Know your Modesto house

The Modesto Arch, dedicated in 1912, reads Water, Wealth, Contentment, Health. Hard water is common and builds scale in water heaters.

The city's Jennings Road plant treats nearly 15 million gallons of wastewater a day to recycled water standards. Partial remodels often mean new fixtures sitting on old drain lines, and the old section is usually where trouble begins.

Dry years mean watering limits and a lot of interest in low-flow fixtures. Hard water is also common, and mineral scale can shorten the life of valves and faucets. In 2025, the irrigation district supplied about 59 percent of the city's drinking water, with groundwater making up the rest.

Problems people call about

Here is what Modesto callers mention most:

  • Running toilet
  • Low water pressure
  • Water stains on a ceiling or wall

How the connection works

  1. Call or use the form and describe the problem.
  2. We match you with an independent plumber serving Modesto.
  3. If the timing and quote work for you, they schedule the job.

Who handles what in Modesto

California licenses plumbing contractors through the Contractors State License Board, which has an online license check. If a leak is on the street side of the meter, call the City of Modesto first, since that section usually belongs to the utility. Leaks on your side are typically the owner's job.

What to have ready

Take a photo of the model label on the water heater, toilet or faucet if you can find one.

Quick answers

Why does my water smell like rotten eggs?

If it is only the hot water, the water heater's anode rod is a common cause. If cold water smells too, call the water utility and ask a plumber to check the lines.

Which parts of Modesto can you help with?

Our network reaches Village One, La Loma, Airport District and Del Rio and the rest of Modesto (95350, 95351, 95354, 95355, 95356). Whether a pro can come depends on their schedule, and we will let you know quickly either way.

Can I replace a faucet myself?

Many people do. If the shutoff valves under the sink are stuck or leaking, though, that is a good time to bring in a plumber.

Why is my water pressure low?

It can be a clogged aerator, a partly closed valve, a failing pressure regulator or old pipes narrowed by scale. If the whole house is low, check with your neighbors and the water utility first.

We are a referral service, so the pro you speak with sets the schedule and the price. Ask your questions before you agree to anything.
