Most plumbing companies in the Bay Area add 50% to 150% for after-hours service, but we believe emergencies shouldn’t cost you extra just because they happen at inconvenient times.

Mill Valley homes face unique plumbing challenges due to the area’s older housing stock and environmental conditions. Many homes, especially those built in the 1950s and 1960s, have original clay or cast-iron pipes that are prone to tree root intrusion and corrosion over time.
Water heater issues are also common due to sediment buildup from the local water quality, which can reduce efficiency and lead to more frequent maintenance needs. Drain clogs from sediment accumulation and tree roots infiltrating sewer lines are another frequent problem we handle.
Additionally, many older Mill Valley homes feature galvanized steel or copper pipes that can corrode and develop leaks, especially in areas with hard water that accelerates mineral buildup and pipe deterioration.
