Mission Hills is one of San Diego's most architecturally distinguished neighborhoods. Perched on the hills overlooking Old Town, San Diego Bay, and the airport, this historic community of roughly 15,000 residents is celebrated for its tree-lined streets, canyon views, and one of the finest collections of early 20th century residential architecture in Southern California.
The housing stock is a showcase of San Diego's architectural golden age. From the grand Craftsman homes and Prairie-style residences of the 1910s, to the elegant Spanish Revival and Mission Revival estates of the 1920s and 30s, to the mid-century modern infill of the 1950s and 60s, Mission Hills' homes represent the full spectrum of pre-modern plumbing technology.
That concentration of historic homes creates serious plumbing challenges. With a median home age exceeding 75 years and much of the housing stock predating 1940, Mission Hills residents face the most demanding plumbing scenarios in San Diego. Homewerx specializes in exactly these challenges.
Every era of construction used different pipe materials, each with its own failure modes. Knowing what's behind your walls is the first step to protecting your home and your family's health.
