"Alamo Garage Doors provided an outstanding experience when my garage door stopped opening one morning. The technician arrived quickly, identified the issue with the motor, and repaired it on-site. He also checked the door’s balance and made a few adjustments that made it work smoother than before. I really appreciated their honesty and efficiency."

We are a proud winner of the Angi List Super Service Award for many years! Please call us at 888-851-1418 or 253-750-0861 to schedule an estimate. Please note: We are a full replacement company - We are not offering any repair or cleaning services at this time. At Northern Pacific Exteriors our goal is to provide homeowners with quality products and master craftsman installation. Our prices are always affordable and customer service is always our top priority. We understand that it can be tough finding a contractor you can trust, and that is why we do things the way we do. When we come out to your home we explain your project to you from start to finish. We will answer all of your questions and give you an estimate down to the penny. No games, no pressure, just good business. With this challenging economy we understand that times can be tough, and people are sometimes sacrificing quality for price. We offer a solution with factory direct pricing on several products and easy, flexible financing options (O.A.C.). Once you make the decision to improve your home with us, we will work diligently to complete your project in the agreed upon time frame. We will treat your home and neighborhood as if they were our own.

"It is hard to believe that it has been almost three years since Northern Pacific Exteriors completed our full house siding project. I’d like to offer a long-term review now that we’ve had a few years to live with the results. It is hard to believe, but I think I’m even happier with the quality of the work now than I was when they wrapped up the job. The house looks as good as it did when they pulled out of the driveway for the last time. I literally have nothing that doesn’t look right about the job after three years of living with it. The work still looks new. Northern Pacific Exteriors is the contractor we all hope we find, especially for big-ticket projects that require highly skilled crews. Superb attention to detail. Every promise was kept. Easy to work with. Fair pricing. Kept to the schedule and showed up with a full crew everyday. Left the job site clean. Honest, fair, and straightforward in every way - no games just superior results. I just cannot recommend them too highly. If you need to have work done, care about quality workmanship and want the peace of mind that comes from dealing with real professionals, these are the folks for your job."

A+ rating on the Better Business Bureau (BBB) !

"Ryan and his crew did a great job building out Car Port. From the first time we talked to a completed project was about 6 or 7 weeks. He and his crew were very professional and, came on time, and exceeded my expectations with respect to the quality, time to finish, etc. Ryan also collaborated with another team of professionals that were contracted to place Solar Pannels onto the Car Port that was just completed. He made sure that all of their requirements and spec were addressed while building the Car Port. THANK YOU Ryan and Co!"

Toilets questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can pour water down the toilet to help it flush. For each flush, you’ll need 1 to 2 gallons of water for newer toilets or 3 to 5 gallons of water for older toilets. Rather than dumping the entire bucket in all at once, pour the water in slowly for the best results. If you’re pouring water down the toilet to help it flush after a clog, only use 1 gallon of hot water.

Basement toilets don’t always need a pump. However, it is the most common setup because plumbing systems use gravity to move waste away from the home. Basement toilets often sit below the home’s main sewage system, and installing a sewage ejector pump pushes the wastewater and sewage up to the main sewer line. Alternatively, you can use an upflush or macerator toilet that breaks down the waste and pushes it straight to the main sewer line rather than via a sewer line from the bathroom.

If you notice that your toilet is leaking puddles near the base, the leak is coming from your toilet bowl, and the water could be unsanitary. This is a situation that needs to be dealt with immediately—call a nearby plumbing repair pro right away. A contained leak from tank to bowl is not as urgent a situation, but it could be raising the cost of your water bill—have it looked at as soon as you can.

A high pitch noise after flushing is likely caused by the fill valve being clogged with debris. You can repair this and eliminate the noise by removing the fill valve from the tank, and then cleaning the valve screen. Place the clean fill valve back in the tank and flush as normal.

To keep your toilet in good working order, replace the toilet fill valve every five years. Toilets get quite a workout, so while toilet maintenance may not be on top of your to-do list, it’s essential to keep up with it to ensure your toilet is in good working order and ready when needed.
