Professional Plumbing Inspections in Grass Valley, CA

Golden State Plumbing and Drain provides detailed, professional plumbing inspections in Grass Valley and the surrounding Nevada County area. Whether you’re buying a home, remodeling, or getting ready to list your property, we make sure your plumbing system is safe, up to code, and functioning properly.

Most homeowners don’t think about their plumbing system until there’s a problem — like a dripping faucet, clogged drain, or toilet that won’t flush properly. Unfortunately, that usually means higher repair costs and wasted water.

Our licensed plumbers are trained to inspect your entire plumbing system — including gas lines, water heaters, fixtures, and drainage — with a sharp eye for early signs of wear, damage, or inefficiency.

I am a local general contractor that focuses mostly on remodels and additions… I have had Matt at Golden State Plumbing do a few projects for me over the years and would highly recommend him and his crew… He communicates well and is there when he says he’s gonna be there… and does great work…

Matt at Golden State Plumbing has helped us with several jobs this year and the experiences have been consistently outstanding. He is professional, fair in price, respectful of our home and it’s clear he is experienced with what he does. He just recently helped us with switching old copper pipes out from our well to our main water line and a second home on our property. He found several leaks and took care of them for us.

We have called Golden State Plumbing and Drain for several plumbing jobs in and around our home. From major pipe repairs to installing a water softener underneath our kitchen sink and a Moen leak detector. Matt and his team does excellent and efficient work. He is highly experienced and qualified to repair any plumbing issues we may have. I highly recommend his services. Bill and April

I sent Matt down to my dark, damp, sloped basement, and was blown away by how well he got all our leaks - both obvious and hidden - fixed in a timely manner. I have had them out a couple of times as they're now our no-pressure, easy to work with go-to plumbing service.
