Plumbing for Castro Valley Homes
We're based in Hayward, right next door, so Castro Valley is a short drive for us. Most calls start with a symptom: a leak you can't find, pressure that dropped, a drain that keeps backing up. We find the actual cause, show you what we found, then fix it. When we camera a line, you get the video.
A lot of Castro Valley houses have some age on them. The County's Castro Valley General Plan counted about 78 percent of homes as built before 1980. If the original supply pipe is leaking in more than one spot, a repipe can make more sense than another patch. We'll tell you which one fits.
Remodeling a kitchen or bath? We do the remodel plumbing: moving lines, roughing in and setting the new fixtures, with the permit handled.
We work across Castro Valley, from the Central Business District and Greenridge to Columbia, Palomares Hills and Five Canyons.

Sewer, Water and Permits in Castro Valley
CVSan sewer laterals
Most of Castro Valley is on Castro Valley Sanitary District (CVSan) sewer. CVSan puts the private sewer lateral, the pipe from your house to the public main, on the owner to maintain, repair and replace.
Selling? Since July 1, 2019, CVSan requires a Sewer Lateral Inspection Exemption Certificate before close of escrow. Repair work needs a CVSan sewer repair permit, and we pull it for the work we do.
Some parts of Castro Valley are on Oro Loma Sanitary District sewer instead, which has its own rules. We check which district serves your address before we quote.
Water and gas
Castro Valley gets its water from EBMUD and its gas from PG&E. We're PG&E OQ qualified for gas and electrical work.
Permits
Castro Valley is unincorporated, so building and plumbing permits come from Alameda County Public Works at 399 Elmhurst Street in Hayward, through the Alameda County Permit Portal. We handle the permit and the inspections for the work we're hired to do.
If the sewer side is the problem, see our sewer line services.
