Water Lines For Refrigerator/Water Line For Fridge

March 24, 2021 by BrianCooke

If you need a plumber for water lines for refrigerator/water line for fridge, Marin Plumbing is your best option.

Why do you need Marin’s best Plumber?  Because water lines for refrigerators notoriously leak and your time and home are valuable. Why risk a disaster with your refrigerator/ice maker installation with any less than a licensed plumber with over 33 years of experience installing hundreds of them.

Installation of refrigerator water lines is among my most-requested standard plumbing services.  In most cases, I can install or connect a new refrigerator water supply line farily easily. This is especially true if there is an existing water line near the refrigerator. I’ll help you choose between flexible plastic tubing and more durable copper tubing. I’ll flush the existing line make the connection securely and test it thoroughly before I leave.

While I usually use stainless steel braided flex line, sometimes with longer waterlines copper tubing is used. I always leave enough length on the water line to ensure that someone can pull the fridge or freezer unit away from the wall in order to clean or make repairs when needed. We flush the water line to make sure there is no sediment or air trapped in the line, which could cause a leak behind your fridge.

Sometimes, in older homes or if you are putting a fridge in a new location, I’ll need to figure out the best way to run a new water line to the refrigerator. Over the year’s I’ve installed 100’s of refrigerator water lines. I’m extremely comfortable with any kitchen configuration, wherever your fridge is located in your home,  I can still successfully run a water line to it, possibly going behind cabinets to connect to the sink, perhaps through the walls, attic, crawlspace, or under a deck or patio (for an outdoor kitchen).

Many homeowners don’t know that refrigerators cause more water damage than any other appliance, Perhaps it has to do with the fact that they are most-likely to be installed by non-professionals. Even the installers who deliver the appliance have almost no plumbing training.

Call or text me at 415-883-1243 and I’ll get right back to you.

Washing Machine Plumber Laundry Room Plumbing

March 24, 2021 by BrianCooke

Need a washing machine plumber? Laundry room plumbing? Why would you even hire a plumber for washing machine or laundry room issues?

Yes, I am the washing machine plumber you’re looking for

Did you know that washing machines are among the top appliances that can cause water damage in your home? That’s why I recommend regular inspection of laundry room plumbing including cold and hot water supply hoses, valves, and proper drainage. I include all these items whenever I do a preventative maintenance inspection

When big-box stores offer cheap installation why hire a plumber? Because you never know who you are going to get and you often have to wait until the installer is in your area.

Laundry room plumbing installation

Washing machine installation is more complicated than it seems. A flexible supply hose behind the unit can come loose or spring a leak causing catastrophic damage to your home. Combine that with electricity and you’ve got the potential for some serious problems.

I get why people have their washing machines installed by the vendor. It’s cheaper. There is no way a licensed plumber (especially one like me with over 33 years of experience) can match the price of an appliance installer.

My clients tend to be people who want things done right. Who don’t have the time to deal with avoidable plumbing issues and who have an outsized investment in their home. Especially in homes with an upstairs laundry room.

Why you want ME to install or washing machine

Washing Machine Plumber

I have been a plumber installing washing machines and doing laundry room plumbing in Marin for over three decades. While many construction contractors, handymen and even homeowners can connect a fixture to a water line and drainpipe, often it’s more complicated than that. Many homes in Marin and Sonoma county have older pipes, fittings and fixtures. Making sure the new fixtures work perfectly with the older pipes without metal corrosion, pressure or drainage is well beyond simply connecting the fixture. An experienced plumber can save you from a disaster.

New Laundry Room Plumbing Location

Marin homeowners tend to do a lot of renovation sometimes this means Installing a laundry room in a new location. This requires water lines and waste lines – the washing machine plumbing. As well as the electrical connections. It also requires a permit and inspection.

Shower Faucet Replacement | Bathtub Installer | Shower Plumber

March 10, 2021 by BrianCooke

Need a shower faucet replacement? A bathtub installer? A shower plumber? These days some of these basic plumbing fixtures have become more sophisticated and luxurious.

Yes, I am the shower plumber you’re looking for

Years ago, clients only called me for a shower faucet replacement when the shower wasn’t working. These days, they look for a shower plumber to add luxury to their existing shower.

Rainfall showerheads, body jets, and thermostatic valves are not uncommon. But, most folks looking for a shower plumber just need a shower faucet replacement cartridge to fix problems like leaky showers or broken valves.

When it comes to showers and tubs, I have worked on or replaced just about every shower faucet and fixture out there.

I am also your bathtub installer and bathtub repair plumber

Like showers, many clients are removing their standard bathtub and upgrading to a more luxurious experience.

Freestanding tubs are back — in a big way. I have also installed bathtubs in remodels. When it comes to new bathtub installation, do yourself a favor and hire a professional plumber (a bathtub installer) who knows plumbing from start to finish to complete the bathtub installation properly. Waste overflow, drain assemblies, and valve cartridges can be tricky and the last thing you need is problems with your newly installed bathtub.

Water Line Repair | Pipe Repair and Replacement

February 17, 2021 by BrianCooke

Water line installation

If you need water line repair or replacement with the least disruption, best materials and most professional service in Marin County, I’m your guy!

Whether it is the main water line to your home or a pipe repair inside your house, MY 35 years of experience as a plumber will improve YOUR experience as a customer.

Marin Plumbing for Water Line & Pipe Repair.

I’ve repaired and replaced water lines and pipes throughout Marin and Sonoma County. Here, we have a wide variety of older and newer plumbing materials to deal with. And many Marin homeowners value and demand only the best materials rather than the cheapest “band-aid” fix. 

Replacing pipes is always a process of joining existing materials (made from a variety of metals or plastics) to others. Often that means combining older and newer materials and knowing what works well together and what does not. 

Some materials can be joined for decades and others are metallurgic no-no’s that can corrode and start leaking in just a few years.

It takes experience in a wide variety of situations to know what lasts and what doesn’t.

About Me

I am Brian Cooke, I started Marin Plumbing in 1991 and was a plumber for several years before that. When you call Marin Plumbing you will always get me. That’s how I can guarantee top levels of service. There aren’t a lot of plumbers with over 33 years of experience.  That’s why customer reviews rank me as Marin’s Best Plumber

I offer the highest professional standards in terms of reliability, speed, cleanliness (both personal appearance and equipment), as well as a reputation for clear and thorough communication about your plumbing issues and the range of options for fixing them.

For instance, in Marin County, many customers prefer to use copper pipes. Copper is great. Except when it is joined to other materials such as galvanized. That’s why I always install a dielectric union such as brass between the two metals.

Premium Plumbing Services

Marin Plumbing a premium plumbing service. Marin County customers expect and deserve the most experienced, professional, accurate, and cleanest plumber you can find.

If you value a job done right, the first time, I am the plumber for you. I may not be the cheapest option but I am personable, communicative, and use my years of experience to ensure that your plumbing issue is fixed once and for all. Plus I’m the plumber you won’t mind having in your home or place of business.
