Residential Properties
Pocket-Greenhaven is dominated by single-family slab homes from the 1970s and 1980s, from ranch-style plans to larger two-story customs, alongside condos and gated communities from the later building boom. In houses of this age the original copper supply lines can develop pinhole leaks and slab leaks as the pipe and fittings weather underground. We focus on slab leak detection that pins the location before we open concrete, water heater replacement, and the general repairs this consistent housing stock keeps needing, and we trace where a shared line runs when the work is in a condo or attached home.
Commercial & Multifamily
Shopping centers and offices along Greenhaven Drive and Florin Road serve the surrounding neighborhoods and need their plumbing dependable through the day. We maintain their restrooms, drains, and water heaters and schedule around business hours so local retail and services stay open for residents.

Frequently Asked Questions
On these 1970s and 80s riverside homes the copper runs under the slab, so a leak shows as a warm spot on the floor, a water bill that climbed for no clear reason, or the sound of water running while every fixture is off. We fix the exact location under the slab before recommending how to repair it, so no concrete comes up on a guess.
It is worth watching. Copper from the 1970s and 1980s can develop pinhole leaks after decades in the ground and walls. We inspect the lines, repair the affected sections, and talk through repiping if the leaks start recurring in more than one spot.
With Sacramento's hard water, many tanks give you around a decade before sediment and corrosion catch up with them. If yours is older or already leaking, we assess it and install a replacement sized to your home.
Often yes. Depending on where the leak is and the condition of the line, we can repair that section, reroute it to avoid opening more slab, or discuss broader options. We explain the trade-offs so you can weigh cost against how long the fix will last.
Yes. Many of these attached and gated homes share supply and drain lines, so we trace the problem back to the right run and isolate our work. Tell us your community and we will plan the access before we arrive.
