Hillsborough, CA

Hillsborough’s Premium Plumbing & Electrical Service Since 1979

Lower Hillsborough and Hillsborough Park hold 1920s estates with original wiring still behind the plaster, Crystal Springs adds midcentury architect homes, and newer custom builds continue around Tobin Clark. These houses were built to a standard, which is exactly why so much original work is still in service.

Things Hillsborough asks us

Frequently Asked Questions in Hillsborough

Is the water in Hillsborough hard?2026-04-16T20:23:26+00:00

Hillsborough’s water comes from the SFPUC’s Hetch Hetchy system, with hardness in the moderately hard range. Over time, mineral buildup can scale water heaters, reduce fixture performance, and shorten appliance life. A whole-house water softener can help.

Does Caccia serve all of Hillsborough?2026-04-16T20:23:59+00:00

Yes. We serve all of Hillsborough including North Hillsborough, Carolands, Tobin Clark Estate, and the surrounding areas of Burlingame, San Mateo, and Millbrae.

Who is responsible for sewer lateral repairs in Hillsborough?2026-04-16T20:24:38+00:00

Homeowners are responsible for the sewer lateral from the house to the city main. Hillsborough lots are large, so laterals can be quite long and often run through mature landscaping. Trenchless methods can replace the line without excavating the yard.

Can my electrical panel support a pool heater, EV charger, and guest house?2026-04-16T20:25:05+00:00

Older Hillsborough estates often have panels that were adequate when built but can’t handle today’s demands. We assess your total electrical load and handle upgrades to 400-amp service, including all permitting.

What are the common plumbing issues in older Hillsborough estates?2026-04-16T20:25:38+00:00

Pre-1960s Hillsborough homes commonly have galvanized steel supply lines and cast-iron drain pipes. These corrode internally over time, causing low pressure, discolored water, and recurring leaks. Many also have very long sewer laterals that are prone to root intrusion.

Do I need a permit for plumbing or electrical work in Hillsborough?2026-04-16T20:26:15+00:00

Yes. The Town of Hillsborough requires permits for most work beyond minor repairs, issued through the Building Department. We handle all permitting and inspections on your behalf.
