Plumb Zebra & Turd Nerds is a Spokane Valley plumbing outfit whose state insurance classes center on plumbing and sewer line cleaning, and the work follows that line: drain cleaning, hydro jetting and sewer video inspections, plus water heaters, leak repair and fixture upgrades. The company advertises 24-hour emergency service and works both sides of the state line, from Spokane and Spokane Valley to Coeur d'Alene, Post Falls, Hayden and Rathdrum.

Permits pulled under the licence since 2023 back that sewer focus. Most are Spokane County sewer permits for houses, with others for a manufactured home park and a commercial site in Spokane Valley, along with City of Spokane Valley plumbing, mechanical and right-of-way permits. The state lists Joseph Metge and William Metge as principals since 2022, and the crew falls in the 11 to 20 worker band. The company describes itself as family-owned and advertises a one-year guarantee on parts and labor, plus discounts for military and first responders. The service list runs from small fixes to larger installs: burst pipes, leak detection, gas lines, main water shut-off replacement, tankless and tank water heaters, water softeners, sink and faucet swaps, spigots and yard hydrants. That makes the shop a fit for a backed-up main line, a failed water heater on a winter night, or a round of fixture updates in Spokane Valley or North Idaho. Electrical work, HVAC and large commercial projects that need a general contractor to run them belong with someone else. Repair or replace is the usual question with sewer lines and water heaters on a Spokane home. A camera inspection settles a lot of it: one root intrusion or a single sag in an older clay line can often be jetted or spot-repaired, while a line that's cracked or offset along its length is usually better replaced than cleaned again every year. For water heaters, age and the condition of the tank matter more than any one failed part, and hard water wears tanks faster. Ask to see the footage or the old part before deciding.
