Gene's Plumbing handles repiping across Nicasio and the surrounding area — licensed, insured and available for emergencies.
Polybutylene and old galvanized are the two materials that bring most Nicasio repipe calls. Both fail from the inside, and both fail everywhere at roughly the same time.
Every house handles repiping a little differently depending on its age, and Nicasio has plenty of both old and new. The fitting, the pipe material and the way the last plumber left it all change what the right repair is.
That is why the Nicasio truck carries parts for more than one era of plumbing. The repiping job gets finished on the first visit wherever it can be, because a second trip costs you a day and costs us the trust.
The order we work in, and why.
A plumber asks the questions on the phone that narrow it down, so the right parts and the right machine are already on the truck when it arrives.
A gauge goes on the system, a camera goes down the line, or the meter gets checked with everything off — whichever actually answers the question. Nobody quotes a repair on a guess.
If there is a cheaper option that will actually hold, you hear about it. If the cheap option is a patch that fails in six months, you hear that too.
Before the truck goes you see it working — the drain running, the pressure holding, the pit cycling — not just a thumbs up from the driveway.
Common questions, answered plainly.
It depends on what the diagnosis turns up, which is why you get a firm price for your repiping job in Nicasio before any work starts rather than an hourly rate that runs while you wait.
Anything actively leaking or backing up is treated as same-day in Nicasio. Scheduled repiping work is usually booked within two or three business days.
Drop cloths go down before anything starts, cuts are made as small and as clean as the repiping job allows, and everything removed leaves with the truck when the Nicasio work is done.
If the situation is urgent, yes — Nicasio emergency calls are answered day and night, and the first priority is stopping the water before the repiping repair is started.
Real reviews from real service calls.
"Got a quote elsewhere for a full repipe at five figures. Second opinion here found two bad sections and a pressure regulator. Cost me a fraction of the first number."
"Old cast iron stack was leaking behind the wall. They cut it out and put in new, and were careful about dust with plastic and a fan. That mattered with a baby in the house."
"Water heater let go on a Sunday morning and flooded half the basement. Had someone here inside two hours, new tank in by afternoon, and he hauled the old one off. Price was what he said on the phone."
