A plumber at home
in a century-old house. Big Four Plumbing — licensed plumber serving Snohomish and Snohomish County, WA.

Historic downtown Snohomish is full of homes older than the pipes that serve them — Victorians and craftsman houses on galvanized supply and cast-iron stacks. We love this housing stock, we're careful with it, and we're about twenty-five minutes away.

Local knowledge / 02

What Snohomish homes
throw at us.

A century of housing means a century of plumbing eras — often in the same house.

01

Galvanized on its last legs

Galvanized supply pipe from the early 1900s rusts shut from the inside — low pressure and brown water are the tells. We repipe in PEX or copper with minimal wall damage.

02

Cast-iron stacks

Original cast iron can be fine or can be paper-thin. We scope before recommending anything, and only replace what's actually failed.

03

River valley properties

Homes near the Snohomish and Pilchuck rivers deal with damp crawlspaces and high groundwater. We plan drainage, sump, and pipe routing around it.

04

Layers of history

Additions from the 40s, a remodel in the 70s, a flip in the 2000s — we untangle mystery plumbing without tearing up more than needed.

Snohomish FAQ / 03

Snohomish questions.

Have a different one? Call (360) 488-8553.

How fast can you get to Snohomish?

About twenty-five minutes from our Granite Falls shop, down Highway 9. Emergencies dispatch immediately, 24/7.

Which parts of Snohomish do you cover?

The historic downtown, the Blackmans Lake area, Three Lakes, and the surrounding river valley — the 98290 and 98296 ZIPs are core territory for us.

My old house has low water pressure. Is that a repipe?

Usually it's corroded galvanized supply. Sometimes a partial repipe of the worst runs buys years. We'll scope it, show you what we see, and quote both options honestly.

Can you keep the vintage look in a remodel?

Yes — modern PEX and code-compliant venting behind the walls, and we're happy to plumb reproduction or restored fixtures in front of them.

Do you pull permits in Snohomish?

Yes. Inside city limits, permits go through the City of Snohomish; outside, through Snohomish County. Old houses especially benefit from doing this by the book.
