Pleasant Hill is known for its Eichler homes (mid-century modern with atriums and radiant floor heating). Those in-floor copper loops corrode over time. We can pressure-test each loop, repair leaks from above (through the slab), or install a new forced-air heater if the system is beyond repair.
Homes in the Gregory Gardens and Poppy Hills areas have original 1950s copper slabs. We use electronic leak detection to find under-slab leaks without jackhammering the entire house.
For the townhouses near Pleasant Hill BART, we work with HOA boards to perform maintenance on common-area water heaters, backflow preventers, and fire line systems.
Flat-rate pricing means you know the cost before we start. No “time and material” anxiety. We also offer after-hours appointments at no extra charge for customers who work 9-5.
We pressurize each radiant loop with air and listen for pressure drop. Identify exact leaking loop within 1 hour.
We inject two-part epoxy into the leaking slab pipe from an accessible cleanout — seals pinhole leaks without breaking concrete.
We bid on annual contracts for water heater inspections, fire line backflow testing, and sewer camera surveys — ask for group rates.
Appointments between 6-9 PM weekdays are billed at same day rate — no $150 “evening fee.” We respect your schedule.
Likely a stuck zone valve or air in that loop. We can diagnose by feeling manifold temperatures and purging air. Leaks usually cause uniformly low pressure, not a single cold zone.
Yes — Contra Costa County requires a permit. We pull it and schedule the inspection. Unpermitted heaters can be flagged during home sale.
Zero — if we cannot locate a leak after 2 hours of testing (listening disc, thermal, gas tracer), there is no charge. We will advise on next steps.
Yes — but we must check venting clearances and gas line size. Many Pleasant Hill condos have undersized 1/2-inch gas lines. We can upsize or install a smaller 140k BTU unit that works.
Yes — that’s a sign of a partial sewer line clog or poor venting. The washing machine’s rush of water pushes air up through the sink trap. We can camera the line to find the partial blockage.
