With its mountain views, charming downtown, and easy access to outdoor adventure, it’s no wonder Truckee, CA is one of the most beloved towns in the Sierra Nevada. Whether you’ve lived here for decades or just settled into your family’s dream home, Truckee offers a lifestyle that’s equal parts cozy and rugged—with a little snow shoveling on the side.
What we love most about serving Truckee is the pride homeowners take in caring for their homes—especially when winter hits hard. At Blue Moose Plumbing, we’re proud to help you do just that. From leak detection and water line repairs to gas line safety, emergency plumbing, and water heater service, we’re here to make sure everything flows smoothly behind the scenes. And as always, you can count on simple scheduling, honest pricing, and service backed by friendly, experienced pros.
Plumbing issues don’t follow a 9-to-5 schedule—and in a place like Truckee, where frozen pipes and deep winter chills are part of the routine, a fast response can make all the difference. That’s why our emergency plumbing services are designed to protect your home when time matters most. Whether it's the middle of the night or a holiday weekend, Blue Moose Plumbing is ready to step in with reliable service and real solutions.
When you call us for an emergency, we don't send vague windows or voicemails—we send trained professionals who show up ready to work. Our licensed technicians are equipped to handle a wide range of urgent problems, including burst pipes, clogged or overflowing toilets, slab leaks, gas leaks, and sewer backups. We take the time to quickly assess the issue, explain your options clearly, and get to work minimizing the damage and restoring safety.

And we won’t leave you waiting in a vulnerable moment. We handle emergencies with the same care and professionalism we bring to every job, backed by years of experience working in Truckee homes through every season.

No matter the situation, we treat your emergency like it’s our own—with urgency, clarity, and lasting results. We recommend every homeowner in Truckee have our number saved—you never know when you'll need it, but when you do, you'll be glad you called.

When you live in a place like Truckee, where snowy mornings and chilly evenings are part of everyday life, a reliable hot water supply isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. At Blue Moose Plumbing, we offer comprehensive water heater repair and installation services to ensure your home stays warm, functional, and comfortable no matter the season.
Our technicians work with both traditional tank and tankless water heater systems, so whether you're replacing an aging unit or upgrading to a more energy-efficient solution, we’ve got you covered. We start by assessing your home’s hot water usage, household size, and energy goals, then walk you through your options with clear, honest recommendations. We install all major brands and make sure every connection is secure, every safety feature is functional, and your new system runs exactly the way it should.
In many Truckee homes—especially older or seasonal cabins—existing water heaters can struggle to keep up. Cold showers, strange noises, rusty water, or a constantly tripping breaker are all signs that your unit needs attention. Our water heater repair service addresses problems like faulty thermostats, broken heating elements, sediment buildup, and pilot light failure. We show up on time, diagnose the issue quickly, and offer solutions that balance short-term fixes with long-term value.
If your water heater is beyond repair or nearing the end of its lifespan, we’ll handle the full replacement process, from removing the old unit to testing and installing the new one. For families looking to switch to a tankless water heater, we provide expert conversion services that include line adjustments, venting updates, and setup of on-demand systems designed to deliver endless hot water while reducing energy use.
Maintenance is key to extending the life of your water heater—especially in a high-altitude environment like Truckee where hard water and sediment buildup are common. That’s why we offer water heater flushing services to clear out mineral deposits that can reduce efficiency and shorten the lifespan of your unit. This quick, affordable service is one of the best ways to keep your system running smoothly.
We also specialize in heating element replacement for electric water heaters, ensuring your system delivers consistent hot water without spikes, drops, or lukewarm surprises. No matter the brand or age of your system, our team comes prepared with the parts, tools, and experience to get the job done right the first time.
From cozy cabins to custom homes, our water heater services are built around the unique needs of Truckee homeowners. We know the local weather patterns, building codes, and common system issues—and we use that knowledge to provide efficient, reliable service backed by integrity.
Whether you're dealing with an emergency breakdown or planning an upgrade, trust Blue Moose Plumbing to keep your hot water flowing year-round. We combine dependable craftsmanship with small-town service, because we know that when your water heater fails, you need help you can count on—fast.

