What People’s Say
Reviews
Joe is a rare breed and someone that you feel thankful that you met! I requested a quote for some plumbing that needed to be fixed and Joe came out, addressed the problems, and helped us fix leaks in the plumbing. I couldn't recommend him enough to anyone who needs underground construction or plumbing work on their home.
Thank you again for everything and the advice and help you shared.

I was leaving the Bay Area after 30 years and my house was 115 years old. As expected, I failed an inspection required by City of San Mateo's lateral sewer line ordinance (enacted in 2020).
I contacted a very large plumbing outfit suggested by my realtor, but they gave me a very large estimate. Later that night, someone recommended Joe at Total Underground Construction (funnily enough it was a Lyft driver who heard my sob story and had a similar experience).
Joe assessed the situation and gave me a lower quote with a few contingencies for stuff he couldn't see until excavating. To my surprise, the contingent items weren't necessary and the quote held.
Work was performed impeccably and quickly. Permits and all phases were perfectly sequenced, and we passed inspection. Now I can sell the house.
Joe is very experienced and a good guy - total pro. If you're ever in this situation, don't stress - just contact this company.

I had a clogged main sewer line that needed replacing and my neighbor recommended Joe and Orlando. They immediately came out to assess the situation and proposed a cost effective solution. Right away, they came off as two guys who really enjoyed their work. After accepting the project, they took the extra steps to drive out that night to get the sewer line in a passable condition for the few days until the start of the project so we would not be without water and this was all done free of charge with the project. For comparison, other plumbers I've worked with have charged me even for using the camera to look at the line. During the project, they had 4 guys working and were able to complete the sewer line replacement in a single day. On top of all this, their price was extremely reasonable. Highly recommend them and would definitely call on them for future plumbing needs.

FAQ
you asked we answer
What's a Gravity Sewer?
What is underground work in construction?
Underground work in construction entails drilling, soft soil work, blasting, and rock bolting. The work does not include activities not physically connected to underground construction, like transmission lines and electrical systems.
What's the importance of pressure monitoring for gas utilities?
The importance of pressure monitoring for gas utilities is to assess if a line is dealing with a leak or other issue. Pressure can drop if there is a leak or increase if the line has a problem.
Total UC works with PG&E to provide gas pressure monitoring service and track pressure at the meter level throughout the rest of the network. This allows PG & E to know where there is an issue for prompt fixing. This new technology is commonplace in most recent developments around the city but is still slowly being rolled out to older parts of the network as repairs are done.
