I’ve recently moved into an older house in Emeryville, and I think I might be dealing with some plumbing issues behind the walls, occasional dripping sounds and inconsistent water pressure.

Before I start opening things up, I wanted to ask:
Has anyone here worked with a plumber in Emeryville who’s good with older homes or understands the local building quirks?

I’m trying to avoid a big repair bill later, so I’d appreciate any tips, what to look for, how to know when it’s time to call a professional, or even small maintenance habits that help keep the system healthy.

Would love to hear your experiences!
