Wow! Bryan is amazing. My 100 year old home makes plumbing pretty challenging. Bryan was so knowledgeable and helpful. He is there when he says he will be, and keeps the work area neat and tidy. Hes also very kind. We couldnt have had better service and his work is stellar.

Review 2 (2024-09-30 - Rating: 5)
Responded quickly and very professional. The work required specialized parts to be ordered directly from the manufacturer. Brian was extremely knowledgeable about how to get this done and kept me updated through the process. I will definitely use this company again in the future.

12/14/23 Review: Once again, Bryan came to my rescue. The toilet was leaking and he came out right of way to fix the issue. He ran a snake down the toilet pipe and it cleared up the problem. As before, he was very professional and the price was very, very reasonable. Thank you so much, Bryan and wife for your consistent professionalism and kindness. Will be in contact soon to have you replace another toilet.I needed to have the toilet replaced, and with Bryan’s reasonable prices, I able to afford a replacing the faucet to bathroom sink.Bryan was very responsive and showed up on time. I liked that he asked questions and didn’t make assumptions. I had the option to go shop for a toilet and faucet, but this isn’t my thing. I told Bryan I’m looking for a product that is reasonable in price and functional, and asked if he could select these items for me. He did an awesome job and cleaned up afterwards, and hauled away the old stuff. I’m very, very happy with choice in toilet and faucet and Bryan’s work.Bryan is very professional, easy to talk to, and did an excellent job. I liked very much that he was a dog friendly person and didn’t mind my dog, Chester, hanging around or following him. Thank you, Bryan!If you’re looking for someone who has integrity and high work ethics, and is honest with price, hire Bryan. You will not be disappointed.

Bryan from Flush Without Fear did magnificent work on repairing my hose bib and and replacing three sink fixtures and a shower cartridge and brand new shower fixtures. All high quality work and no surprises or extra charges. In fact, they offered a military/veterans discount which was much appreciated. I highly recommend this company for reliable and reasonably priced plumbing work.

Brian and his team are absolutely fantastic!If finding an honest, punctual and professional plumber intimidates you like it did me, look no further.I purchased a home sight unseen and found that the PolyB pipe (which is now outlawed) was faulty. Brian was able to turn an extremely stressful situation into a manageable one with his expertise.If he can handle an entire home repipe I’m confident his team can handle anything else you can throw at them.He was very careful to only cut holes in the drywall he absolutely needed, not one hole went to waste.Can’t recommend this company more than I already have!

We had a burst water heater. They did an amazing job with us through the shut off and replacement. Transparent and friendly throughout the entire process, zero complaints. They were really nice with my dog too.

Second time needing help with an issue in my house and again, Brian was prompt, helpful and took care of things in a timely manner without breaking the bank. Brian is very professional and knowledgeable. Quick response to my questions. Very helpful and set my mind at ease. I will definitely be calling Flush Without Fear Plumbing again!

Review 8 (2024-06-13 - Rating: 5)
I had what I thought was a major plumbing issue - my toilet was backing up into my tub. They scheduled me quickly, communicated every step of the way and were super professional! They pulled my toilet, cleared the drain and I am back to normal for a reasonable price.

Review 9 (2023-10-31 - Rating: 5)
Bryan came out less than a week from calling. He was communicative and always on time. He was professional and gave an honest quote. Was able to do the job within a couple days on our schedule and did great work! Definitely recommend!!

Review 10 (2023-10-18 - Rating: 5)
Bryan did excellent work! Came Monday for our estimate and got it taken care of today in no time. The service provided was nothing short of awesome! He answered all of our questions and explained everything in a way we could understand, he was very professional and knowledgeable. 10/10 would recommend Bryan and his wife Megan to anyone with plumbing problems. Thank you!

Review 11 (2023-12-20 - Rating: 5)
I would definitely recommend!!! My shower plumbing had to be redone. Unfortunately I had another plumber come out a month ago and it was not fixed correctly. But Bryan was very knowledgeable. He went above and beyond to keep me informed along the way. The job was finished quickly with no mess and a great price. Now my shower is a dream!! I will be calling for all my plumbing needs!!

