Looking for a plumber in Santa Monica who shows up when they say and quotes before they start? Target Plumbers works out of 18th Street, a few blocks from Montana Avenue, and covers every Santa Monica neighborhood from North of Montana to Ocean Park and Sunset Park. Leaking pipes, clogged drains, a water heater that’s given up, a toilet that won’t stop running: we diagnose it, give you the price, and fix it once you say yes.
A quick guide to what we do for Santa Monica homes, condos and rental buildings, with a link to each service for the details.
In a condo or apartment, a leak rarely stays in one unit; it shows up as a stain on the neighbor’s ceiling. We trace the source with acoustic and thermal equipment, open only what we need to, and repair the pipe or fitting. Water leak repair in Santa Monica.
Kitchen sinks, showers and the shared stacks in multi-unit buildings. We clear the line, run a camera when the same drain keeps backing up, and use hydro jetting when grease or roots need to be scoured out rather than poked through. Drain cleaning in Santa Monica.
Garage tanks, closet units in apartments and tankless heaters on exterior walls. We repair what’s worth repairing and replace what isn’t, including haul-away of the old unit. Water heater installation in Santa Monica.
Running toilets, cracked tanks, worn cartridges and loose fixtures, plus new toilets, sinks and faucets and shower valves during a bathroom update. Toilet replacement in Santa Monica.
Root-damaged laterals, sagging lines and worn-out supply pipes in older houses. We show you the camera footage, then recommend a repair, a reroute or a repipe based on what the pipe actually looks like. Sewer line repair in Santa Monica.
Gas line repairs and new runs for appliances, pressure-tested before the gas goes back on, and earthquake gas shut-off valves that close automatically in a strong quake. Gas line repair in Santa Monica.

Santa Monica’s housing is a mix you don’t find in many cities: 1920s and 1930s bungalows and Spanish-style homes north of Montana and around Wilshire, mid-century apartment buildings across Mid-City and the Pico neighborhood, and newer condos downtown. Each has its own weak points.
In the older houses we find cast iron drains that have scaled up inside, clay sewer laterals with root intrusion, and galvanized supply lines that have lost most of their pressure. In apartment buildings the issues are shared lines: one tenant’s grease clog backs up into the unit below, or a leaking riser shows up two floors from where it started. For owners and property managers, we keep the disruption to tenants short and give you a clear write-up of what we found and fixed.
The ocean adds wear too. Salt air corrodes exposed copper, hose bibs, water heater vents and gas flex connectors on properties close to the beach, so outdoor plumbing in Ocean Park and the blocks near the coast is worth checking every year.
Our Santa Monica location is open every day, Monday through Sunday, from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Call (310) 388-3824 to book a visit.
Plumbing emergency after 5 PM? Call the Target Plumbers 24/7 dispatch line at (844) 941-2727 and we’ll send the nearest available plumber.Until the plumber arrives, close your main water shut-off; in many Santa Monica homes it’s in the front yard near the meter or where the line enters the house, and in apartment buildings it’s often in a utility closet or garage. If you smell gas, get outside and call 911 or SoCalGas from there. See emergency plumbing for more.

Yes. We handle individual units and shared building plumbing: drain stacks, risers, water heaters and main lines. For landlords and HOAs, we coordinate access with tenants and explain which repairs affect a single unit and which affect the whole building.
Turn off every fixture and check the water meter; if it keeps moving, water is escaping somewhere. Other signs are a higher water bill, damp spots on walls or ceilings, or a musty smell. Call us and we’ll locate the leak before opening any walls.
Often, yes. Galvanized steel supply lines, common in pre-war Santa Monica homes, narrow as they rust inside. A pressure test and a look at the pipe tell us whether a pressure regulator, a partial replacement or a repipe is the right fix.
If the tank is leaking from the bottom or rusting, replace it. If it’s a part such as a thermostat, element or gas valve on a younger unit, a repair usually makes sense. We’ll give you the cost of both before starting.
Our Santa Monica location is open daily from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. For emergencies outside those hours, call our 24/7 dispatch line at (844) 941-2727.
Yes, our plumbers are licensed and insured. California plumbing contractors are licensed by the CSLB, and you can look up our license there.