When it comes to protecting your family and your home, you want fast answers, clear solutions, and the kind of professional help that gets it right the first time. That’s exactly what you’ll get with Blue Moose Plumbing. We proudly offer expert gas leak detection, gas line repair, and complete repiping services throughout Truckee, CA.
If you’ve noticed a rotten egg smell, a faint hissing noise behind a wall, or if one of your appliances just isn’t working the way it should, it may be more than an inconvenience. These signs could indicate a gas leak—one of the most dangerous problems any homeowner can face. Our team uses state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment to safely locate the source of the leak, shut off the system, and get to work on immediate repairs.
For moms and homeowners managing busy households, the last thing you need is a plumbing company that shows up late, leaves a mess, or tries to upsell you on work you don’t need. That’s why we show up when we say we will, communicate clearly, and focus on solving the problem quickly and completely—so you can get back to your day with confidence and peace of mind.
If your home in Truckee has older gas lines—especially galvanized or black steel piping—those lines could be corroding or developing hairline cracks. Over time, these hidden issues can compromise your home’s safety. That’s why we offer full gas line replacement and repiping, replacing outdated systems with safer, code-compliant materials like flexible corrugated stainless steel (CSST) or high-quality copper.
Planning a kitchen renovation? Adding a gas-powered dryer or a new tankless water heater? Our team can install new gas lines wherever you need them. We carefully map your layout, secure all necessary permits, and perform pressure tests after installation to ensure everything runs perfectly and safely. We also specialize in outdoor gas installations for BBQs, fire pits, and backup generators—perfect for life in the mountains.
Many of our clients are families who split time between Truckee and the Bay Area or Sacramento. We understand the importance of communication and reliability—especially if you're managing your home remotely. Whether we’re checking on a system while you're away or scheduling follow-ups during a holiday visit, we make it simple and stress-free.
Even if your gas system seems to be working fine, we offer routine inspections and pressure testing to identify early signs of wear or leaks. Preventative service is one of the most effective ways to protect your family and avoid costly emergency repairs later on.
Every gas service we provide is done with local codes and safety standards in mind. We take the time to pull proper permits and coordinate with local utilities when needed. Most importantly, we treat your home with care and respect—wearing protective gear indoors, keeping our work areas clean, and walking you through what to expect before we begin.

Not every plumbing problem starts with a gush of water. In fact, some of the most damaging leaks are the quiet ones—the ones hidden beneath your flooring, behind your walls, or even buried deep in your yard. At Blue Moose Plumbing, we specialize in leak detection, pipe repair, and water line replacement, helping Truckee homeowners protect their homes before a minor issue turns into a major repair.
Whether you’re a full-time resident or splitting time between Truckee and the Bay Area, staying ahead of leaks is essential.

Once we’ve found the problem, we’ll explain what’s happening in clear terms, show you your options, and walk you through the repair process with zero pressure or confusion.
For homes with older plumbing systems—especially those that have experienced multiple leaks or water pressure issues—our pipe repair and repiping services offer a fresh start. We work with high-performance materials like PEX and copper, replacing old, corroded, or cracked lines that could be impacting your water quality or flow. Our technicians take the time to evaluate your entire plumbing system, so you’re not just patching a problem—you’re improving the reliability of your home.
If the issue lies beyond your walls, we also provide complete water line replacement services. Freezing temps, shifting soil, and outdated materials can all contribute to water main failure, and replacing these lines quickly and professionally is critical to protecting your home’s foundation and water supply. When possible, we use trenchless methods to minimize digging and preserve your landscaping, driveway, or walkways.
We also understand that leak repairs can disrupt your routine, especially for busy families. That’s why we prioritize communication, flexible scheduling, and fast turnaround. You’ll never be left guessing about timelines or costs—we keep you in the loop every step of the way.
Whether you need to locate a hidden leak, restore water pressure, or replace failing pipes, Blue Moose Plumbing delivers high-quality service you can trust. Because protecting your home shouldn’t come with stress—it should come with solutions.
