Company Overview

We operate around the clock as a plumbing service specializing in residential and commercial plumbing along with drain maintenance, repairing sewer systems, replacing sewer lines, and trenchless technology for sewer lining. We also offer bursting pipes, pull-in-place pipe lining, installing tankless water heaters, water heater replacements, subsurface utility services, repairing main plumbing lines, and hydro jetting. Additionally, we conduct camera scope inspections for sewers and provide no-cost estimates for sewer services. Our team is ready for emergency plumbing needs. Major sewer line issues can arise from tree roots and broken pipes, and our experienced utility specialists will resolve the issue. A break in the water main can significantly raise your water costs, and sometimes, just a repair is necessary, saving you hundreds each month. We are a bonded and licensed side sewer contractor with licensed plumbing professionals who can tackle any plumbing problem, from water heater issues to mainline sewer repairs in high-traffic areas. Toilet, shower, laundry, and kitchen sink clogs are no trouble for us, and our drain cleaning team can create a maintenance routine to prevent expensive repairs within a workable budget. Available 24/7, we offer repairs for bathtubs and showers, drain setup, cleaning drains, repairing water heaters, installing water heaters, services for garbage disposals, and sewer maintenance.

We started as a family-owned general contracting business focused on house renovations and roofing. Owned by Aaron Flint, who grew up in the Tacoma and Seattle area, we evolved from a solo general contractor into a plumbing and sewer service provider. With our commitment to customer service and integrity guiding us, we strive to ensure every customer is satisfied regardless of project size. Jafco is now a leader in trenchless sewer repair and plumbing.

Andrew started his journey in plumbing and excavation ten years back as an apprentice, advancing through various roles and mastering each position, which helps him in his leadership position today. Over the years, Andrew has learned that treating employees with respect leads to great customer service, which is his main focus.

Jafco's team was very responsive and polite when scheduling. We were able to have someone come out within a day, which was crucial for a shower issue. Their staff worked quickly to resolve a shower leak and replaced pipes for us, all within three hours.

Woke up this morning to discover I had no hot water. These guys were great. I called them at 9:50 AM and had my new water heater Installation completed by 1 PM. Installer even had to rush back to their supplier to get a different size water heater which saved me over $2000 Re- plumbing. The installer was super personable and informative and respectful while on site. Everything went very smoothly. I highly recommend Jafco plumbing and sewer!

I submitted a request for quotes from multiple plumbing companies on Yelp. These guys were one of the first to reply and the positive Yelp reviews convinced me to go with them. They worked around my schedule and took the time to explain the work before and after the job. I'm happy with my experience and will reach out to them for future plumbing needs.

Our kitchen sink was backed up and Graydon came to the rescue. He was professional and told us what we needed to do to prevent future backups. He was in and out in less than an hour. We are very satisfied his honest service. Thank you for being awesome!

This is mixed review. After finding that our sewer line was clogged (backup overflow in a shower and under a toilet) I called Jafco. They were very courteous and responded within a couple of hours just like the other reviews mentioned

Two young men proceeded to work on the clog and after a few hours, they started to wrap up. I asked one of them if they got it cleared and he said no, but the other person would explain.

I was first asked to go over the invoice and pay $548. He wouldn't explain what they found or what other work was needed until the invoice was paid.

After paying, he then went on to explain that the problem is most likely due to a root growing through the sewer line and that a sewer line replacement was needed. I asked if they ran a camera down to confirm and he said that they ran their cable as far as it goes and couldn't actually get to the clog.

I told them I would get back to them since the quote was for $8,500 plus tax. On the upside, they offered to get the excavator and other equipment out within hours or the next morning at the latest.

It seemed that a second opinion was in order, so I contacted another company, Conan's Drain Cleaning, LLC. Conan agreed to come right over since he was close by, even though it was now nearly dinner time.

Conan was very familiar with the sewer system in Lakewood. He got up on our roof and ran a jet down the vent pipe and cleared the blockage within minutes.

Even though we didn't have a sewer drain cleanout, he knew there should be one and even knew where to look. After running a locator bar in to the ground a few times, he found it. There will now be a easily locatable clean-out fr now on.

Since we're selling the house in a few months, we are having Conan come back to do a formal sewer line inspection and to make sure that line still look clear all the way down.

So, Jafco gets:
-5 stars for courteous and prompt response.
-2 stars for performance since they didn't solve the problem
-2 stars for business practice since they would not disclose their proposal until I paid for their unsuccessful work.

If you have them do work and they present you with a large quote like this, get a second opinion. Yes, I had to pay twice for the drain cleaning and if I had called Conan first, I would have saved $548.

I prefer performance-based fees. Since they were unable to solve the problem, they didn't earn that fee in my opinion.

Had a backed up sewer system and have had problems for many many years. They were at my house within 2 hours. After sending a camera down my lines we noticed that my lines were starting to collapse. I received a quote for pipe bursting. Though this is something no one wants to pay for they make it easy. They do offer zero interest loan for 18 months just to get you going. The crew was very friendly and Mitch was great to work with throughout the process. Within 5 days of having problems I had a brand new line installed and my yard looks like it did before after they cleaned up.

Additional review. After the initial mysterious disappearance of my service tech (turns out his wife was in labor), and my previous review, Jafco reached out and promptly rescheduled my estimate. They completed the work quickly and well and even came back to hook up my appliances after they were delivered to make sure everything was functioning properly.

They seemed to be competitively priced. They did a great job, finished on time and showed up when they said they would. Everything passed city inspection first time. I would recommend them!

We were looking for a plumbing company to ""rough in"" for a half bath. We took quotes from 4 companies and Jafco was extremely competitive. Once the work was scheduled they were timely, very professional, and finished the work surprisingly quickly. We are very happy with Jafco and we highly recommend them.

Very impressed with the rapid, same-day response on a Sunday from Noah at Jafco when our kitchen faucet in the home we've been in for a year randomly started severely leaking. Noah suspected a supply line issue and noted it would cost the same for him to replace the faucet as to repair it. We decided to replace the faucet (sooner than we had planned) and Noah recommended Delta touchless as reliable, great warranty, and a one-hour or less install, which we could buy online. Noah didn't charge us for the service call and told us to call and schedule an install and he'd come back and install it whenever the faucet arrived.

While we waited for the faucet to arrive, we did notice that a tightening of the faucet's pull-down connector was all that was needed to stop the deluge, but we were happy to have the replacement due to the faucet losing water pressure rapidly after our move-in.

Noah was prompt for the install appointment, cleaned up after himself, stayed masked, and installed a matching air gap for free. We're very happy with the purchase and we were tickled at Noah's excitement for this brand of faucet. Thanks for a job well (and safely) done!