Review 12 (2023-11-11 - Rating: 5)
Bryan did a phenomenal job installing new water heaters, sink, and dishwasher. His work is excellent and he’s a pleasure to work with. Excellent communication and fantastic problem solving skills. This old house appreciated his perseverance. I honestly can’t say enough good things about working with Flush Without Fear. I will absolutely be calling him when we get to the bathroom renovation on this old house.

Review 13 (2023-11-08 - Rating: 5)
We had Bryan and his top notch apprentice from Flush Without Fear at our house for two full days taking care of a laundry list of plumbing issues in our new house. It is so refreshing to get to work with an actual local company (not a local company owned by a faceless conglomerate), and this company rocks.We are just overflowing with gratitude for their professionalism, high quality work, and attention to detail. There’s no job too draining for this team, we can’t recommend them enough! They flushed out our plumbing issues with ease and fair prices.

Review 14 (2024-12-17 - Rating: 5)
Great experience with this company. They truly want to help and dont cost an arm and a leg.

Review 15 (2024-01-11 - Rating: 5)
Bryan is great to work with! Fast and reliable! Great company to deal with! Edit to add new service (Drain pipe replacement/repair) and a big thank you to Brian. He is the kind of plumber who’s number you save and becomes “your plumber”.

Review 16 (2023-07-23 - Rating: 5)
Update: I called again about an entirely separate issue with our kitchen sink that I had been battling for a month on my own snaking the lines multiple times… again Brian fixed the issue within an hour, and guarantees his work for 90 days. Still 5 stars!Earlier 5 star review: Brian saved the day when we got home after a long work day to a leaking pipe in the basement in a challenging location to fix. He arrived within an hour and got us an estimate quickly, at a reasonable price given how last minute it was (and after 7pm). He explained everything, was very personable and relatable, and I can see why he gets 5 star reviews.

Review 17 (2022-08-13 - Rating: 5)
I highly recommend Flush without Fear. Bryan was professional, thorough, honest, quick, informative, and very pleasant to work with. He quickly identified the issue, the repair process went smoothly, and is doing great. We will definitely be using Flush without Fear for any future plumbing needs!** Returning customer. This time for a sump pump. I couldnt be happier with the service provided. Bryan even caught another issue that we will be having him fix as well. He works quickly, effectively, and always leaves the spot he worked on cleaner than when he came in to work on it. You definitely wont regret hiring Flush without Fear!

Review 18 (2023-06-29 - Rating: 5)
We have had to call flush without fear plumbing twice now (for separate issues). Each time Brian has been very responsive, coming out quickly to evaluate the issue. He was fast in getting our nonemergent issue (water pressure problems) scheduled and fixed, and he was able to fix our more emergent issue (broken pipe and flooded crawl space) the same day, and set us on a good path for finding help with the water damage.We have no complaints whatsoever, and highly recommend this company.

Review 19 (2023-09-05 - Rating: 5)
Brian was great, I was hesitant to call in for service to unclog my kitchen sink drain. I had been working on it my self for about 4 days and didnt want to admit defeat. I finally raised my white flag and gave Brian a call.He is definitely knowledgeable friendy and stands behind his work. In just about 1/2 hr. the drain was flowing freely. He was polit got the job done and was ingaged in friendly conversation with my son and me.Thanks Brian, for your services and sharing your knowledge with us.

Review 20 (2023-07-31 - Rating: 5)
Excellent Service. Found this company by chance when my tankless water heater stopped working on a Saturday night. Bryan came out Sunday morning, did a quick fix for a great rate. I’m beyond grateful. When we get around to replacing the heater, will be calling them again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Review 21 (2024-08-22 - Rating: 5)
Showed up on time, bid was fair and very reasonable. They went straight to work, did a great job! In and out. Highly recommended. My go to guys for plumbing! Thank you!

Review 22 (2021-10-04 - Rating: 5)
My instant hot water heater stopped working and my home warranty company contracted with Bryan to come out and take a look. Bryan was prompt, on time, and extremely knowledgeable and friendly. He worked directed with my warranty company to replace the instant hot water heater and communicated with me every step of the way. Bryan was always on time and would send me updates when he was on his way and when to expect him. I will definitely be using his services in the future when I have plumbing issues. Thanks, Bryan!

