How it works
How matching works
You describe the plumbing problem, and one independent Spokane-area plumbing contractor who does that kind of work contacts you to quote it. Matching is free and there is no obligation. Quote requests open soon; here is what will happen when they do.
Step by step
- 1. Work out what you are dealing with The urgency ladder on the home page sorts common problems by how fast they need a plumber and tells you what to do first.
- 2. Check the normal price band The cost guide gives dated ranges, so a quote does not arrive as a surprise.
- 3. Send a request (once requests open) What is wrong, your ZIP code and how to reach you. Nothing else.
- 4. It goes to one independent plumber A Spokane-area plumbing contractor who covers your area and does that kind of work.
- 5. You check their license Ask for the Washington plumbing contractor license number and look it up in L&I's Verify tool. It takes a few minutes.
- 6. They quote, you decide The price, the permit and the work are between you and the plumber.
Start here: match your problem, the cost guide, the permit guide and the license check.
What we do with your details
When requests open, your contact details and the description of the problem go to the specific independent plumber you are matched with, so they can contact you about that request. We do not sell them and we do not share them for marketing. The full version is in the privacy policy.
What we do not do
- Perform, supervise or guarantee plumbing work.
- Set the plumber's price or take payment for the job.
- Dispatch anyone in an emergency. If water is spreading, close the main shutoff first; the emergency page covers the rest.

Questions about matching
How does Spokane Elite Plumber make money?
Plumbing contractors may pay us for the requests we pass along. You pay us nothing, and we do not set the plumber's price. We do not sell your details to lists or advertisers.
Do you do the plumbing?
No. Spokane Elite Plumber is a referral service. We do not perform plumbing work and we are not a plumbing contractor. The work, the price and any warranty are between you and the independent plumber you hire.
Is the plumber licensed?
Check, every time. Washington's Department of Labor & Industries says all plumbing contract work must be performed by a licensed plumbing contractor, and that only L&I-certified plumbers can legally do plumbing work on someone else's property. Ask for the plumbing contractor license number and look it up in L&I's Verify tool before work starts.
Can I request a match now?
Not yet. Quote requests open soon. Until then the guides on this site are free to use, and nothing you do here sends a request to any plumber.
Am I obliged to hire the plumber who contacts me?
No. The quote is free to decline, and you can get others.
