Professional water line repair for main supply lines and service connections. We diagnose breaks, corrosion, and leaks in your water line, then perform durable repairs or full replacements using quality materials.
Old or failed water lines reduce pressure, waste water, and risk property damage. Our plumbers replace deteriorated supply lines and service connections with modern materials built to last for decades.
Sewer line repair for cracked, collapsed, root-infiltrated, and offset pipes. We use camera inspection to diagnose the problem and recommend spot repairs, pipe lining, or full replacement as appropriate.
Professional gas line repair performed by licensed plumbers who understand gas system safety. We find the leak, repair or replace the damaged section, and pressure test the line before restoring gas service.
Thorough drain cleaning that goes beyond surface blockages. We use video inspection and high-pressure water jetting to clear obstructions completely, leaving your drains flowing freely and reducing future buildup.
Accurate gas leak detection before small leaks become emergencies. We test your entire gas system using professional detection equipment and pressure gauges, identify any leaks, and perform safe code-compliant repairs.
Fast burst pipe repair for residential and commercial properties. We diagnose the cause, replace the failed pipe section, and pressure test the repair to confirm your system is fully restored before we leave.
Expert shower repair for leaking shower pans, dripping valves, weak pressure, faulty cartridges, and drain clogs. We diagnose and fix shower problems at the source, restoring full function quickly.
Slab leaks are hidden under your concrete foundation and can cause thousands in damage if left untreated. Our licensed plumbers locate and repair slab leaks quickly with minimal disruption to your home.
Advanced leak detection using thermal imaging, electronic sensors, and pressure testing to find hidden leaks in walls, floors, and underground. Accurate detection prevents costly water damage and unnecessary demolition.

Common questions about plumbing services in San Francisco, CA.
Chemical drain cleaners can damage older pipes in San Francisco homes, especially PVC, brass, or aging galvanized plumbing. The caustic chemicals can eat through pipe walls over time and are hazardous if they splash on skin or eyes. A professional drain cleaning by Phoenician Plumbing is safer, more effective, and prevents pipe damage — costing less in the long run.
Burst pipes, gas leaks, sewer backups, and flooding all require immediate emergency plumbing response in San Francisco. A burst pipe can release hundreds of gallons per hour, and gas leaks pose fire and explosion risks. Phoenician Plumbing provides 24/7 emergency plumbing service throughout San Francisco and surrounding California communities.
To prevent frozen pipes in San Francisco, insulate exposed pipes in unheated areas like garages, crawl spaces, and attics. Keep cabinet doors under sinks open during cold snaps. Let faucets drip slightly during freezing temperatures. If a pipe does freeze, call Phoenician Plumbing immediately rather than attempting to thaw it yourself to avoid a burst.
Your main water shutoff valve in San Francisco is typically located near the water meter, near the front foundation, or in the basement or utility room. Turn the valve clockwise to close it. If you cannot find your shutoff or it is stuck, call Phoenician Plumbing immediately — our emergency crew can help locate and operate the valve to stop water damage.
When hiring a plumber in San Francisco, always verify their CA license and insurance. A licensed plumber must pass state examinations and carry liability coverage that protects your property. Phoenician Plumbing employs licensed, background-checked plumbers throughout California — call (855) 764-0636 to schedule service or get a free estimate.
Most tank water heaters last 8 to 12 years. Consider replacement when your unit is over 10 years old, produces rusty or discolored water, makes rumbling or popping noises, or requires frequent repairs. Phoenician Plumbing offers free water heater assessments to help San Francisco homeowners decide between repair and replacement.
Real reviews from homeowners we have served across the country.
"Had them install a tankless water heater to replace our old tank unit. The plumber was very knowledgeable about different brands and helped us pick the right size. Installation was clean and professional."
"Had an under-slab water line burst. They came out that day, capped off the bad line and restored water to the rest of the house, then rerouted the water line through the attic with minimal drywall damage. Very clean, respectful, knowledgeable, and professional. Only plumber I will ever call."
"This company is amazing! Called them around 4pm and the next day they were at my house at 8:30am like they said. Helped detect my problem and fix the issue quickly without spending a fortune. They will be my go to plumber from now on."
