Frequently Asked Questions

How fast can you respond to a plumbing emergency in Union City?

We can handle most emergencies in Union City and the Tri-City the same day, often within a couple of hours. 

 

Burst pipes, overflowing toilets, gas leaks, and water heater failures get our immediate attention because the longer they sit, the more water damage and structural cost you face. 

 

When you call, you’ll get a real person on the line, a realistic ETA, and we start triaging the problem before we even arrive. 

 

At Plumbing Connection, our trucks stay stocked for the most common Tri-City repairs, so we’re not waiting on a parts run when minutes matter.

Yes, we hold both the C36 plumbing and C42 sanitation contractor licenses from the Contractors State License Board, plus full liability insurance and workers’ comp. 

 

We always recommend verifying any plumber’s license status on the CSLB website before they start work, because hiring unlicensed risks non-permitted work, voided home insurance after a leak, and personal liability if someone is injured on your property. 

 

Our license numbers are listed on every estimate and invoice, so you can confirm everything before we touch a wrench. With us, every job is permitted, inspected, and fully covered.

Yes, in most Tri-City homes we can repipe with minimal wall damage by routing new pipes through attics, crawl spaces, and closets, then opening only small sections where connections are needed. 

 

We typically use PEX because it bends around obstacles that rigid copper can’t, which means fewer access cuts and a cleaner reinstall. 

 

After pressure testing, we patch and texture the small openings so they’re ready for paint, usually within a day or two. 

 

At Plumbing Connection, we plan every repipe with wall preservation in mind from the first walkthrough, so you know exactly what’s getting opened before any work starts.

Standard drain cleaning uses a mechanical snake to break through a clog and restore basic flow, which works well for soft blockages and isolated clogs. 

 

Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water, between 1,500 and 4,000 PSI, to scour the entire pipe interior and clear grease, scale, roots, and buildup that a snake leaves behind. 

 

At Plumbing Connection, we recommend hydro jetting for recurring clogs, restaurant grease lines, and main sewer maintenance, because it leaves the line flowing like new and keeps it clear longer. 

 

We run a video inspection before and after every hydro jet to confirm the line is fully clear and to flag any pipe damage that needs follow-up.

Yes, multi-unit and rental properties are a regular part of our work across the Tri-City. 

 

At Plumbing Connection, we coordinate directly with tenants for access, handle the common rental issues like recurring backups, water heater turnover, and repipes between tenancies, and provide invoices formatted for property accounting. 

 

We give property managers fast response, clear written documentation, and predictable pricing across units, so reporting to owners and budgeting stays clean. 

 

With us, you get one point of contact for every property in your portfolio.
