Our Plumbing Process
Our Plumbing Process: Trusted by Homeowners Across Snohomish County
At Stars & Stripes Plumbing, we know that plumbing work can feel stressful — especially when you don’t know what to expect. That’s why we’ve developed a transparent, disciplined approach to every service call. From the moment you reach out to the final walk‑through and reporting, we keep communication clear, respectful, and focused on your priorities.
Here’s a step‑by‑step look at what it’s like to have Stars & Stripes Plumbing in your home.
01 | Initial Contact & Customer Conversation
When you contact us — by phone or online — we begin with a thoughtful, human conversation.
What we ask & listen for:
- What prompted your call?
- Are you looking for a same‑day fix or exploring options?
- When was the last time a licensed plumber inspected your system?
These questions help us understand your needs and shape how we’ll serve you — without pressure.
02 | On‑Site Standard Plumbing Inspection
Before jumping into any repair, we perform a standard home plumbing inspection at every job.
What we check (standard, at no extra cost):
- Main water shut‑off valve
- Water pressure
- Water heater
- Crawl space access (if present)
We look at these key areas because they are common places where hidden issues first appear. Our goal is to ensure your plumbing system is safe and functioning properly — not just fix the one thing you called about
03 | Review & Explanation of Findings
Once we complete the inspection, we share what we found with you — no surprises, no jargon.
How it works:
- We show pictures (if applicable)
- Explain what’s going on
- Tell you why it matters
This step is about education and clarity — giving you the full picture before any pricing or options are presented.
04 | Options Presentation
(You Choose What Works Best)
After explaining the situation, we present 3–4 options tailored to your needs and budget.
Each option includes:
- Recommended action
- Alternative solutions
- Long‑term peace‑of‑mind suggestions
You decide what’s best — we never move forward without your approval.
05 | Professional Service Execution
Once you choose an option:
We show up prepared and respectful of your home, including:
- Shoe covers and drop cloths
- Clean, organized workspace
- Professional workmanship with military‑style precision
We keep you informed throughout the process until the work is complete.
06 | Walk‑Through & Job Reporting
When the work is finished, we don’t leave quietly — we walk you through:
- What was done
- How it was done
- Why it matters
Then we send a detailed digital report to your email or phone that includes:
- Before/after photos
- Technician notes
- Any remaining estimates (for future planning)
This ensures you always have a clear record of the work done on your home.
07 | Customer Feedback & Review Invitation
Before we go, we ask one simple question:
How did we do?
If you feel we delivered excellent service, we make it easy for you to leave a review on‑site with a QR code or link. Your feedback helps other homeowners know what to expect and helps us keep improving.
What Makes Our Process Different
Unlike many plumbing companies that use high‑pressure sales tactics or give you a list of repairs without explanation, Stars & Stripes Plumbing focuses on:
Our mission is simple: leave your system safe, working well, and you feeling informed and confident.
