Plumbing in California
Plumbing jobs range from a quick fix to re-piping a house. Posting on GroundBid gets you private bids from licensed plumbers so you can compare the approach and price before anyone starts. GroundBid is open to homeowners and businesses across California.
What's typically included
Leaks and drips, fixture and water-heater installation, drains and sewer lines, re-piping, and new plumbing for remodels.
What to include in your project post
Describe the problem or the fixtures involved, where in the building it is, how old the plumbing is if you know, and add photos of the area.
Checking a provider in California
On GroundBid, plumbing is a licensed trade: a provider must have a verified state license before they can bid.
You can also check a contractor's license yourself with the Contractors State License Board (CSLB): official license lookup · 800-321-2752. California licenses contractors statewide through the CSLB. Its lookup shows a contractor's license status, classifications, bond, workers' compensation, personnel and any discipline.
Licensing and permit rules can change and vary by city and county. This is general information, not legal advice; confirm with the licensing board or your local building department. License lookups for every state →
How GroundBid works
Describe the project with photos, choose how long bidding stays open, and verified providers send private, sealed bids that other providers can't see. Compare them, accept the one you want, and your payment is held until you confirm the work is complete. How sealed bidding works →
