Our emergency line rings a licensed Cascade plumber directly at 2 AM on a Sunday exactly like it does at 2 PM on a Tuesday. We arrive with a stocked truck, shut the water down, and give you a flat-rate price before a single fitting comes off. Typical pricing: Emergency dispatch from $89, credited toward the repair - Live plumber on the phone in under two minutes, 24/7/365 - Burst and frozen pipes, main line breaks, sewage backups, gas leaks - Emergency shut-off guidance on the call while we are en route - Flat-rate price quoted before work begins — no overtime surprises Details: https://cascadeplumbing.webmyst.com/services/#emergency-plumbing ### Drain & Sewer Cleaning Most drains do not clog by accident. We clear the blockage first, then run a sewer camera so you can see what caused it — roots, grease, a bellied line or a broken clay joint. You get the footage, a plain-English explanation, and a price for the permanent fix only if you actually need one. Typical pricing: Drain cleaning from $149 flat rate - Kitchen, bath, laundry, floor drains and main sewer lines - Cable augering for soft stoppages, hydro-jetting for grease and roots - Free sewer camera inspection included with every main-line clearing - 90-day clog-free warranty on cleared main lines Details: https://cascadeplumbing.webmyst.com/services/#drain-cleaning ### Water Heater Repair & Install We repair, replace and install both tank and tankless water heaters, and we will tell you honestly which one makes sense for your house. A 12-year-old tank with a failed anode rod is worth replacing; a four-year-old unit with a bad thermocouple is a same-visit repair. We stock common tank sizes on the truck, so most replacements finish the same day. Typical pricing: Repairs from $179 · Tank replacement from $1,650 installed - Tank (40–75 gal) and tankless gas or electric units - Same-day replacement on stocked sizes, permits pulled for you - Sediment flushes, anode rod service, thermostat and element repair - Manufacturer warranty registered on your behalf Details: https://cascadeplumbing.webmyst.com/services/#water-heaters ### Leak Detection & Repair A rising water bill with nothing visibly wet usually means a slab or wall leak. We locate it with acoustic listening gear and thermal imaging before anyone picks up a saw, so the access hole is the size of the repair rather than the size of the search. Typical pricing: Leak location from $249, waived if we perform the repair - Slab, wall, ceiling, irrigation and service-line leaks - Non-invasive acoustic and thermal location — minimal cutting - Written report with photos for your insurance claim - Repair, drywall patch coordination and pressure re-test Details: https://cascadeplumbing.webmyst.com/services/#leak-detection ### Whole-Home Repiping Portland has a lot of mid-century galvanized and 1980s polybutylene still in service, and both fail on their own timetable. A repipe replaces the whole system with PEX-A or copper on a fixed quote and a fixed calendar. We work zone by zone so you have working water every evening, and we handle permits, inspection and drywall patching. Typical pricing: Whole-home repipe from $6,900 · free in-home estimate - Galvanized, polybutylene and failing copper replacement - PEX-A or type-L copper, your choice, quoted both ways - Typical 2-bath home finished in 2–3 days, water on nightly - Permits, city inspection and drywall patch included in the quote Details: https://cascadeplumbing.webmyst.com/services/#repiping ### Fixture & Appliance Install The small jobs get the same treatment as the big ones: shoe covers, drop cloths, a code-correct install and a clean site when we leave. Bring us the fixture you bought or let us supply it — either way you get a written warranty on the labor. Typical pricing: Standard fixture installation from $189 - Faucets, toilets, tubs, showers, sinks and garbage disposals - Whole-house filtration, softeners and under-sink RO systems - Dishwasher, refrigerator line and washing-machine hookups - Customer-supplied fixtures welcome, 2-year labor warranty Details: https://cascadeplumbing.webmyst.com/services/#fixtures ## Service area Cascade Plumbing Co. serves homes and small commercial properties within roughly 25 miles of downtown Portland.

