United Plumbing.

The state insures United Plumbing under the workers'-comp class for plumbing and sewer pipe cleaning, which matches the service list: this is a service and repair outfit. The crew sits in the four-to-six band, small enough that the same few people are likely to show up. Spokane County plumbing permits run from 2024 into 2026, with work sites in Spokane, north toward Mead and southwest in Cheney. The state lists Clifford Sherman and Kristina Sherman as principals since 2021. Smaller jobs like dishwasher hookups and water heater swaps sit alongside the heavier sewer and main drain work. The shop suits a homeowner with an urgent problem: a backed-up main line, a sewer line that needs clearing, or water standing in the crawlspace. It also fits a repair that crosses trades, where plumbing, electrical and heating work need to be sorted out by one contractor instead of three. Booking is a phone call. For a new-construction plumbing package or a large commercial building, a contractor built around that kind of work is a better match. Spokane's older neighborhoods, from the South Hill to the north side, still have houses with galvanized supply lines, cast iron drains and clay sewer laterals that roots find their way into. Those materials are usually behind the slow drains, rust-colored water and sewer backups that lead to repiping or a main line replacement. Newer homes in Mead and on the edges of Cheney mostly run PEX and plastic drain lines and tend to need fixture and water heater work instead. Crawlspaces are common in both, and a burst line or a heavy spring melt can leave water under the floor. Ask whether a camera inspection of the sewer line makes sense before agreeing to replace it.
