The plumbing your remodel deserves — behind the wall and in front of it.
Moving a kitchen sink, adding a bathroom, converting a tub to a walk-in shower — remodel plumbing is where planning pays. We work clean with your contractor or directly with you, from rough-in to the final fixture set.
Start with the symptom.
Relocating fixtures
Moving supply is straightforward; moving drains and vents is where experience matters. We’ll tell you early what your layout really costs in plumbing terms.
Adding a bathroom or laundry
Capacity questions first: drain routing, venting, water heater load. Answered on paper before anyone cuts.
Tub-to-shower conversions
The most popular bath upgrade in older Sonoma County homes — valve, drain and curb details decide how good it is in year five.
Light-commercial build-outs
Salons, restrooms, break rooms — we’ve plumbed them. Code, ADA and health-department details handled.
What a remodel reveals
Open walls are the cheapest moment you’ll ever have to fix old plumbing. If your remodel exposes galvanized supply, cast-iron drains or 1970s valves, upgrading them while the wall is open costs a fraction of opening the wall again later. We’ll give you a straight recommendation on what’s worth doing now versus what can honestly wait.
How we diagnose it
We review plans before demolition, flag the plumbing implications of the layout, and coordinate rough-in with your schedule. Everything is pressure-tested before it’s closed up, and inspections are part of the plan, not a surprise.
Repair or replace — our honest rule
Our bias in a remodel: do the invisible work while it’s cheap. New valves, proper venting, and modern supply in any opened wall — and we’ll tell you when your existing plumbing is genuinely fine to keep.
From our job sites, not a stock library.
Questions homeowners actually ask
Do you work with general contractors?
Yes — we’re comfortable as the plumbing sub on a GC-run job or working directly for the homeowner on plumbing-led projects. Either way you get the same documentation, permits and inspection-ready work.
Can my bathroom addition tie into the existing sewer line?
Usually — the questions are the line’s condition, depth and slope at the tie-in point. A camera inspection answers all three before the plans are final, which is exactly when you want the answer.
When should the plumber get involved in a remodel?
At the design stage, before finishes are picked. Ten minutes over the layout can save a drain reroute — the plumbing cost difference between two sink positions can be dramatic, and it’s free information early.
