Five black stars, side by side, representing a perfect rating.

Bo Josephine

I will be using this company for any future plumbing I need done because they were fantastic! We heard rushing water behind one of the walls in our home. We didn't have access to the leak behind the wall. I called them, they answered immediately and walked me through a quick plan. They were at the house the same day and within 24 hours it was fixed and taken care of. They are great! Fair pricing, on top of the communication, kind and skilled. Grateful they were the ones I called!

Clinton Criddle

Very professional and knowledgeable, they repiped my entire house in less than a day plus installed a new water heater. I recommend you call this company first if you want a job well done at an affordable and fair price.

Shanyn Hart

All I can say is wow! They did an awesome job on fixing a leak in my antique claw tub shower unit. They were quick to identify the problem and were in and out of here within an hour, even having to go down to the local hardware store to get the fix. Reasonably priced and here within a couple days. Techs were efficient and super nice. I will be hiring them again!

Jessica Wheatley

Called Jesse at Avalanche Plumbing for a main water valve emergency...they couldn't come out because he was booked but gave us guidance over the phone. His advice worked and crisis was averted. I was so grateful hat he answered the phone and was willing to help us out. Outstanding customer service! Thank you Jesse!

Julie

Friendly, reliable, prompt and very knowledgeable. Prioritized our issue and came immediately over to help with flooding in basement when our last plumbing company said it would be like 5 days. So grateful to have sewer and water for the weekend!

Brian Van Sickle

Jesse and his father in law, Joe, went above and beyond to respond to our crisis of a gas leak in one of the pipes coming into the house. They responded immediately and then graciously negotiated with Atmos Energy and the federal inspectors to come to the house within 24 hours. They were great! I can’t say enough about their professionalism and helpful spirit!

Matt

Great customer service and excellent work. They were able to make it out to the property within a hour of the leak being discovered and got it fixed and water flowing again. Saved my family a ton of stress and hardship. I highly recommend Avalanche Plumbing & Boiler!!!

Michael Brown

Scott Templeman

Great guys had big leak under the house, call Avalanche Plumbing here the next day, Fixed problem. Best plumbers around 4 corners area by far. Live here 20 yrs. They are the best !!! Great price and very happy to fix the problem. I even received a call back to make sure i was happy and problem was fixed, Thank you Avalanche Plumbing

Ashley Goodall

These guys are top notch. I was having water heater problems. When I called, I got the nicest guy on the phone. They quickly identified my problem and said he would get a guy out as soon as he could. When the plumber was headed out to my house, he gave me plenty of notice. When he was there, he said the problem was much smaller than we had thought. He didn’t try to up charge me or try to fix something that wasn’t broken. We will definitely use this company again.

Boy did I hit the jackpot with this company! These gentlemen were professional, knowledgeable and friendly! They did my repairs easily and quickly! I highly recommend them and will refer my friends and family their way! They exceeded my expectations ❤️

Rachel Kyle

Jesse has a great team and affordable pricing! He came right away to check out our issue and quote us quick for a whole house filter upgrade. They are by far the most knowledgeable in the area (been thru the ringer with our issue the past few years) and super easy to communicate with. Definitely recommend!

Brett Morell

When you’ve got a mystery leak, you need someone you can trust to find it. Two people referred me to Jesse, so I called him. He was able to come out within 2 business days. He and his trusty team found the leak and fixed it within 15 minutes! Not only that, they gave me recommendations and referrals on next steps to repair some damage caused by the leak. Highly recommend Jesse and his team!

Melissa

Saturday morning Labor Day weekend we had a water leak we could hear but not see, within less than an hour of calling they were under the house diagnosing, working on the problem and had us up and running in no time! They are amazing! Would definitely call again and highly recommend! Thank you guys again!

Chris Ballantine

Jesse and his crew are great! He responds quickly and gets someone out to my house right away. One time he did a video call with me after hours to help diagnose a problem and had someone come out that night. I highly recommend!

Conversations with Carla Nelson

We were sure our water heater needed to be replaced and insisted Jesse bring one with him. He immediately lit the pilot light on our old one, something we had spent days trying to make happen. Fast, courteous service...and a plumber with true integrity!

Sally Fochtman

Avalanche Plumbing and Boiler exceeded my hopes and expectations! Jesse and Joey were knowledgeable, super helpful, patient, and efficient! After some quick looking around, they were able to pinpoint our sewer backup problem and fix it immediately! I’m sure you can imagine my relief, knowing I could use my toilet, washer, and sinks again. I recommend them without hesitation and will be calling them for all of our plumbing needs! 5 stars! Great guys!

Angela Atkinson

Jesse and Sawyer went above and beyond. There were issues with our septic system that were missed by the new home inspection that these guys figured out.


Did I mention that their work was outside in a pouring rainstorm? They are very quick to respond and committed to superior customer service. I’d highly recommend Avalanche for any job!

Thomas Little

I was getting nowhere calling for help with a leaking sink. Then I called the guys at Avalanche Plumbing. They answered right away and gave me an estimate on their arrival. They were nice, local, and professional! They fixed the problem in 5 minutes. They even showed me exactly what they did so I could understand the problem. Then they didn't even change me anything! They just said call Avalanche whenever I have plumbing issues. It's great to have professional help when you need it

John Godbout

These guys have showed up any time and every time. Great work and super nice to deal with. They’ve done a full bathroom addition on an apartment, fixed a boiler at a my hotel, inspected a possible bathroom change at a rental and our currently doing a sewer repair for me. 100% badass.
