San Anselmo plumbing repair for faucets, leaking pipes and low water pressure, with pipe replacement when a repair will not hold.
San Anselmo homeowners often call us about a few things: a faucet that will not quit dripping, a pipe leak, or water pressure that is not what it used to be. We handle all three. We start with a look at the plumbing, tell you what we find, and explain the repair. Marin towns like San Anselmo are served from our San Rafael office.
John Owens Services has worked in Marin since 1986. We prefer to repair and maintain what you already have. But some pipes and fixtures reach the end of the road. When that happens, we talk about pipe replacement and new fixtures, including shower valves, toilets, garbage disposals and faucets, and give you a free estimate on the work. Financing is available.
For a drain backup or sewer problem, see our sewer and drain service. For hot water, we also work on water heaters. If something urgent comes up, call us and tell us what is happening, and we will help you plan the next step.
Maintain first, repair when needed, replace last. That order saves you money and keeps good equipment in service.
The cost depends on the faucet and what has worn out. We look at it first, then give you the price before work starts. If replacing makes more sense than repairing, we tell you and give you a free estimate on the new faucet.
This can come from blockages in the fixtures, a hidden leak, or a valve that has not opened all the way. We check each one and explain what we find before we recommend a repair, so you can decide with the full picture.
Sometimes a section can be repaired. If the pipe is corroded or keeps leaking in new places, replacement may be the better choice. We examine the line and give you both options in plain terms, with a free estimate on any replacement.
Permits are typically required for water heater installations. John Owens Services takes care of the permit process when you hire us for the job, so you do not have to chase paperwork or wonder whether the work is properly signed off.
A sewage smell can warn of a backup in your pipes. Call a plumber promptly so the line can be inspected and the cause found. We explain what we see and recommend a fix, and our sewer and drain team can clear the line if needed.
Yes, call us right away for a burst pipe, a major leak, no water or a sewage backup. Shut off the main water valve first if you can. Our San Rafael office answers Monday through Friday, 7:30 AM to 5:30 PM, and fits urgent calls in the same day whenever the schedule allows. We will tell you honestly when a plumber can get there.
