1. Predictable Pricing—No Surprises, No Spikes
Nobody likes getting hit with hidden fees before, during, or after a service call, but in a tough economy, an unexpectedly high invoice can really sting. Insulating you from price hikes and other nasty surprises starts with a strong commitment to transparency, but we also plan to avoid shifts in the market.
Our Commitment to Transparent, Upfront Pricing
Every customer is provided with a full upfront quote before we start any work, one that closely reflects their budget, the service they need, and what’s required to get the job done right. You’ll have the opportunity to review it and give us the green light before the work starts.
If something comes up that affects the cost of your service, like a hidden leak or a short circuit, we’ll always let you know right away and work with you to find a solution that fits your budget.
How We Plan Ahead To Save You Money
Securing parts, materials, and pricing from suppliers in advance lets us shield you from sudden price swings or unexpected market changes. That means you aren’t faced with any sudden increases—just consistent, fair pricing you can count on, no matter what the market is doing.
We also stock our home base with high-quality parts and materials, so most of the parts we need are already on hand even before you call. This helps keep prices stable and lets us handle repairs faster without waiting for parts to come in.

2. Local Suppliers Mean Faster Turnarounds & Lower Costs
For the parts, materials, and appliances we don’t have in stock, we turn to a trusted list of suppliers in the local market. Working with companies here in the Bay Area means we aren’t waiting for parts to ship in before we can tackle the job. That reduces transportation overhead and lets us access quality materials we can rely on so your project is on time and on budget.
But our commitment to buying local has another important benefit: it means we’re putting money back into the local economy whenever we pick up parts and materials. Each time we service your home, we’re also helping our neighbors stay in business at the same time. As a local business, we know how much that kind of support matters, especially when times are tough.

3. Efficient Use of Materials Means You Don’t Pay for Waste
At Caccia Home Services, we don’t believe in wasting time, money, materials, or labor—ours or yours. We strive to operate efficiently at every level of business so we can reduce our total overhead, limit disposal feels and pass any savings along to you.
Here’s how we cut waste:
- Before we get to the job site, we map out exactly what we need to get the job done right. This helps us avoid over-ordering so you aren’t paying for wasted materials.
- Once we’re on site, crew members measure twice and cut once to make sure they’re using every part, pipe, and switch as efficiently as possible.
- After the job is done, we recycle or reuse extra materials on other projects. We don’t charge you for extra materials we don’t use in the line of service.
You benefit from these practices by saving money, but limiting waste is also an important part of our commitment to helping California fight climate change. Working cleaner, smarter, and more responsibly helps us protect areas like the Pulgas Creek Watershed (which you can see behind Geno and Anthony in the photo above)—and that’s never been more important than it is right now.
4. Streamlined Scheduling Saves Time & Money
We’ve all had this experience at least once: you need a specific type of contractor, but it takes at least a dozen calls to track down the right one. Then, it turns out they aren’t available, so you’re forced to start dialing new numbers all over again.
Your time is too valuable to waste on calling every business in town like this! Our team works hard behind the scenes to make sure we have people available so we can send the right people to the job site without forcing you to wait days for service.
Planning ahead like this and carefully coordinating service calls reduces downtime, lets you avoid repeat visits, and keeps the cost of labor low. You get faster, more cost-effective service with less disruption, and it’s easier for us to stay on top of everyone’s needs, including plumbing emergencies!
Good planning leads to better results. Being prepared and having a large team of contractors available at all times helps each job go smoother, so costs stay down and everyone wins.
5. One Call, Full Service: No Need for Multiple Contractors
Caccia Home Services has come a long way since James Caccia first launched a plumbing business in 1979. What started as a family-owned business based on real values like honesty and hard work grew into a trusted source of plumbing and electrical help in the Bay Area.
Now, almost three decades and one new location in Burlingame later, we handle plumbing, electrical, and HVAC all under the same company and roof. There’s no need to call around because we can provide full service for almost anything in your home.
Working with the same provider benefits you in so many ways:
- It’s cost-effective. Bundling services into the same visit ensures you aren’t paying for multiple calls when you don’t have to.
- It’s efficient. Getting access to a tightly coordinated team of superstar contractors means fewer delays, a lower risk for mistakes, and smoother projects.
- It’s consistent. No matter what job we’re handling for you, you can be sure you’re getting the same great service every time.
Bringing everything under the same roof means you get fewer headaches and more affordable services. It also makes it easier for our team to spot potential issues ahead of time and warn you so you can take action before they become costly emergencies.

6. Long-Term Value, Not Just Quick Fixes
When we arrive at your home, we’re never there to just slap some duct tape on the problem and move on. Our team takes the time to get the job done right because we have integrity and believe in quality workmanship every time. That’s the kind of service that keeps people coming back!
As much as we LOVE hearing from you, our number one goal is to deliver top-notch services so you aren’t forced to call back about the same problem multiple times. We can help you avoid sudden failures, early replacements, and costly repairs with preventative services like these:
- Whole-home plumbing inspections help us spot and fix leaks, corrosion in water or gas lines, and problems with water pressure early.
- Electrical panel tune-ups and safety checks prevent short circuits and safety overloads, but they also help us spot other fire hazards before it’s too late.
- HVAC maintenance improves efficiency, which can save you money on your energy bill, but it also preserves your indoor air quality and helps extend the life of your system.
- Water heater inspections give us the opportunity to flush out your tank, if you have one, and verify if the system is in good working condition.
- Backflow testing gives us the ability to confirm if you’re at risk for water contamination, which is more common than you might think.
Whether you’re calling us in for routine maintenance or you’re currently in the middle of a plumbing emergency, the quality of our work is consistently high every time. If you have any concerns or aren’t happy with something, just let us know and we’ll do our best to make it right.
