Akers Outdoor Plumbing

Just wanted to give a shout out for Akers. My neighbor's 100 year old sewer pipe that runs through our yard became clogged from roots. My neighbor is retired and on a limited income. When Ryan from Akers learned that there would be an additional cost of hiring another contractor to run a high power hose to clean out the pipes, the company covered the extra charges so my neighbor wouldn't have to. They were polite, respectful, and completed their work within 3 business days, which was amazing because they had to hand dig the 6' hole because of its awkward location in my yard. They get a 5 star rating from me!

Andy and the crew did a great job, replaced the old service line from the meter to the house. Had to go under the driveway too.
As soon as we approved the bid, they were out the next day and water was back on that afternoon.
Would definitely recommend to anyone who asks!

I had a leak in an old water line that was about 200 ft through brush and trees. We decided to replace the line. Andy and his crew knew exactly what to do and most importantly had the equipment to do it. They were very respectful, flexible and put everything back even better than it was. Not one complaint and only compliments. Would use them again if ever needed. It was a stress-free job.

We discovered a slow leak in the water line at a rental house when we got a copy of the tenants' water bill at 4x the normal use. After some investigation we determined that the break was somewhere between the meter and the house but it was impossible to figure out where. The lot between house and street has quite a slope and is fully landscaped, so trenching for a new line would have been messy and disruptive and would have had to figure out navigating the almost 5 foot high retaining wall next to the sidewalk. Andy came out to look, was clearly knowledgeable and said they could replace the line without trenching. The estimate from Akers was about the same as another estimate we had received, but once we saw that we knew immediately that we would choose Akers. They were so responsive and squeezed in our repair very quickly. The guys who did the job were on-time and pleasant and the whole thing took only a few hours. During the whole process, Traci was very helpful and very easy to work with. We highly recommend Akers Outdoor Plumbing!

Yelp led me to Akers Plumbing and thank goodness! We had a huge water leak somewhere from our house to the water meter; the $2K+ water bill and spinning water meter told us that. I called a couple of services, but Akers Plumbing was willing to come out sooner, realizing we needed help pronto. I cannot give a more glowing review of this company. They were prompt, courteous, respectful, friendly, communicative and demonstrated high standards. Andy led an awesome team of folks who were reliable, professional, and just lovely people. I even got a little education re: outdoor plumbing. They bypassed the leak right away so we weren't gushing water. We ended up replacing the piping to the meter as we had had a prior leak. The owner, Andy, is a consummate gentleman with high standards for his work. Can you believe he even went above and beyond to help correct prior contractor's work gratis in addition to the quoted job? Traci was always available on the office end and even worked to provide a quote Sunday night for work Monday. You cannot go wrong with Akers Plumbing. I felt so lucky to find them. True Quality!

I can't imagine being happier with the work Akers provided. The small pond I found in my back yard indicated that I had a slow leak that needed prompt attention. Unfortunately, I had just started a Hawaiian vacation. Andy agreed to check it out and came through promptly with a bid to replace my aging pipe. As soon as I came home, I check out a few other companies, but none were as responsive nor as thorough as Akers. Ryan, the foreman was friendly and professional and got the work done in just over half a day. Moreover, Andy reduced my bill by $800 due to work/materials that weren't needed! The yard looks better than it did before the work began. I can't recommend Akers enough!

I am incredibly happy with the work that Andy and his crew did with installing a new waterline. For background, I went on vacation for a few days and came back to discover water coming out from underneath my driveway. I called four plumbing companies for a bid. Of the four, Andy was by far the most thorough in examining the problem and explaining his solution. One of the tools he has (which the other companies didn't), is a horizontally drilling tool, which can dig underneath the driveway. Meaning, he doesn't have to jack hammer the driveway to lay down the pipe, so it's a lot cleaner and doesn't require patching up the driveway. He was also the only one that checked the crawl space to see how the new line would be going into the house. I decided to go with Andy, and I couldn't be more satisfied.

His team showed up within a few days and worked quickly to get my water running again. I am especially appreciative to Andy and his crew, because they adjusted their schedule so that they could get to the water leak (which was only getting bigger by each day) sooner. His crew was experienced and friendly (they've been working together for a while, which is a great sign). After the city inspector came and gave it a thumbs up, his crew cleaned up and left everything in even better shape than it was before. They even washed the dirt off the sidewalk. Also, I should mention that they were very responsive in communication (thanks, Traci). I would absolutely recommend Akers Outdoor Plumbing! They're professional, knowledgeable, honest, and just good people.

We had a leak in the waterline from the house to the meter and after receiving three bids we couldn't recommend Akers Outdoor Plumbing more highly. They are by far the most experienced, knowledgeable, professional and have a high level of attention to detail using the best equipment and materials for your money. They are easy to work with and the whole team is efficient and hardworking.

We never got to the service portion...
Poor experience with getting estimate:
Contacted Akers, spoke with Traci. Explained in detail the situation and ask for someone to come over to provide an estimate (need to run a new supply line pex 1"" from pigtail to the house).
The morning of the appointment received a call from Traci asking to reschedule morning to later afternoon. I agreed.
No one came in the agreed time slot so had to call Traci twice. 2nd time she answered and sad that someone stopped by already and they didn't think it was safe(???) because the trench for the line was already dug up.
I had 3 other reputable local outdoor plumbing companies come and give me estimates and not one said anything about the trench (was dug up to spec). Having the trench in place saves $1500-$2000.
Traci's answer was: ""That's not how we work..."" Not sure what that supposed to mean. It seems they would like to charge me extra $1500-$2000 for digging a trench which only took me 3-4 hours to do myself or $50-$100 if you hire a high-school teenager to do.
Was unpleasantly surprised with the way they handled this.
P.S. i had utilities companies 6 months ago mark all the lines when I had sewer pipes replaced around the same area. So again, safety argument is just bogus...

Great experience all around. I was told by a plumber that I probably had an external leak either under my house or from the main line, based on his recommendation I called another company who were going to charge upwards of $300 just to find the leak ""if they could."" On second thought I called Akers and they had someone out the next afternoon, explained to me what the problem was, how they would fix it and all the basics since water lines and plumbing is not my forte. Andy was really helpful and educated me and at this point I owed nothing. Mind you this is where the other company would have charged me and gone no further as their business is only detection. Got a quote from Andy a couple days later and within another day the job was done, again the guys on site explained what they did, why and what they found. On top of the guys on site, Traci communicated everything with me along the way and made the whole process super easy. Great company all around!
