Portola Valley, CA

Portola Valley’s Trusted Plumbing & Electrical Service Since 1979

Ladera is a 1950s cooperative development with a remarkably consistent housing stock, Westridge and Portola Valley Ranch hold custom hillside houses, and Brookside Park runs toward rural ranch properties. Few places in the county pack that much variation into one small town.

Common Issues We See in Portola Valley

The four calls our Portola Valley crews make most often and the fixes that hold up.

1

RURAL PARCELS

Septic Tanks and Leach Fields

Slow drains and soft spots in the yard are late-stage symptoms of a failing system.

2

WELL-SERVED PROPERTIES

Well Water Sediment and Staining

Grit in the aerators and orange staining usually mean filtration is undersized or overdue.

3

HILLSIDE AND RANCH PROPERTIES

Power to Outbuildings and Pumps

Barns, shops and well pumps often run off circuits added piecemeal over the years.

4

LONG PRIVATE DRIVES

Extended Water and Sewer Runs

When the house sits far off the road, a leak can be anywhere along that run.

Christian came out and looked at our Shower issue. He gave us options to get the plumbing serviced. He was on time extremely professional and walked us through the process. Very high degree of professionalism.

Kameron is a ROCK STAR!!! In the past 2 weeks he has done 2 jobs on our house. The first was to bring our water heater up to code (huge shout out to Omar who did a great job too), and today he replaced our old toilet with a fancy new tankless integrated bidet. Kameron came yesterday to go over the options, he meticulously researched the toilet I selected, ensuring that we did need a boot and that the toilet would fit in our 80 year old bathroom as well as giving me a detailed, transparent quote of materials and labor. He was here first thing this morning and worked all day making everything perfect. He EVEN primed and painted the wall behind the toilet (something my husband wanted to do but was out of town). He also added caulking to the seam between our sink and the wall, which had eroded. Going “above and beyond” doesn’t begin to describe Kameron’s work, his professional service and his kindness. We have been customers of Caccia plumbing and Kameron exemplifies Caccia at its highest bar. THANK YOU!!!

Best plumber, fixes the problems! I have tried several other plumbers that couldn’t fix the problems and wasted my money. I’ve had several leaks and even if Caccia has to come back to fine tune (threads) and tighten a bit, never have s leak again. Service is on time courteous, clean and quality work.

Caccia did such an amazing job, I would definitely use them again. The technician, Pablo, was extremely communicative. We had a pretty bad water leak in our hot water heater. Pablo pinpointed the issue very quickly, kept in constant contact with me until a decision was made on the best approach, and had the repair done in less than an hour. He was kind, arrived on time, and had the water leak fixed way faster than I had imagined. Overall 10/10 service.

We are impressed with Caccia Plumbing, and always have been! They are well established and known for true expertise, professionalism, and trustworthiness! They have been around for decades! They have done both small jobs and a few larger,, more significant jobs for us. We have always been supremely satisfied. Today, Kameron and Omar did a thorough and efficient job with our shower faucet! They provided us with a few service options with transparent pricing from the basic fix it option up to a more preventative option as well aa an upgrade option for an older house. These guys were awesome and communicative, and they even fixed our side garden gate that was having a minor issue while they were in our easement dealing with our plumbing problem! What a bonus! Five stars and beyond always for Caccia! NOTE: While their prices might be slightly higher than the competition, it is well worth it! Caccia pays their plumbers and electricians very well with good benefits. This investment in their talent shows! Their employees stay with them for a long time. Kameron had been here about 5 years ago for another job, and he remembered it and even had pictures of that previous job. They also put substantial effort into quality training and apprentice programs

I don't often write reviews, but I wanted to make sure to commend the entire team at Caccia. The operations and scheduling staff is responsive, polite, proactive and thorough in keeping me up to date on scheduling. The service staff that came to my home have all been great and I want to especially call out the great and polite/respectful service I received from Nate, Pablo, and Joseph. You can't go wrong calling Caccia.

Frequently Asked Questions in Portola Valley

Do I need a permit for plumbing or electrical work in Portola Valley?2026-04-16T21:46:20+00:00

Yes. The Town of Portola Valley requires permits for most work beyond basic repairs. Work in environmentally sensitive areas may need additional review. We handle all permitting and inspections on your behalf.

Does my Portola Valley home have septic or sewer?2026-04-16T21:45:48+00:00

It depends on your location. Some Portola Valley homes are connected to the West Bay Sanitary District, while others rely on private septic systems. We service both and can help you determine which system your home uses.

My home on a wooded lot has old pipes. Should I repipe?2026-04-16T21:45:20+00:00

Many mid-century Portola Valley homes have galvanized or aging copper pipes. Corrosion is compounded by long supply runs on larger rural lots. A full or partial repipe with modern materials improves pressure and eliminates recurring leaks.

Are backup generators common in Portola Valley?2026-04-16T21:44:16+00:00

Yes. Portola Valley’s rural, wooded setting makes it more susceptible to power outages from storms and fallen trees. We install and service whole-house generators, including the electrical panel work and transfer switch installation.

Does Caccia serve all of Portola Valley?2026-04-16T21:43:43+00:00

Yes. We serve all of Portola Valley including properties along Alpine Road, Portola Road, Old La Honda Road, and the surrounding areas of Woodside, Menlo Park, and Palo Alto.

Can my electrical panel handle an EV charger and backup generator?2026-04-16T21:43:12+00:00

Many older Portola Valley homes have 100-amp panels that aren’t sufficient for modern loads. We assess your total electrical needs and handle the upgrade to 200-amp or higher service, including all permitting.

For more detailed information or to schedule a service, please don’t hesitate to contact our customer service team.
