About B & B Plumbing in Truckee, CA

Copper corrosion is often caused by our local water's pH and mineral content. We offer thorough plumbing inspections to identify early signs of pitting and corrosion. If caught early, we can often repair the affected section. For more widespread issues, our plumbing installation or replacement service uses modern, corrosion-resistant materials like PEX or specially treated copper to ensure a durable, long-term solution for your home.
