  1. 1

    You call or text

    We find the cause

    We diagnose before we fix. For drains and sewers that can mean a camera down the line, so you see it too.

    Natalye B., Oakland, on Yelp

    We explain the fix and what it costs before any work starts. No hidden fees.

    “Estimates were accurate and totally transparent.”
    Connie B., San Francisco, on Yelp
  4. 4

    We fix it and clean up

    Shoe covers on, work area cleaned, and everything tested before we leave.

Showers & bathtubs: questions people ask

Can you fix a dripping shower without opening the wall?

Often, yes. A drip usually comes from a worn cartridge, which we can reach through the handle. If the valve itself has failed, we explain what it takes and the price before any work starts.

Do you do the plumbing for a bathroom remodel?

Yes. New plumbing for remodels is one of our services, including new shower valves, bathtubs and showers.

Is the estimate free?

Yes. We look at the shower or tub, explain what it needs and give you the price before any work starts.

How fast can you get here?

It depends on where you are and what’s going on, but for emergencies we head out right away. Reviewers regularly mention the crew arriving within the hour.

Are you really open 24/7?

Yes. Call any time, including nights and weekends.

Will I know the price before you start?

Yes. We look at the problem, explain what’s going on, and give you a price before any work starts. Estimates are free.
