Black Diamond’s Amazing Journey And Our Dedication
Back in the 1880s, Black Diamond wasn’t just a dot on the map, it was alive with grit, purpose, and the hard-earned pride of coal miners building a future from the ground up. What began as a bustling company town has grown into the close-knit community we know today. Still rich in character, still grounded in hard work, and still holding onto its small-town soul.
The Black Diamond Coal Company built this town from scratch. Miners lived in neat rows of frame houses on hillsides, while massive coal-loading bunkers dominated the landscape. By 1895, these mines made more coal than anywhere else in King County, which was pretty impressive for a little mountain town.
The city was officially incorporated on February 19, 1959, but the real transformation came later. As coal mining faded, Black Diamond revamped itself. Today’s residents work in Seattle, Bellevue, and other metro areas, but they come home to something special. Spectacular mountain views, friendly neighbours, and that peaceful small-town vibe you just can’t find in the city.
As Black Diamond evolved, so did its homes. You’ve got everything from sturdy mining-era houses to brand-new modern-day developments. Each era brings unique plumbing challenges, and we’ve seen them all. Our Black Diamond plumbers know exactly what to expect when we walk into your home.
