Plumber in Folsom, CA
Plumbing for every era of Folsom, from Sutter Street to Folsom Ranch
Folsom’s homes span more than a century. Near the Historic District and Sutter Street you’ll find older houses that have been updated a piece at a time, sometimes with three or four kinds of pipe joined together. North of Highway 50, neighborhoods like Empire Ranch filled in during the 1980s, ’90s and 2000s, and those homes are now on their second or third water heater. South of the freeway, Folsom Ranch is still being built, with brand-new homes and young families moving in all the time. We’ve worked on just about every mix of old and new plumbing Folsom has.
2 Brothers Plumbing serves all of it. We’re based in Elk Grove and work across Sacramento County and about 50 miles out, and Folsom is one of the cities we’re in most. Our team has been in the trades since 1988. We handle water heaters, gas lines, water treatment, drains, sewer and repairs, and every job starts with a free estimate on site. You see a real price before we begin, and you decide what happens next.

Plumbing services in Folsom
Folsom homeowners tend to call us for upgrades as much as repairs. Many want better water quality, more efficient hot water or a gas line for a new outdoor kitchen. Others are dealing with the ordinary wear that shows up in a 25-year-old house: a water heater that’s rumbling, a shut-off valve that won’t close or a slab leak nobody saw coming. Owners of older homes near downtown deal with mixed pipe and drains that have been patched more than once, while Folsom Ranch homeowners often call about first upgrades like a softener or a gas line for the patio. Here are the services we do most in Folsom and why they matter.
Water Heaters
We repair and replace tank water heaters of every size, and we’re certified installers for Bradford White and Navien, so you get equipment installed the way the maker intended.
Tankless Water Heaters
Larger Folsom homes with several bathrooms often run short on hot water. Tankless gives you a steady supply no matter how many showers are running.
Heat Pump Water Heaters
A heat pump water heater uses far less energy than a standard electric tank. We’ll tell you honestly whether your garage and layout suit one.
Water Softeners
Hard water leaves spots on glass and scale inside water heaters. A softener protects your plumbing and makes cleaning easier.
Whole-House Water Filtration
Filtration at the main line improves taste and smell at every tap in the house, not just the kitchen. It also means fewer trips for bottled water.
Gas Lines
From a gas range in a remodeled kitchen to a fire pit or outdoor kitchen in the backyard, we install gas lines safely and fix gas leaks.
Leak Detection
Slab and in-wall leaks can run for months before you notice. We find the source fast and fix it with as little damage as possible.
Drain Cleaning
Slow drains and backed-up kitchen sinks are cleared properly, so you’re not calling again next month. If a camera inspection makes sense, we’ll tell you why.
New Construction & Remodels
We do new construction plumbing too, so we know how homes in Folsom Ranch are put together and what to check when something goes wrong.
Plumbing Repair
Leaky faucets, running toilets, worn shut-off valves and noisy pipes. The small jobs get done right, the first time.
Our step-by-step process
Many Folsom homeowners have been burned before by a low price on a coupon that turned into a much bigger bill once the plumber showed up. We don’t work that way. Whether we’re replacing a water heater in Empire Ranch, adding a gas line in Folsom Ranch or chasing a leak in an older home near Sutter Street, the process is the same, and you’re in charge of every decision along the way.

We come out
Call us and tell us what’s happening. We set a time that works for you and come to your home.

We take emergency calls every day, Sundays included, and we’ll help you shut things off safely in the meantime.

Free on-site estimate
We look at the problem in person and give you a free estimate with a real price. If you’re weighing an upgrade, like moving to a heat pump water heater or adding a softener, we’ll lay out the options side by side so you can compare them honestly. We’ll also tell you when the simple fix is the right one.

Your approval
No work starts until you approve it. We’ll answer every question first. If the job is a bigger one, you can qualify for financing right from your estimate, with several options depending on credit, so you don’t have to put off a needed repair or upgrade. We’d rather you feel good about the decision than rush it.

The repair or install
We do the work cleanly and carefully, with respect for your home. For a gas line that means proper sizing, solid connections and a pressure test. For a water heater it means correct venting, strapping and connections. We protect your floors, clean up as we go and do it right the first time.

We test everything
Before we pack up, we test our work. We run fixtures, check every joint we touched for leaks, confirm gas connections are tight and make sure your hot water comes up to temperature. On softener and filtration installs, we check the settings and show you how the system works. You don’t get a plumber who leaves and hopes for the best.

Close-out
We show you what we did, explain any care your new equipment needs and close out the job. Most new installs carry a one-year warranty on leaks and labor, repairs carry a limited warranty, and extended warranties are available. If anything comes up later, you know exactly who to call.

Why We Love Working in Folsom, CA
Folsom has a way of mixing Gold Rush history with some of the best outdoor space in the region. The city keeps its history close, and its trail system ties much of it together. Driving to jobs here never gets old. Some of our favorite spots:
- Folsom Historic District. Centered on Sutter Street near the banks of Lake Natoma, the old downtown keeps its 1850s storefronts, now filled with restaurants, shops and theaters.
- Johnny Cash Trail. This paved trail links the Historic District to Folsom Lake and honors the singer’s famous 1968 live album recorded at Folsom State Prison, with large public art along the way.
- Folsom Powerhouse State Historic Park. On the bank of Lake Natoma, this powerhouse was one of the first in the country to send high-voltage power over long distances, lighting up Sacramento.
- Folsom City Zoo Sanctuary. Open since 1963 inside Folsom City Lions Park, the zoo is a sanctuary that cares for animals instead of breeding or selling them.
- Folsom Lake State Recreation Area. Folsom Lake and Lake Natoma give residents boating, kayaking, fishing and miles of shoreline trail close to home, with entrances on all sides of both lakes.
Folsom is also a town that keeps growing. As Folsom Ranch fills in south of Highway 50, new families are joining people who have lived here for decades, and Folsom Cordova Unified serves kids across the city. We sponsor high school sports, theater and arts programs in our area, and we’re glad to be part of a community that takes care of itself. Between the lakes, the trails and the history on Sutter Street, Folsom is one of our favorite places to spend a workday.

Plumbing questions from Folsom
I just bought a new home in Folsom Ranch. Do I still need a plumber?
Sometimes, yes. New homes can have loose fittings, builder-grade fixtures or pressure settings that need adjusting, and warranty coverage doesn’t last forever. Many new homeowners also want a softener or filtration added early, before hard water leaves scale on new fixtures and inside a new water heater. We can do a walk-through and point out anything that looks off.
Should I switch to a tankless or heat pump water heater?
It depends on your household. Tankless suits larger families who run out of hot water, and heat pump models save the most energy compared with a standard electric tank. Our guide to tank vs. tankless water heaters in Sacramento explains the trade-offs, and we’ll give you a free estimate on any option. Heat pump models need some space and airflow around them, which we’ll check on site.
Can you run a gas line for an outdoor kitchen or fire pit?
Yes. Plumbers install gas lines, and it’s one of the most common upgrades we do in Folsom backyards. We size the line for every appliance on it, pressure-test it and make sure it’s done safely. We can add a line for a pool heater, generator or patio heater at the same time.
Is Folsom’s water hard enough to need a water softener?
Hard water is common across the Sacramento region. If you see white crust on faucets, spots on dishes or scale inside your kettle, a water softener will help protect your water heater and fixtures. We can test your water and recommend the right setup for your home.
Do you take emergency calls in Folsom?
Yes. We take emergency calls every day, Sundays included. Our regular hours are Monday through Saturday, 7am to 7pm. If a supply line bursts, shut off the main valve first, then call us.
