Frequently asked questions
What should I do if my sewer is backing up in Seattle?
If your sewer is backing up, stop using all water in the home or building immediately to prevent further sewage from entering the drain system. Do not use toilets, sinks, or showers. Call Beacon Plumbing at (206) 720-2040 for immediate 24/7 emergency response. A licensed plumber can typically be at your Seattle property within 90 minutes. Keep people and pets away from the affected area until the issue is resolved.
How does Beacon locate a sewer blockage in Seattle?
Beacon Plumbing uses sewer camera inspection technology to visually identify the location and cause of a sewer blockage without unnecessary digging. The camera is fed through the drain line and the technician views a live feed to pinpoint the blockage, crack, root intrusion, or collapse. This approach saves time and protects your property before any repair work is recommended.
Does Beacon Plumbing offer trenchless sewer repair in Seattle?
Yes. Beacon Plumbing offers trenchless sewer repair and Perma-Liner pipe relining for eligible Seattle properties. Trenchless methods restore the sewer line from the inside without requiring full excavation of the yard or driveway, which significantly reduces repair time, cost, and property disruption. A camera inspection is performed first to determine whether the line qualifies for trenchless repair.

What Seattle customers are saying
Thousands of verified reviews from homeowners and businesses across the Puget Sound.
"Raw sewage was coming up through our basement drain at 11 o'clock on a Tuesday night. I was panicking. Beacon answered immediately, told me exactly what to do until the plumber arrived, and had someone at our door in just over an hour. The tech was calm, professional, and had it cleared and cleaned up by 1am. I will never call anyone else."
Patricia M. | Queen Anne, Seattle | Sewer backup, 11pm on a weeknight
"Our sewer line had collapsed under the backyard and sewage was pooling near the foundation. Beacon ran the camera, showed me exactly what was wrong, and had a crew out the next morning to dig and replace the section. They were respectful of the yard and the cleanup was thorough. When something like this happens you find out fast who is actually good at their job."
George L. | Rainier Valley, Seattle | Main sewer line collapse
"Our restaurant kitchen drain backed up completely during prep on a busy Friday morning. Beacon was the only company that picked up. They had a tech there in 45 minutes with a hydro jet and had us clear before we opened at 11. I cannot say enough good things about how fast and professional they were."

Bill Cahill
Owner, Beacon Plumbing
Founded 1995
A message from the owner
Built on hard work and a commitment to this community
Bill Cahill started Beacon Plumbing in 1995 with five trucks and a simple philosophy: hire great people, work hard, and treat every customer the way you would want to be treated. Thirty years later, that philosophy has not changed. What started as a small Seattle operation has grown into a team of 100 licensed, bonded, and insured technicians working around the clock to serve homeowners and businesses across the Puget Sound.
Bill believes deeply in giving back to the community that has supported Beacon's growth. Over the years, Beacon has sponsored the Miss Beacon Plumbing hydroplane at Seattle Seafair, supported Crime Stoppers of Puget Sound in the fight against human trafficking, donated musical instruments and a music teacher to St. George School, and partnered with Northwest Harvest, Ronald McDonald House, and Mamma's Hands. The Seahawks and Mariners logos on Beacon trucks are not just sponsorships - they are a reflection of Bill's pride in Seattle and the people who call it home.
When you call Beacon Plumbing, you are not calling a national franchise. You are calling a company that was built here, employs your neighbors, and is invested in this region for the long haul.