Review 23 (2024-04-27 - Rating: 5)
Bryan phoned to say when he would arrive. He was on time, efficient and considerate. He made sure that old stains were removed and tidied up wonderfully.

Review 24 (2022-01-24 - Rating: 5)
Bryan was wonderful! He took my frantic phone call after we had accidentally hit the water main, and calmed me down. He came out promptly at the promised time, fixed the issue and upgraded the angle stops for our new dishwasher and sink. He was very nice and we will definitely use him again in the future!!

Review 25 (2023-08-15 - Rating: 5)
I couldnt be happier with the service we had from Flush Without Fear. He was right on time for the appointment (when does that happen nowadays), very professional and personable, and got right to the job at hand. He had the job done in no time and our leaky pipe was fixed. I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants quality work done at a fair price.

Review 26 (2022-08-26 - Rating: 5)
Best experience Ive ever had with a plumbing company. Would recommend trying this company out. Thoughtful and very professional, will go above and beyond to put your mind at ease. When my water heater quit working I thought my only option was to replace it. After Brian assessed my water heater he went over my options taking the time to explain and answer all my questions. I opted for having the tank fixed vs replaced. Brian did an awesome job and I am beyond thankful!!

Review 27 (2022-08-17 - Rating: 5)
Brian did an excellent job on reworking our out-dated twisted leaking pipes under our kitchen sink. I like the easy and friendly communications, the free estimate, and quick repair. We are very happy with our new under the sink pipes. Thank you, Brian.

Brian was professional and experienced. I had other businesses come out for estimates but Brian was spot in with what needed to be done. No up selling. Just straight to what needed to be done. Thank you Brian!!

Review 31 (2023-02-05 - Rating: 5)
I had a leaking toilet tank and wanted to install a bidet attachment. The company gave me an honest estimate over the phone so I knew what to expect. Many other plumbers charge $99 just to give an estimate. Brian was on time, prepared with the necessary parts, and completed the job quickly. Additionally there was a 6 month warranty for the service. I would trust them next time I need plumbing help.

Review 32 (2024-01-12 - Rating: 5)

Brian was willing to come on a holiday weekend outside of his availability to help fix a water heater valve leak. He was prompt, responsive, courteous and got the job done ✅ FAST! Would highly recommend Brian for all your plumbing work.

Review 35 (2022-04-06 - Rating: 5)
We had toilets over flowing and water draining slowly in the sinks. I have seen this companys name on Facebook community pages. I actually called two other companies but no one answered and I still havent received a call back from those two companies and the job is done. Brian said he could get to me between 12 and 2 but actually came at 11:30! He was extremely personable and gave me a quote before starting the work. He was done timely and the cost was very reasonable for a same day appointment. Im so glad that I wont ever have to shop around for another plumber. He has gained a customer for life. Thank you Brian!!

I called this company and they came out the next day.Brian, the technician, Sent me a text to let me know that he was on his way. He arrived at the agreed upon time. He used all PPE.

If would highly recommend there services.

Review 38 (2021-11-23 - Rating: 5)
Brian was amazing. I was given the run around by five other people who took months with no resolution. Bryan fixed everything within a week and it took that long only because of the insurance company. I would hire him again in a heartbeat.

Review 39 (2023-04-24 - Rating: 5)

Updated 5/16/2024Another plumbing emergency, and Bryan came through again. He was on time and professional. He also gave me a very fair price and fixed my seriously clogged sink immediately. I thought it would be a lot worse. He also gave me honest advice about my faucet. Everything is running better than it ever has.This plumber is a real find. Honest, dependable and good at what he does. I love his worksmanship and attitude. 10 stars all the way.Oh my freaking God, this plumber is an absolute find. He came out to give me a free quote the next day, and came in so far below the others I was like, Please!! Take my money. His reviews were so good (why he made my final list) I was kind of iffy that they were real, but they absolutely are. He was on time, super professional (his apprentice too!) and very clean. He knew what he was doing and explained everything. He also had good personality, which was a real plus. I have hot water again!!! Plus he threw in a one year personal warranty in case anything went wrong, 24/7 he guarantees to fix it. He is now my go-to plumber and I will recommend him without reservations to anyone looking for a solid plumber, especially if they live out in South Pierce. To say Im happy is an understatement. I would give this guy ten stars if I could.