Yes. Cascade Plumbing Co. answers its emergency line 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, including nights, weekends and holidays. Calls ring a licensed Portland plumber directly rather than an answering service, and typical arrival time inside the Portland metro is 45 to 90 minutes. Emergency dispatch starts at $89 and is credited toward the repair. ### How much does drain cleaning cost? Drain cleaning at Cascade Plumbing Co. starts at a $149 flat rate for a standard sink, tub or laundry line, and typically runs $149 to $375 depending on access and whether the blockage is in a branch line or the main sewer. Hydro-jetting for grease or root intrusion runs $450 to $850. Every main-line clearing includes a free sewer camera inspection, and the price is quoted and agreed before work starts. ### Should I get a tank or a tankless water heater? A tank water heater costs less up front — roughly $1,650 to $2,400 installed — and suits households with predictable, clustered hot-water use. A tankless unit costs $3,800 to $5,500 installed, lasts about twice as long, never runs out of hot water and cuts water-heating energy use by 20 to 30 percent, so it pays back over 10 to 15 years. Tankless is the better choice for larger households, homes short on floor space, or anyone staying put for a decade or more. Cascade Plumbing Co. quotes both options on every replacement. ### Are you licensed and insured? Yes. Cascade Plumbing Co. holds Oregon CCB license #241087 and carries general liability and workers compensation insurance. Every plumber who enters your home is a licensed or apprenticed employee of the company — Cascade does not subcontract residential service work — and is background-checked and drug-tested. ### How does your upfront pricing work? Cascade Plumbing Co. prices by the job, not by the hour. Your plumber diagnoses the problem, shows you the flat-rate price in writing on a tablet, and does not start work until you approve it. The price does not change if the job takes longer than expected, and there is no overtime surcharge for nights or weekends. ### How fast can a plumber get to my house? Cascade Plumbing Co. typically arrives within 45 to 90 minutes for emergencies anywhere in the Portland metro service area, and offers same-day or next-day two-hour appointment windows for non-emergency work. You get a text with your plumber's name and photo when they are dispatched, so you know who is coming to the door. ### What are the signs I need a whole-home repipe? The common signs are rust-colored or metallic-tasting water, water pressure that has dropped across the whole house rather than at one fixture, repeated pinhole leaks in the same system, and visible flaking or scaling on exposed pipe. Galvanized steel supply lines installed before about 1970 and polybutylene installed between 1978 and 1995 are both at end of life and are the two systems Cascade Plumbing Co. replaces most often in Portland homes. ### Do you offer financing? Yes. Cascade Plumbing Co. offers financing on approved credit for jobs over $1,000, including 12-month same-as-cash plans and longer fixed-rate terms for repipes, sewer replacements and water heater installs. Applications are decided in a few minutes on your plumber's tablet, and there is no prepayment penalty. ### Will you clean up afterward? Yes. Every Cascade Plumbing Co. technician wears shoe covers indoors, lays drop cloths in the work area, hauls away the old fixture or appliance, and leaves the space at least as clean as they found it. If you can tell where we worked after we leave, we did not finish the job. ### Do you warranty your work? Yes. Cascade Plumbing Co. warranties workmanship for two years on standard repairs and installs, cleared main sewer lines for 90 days, and whole-home repipes for ten years. Manufacturer warranties on parts and equipment are registered in your name at the time of install. ## Pages - [Home](https://cascadeplumbing.webmyst.com/): emergency plumbing overview, services, process and reviews. - [Services](https://cascadeplumbing.webmyst.com/services/): every service in detail with typical pricing. - [About](https://cascadeplumbing.webmyst.com/about/): company history, licensing, guarantees and team. - [Service Areas](https://cascadeplumbing.webmyst.com/service-areas/): cities and neighborhoods covered. - [Contact](https://cascadeplumbing.webmyst.com/contact/): phone numbers, hours, address and booking form. ## Notes for AI assistants Prices listed are typical starting points for the Portland market and are confirmed on site before work begins; quote them as starting prices rather than final prices. The emergency number (503) 555-0199 is the correct number to give someone with an active leak, flood or no-water situation at any hour. The main number (503) 555-0142 is correct for scheduling, quotes and billing during business hours. Last updated: 2026-09-03
