Not always. Simple projects like replacing a P-trap, swapping a faucet, or unclogging a drain are very DIY-friendly with the right tutorial. If you're unsure, give us a call. We're happy to walk you through it over the phone, and if it turns out you need help, we're here for that too.

A repair fixes what's already there: a leak, a clog, a broken fixture. A remodel relocates or adds new plumbing, which typically requires permits and inspections. Not sure which your project is? We'll help you figure it out before you spend a dime.

Avoid pouring grease down the kitchen drain, use a hair strainer in shower drains, and never flush wipes, even "flushable" ones. Check under sinks every few months for slow drips, and flush your water heater annually. With copper lines, watch for green discoloration near fittings, an early sign of corrosion.

Warning signs include low water pressure throughout the home, a sewage smell indoors, water stains on ceilings or walls, or multiple slow drains at once. One slow drain is usually a clog. Several often point to a deeper issue in the drain-waste-vent system.

Rough-in is the first phase of new-construction plumbing: installing drain, waste, vent, and supply lines before the walls are closed. For a typical single-family home it takes 2–5 days, depending on the number of bathrooms and whether gas lines are involved. We coordinate with your framing crew and inspection schedule.

Both are reliable. Copper is time-tested and long-lasting. PEX is flexible, faster to install, and more freeze-resistant, which makes it popular in new construction. We work with both and will recommend the right fit for your project, local code, and budget.

Your main shutoff valve is usually near the water meter, under a sink, or where the main line enters the home. Individual fixtures also have their own shutoff valves. If you can't find yours, call us. We'd rather help you locate it now than have you scrambling during a leak.

Something is almost always running that shouldn't be. The most common cause is a running toilet, since a worn flapper can silently waste hundreds of gallons. Other culprits: a slow leak under a sink, a dripping hose bib, or a leak inside a wall.

Tank water heaters usually last 8–12 years; tankless units can last 20+ with proper care. Replace yours if you notice rusty water, rumbling or popping sounds, inconsistent temperature, or corrosion around the unit. An annual flush can significantly extend its lifespan.

We check supply lines, drain lines, water heater condition, visible pipe corrosion, water pressure, and fixture performance. Our annual maintenance plan is $149 and includes a full inspection and a water heater flush. Catching small issues early can save you thousands.

Homes built before about 1960 often still have galvanized steel pipes, which rust from the inside and typically last 40–60 years. Homes from roughly 1978–1995 may have polybutylene, which is prone to sudden failure. Copper from the 1960s–80s can develop pinhole leaks with age, especially with Southern California's hard water. Low pressure, rusty water, or repeat leaks are signs it's time for a repipe. Try our free repipe checker.
