Plumber in Novato, CA

Marin's First Stop on Highway 101

Novato is the first Marin County city you reach heading south on Highway 101 from Sonoma County, and it has a housing stock all its own. It includes Hamilton, a former Air Force base that is now a residential neighborhood, along with many mid-century homes built as Novato grew. Those mid-century homes are now decades old, which means their original fixtures and piping are deep into — or past — their service life. That mix of a converted military neighborhood and aging mid-century housing shapes the plumbing Dusty sees here.

Dusty brings over 15 years of residential service experience to Novato. He diagnoses carefully, explains your options before any work starts, and works cleanly — whether the job is in Hamilton or a mid-century home elsewhere in the city.

Distance and Drive Time From Rohnert Park

Novato is about 21 miles south of Rohnert Park, roughly a 25-minute drive. When you call, Dusty gives you a real arrival window so you know when to expect him — he never promises a response time he cannot keep.
