Drains and sewer lines
Backed up, clogged, and the line to the street.
A kitchen sink, a basement taking on water, a line other plumbers could not figure out. The method is on the drain and sewer cleaning page.
“Robby came out and fixed a backed up line that other plumbers couldn’t figure out. Very professional and efficient, now we can wash clothes again!”
Great!
“There was a blockage in the pipe from our house to the street, causing water to back up into the basement. I dialed, and an instant technician arrived. Excellent in every way; timely, expert, and hospitable! Provided in-process explanations of all procedures. Cost-effective, and it gets the job done quickly. I would highly recommend their sewer cleaning service!”

Water heaters
Replace it before it fails, or after it already has.
Customers describing a leaking tank, a dangerous one, and a 17 year old one replaced on a schedule. See water heaters.
“Burke's guys were great, very knowledgeable and friendly. They took the time to show me the serious problem I had. They will be back and replace my dangerous water heater. AWESOME, will tell anyone to call them!!”

I would recommend him to anyone in a heart beat!”

Saved Us
“We can't say enough good things about Burkes plumbing. During the freeze in Yakima in January 2024 we had a problem with water in the crawl space not knowing where the issues was. Donald Appelhof identified the problem right away and saved us from having a Major Problem that was surely going to happen in the near future. We had an old cast iron pipe that was leaking... the cast iron was connected…”
“I called Burke Plumbing for a pipe leak repair. I was given a time the same day and Jesus Guzman and Jorge Nunez from Burke arrived on time. They were professional, quickly identified the issue and fixed the leak with minimal disruption to our business. I am glad I chose them. Would definitely rehire.”
“Showed up and diligently worked until it was done. He replaced five valves which also helped identify and isolate the leak. They are coming back today to repair the leak.”
Faucets, toilets and repairs
The small jobs, done by the same crew.
A faucet saved instead of replaced, two pressure assist toilets in an office, a frost-free faucet that had leaked for some time, and a crawl under a house.
“Jorge Nunez came to our home and repaired a water shutoff valve to our toilet and the toilet flush valve. He also took the time to repair frost-free faucet on our exterior wall that had leaked for some time. He was prompt, worked quickly, and was polite. Definitely would use Burkes Plumbing and Jorge again should a need arise.”
“Jesus did a great job repairing my faucet. Saved me buying a new one. I liked my old one better anyway. Very satisfied. He and his partner were friendly and knowledgeable.”
Toilet Replacement
“Job was very professionally done, left the site very clean and tidy! Showed me how to adjust the water level if need be. Overall, a very personable encounter!”
“We have had 2 toilets installed in our office, and Marco did both of them for us. Great service and installation, the pressure assist toilets are great for our office. Quick next day service, would recommend!”
“Chris was the best! Arrived the very next morning after I called, expecting to wait a week or more in this short handed environment. Chris arrived, evaluated the issue, way, waaaaay under my house, and fixed everything in no time. He looked over the rest of my plumbing, by request, addressed another issue and everything is all better! I literally will sleep better knowing things are in order under…”
