Residential Plumbing in the South Bay
From a dripping faucet to a whole-house remodel, tell us what’s going on and we’ll follow up about an estimate.
Schulze Plumbing Inc. handles residential plumbing for houses, condos, and small multi-unit buildings across the South Bay / Los Angeles County area. Homeowners usually call because something is leaking, backing up, not heating, or because a remodel needs the pipes behind the walls done correctly the first time.
Beach-city and Peninsula homes often mix original galvanized or copper with later add-ons. That shows up as low pressure in one bathroom, a hose bib that weeps salt air corrosion, or a kitchen remodel that outgrows the existing shutoffs. Inland Torrance, Lomita, Carson, and Hawthorne houses more often need water-heater, sewer-lateral, and slab-era supply work.
This category covers day-to-day service and the residential pieces of new work: repairs, rough and finish plumbing, fixtures, water mains, pressure regulators, leak finding, kitchens, laundry rooms, and outdoor hose bibs. Larger repipes, sewer replacements, gas piping, and water heaters have their own pages so you can go straight to that scope.
Who this is for
- Homeowners who need a repair, fixture swap, or leak found
- Anyone remodeling a kitchen, bath, or laundry room
- Property owners preparing a house for sale, rental turnover, or an ADU
- Households dealing with low pressure, a failed water main, or outdoor plumbing
Common symptoms
- Drips, stains, or a meter that spins when nothing is on
- A toilet, sink, shower, or hose bib that will not shut off or fill correctly
- A remodel that needs new supply, drain, or vent lines
- Low pressure at one fixture or throughout the house
What this work involves
- Diagnosing the fixture, branch, or main actually causing the problem
- Repairing or replacing the approved scope — not a menu of add-ons you did not ask for
- Coordinating rough and finish plumbing when a remodel is in progress
- Confirming South Bay coverage from your ZIP and discussing access (slab, crawlspace, or walls)

Process
- Share the rooms involved, what you see or hear, and whether this is a repair or a remodel, plus your ZIP code so we can confirm South Bay coverage.
- We follow up to confirm access, scope, and whether permits or other trades may be involved.
- You receive an estimate for the work you approve. We do not publish prices on this page.
- After you approve, we schedule the job.
FAQ
- Do you only work on single-family houses?
- No. Residential plumbing here includes houses, condos, and small multi-unit buildings. Shared stacks and HOA rules can change the approach, so mention that when you request an estimate.
- Can you handle both the repair and the remodel plumbing?
- Yes. We do service calls and remodel/new-construction plumbing. Share whether walls are open, who is building, and which fixtures you already purchased.
- Do I need a whole-house repipe if one pipe failed?
- Not always. One leak can be a local repair. Repeated pinholes, discolored water, or low pressure everywhere can point to a larger piping conversation — we separate that on the repiping pages.
- Are you open if something fails at night?
- Google lists us as open 24 hours. That is not a promised arrival time. Mark the request urgent or call and we will follow up.
