Palo Alto's unique plumbing challenges

About 119 nights a year below freezing, when uninsulated crawlspace lines give out

The oldest blocks in town run plumbing decades older than the newer builds toward Mechanicsville

First frost typically lands around October 30

Seasonal timing

February's 22 degree average low is the point where an old stack and the cold masonry around it stop moving together, which is what opens up a hub joint.

Common questions

How much does a plumber cost?

It depends on the job and how bad the problem is. That is why the first step is a phone call. Describe the problem and get your free estimate on the phone, with upfront pricing.

Will I talk to a real person?

Yes, you will.

Do I need to fill out a form?

No forms and no waiting on emailed quotes. One phone call is all it takes.

Can I get help at night or on a weekend?

We have plumbers ready to help families in the community 24/7, but moment-to-moment availability depends on demand. Call to find out how soon we can service your home.

Should I wait to call?

You already know that plumbing problems don't go away on their own. And waiting just increases the risks to your house. Plumbers see this hesitation all the time. Instead of regretting not calling earlier, just make that 2-minute call now and get your free estimate.

People also ask

What is the banging in the wall when the washer shuts off?

Water hammer, caused by a fast-closing valve with nowhere for the pressure spike to go. On old plumbing it works joints loose over time. An arrestor or a functioning air chamber is the usual answer.

What makes a toilet gurgle when the washer drains?

Air is being pulled through the trap because the vent or the stack can't clear fast enough. On an older iron system that usually points to restriction rather than a design fault. It's worth looking at before the line backs up entirely.

How long does a cast iron drain stack last?

Usually somewhere between 50 and 80 years, though water chemistry and the pitch of the line matter as much as the calendar does. Rust builds inward, so the pipe narrows well before it leaks. A camera inspection is what tells you where a given stack actually stands.
