Plumber in Woodland, CA
Plumbing for Woodland’s historic homes, newer neighborhoods and surrounding farm country
Woodland is the county seat of Yolo County and one of the most historic towns in our service area. Its downtown historic district has buildings dating from the 1860s to the 1940s, and the tree-lined streets around it are filled with Victorians, Craftsman homes and 1920s and 1930s bungalows. Newer neighborhoods have grown up around the older core, and past the edge of town it’s farm country, where many homes run on wells and septic.
2 Brothers Plumbing serves Woodland as part of our area reaching about 50 miles from our base in Elk Grove. We’ve been in the trades since 1988 and in business as 2 Brothers Plumbing since 2017. We like working on older homes, and we know how to keep their plumbing working without losing what makes them special.
Whether you own a century-old house near Main Street or a newer home on the edge of town, we’re ready to help. Call (916) 997-6370 to talk with our team.

Plumbing services in Woodland
Woodland plumbing comes in three flavors: old pipe in historic homes, normal wear in newer neighborhoods, and rural systems on the farms and ranches outside town. We handle all three. Hard water and hot Central Valley summers add wear on water heaters and fixtures no matter how old the house is. These are the services Woodland homeowners ask for most:
Plumbing Repair
Leaky fixtures, noisy pipes and worn valves are common in older homes. We repair them with parts that suit the house and fix the cause, not just the drip.
Repiping
Homes built before the 1960s may still have galvanized supply pipe. Repiping restores pressure and clean water throughout the house and stops the leaks that come with corroded joints.
Sewer Line Repair
Clay sewer laterals under historic homes crack and fill with roots from the big street trees. We inspect the line with a camera, then repair or replace the damaged section.
Drain Cleaning
Older drain lines narrow over time with buildup. We clear them properly, all the way through, and let you know if the line needs more work.
Water Heaters
We install and repair tank and tankless water heaters, including Navien and Bradford White, sized to fit older closets and newer garages alike.
Septic Services
Farm and ranch homes around Woodland rely on septic. We find the lid, pump the tank and repair or replace leach field lines.
Well Pump Repair
Rural Yolo County homes depend on their wells. We repair pumps, pressure tanks and controls to get water flowing again, and we explain what failed so you can plan ahead.
Gas Lines
Remodeling an older kitchen or adding a gas appliance? We install gas lines safely, check that older gas piping can handle the load and repair leaks.
Toilet Repair & Installation
Running, rocking or leaking toilets waste water and can quietly rot old wood floors. We fix or replace them and check the flange underneath.
Commercial Plumbing
From downtown storefronts in older brick buildings to agricultural shops and barns, we handle commercial plumbing service and repairs.
Our step-by-step process
Historic homes reward patience, and rural systems reward experience. Our process in Woodland takes both into account, and it always starts with listening to you about what’s going on. Here’s what working with us looks like from start to finish.
- 1
You call, we come out
Call us Monday through Saturday, 7am to 7pm, or any day for an emergency. Let us know what’s happening and a little about your home, such as its age or whether you’re on a well and septic system. We schedule a visit and send a technician to Woodland. If it’s an emergency, such as a burst pipe, we’ll help you shut off the water while you wait.
- 2
A free on-site estimate
We look at the problem in person before we quote. In a historic home, we check how the plumbing was put together and what’s been changed over the years. On a rural property, we look at the whole system. Then you get a real price for the job, with no teaser pricing that climbs later. We explain what we found in plain language, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
- 3
You approve the plan
We explain the options. In an older house, a targeted plumbing repair may be all you need, or a failing clay lateral may call for sewer line repair. On a farm property, we may recommend septic service to protect the leach field. You decide, and you can qualify for financing from your estimate. Nothing starts until you approve.
- 4
We do the work
We treat older homes with care, protecting floors, trim and plaster and opening walls only where it’s needed. Where old and new materials meet, we use proper transition fittings so the repair lasts. If we find something unexpected, we stop and talk with you before going further. On rural jobs, we work around animals, crops and outbuildings, and we leave gates the way we found them.
- 5
We test it
We test every repair. We check pressure at the fixtures, run drains, look for leaks and confirm water heaters and gas connections are safe. On wells and septic, we confirm the system cycles and drains as it should. If a test turns up a problem, we fix it before we leave.
- 6
We close you out
We go over what we did and what to watch for. All our work is guaranteed, and most new installs carry a one-year warranty on leaks and labor. Repairs to existing equipment carry a limited warranty, and extended warranties are available. If you have more questions later, you’ll have our number. We build relationships, not one-time jobs.

Why We Love Working in Woodland, CA
Woodland has held on to its history better than almost any town in the region, and it’s a pleasure to drive in for work. Here are a few of the places that make it special:
- Woodland Opera House. Built in 1885 and rebuilt after an 1892 fire, the Opera House at Main and Second Streets is now a State Historic Park and still hosts live performances.
- Downtown Woodland Historic District. A National Register district with buildings from the 1860s through the 1940s, including Victorian brick storefronts and a Renaissance Revival courthouse.
- Yolo County Fair. Held each August at the fairgrounds on Gum Avenue, it’s long been known as a free-gate fair that brings the whole county together.
- Woodland Joint Unified School District. Woodland’s public schools are well supported by the community, and we’re proud to sponsor high school sports, theater and arts programs in our region.
What we enjoy most about Woodland is its homes. The Victorians and bungalows near downtown were built to last, and many have outlived several rounds of plumbing. Working on them means figuring out what past owners and plumbers did, then making it right without tearing up what makes the house worth owning. Woodland also has a strong farm community, and the rural homes around town have their own needs, from well pumps to septic tanks. We like that mix of small-town history and working agriculture. It reminds us of why we got into the trades in the first place: to help people take care of the homes and properties they’ve worked hard for. We take emergency calls every day, Sundays included.

Such a great experience with Carl. We had a gas leak that needed to be addressed. He knew the issue right away and was able to fix it promptly and for a fair price.

Plumbing questions from Woodland
Do you work on historic homes in Woodland?
Yes. We regularly work on older homes, including Victorians, Craftsman homes and bungalows. We take care to protect original finishes and only open walls where it’s needed. We also explain what we find, so you understand your home better.
How can I tell if my older home has galvanized pipe?
Look at the exposed pipe near your water heater, under a sink or in the crawlspace. Galvanized pipe is dull gray steel with threaded fittings. Low pressure, rust-colored water and leaks at the joints are common signs. We can check it during a free estimate and tell you whether a few sections or the whole house should be replaced.
Do you provide septic and well service outside Woodland city limits?
Yes. We serve farm and rural homes around Woodland with septic pumping, repairs, tank replacement, leach field lines and well pump repair. If you don’t know where your septic lid is, we can find it.
What causes sewer backups in older Woodland neighborhoods?
Roots are a common cause. Woodland’s big, mature street trees send roots into the joints of older clay sewer pipe. A camera inspection shows where the problem is, and we repair or replace the damaged section so the backups stop for good. Trenchless options may let us avoid digging up your yard or driveway.
Can you add a gas line in my older Woodland home?
Yes. Licensed plumbers install gas lines, and we do it often for kitchen remodels, gas dryers and outdoor cooking areas. In an older home, we check that the existing gas piping is in good shape and sized for the new appliance before we connect anything.
