Things San Mateo asks us

Frequently Asked Questions in San Mateo

Can my electrical panel handle an EV charger or heat pump water heater?2026-04-16T22:21:00+00:00

Many older San Mateo homes have 60- or 100-amp panels that aren’t sufficient. We assess your current capacity and handle the panel upgrade and permitting if needed.

Does Caccia serve all San Mateo neighborhoods?2026-04-16T22:21:31+00:00

Yes. We serve all of San Mateo including Baywood, Hayward Park, Hillsdale, San Mateo Park, North Shoreview, San Mateo Village, and the surrounding areas of Burlingame, Foster City, and Belmont.

Who is responsible for sewer lateral repairs in San Mateo?2026-04-16T22:22:41+00:00

Homeowners are responsible for the entire sewer lateral from the house to the city main. Older clay and Orangeburg laterals are common in established San Mateo neighborhoods and are prone to root intrusion and collapse.

My home in Baywood has old pipes. Should I repipe?2026-04-16T22:23:03+00:00

Many pre-1950s homes in Baywood, Hayward Park, and North Central still have galvanized steel pipes. Internal corrosion causes low pressure, rusty water, and recurring leaks. A full or partial repipe is usually the best long-term fix.

What causes hard water buildup in San Mateo homes?2026-09-24T22:22:24+00:00

San Mateo’s water comes from the SFPUC’s Hetch Hetchy system via Cal Water. It is relatively soft compared to many cities, but the mineral content is still enough to leave scale in water heaters and on fixtures over time. Flushing the water heater regularly helps, and a water softener adds protection where buildup keeps coming back.

Do I need a permit for plumbing or electrical work in San Mateo?2026-04-16T22:24:08+00:00

Most work beyond basic repairs requires a permit through the City of San Mateo Building Division. We pull all necessary permits and schedule inspections on your behalf.
