about being talked into this overpriced installation. I wrote a complaint letter to the company but received no response. I am sorry I used this company and did not get additional bids for the job. read more

Our fence installers cut the water line from the street to our house, and their fix started leaking two days later. I called a couple of places to get someone out to the house, and Full Speed Plumbing sent Anthony within an hour of calling! He took care of the problem quickly and was great to work with. He explained things very clearly and did a great job! read more

We had a very bad experience with this company. They over charged us by an extreme amount. My tenets said they were at the rental house for 20 mins, 45 mins total because he had to run to the hardware store in town. Which is a few mins down the street. The part was around $70 I was charged $376. So, basically 300 dollars for a 20 min job. You may want to save yourself some money and go elsewhere. I feel like because we weren't there they felt they could rip us off. Then after I called they said they could take 18 dollars off for the part. Then when I got the bill in the mail they never took that off. I am giving them one star because the problem is fixed. read more

I called for some leak repairs under my home after a flood event. The crew that is replacing the insulation and heating ducts noted some small leaks and a cracked soil pipe. The estimate I was given was $40,000 for a complete repiping. $25000 to fix the small leaks. I paid the $76 estimate fee.Hey if they didn't the job ok. Other companies bid $ 1850 Nice try for a rip off . I would never recomend this company. last time I used them they had to return to fix a gas leak on a hot water heater they installed. read more

I am a 74 year old woman who had our kitchen counters replaced yeterday. We had Full Speed Plumbing come out the day before the countertop crew was here. All they had to do was take out the sink. We were charged $1800 for that. I called around the next morning and found we should have been charged $300 at the most. Yes I signed for it because we were being held hostage, as the crew was going to be here the next day. I tried to talk to someone from their corporation and was told, well you signed for it. DO NOT USE FULL SPEED PLUMBING!!! read more

My kiddo had flushed something down the toilet that clogged it really bad. I called around and Anacortes Plumbing was one of the only companies to call me back right away. The lady was super nice on the phone and got me on the schedule a few days out, but said they would have someone in my area that would call me if they could fit me in sooner. I was thrilled when I got a call a couple hours later that same day from the plumber who happened to be in my neighborhood already. He was able to come by that day and fix the problem. Very fast and friendly service. The price was a little higher than I was hoping, but still fair. Overall, I was so thankful that they could come out the same day and they got the job done! read more

I'm a single mom with three jobs. I worked overtime for weeks to afford help with a kitchen sink that hasn't drained for over a month. My children and I have been doing dishes in a kid's pool in the yard. After explaining all this to Full Speed Plumbing they said they'd be out the next morning to help. I took time off work and waited over four hours, no call, no text. After I finally called and was told, "Oh yeah, we were about to call you." They said I'd have to wait till Monday, they got busy. Don't waste your time or money on these guys. They aren't worth it, and clearly their customers aren't worth it to them. read more

It is hard to tell the difference between an outright scam and just an over-priced service. I called Full Speed plumbing after getting a super-high quote from another plumber for doing a simple 15' snake run to unclog my toilet. I asked for the general price ranges for the services they provided so I least knew the least possible price I could get expect. They would not say anything, insisting that the plumber had to visit and a non-refundable charge would be charged if I did not accept the service options. I reluctantly agreed and they sent a serviceman over. He was polite and professional, but without doing ANY research other than what I could have said over the phone, gave me a $2400 + $800 quote to water-jet the clog and ensure it was clear with a camera. This was almost triple what the previous plumber had quoted. I said that was overkill, and he said that is the only service they offered and the minimum service he would offer. I said there was no way I would pay that. He then took my check for the service fee left. By all accounts, I could get an old van, paint a plumber logo and set myself up on Google and go around taking service quote fees while quoting ridiculous fees no one would ever accept pocketing the service fee any never doing any work. After he left I went Sebo's DIY and rented a rooter for $35 and did it myself in 45 minutes. read more
