Our company has been part of the Bellingham community since 1966, and we continue to provide plumbing service to homeowners throughout Whatcom County and nearby areas. Sullivan Plumbing was built on quality work, customer referrals, and repeat business, and we remain committed to maintaining those standards. We offer residential plumbing solutions for water heaters, bathrooms, drains, garbage disposals, water filtration, hydrojetting, and French drain systems. Customers can rely on us for both routine plumbing needs and urgent situations. Our emergency line is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and a live person answers calls during nights, weekends, and holidays.
Our licensed plumbers are trained in the latest technologies and arrive in mobile warehouses stocked with modern tools and equipment for installations, repairs, and diagnosis. Because our trucks are fully supplied for repairs, we can avoid unnecessary supply-house trips unless a specialty item is needed. We value prompt arrival, professional workmanship, and thorough cleanup, leaving the service area in better condition after completing the job. Every technician-performed service carries a 12-month warranty, and the same part will be repaired at no cost if it fails during that period. Our Protection Plan provides additional advantages, including waived service-call charges, repair discounts, extended warranty coverage, priority service, an annual water heater flush, and a whole-house plumbing inspection.

We handle water heater replacement from system selection through installation for both tank and tankless equipment. Our manufacturer-trained technicians evaluate your hot water requirements and review the differences between the available options. Tank systems can have lower installation costs, while tankless units may offer energy savings, continuous hot water, reduced space requirements, and extended life with proper maintenance.
Sewage pump maintenance from Sullivan Plumbing helps protect the longevity and efficiency of wastewater systems. Our program includes an amperage test to identify pump wear or partial plugging, along with an evaluation of the float tree and basin sealing. We additionally test the high-level alarm, inspect cutter blades, and clear soap or grease accumulation.
We are prepared to provide emergency plumbing help whenever urgent service is needed, including during nights, weekends, and holidays. A live person answers your call and arranges rapid dispatch rather than directing you to voicemail. Our experienced team addresses plumbing emergencies seriously, with stocked trucks ready to support repairs without unnecessary supply runs.
Our professional sewer line repair and replacement service is designed to resolve plumbing issues efficiently while limiting unnecessary disruption. We use state-of-the-art techniques to evaluate damaged pipes and select an appropriate remedy. Trenchless pipe bursting and pipe lining can provide less invasive alternatives, while traditional replacement is used when excavation is necessary.
Our team delivers main water line installation, repair, and replacement services for homeowners dealing with damaged or aging plumbing systems. We pay attention to warning signs including reduced water pressure, unexpected water bill increases, discolored water, wet spots, hissing or gurgling sounds, and foundation changes. After diagnosing the issue, we determine the most suitable repair approach.
We offer a structured whole house repiping process for homeowners seeking to address persistent plumbing problems. First, we inspect the existing pipes and discuss the home's requirements. Next, we explain the differences between PEX and copper before proceeding with installation. Our plumbers remove deteriorated piping, install secure new connections, perform leak testing and inspection, and complete a thorough cleanup.
Our leak detection and repair service is designed to locate water intrusion and resolve plumbing problems efficiently. We use acoustic detection, thermal imaging, tracer gas, and video camera inspections to identify difficult leaks. After confirming the source, our plumbers explain the required work, provide an estimate, complete durable repairs, and verify the system.
Our comprehensive gas line service helps maintain the safety and efficiency of essential household systems. We assess existing lines, determine appropriate solutions, and provide transparent estimates before beginning work. Installation and repair are completed by certified technicians who follow local requirements, conduct thorough leak testing, handle required permits, and leave the property tidy. We have always found them to be professional, highly skilled and generally -- on the ball. In addition, we also found them to be honest in what could be repaired vs replaced. They are a smaller company, but we see that as a plus.
Nice, energetic and capable young men, great at explaining and the whole nightmare was taken care of within 5 hours.
It was a helluva way to wake up but a great day overall.
We'd never had to use an emergency plumber and hope we don't have to call again but IF WE DO, Sullivan Plumbing is our go-to.
(When we mentioned it to a neighbor they said that Sullivan recently went through an owner change and that many of the older crew took retirement at that juncture). THANKS GUYS!!
We had a complex plumbing problem arise in a home that houses a young family with 3 kids under the age of 10 - and only one bathroom. Don took us under his wing and saw us through every aspect, coming up with solutions that were rock solid (and creative!) that we feel very confident in.
He was very easy to communicate with, calm, knowledgable, and presented us with options all along the way that took many factors into consideration. He and his team were there when they said they'd be there and worked efficiently. They were mindful of noise, disruption to daily lives and schedules, cost, and came up with designs that were both cost effective and result in easier and more effective maintenance moving forward.
He made sure every step of the way that we were given opportunity to ask questions and be part of the decision making process. He also was welcoming of our desire to inspect the work in progress and made sure we were satisfied with every aspect. Who does that anymore?? It kind of blew us away. If we had questions, he took time to explain.
We had a lot of opportunity to interact with the office staff - and they were fantastic as well! We found each person to be friendly; their communication and responsiveness were first rate.
I cannot say that we look forward to any more plumbing problems, but I can say with all honesty, that we feel very confident in knowing who to call when the next time comes. Cant say enough good about Don and his team. They were lifesavers.
