Plumber in Old Town Temecula

Historic buildings, busy kitchens and very little room to work.

Old Town is where Temecula started. The Magee Store opened the first inland Southern California post office here in 1859, and Front Street still mixes century-old storefronts with newer mixed-use buildings, restaurants, breweries and tasting rooms.

That mix makes plumbing here unlike the tract neighborhoods east of I-15: older pipe in some buildings, grease-heavy kitchen lines in most, and tight weekend schedules for everyone.

Plumbing work in Old Town Temecula, Temecula area

Plumbing in a district built over 150 years

Buildings in Old Town range from late-1800s structures to recent construction around the Civic Center on Main Street. Some older buildings have been replumbed several times, so it is common to find copper, galvanized remnants, ABS and PVC in one structure. Before quoting any repair here we look at what is actually in the wall.

Most of our Old Town work is commercial: restaurant drain lines, grease interceptors, restroom fixtures for weekend crowds, commercial water heaters and annual backflow tests. Residential calls come from the older homes and newer condos on the edges of the district.

Murrieta Creek runs along the west side of Old Town. Low spots near the creek are where drainage and sump questions come up during big winter storms.

Restaurant owners: we schedule kitchen line jetting before opening or after close so Friday and Saturday service is not interrupted.
