Can you replace my faucet completely?

Yes — if you have existing shut-off valves under the sink that work and the drain isn't being relocated, a faucet swap is a standard minor repair. I install your new faucet and connect it to existing supply lines.

My toilet runs constantly — is that a simple fix?

Usually yes. A running toilet is most often a worn flapper or a misadjusted fill valve, both inexpensive parts and typically a quick repair.

What if I have an older home with corroded shut-off valves?

If the shut-off valves under a sink won't close, I'll let you know before starting. Replacing valves that are soldered onto copper pipe is a job for a licensed plumber since the main supply must be shut off at the meter.

Minor Plumbing Repairs in Martinez & Contra Costa County

A dripping faucet wastes water around the clock, and a running toilet can waste a lot of it before you notice on the bill. I handle the small plumbing repairs that don't require opening walls or working on the main supply line: quick fixes that stop the waste and restore function.

When I'll Refer You to a Licensed Pro

Main water line work, water heater installation or repair, gas line work, drain line rerouting, and anything requiring opening walls or cutting into supply piping requires a licensed plumber. I work only at fixture level on existing supply connections.

Bay Bilt is not a licensed contractor. Work is limited to jobs under $1,000 (labor and materials). Insured.
