My dealings with the John Owens Company have been outstanding in all aspects; always punctual, excellent communication, and product service. I highly recommend them
Joan Porter
Was so impressed with the service I got! Tim figured out quickly why my radiant heat was not working and fixed it. He explained everything to me and answered all my questions. The office communicated his arrival time with updates, so that I could keep working until he arrived.
Constance Riedinger
From start to finish, working with John Owens is always a pleasure. Scheduling is easy and every technician we have worked with has been honest, reliable, and professional. Today, they sent Tim to help me with our dated boiler system. He was extremely knowledgeable and beyond helpful. Thank you, Tim!

Marin County is where you’ll find nearly 2,000 Eichler homes. These mid-century modern homes built by developer Joseph Eichler between 1949 and 1966 are seeing a resurgent of interest among home buyers and real estate developers. Some distinct features of an Eichler home are the open floor plan, floor-to-ceiling windows, and radiant heating. However, since these homes were built decades ago, many Eichler homes need major renovations, especially with the plumbing, heating, and air conditioning systems, to make them more functional, comfortable, and energy-efficient by today’s standards.
Our local company understands your need to preserve and protect your Eichler home. With us as your on-call home service contractor, you can have peace of mind knowing we will always treat your home with the utmost care and respect.
Some problems Eichler homes can have that we can assist with include insulation (piping, slab edge, attic), gas and water leak detection and repair, electric heat pump or water heater installations, Home Energy Assessments, energy upgrade rebates, and more!
Some great solutions that can improve your Eichler home’s efficiency include: insulation for the walls, pipes, and concrete slab to prevent energy loss; window films for the large windows that can reduce heat loss; upgrading to solar in order to offset utility bills; and replacing gas appliances with systems such as electric heat pumps and heat pump water heaters.
Eichler homes are usually heated through a radiant system. This uses a boiler unit that heats water until it turns into steam. This steam is then sent through a series of pipes in the floor in order to heat the space of the house. Certain boilers can also be used as water heaters, sending the water it heats to your faucets and hot water appliances.

We are trusted members of the Eichler Network and have been working on Eichler homes since 1986, so we have the advantage of knowing the various restoration and renovation jobs these mid-century modern homes require.
