Paradise Valley is a town of large estate lots. Long service lines, multiple water heaters, pools and fountains, and (in many homes) septic systems make plumbing calls here more complex than in a typical tract home.
Areas: Town of Paradise Valley estates around Camelback and Mummy Mountain.
The Town lists four water providers by area (Berneil Water, City of Phoenix, City of Scottsdale and EPCOR). For septic questions it refers residents to Maricopa County Environmental Services at 602-506-0715. Source

Burst Pipe Repair
With about 23% of homes built before 1970, original galvanized-steel supply lines and cast-iron or clay drains are a real possibility here. These corrode from the inside, which is behind many pinhole leaks and sudden pipe failures. If you're repairing the same line twice, ask for a repipe quote. Guide →
Slab Leak Repair
The median home here dates to the 1980s. In slab-built homes of that era, copper lines under the floor are a common source of slab leaks. Get quotes for both a spot repair and a reroute. Guide →
Sewer Backup
Some properties here are on septic. If several drains back up at once, find out whether you're on septic or sewer before calling: septic problems need a septic pumping or repair company, and Maricopa or Pinal County environmental services handle septic permits. Guide →
