The company began with Gayle Hatfield at 2821 S. Jackson in Seattle.
Incorporated in 1950, the company was first known as Hatfield Plumbing and Heating.
Lou Soreano joined Gayle Hatfield in 1952 and quickly became the top plumber.
Lou developed a close bond with Gayle Hatfield.
Upon retiring, Mr. Hatfield chose to sell the business to Lou.
In 1967, Lou acquired the business and added Soreano's to the name.
For a period, we did business as Soreano's Hatfield Plumbing.
In 1973, Lou relocated the business to its current site in Columbia City.
With the addition of a showroom, the business thrived and gained an excellent reputation.
Growing up in the family business, Lou's son Ron learned the plumbing trade.
In 1996, Ron took over the business from Lou.
Hatfield has been dropped from our d.b.a. name.
Now, we proudly operate as Soreano's Plumbing.

Recommended Customer Reviews

Wouldn't return my call and then when I texted him again was very hostile.
Wouldn't want him in my house.

Sorry to say this, but it looks like they will be closing soon. Roger the super helpful office guy has retired. They won't be replacing him. Last week they locked the store doors. No more service for walk in customers. I'm guessing the next step will be, closed for good. They were a fixture we could rely on for many years. Sad to see them go.

They will not install water heater drains. I needed to have this done for a condo and they were not interested.

The service was extremely responsive and punctual. I was very pleased that they were able to schedule me for the next day for a relatively minor shower faucet leak. To their credit, they did advise me in advance what the price would be, perhaps higher than usual because I was told that I have a more complicated German manufactured unit. They sent out 2 plumbers, which might explain the higher price. They seemed to work efficiently and the bill came in at the estimated amount. Overall a positive experience.

Clogged drain again in an older home. Has happened before and called them out again.
Yes, they weren't even close to make their appointment time and they didn't notify me. So the only way to find out was to call them and ask for an estimated new time. But, stuff happens and I get that.
But they stayed later until they got things going again, were very respectful and showed me where the issue was. Masked up and cognizant of where we are in today's world, which is a pretty different place.

A friend highly recommended them. I completely agree. Covid friendly, wearing masks at all time. Very competitively priced. Guys were friendly and very efficient. They explained everything. All parts used were not cheap imports.
They repaired a leak from the meter to my house, even put a valve on my irrigation system for very little extra dollars. Also installed a pressure reducing valve with a gauge and replaced a 1960's shut off valve.
Had bad experiences with plumbers locally for the last 20 years, really happy to find my new goto plumbers

I cannot thank this company enough for their support and service to replace my toilet after I had a ridiculous quote from another company for repair. I called on Thursday and they listened to my concern about pricing and what I needed. The provided me guidance and options. I decided to replace my toilet. They gave me an estimate over the phone and scheduled me for today. They kept their word and called me first thing to let me know they had order my equipment and were on their way. Two hours later Brad had installed my new toilet. I had selected a standard toilet seat but decided I wanted an upgraded soft close seat which they did not have in the truck. Brad called and the delivered the upgraded seat within minutes. So glad I selected them. They are a hometown company that has been in business in south Seattle for years. Happy to support a local business that really cares about value and customer service. Thanks so much.

We have an old craftsman home built in 1920's and Soreano's was highly recommended for old homes. Our old pipes were leaking for sometime and Ron, Brad and crew did a phenomenal job replacing the pipes in our basement. A job that would've taken 5hrs, they completed in 2hrs. Friendly, very knowledgeable and efficient! I think I've found my new go-to plumber. Also, an added bonus they are a small business in Columbia City. Supporting small local businesses!

Had Soreanos replace a toilet. 2 years later it started leaking. Not too helpful when we called. $250 charge just to show up we were told. We know it was 2 years later but we've never had a toilet last such a short amount of time and then we were surprised they weren't interested in working with us. The original bill wasn't cheap!

Applause is my word of choice for Eli and his team member who came and took care of everything that has to do with water at my condo. Replaced two toilets, changed all the doodads and thing a ma jigs that are attached to the sinks and the washing machine. They even installed a sensor under my sink that warns me of dishwasher or other leaks. I didn't even know you could do that! And to top it off, they showed me why the sagging sink in one of the bathrooms was about to hit the floor -- it was attached with two bolts to ..... the dry wall. Oh my. Can't believe it. They suggested I purchase a vanity and once I have that they'll install it. I'm calling them tomorrow and hope to see their smiles soon.
