Reviews of local pros in Bellevue, Washington
-
First response was "probably not, we are kinda busy" then the call dropped. I wouldn't let him in my home.
-
Excellent work. Reasonable price. Quick response. Exceeded expectations.
-
I would Never hire this guy as I called him as I'm a general contractor and asked him if he can give me a bid Annie's to busy any hung up on me very rude very disrespectful he says I doesn't need my work
-
Usually the best plumbers are busy and don't need marketing. Walt is knowledgable and affordable.
-
The owner showed up as promised got the job done fast and left. He replaced our old valves and faucet. Kept his number for our future repairs.
-
Just called him to repair sink. He said he was too busy to come today. I asked when he could come. He said he was pretty busy. I asked if he was just disinterested in doing the work - and he mumbled something and hung up on me,

Horrible! Rude! Would never call him again! He spent two minutes (literally)
at our house...said he couldn't fix our toilet....told us that would be $25
(and if I didn't pay him cash right then...he would add sales tax!) and walked out.....When I asked him a question...he said..."You weren't listening!"....The worst repairman we have ever had at our house! -
Rude! Also very strange way of attract customers, I called and try to schedule an appointment, he said he will call. He did and said I'm coming now...I said but I'm not at home, promised to call next day. Did not call next day. When I called again he said he is busy for two weeks now....
-
Very reasonable price and I was able to get a second day service. I definitely recommend Walt to anyone in need for a plumbing service.
-
What plumbing services should look like. Got a sink clogged, called Walt and got the problem fixed at a very reasonable price. Not like the ones you'd get from the 1800 companies. Recommended for such service.
-
Whenever I need drain cleaning I call Walt. I am glad to say I have recommended him often with good results. He knows what he is doing. Thanks Walt for being who you are.

Would never hire again. Very rude, remained on the phone the duration of the visit didn’t even bother to say hello or anything. When trying to talk to him he said to the person on the phone “I need to hang up these people are yapping in my ear” Did not remove his boots and tracked dirt through the entire house. I gave him a trash bag for the toilet so it would not drip on the floors, which he didn’t use and dripped toilet water all over our carpet and down the stairs. Doesn’t communicate well at all.
-
Walt is very knowledgeable. There was no scheduling BS and jacking up the rate after visit etc. From calling him first till the issue fixed and operational it was 1.5 hrs only can you believe. Will call him again in future. Hint: Just don't get in his way, ask unnecessary questions and waste time.

Hired Walt a year ago...now...you are going to read people's reviews that give him 1 star...and at first? I have to say I was probably in their same boat....initially when I called he sort of yelled into the phone and then hung up on me....but I called back!! He said he was on an assignment and would call back and again just disconnected the phone....ok....so I waited and about an hour later, when he got done with the job he called me from his truck....he is a one man shop doesn't have overhead and people answering his phones...so if you can handle a little gruffiness.....once he arrived....he was very personable. He's not a big talker--he wants to get to the job and get paid and get out. He saved us a LOT of money by talking us through some issues we were having and showing us some things to do then and to help rectify problems in the future....his rates were very reasonable and fair. He's older and busy and he probably really doesn't "need" the work....but you WANT HIM because he IS old and he knows his stuff (the plumbing business) and the ins and outs of what to do instead of just pulling something off and go getting a whole new thing...he knows how to repair and to locate where the issue actually is..... so, if you can put up with a little gruffiness on the phone? I highly recommend him. EXPECT that he will probably answer the phone/shout into it " I'm busy!" (because he's under a sink at my house) but his phone has your number in it....and he will call you back!! honest.

I hired Walt' Plumbing for three different plumbing issues in my home here in Bellevue . I am calling him today to schedule another repair due to my neighbors above me in my condo leaking water into my main bathroom.He comes in analizes the problem and gets to work on it fast. He's not going to talk your ear off he just gets down to business and moves on to his next call. He has does a great job and is honest with a good work ethic. Open 7 days a week usually makes it out same day or next day when you call. Honest and reasonable rates. I highly recommend Walt's Plumbing.

NOT RECOMMENDED: Beware of Walt's Plumbing : UNSAFE. The plumber (Walt?) showed up at my door without being properly masked. When I asked him to cover his nose, he responded that he then would not be able to see. When I insisted, he basically just walked out the door and got verbally abusive.
It's important for both of us to ensure our mutual safety. I did my part; he didn't do his.
Do NOT support this behavior on the part of vendors. STAY SAFE -
Been using Walt for about 25 years both personally and my husband who’s been in the real estate business has used him numerous times. The guy is a straight shooter, knows what he’s doing, reasonable rates. We have been very happy with Walt.
-
Walt showed up fast, and didn't charge us for an emergency on a Sunday. He got the job done and was on his way. No fuss, no muss and a reasonable rate, unlike almost every other plumber in the greater Seattle/Bellevue area. We highly recommend and plan on using Walt for any future plumbing needs.
-
I have had Walt out to do a number of fixes, toilets, re-circulating water pump, repair of the water heater, plugged toilets, etc. He is prompt, considerate, reasonably priced and you can count on him to fix your problem correctly.
-
Over the past couple years, Walt has unclogged toilets, drains, and pipes for me. He is quick and super-capable and very reasonably priced. Before finding him on NextDoor, I was using a retainer plumbing service, but they had a long lead time before they could come around. Forget it! Walt was there within a day.
-
I need to replace the kitchen faucet. Walt came on time and finished the job quickly. He tested it throughly, charged me probably half of what Fox plumbing.
Highly recommend him for the service, probably not as friendly as Fox plumbing. But fox plumbing always jack up the price while smiling at you.
