Kitchen & Bath Remodel Plumbing

What we do on a remodel

• Design input — before walls open, telling you what's straightforward and what's expensive. Moving a toilet three feet is a different job than moving a sink three feet.
• Demo and cap-off — safely isolating and capping so the rest of the house keeps working
• Rough-in — supply and DWV to the new layout, sized and vented correctly, ready for inspection
• Shower pans and drains — including linear drains and curbless assemblies
• Tub and shower valve setting — at the correct depth for your finished wall
• Gas runs for ranges and cooktops
• Trim-out — fixtures set, connected, tested, and cleaned up
• Permits and inspections — coordinated with your GC or handled directly

Additions and ADUs

The Central Coast has seen a lot of ADU activity, and the plumbing questions come up every time: can the existing service handle another unit, where does the new lateral tie in, does the water heater get shared or separate, and what does the jurisdiction require for metering. We work through all of it, and we've dealt with the local building departments enough to know what they'll want to see.

On additions, the two things worth getting right early are drain slope and venting. Both are far cheaper to plan than to correct after framing.

Working with your contractor

We're comfortable as a sub on a GC's job or as the plumber a homeowner brings in directly on an owner-builder project. Either way, what you get is a plumber who shows up on the day he said, communicates when something changes, and doesn't leave your project waiting.

General contractors and designers on the Central Coast: if you need a plumbing sub who answers the phone and hits schedule, let's talk.
