Plumber in Nampa, Idaho

Plumbing repair and installation for Nampa homes, from Old Nampa bungalows to new builds near Lake Lowell.

Nampa is the largest city in Canyon County and sits about 20 miles west of Boise on Interstate 84. It has one of the widest mixes of housing in the valley. Downtown and the historic district hold homes from the 1900s through the 1940s. The 1970s ranch neighborhoods spread out from there, and the last 20 years added large subdivisions on the south and north edges. Each era has its own plumbing problems, and Summit Plumbing has worked on all of them. Nampa runs on well water that is hard and mineral heavy, which shortens the life of water heaters and clogs aerators. We serve the whole city, including homes on private wells outside the limits.

Homes in Nampa

Nampa's older core has bungalows and small ranches with galvanized supply lines, cast iron or clay drains, and original sewer laterals that roots find easily. The 1970s and 1980s tracts often have copper that has pinholed and water heaters in cramped closets. Newer south Nampa homes mostly fail at the water heater, the pressure regulator, or the plastic fittings under sinks.

Nampa questions

Do you work on the older homes near downtown Nampa?

Yes, and they make up a large part of our Nampa work. Homes built before 1950 often have galvanized supply pipe and clay sewer laterals. We repair what can be repaired and lay out repiping in stages when it cannot.

Why does my Nampa water heater fail sooner than the one at my parents' house in Boise?

Nampa water comes from wells and carries more dissolved minerals than Boise's blended supply. Scale builds on the tank bottom faster. Annual flushing and a softener both help.

Do you charge extra to drive to Nampa?

No. We serve Boise, Meridian, Nampa, Eagle, and Kuna at one rate, and Nampa is inside it.
