Your local plumber in Santa Monica
Pacific Plumbing Team is a licensed plumbing contractor based on Venice Blvd, a few miles from Santa Monica. We handle everything from a slow kitchen drain in an Ocean Park bungalow to a sewer line replacement for a Wilshire Boulevard apartment building.
Santa Monica is a mix of 1920s–1950s homes, older multi-unit buildings and new construction, and each comes with its own plumbing quirks. Our technicians work in the city every week, so we know what to look for and how to get the job done cleanly – with permits pulled through the City of Santa Monica when the work requires them.
Plumbing problems we see most in Santa Monica
Coastal air, mature street trees and decades-old pipes are behind most of the calls we get from Santa Monica.
Tree roots in sewer laterals
Many Santa Monica homes still have original clay or cast-iron sewer laterals. Roots from big street and yard trees find the joints and cause repeat backups. We camera the line first, then clear it with hydro jetting or recommend a repair only if the pipe is actually damaged.
Hard water and water heater wear
Santa Monica water is on the hard side, so sediment builds up fast in tank water heaters and scale shortens their life. We flush, repair and replace tank and tankless heaters, including the seismic strapping and venting the code requires.
Old galvanized and cast-iron pipes
Pre-1960 homes and apartment buildings often still run on galvanized supply lines and cast-iron drains. Low pressure, rusty water and pinhole leaks are the usual signs. We can spot-repair or repipe with PEX or copper.
Leaks in condos and multi-unit buildings
In stacked units a small leak quickly becomes a neighbor’s ceiling stain. Our leak detection pinpoints the source without opening up more walls than necessary, and we coordinate with owners and HOAs.

Orlando came on short notice and completed the work quickly. Great work! Would recommend!
On time. Excellent communications. Fixed 2 toilets and 1 sink. Excellent work and quickly completed. He’s been here before and will be welcomed back when needed.
At my apartment building the main water shut off was broken. Art at Pacific Plumbing came out and replaced it. He also installed a pressure regulator.
They were easy to schedule the repair the plumer was knowledgable and explain everything i will defiantly recommend them
Came out in a hurry to help. Gave an honest opinion rooted in facts for a reasonable price. Highly recommend for honesty and reliability.
Julian came by the same day to fix my very clogged toilet, he brought a special tool and within a half an hour he completely fixed it, very professional and well done, I would highly recommend his company
I’ve used Pacific Plumbing for two separate projects. They were excellent with diagnosing my issues, communicating the solutions, and doing the work efficiently while updating me along the way. I highly recommend working with Pacific Plumbing for anything you need in your home.
I would absolutely recommend Pacific Plumbing Team! Orlando came & worked his magic. He was prompt with the appointment time, friendly & very professional. Hopefully, I won't need a plumber anytime soon, but if I do, I'll be calling Orlando! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Juliann did the good job for me, he fixed the water problem quickly. And he was polite and professional. I am so glad to get your company member to help ! Thank you !
Santa Monica plumbing FAQ
How fast can a plumber get to my home in Santa Monica?
Because our office is on Venice Blvd, we can usually be at a Santa Monica address the same day, and for emergencies often within a couple of hours. Call (800) 965-5508 and we will give you an arrival window.
Do I need a permit to replace a water heater in Santa Monica?
Yes. Water heater replacement in Santa Monica requires a permit and inspection. We pull the permit, install the heater to code with seismic straps and proper venting, and schedule the inspection for you.
Why does my sewer line keep backing up?
In Santa Monica the most common cause is tree roots growing into older clay or cast-iron laterals. Snaking only cuts a hole through the roots. A camera inspection shows the condition of the pipe so you can choose between hydro jetting, a spot repair or a trenchless replacement.
Do you work on apartment buildings and condos in Santa Monica?
Yes. We service multi-unit buildings, HOAs and property managers, including main line cleaning, shared sewer laterals, leak detection between units and water heater replacements.
