Residential New Construction Plumbing in Merced

FBL Plumbing specializes in complete plumbing system installations for new residential homes. This includes designing the layout, installing all water supply lines, drain lines, and vent piping. We work closely with homeowners and builders to ensure the plumbing system is tailored to the home's specifications and future needs, using materials like PEX and copper for supply lines and PVC for drains, chosen for durability in Northern California climate.

Commercial and Multifamily New Construction in Merced

We also plumb small commercial buildouts, offices, retail suites and multifamily projects. These jobs often require grease interceptors, backflow assemblies, commercial water heaters and ADA compliant fixtures. We read commercial plans, coordinate submittals and keep the general contractor informed through each inspection. Our crews scale up so plumbing never becomes the bottleneck on your schedule.

Gas Piping for New Homes in Merced

We size and install gas piping for ranges, water heaters, furnaces, fireplaces, pool heaters and outdoor kitchens. Black iron and CSST systems are both available, and CSST is bonded per manufacturer and code requirements. We calculate total BTU load and pipe length so every appliance gets enough pressure even when everything runs at once. The system is pressure tested and inspected before the utility sets the meter.

Fixture Installation and Trim-Out in Merced, CA

Once the rough-in is complete and walls are up, our team returns for fixture installation and trim-out. This includes connecting sinks, toilets, bathtubs, showers, dishwashers, and water heaters. We make sure all fixtures are properly seated, sealed, and functional, providing a clean finish to your new construction plumbing. We work with various brands like Moen, Kohler, and American Standard to match your design specifications.

Gas Line Installation for New Homes in Merced

If your new home will use natural gas for heating, cooking, or water heating, FBL Plumbing provides safe and code-compliant gas line installation. This involves running new gas lines from the main supply to all gas equipment. Our licensed plumbers confirm all connections are secure and tested for leaks, adhering to strict safety protocols for gas work.

Guest House, ADU and Addition Plumbing in Merced, CA

Guest houses and additions need plumbing that ties into the existing house without overloading old drain lines. We locate the existing sewer, check its condition with a camera and confirm there is enough fall to the new building. Supply lines can be branched from the main house or run as a separate service, depending on distance and pressure. We also handle the trenching between structures and restore the yard when we are done.

Final Trim and Fixture Setting in Merced

At trim we install toilets, faucets, garbage disposals, dishwashers, ice maker boxes and laundry connections. We work with fixtures from Moen, Delta, Kohler, American Standard and the other brands builders commonly specify, or with owner-supplied fixtures. Every fixture is checked for flow, drainage and leaks, and angle stops are set straight and tight. We finish by running every fixture at once to confirm the system drains and vents properly under load.

Underground and Under-Slab Plumbing in Merced

The underground phase sets the drain, waste and vent layout that every fixture in the house will rely on. We trench, bed and slope PVC or ABS drain lines at a minimum quarter inch per foot and protect every pipe that passes through the slab or foundation with sleeves. Many older homes here sit on raised foundations with crawlspaces, which make supply and drain repairs more accessible than slab work. We compact bedding carefully and avoid rigid points that could stress the pipe as the ground moves. Each line is water tested and left visible for the inspector before your concrete contractor pours.
