We got it — thanks!
Someone will call you within 1 business hour. If it's urgent, call us directly at (503) 717-6786.
Galvanized corrosion narrowing your pipes from the inside out — not a pressure regulator issue. The pipe itself is the bottleneck, and it only gets worse.
First-flush discoloration is iron oxide flaking off corroded galvanized walls. It clears through the day but never goes away — and it's getting into your water.
One leak is a repair. A second or third in different locations means the pipe material itself is failing — patching is just postponing the next one.
Quest or Poly-B pipe fails from the inside out without warning. Most Portland-area insurers now flag it on inspection or won't renew without a repipe commitment.
Not a showerhead or faucet issue. After 80+ years, galvanized flow capacity can drop to a fraction of the original opening — only a repipe restores it.
We walk the whole house — every room, every fixture — and document exactly what's being replaced. No surprises on what was or wasn't included.
PEX-A is flexible, so we plan routes that reduce the number of access cuts. Larger openings only where the layout genuinely requires it.
City of Portland permit filed, rough-in inspected, final permit closed. You coordinate nothing with the building department.
Most Portland single-family homes complete in 2–3 days. In most cases we can restore water each evening — we'll tell you at the walkthrough if your setup is one where that isn't possible.
We walk every room, map existing pipe routes, and identify problem materials before writing a single number
Every toilet, sink, tub, shower, dishwasher, and ice maker listed individually — no surprises on what was or wasn't replaced
PEX-A throughout, with flexible routing to minimize wall cuts and a 25-year warranty against the pipe itself
We plan access routes to reduce the number of cuts — larger openings only where the layout requires it
PEX-A's flexibility lets us route with fewer cuts than rigid copper — smaller openings, fewer of them. Drywall finish work is not included, but we'll tell you exactly where and how many openings to expect before any work starts
Portland permit pulled, rough-in inspected by the city, final permit closed before the job is done
Most Portland single-family homes complete in 2–3 days. Water is restored each evening in most cases — we'll flag any exceptions during the walkthrough
Morgan founded and runs bluefrog from SE Portland. The business is woman-owned and LGBTQ-owned — a team that reflects the city we serve. When you call, you reach a local shop whose owner oversees every project, not a national dispatch center routing you to whoever's available.
We price by the job, not by the hour. You see a written estimate after diagnosis and before we touch anything — no overtime charges, no surprises. The number on the estimate is the number on the invoice.
Every technician works under Oregon CCB #255748. We pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and close it out — you don't have to coordinate anything. The work meets Oregon code and gives your home a clean paper trail.
Every technician on our crew is a direct bluefrog employee — background-checked, Oregon-licensed, and accountable to Morgan personally. We don't route calls through a dispatch network or hand off to whoever's available. You'll get the right person for the job, not just whoever's next in the queue.
The team that shows up at your door.

I recently requested an estimate from Bluefrog Plumbing and Drain of Portland for repiping of my home and was very pleased with the overall experience. They responded promptly to my inquiry and were able to schedule a visit quickly. Jeff was professional,…

Pretty nasty job in a crawl space. The crew from Bluefrog were great. Showed up on time, got the job done. Very reasonable pricing. Will definitely use again.

We had Bluefrog install a new water heater in our cellar which is accessible via a very steep and rickety stairway. They managed to get the old heater out and new one in with care. Separately, they connected our new washer and dryer to the water supply and…

I have used many plumbers for my rentals in the past 30 years. BlueFrog Plumbing beats them all. They are efficient, courteous, prompt, very reasonable, and negotiable. Would highly recommend them. Check them out before you hire any other plumber.

Bluefrog Plumbing exceeded my expectations. They were able to schedule me the very same day for a water heater replacement, which I greatly appreciated. Eric arrived early, was professional and friendly, and got right to work. The installation was done with…
Cost varies by home size, number of fixtures, pipe material, and how much of the layout requires new access cuts. After a whole-home walkthrough, we give you a written estimate that lists every fixture individually so you know exactly what's included. There's no charge for the estimate.
Most Portland single-family homes take 2–3 days. In most cases we restore water each evening — some setups and pipe conditions don't allow for it, and we'll tell you which category yours falls into after the walkthrough. Larger homes or complex layouts may run a day longer; you'll get a specific timeline before work starts.
PEX-A is what we install on every repipe. It's flexible enough to route around obstacles with fewer joints — and fewer joints mean fewer future leak points. It handles freeze-thaw cycles well, which matters here when temperatures dip below freezing for a stretch in January. And it carries a 25-year warranty against the pipe itself. For Portland's housing stock — older homes, stud-and-plaster walls, freeze exposure on north-side runs — PEX-A is the right call across the board.
Yes. Oregon requires a permit for whole-house repiping, and the rough-in must pass a city inspection before walls close. We handle the permit application, schedule the inspection, and close out the permit — you don't need to coordinate anything with the city. The final permit gives your home a clean paper trail, which matters when you sell.
Less than most homeowners expect. PEX is flexible, so we route through walls with smaller access holes than rigid copper requires. We map our routes before cutting to keep openings as small and as few as possible. Drywall finish work is not part of our scope — we'll walk you through exactly where openings will be during the estimate so you can plan for a painter or handle it yourself afterward.
We serve most of the Portland metro area — typically within 20 miles of SE Portland.
