Plumber in Arcadia, AZ, From Our Office at 4700 E Thomas Road
We are out the same day on most jobs, and in Arcadia the truck starts at 4700 E Thomas Road, inside the neighborhood. Arcadia was citrus land before it was a neighborhood, and the ranch houses that replaced the groves went up in the middle of the last century. Old houses have old supply lines, whatever the kitchen looks like now.

Plumbing in Arcadia: What Shapes the Work
Two separate water systems can cross the same Arcadia lot, and the reason goes back more than a century. The Arcadia Water Company formed in 1919 to bring irrigation water to citrus land, and by 1924 it had fifteen miles of concrete irrigation pipe in the ground. Phoenix growth reached Arcadia in the mid-1950s, and sections like Mountgrove, where most of the homes went up in 1954, went up on top of the old grove land. So a house here can be seventy years old and sitting on ground that was plumbed for water thirty years before it was plumbed for people. Which water system is under your lot changes what a wet spot in the yard means.
The city plans this area as Camelback East Village, and a major portion of the housing stock was built between 1950 and 1970. Camelback Mountain closes off the north side, with the Echo Canyon trailhead at 4925 E McDonald Drive. These are slab-on-grade houses, which means the copper supply lines run under the floor instead of through the walls, and finding a leak under there is the work. Our office is at 4700 E Thomas Road, a few minutes from all of it, right inside the neighborhood, which is why same-day service here is not a stretch across the Valley but a short drive.
Knowing which water system your lot is on changes what a wet spot in the yard means. The Arcadia Water Company is still running. It is an Arizona nonprofit, and the people it serves are members rather than customers. It owns the wells, a pumping plant, a reservoir, and the main lines that carry the water. None of that is drinking water and none of it goes through the house. So an Arcadia lot can have two separate water systems on it, and only one of them runs through your plumbing. Not every lot is on the old system. Sorting out which one you are on is the first thing we do before anybody digs.
