Gene's Plumbing handles burst pipe repair across West Richland and the surrounding area — licensed, insured and available for emergencies.
Frozen pipes in West Richland split at the weak point, usually in an exterior wall, a crawlspace or over an unheated garage. The repair includes insulating that run so it does not repeat.
Every house handles burst pipe repair a little differently depending on its age, and West Richland has plenty of both old and new. The fitting, the pipe material and the way the last plumber left it all change what the right repair is.
That is why the West Richland truck carries parts for more than one era of plumbing. The burst pipe repair job gets finished on the first visit wherever it can be, because a second trip costs you a day and costs us the trust.
What happens from the first call to the final test.
A plumber asks the questions on the phone that narrow it down, so the right parts and the right machine are already on the truck when it arrives.
A gauge goes on the system, a camera goes down the line, or the meter gets checked with everything off — whichever actually answers the question. Nobody quotes a repair on a guess.
If there is a cheaper option that will actually hold, you hear about it. If the cheap option is a patch that fails in six months, you hear that too.
Before the truck goes you see it working — the drain running, the pressure holding, the pit cycling — not just a thumbs up from the driveway.
Common questions, answered plainly.

Real reviews from real service calls.
"Water heater let go on a Sunday morning and flooded half the basement. Had someone here inside two hours, new tank in by afternoon, and he hauled the old one off. Price was what he said on the phone."
"Whole house was on galvanized from the fifties. They repiped in PEX one bathroom at a time so we were never without water overnight. Drywall patches were cut clean and easy to fix."
"Solid water heater install. Price fair, work clean. Would have liked a little more warning on the arrival time, but the job itself was right."
