Occidental Plumbing for Older West County Homes
Occidental is a little redwood town on the Bohemian Highway, and a lot of its homes are older cottages and cabins tucked into the hills and trees. Many were built long before modern plumbing codes and have been added onto bit by bit. Some sit on steep lots or are served by wells or small water systems. We drive out from our shop in Cotati, show up when we say, explain the problem in plain English, give you the price before work starts and clean up before we leave.
Whether it's a water heater in a shed that finally quit, a frozen-up shutoff valve, or a leak somewhere under the floor, we find the cause and give you honest options. Text us a photo, book online, or ask about financing for larger jobs like a water heater replacement or new water line.
What We See in Occidental Homes
Old cottages and cabins
Many Occidental homes started as small cottages or summer cabins. We often find old galvanized pipe that's rusting from the inside, valves that won't close, and plumbing that's been patched by several owners. We replace corroded sections and supply lines and add shutoffs where they're missing.
Water heaters in sheds and crawl spaces
On small or steep lots, water heaters often live in a shed, on a porch or under the house. Damp redwood country is hard on them. We repair or replace them — tank or tankless — and make sure the strapping, venting and connections are done right.
Steep lots and long water lines
Homes up the hills can have long water lines running from the meter, well or tank down to the house. Leaks on those lines can be hard to find. We locate the problem, repair the section or replace the line, and can add a smart water shutoff to catch the next leak early.
Occidental Areas We Serve
Downtown Occidental along the Bohemian Highway, homes up Coleman Valley Road and Occidental Road, Joy Road and Graton Road toward Freestone and Graton, plus nearby Camp Meeker. We serve all ZIP codes and neighborhoods in Occidental, including 95465, from downtown to the surrounding hills and redwood roads.

Occidental Plumbing FAQ
Do you offer same-day plumbing service in Occidental?
Yes, same-day service is often available in Occidental, depending on the day's schedule, and we take emergency calls. Call or text (707) 596-3095.
My Occidental cottage still has old galvanized pipe. Should I replace it?
Galvanized pipe rusts from the inside, which lowers water pressure and eventually causes leaks. If you have low pressure, rusty water or repeat leaks, we can replace the worst sections first or repipe the house over time.

Yes. We serve Camp Meeker, Graton, Monte Rio, Sebastopol and the rest of West County, along with Occidental.
