Company History

Doug Hammer founded the business in 1980 focused on sewer and septic construction. Pumping became a core service soon after, and the brand earned a local reputation for honest, practical work. In 2005 Doug passed the business to brothers Steve and Don Holmes. Since then, Hammer expanded into all plumbing trades while keeping its pumping roots.

Hammer holds C42 and C36 state contractor licenses and uses video inspection and modern tools to diagnose jobs faster and reduce repeat visits.

Leadership

Steve and his brother Don have run Hammer since 2005. Both live and work in the Coachella Valley and are familiar with desert homes, irrigation needs, and heavy summer demand on water systems. Their background blends field experience with a hands-on approach to training technicians.
