About Centerville, Fremont, CA
Centerville is one of the oldest neighborhoods in Fremont — and one of the East Bay’s oldest settlements, period. Founded in 1850 as a farming community and a stagecoach stop on the Oakland–San Jose route, it grew into the commercial and judicial center of Washington Township once the railroad arrived in the late 1800s, complete with its own Alameda County courthouse. You can still see that history on the ground today: the 1906 Bank of Centerville building, the historic Centerville Train Depot, and the Centerville Pioneer Cemetery on Peralta Boulevard, established in 1855 and listed on the California Register of Historic Resources. The neighborhood was even the birthplace of the “California 100,” a volunteer Civil War cavalry unit.
In 1956, Centerville joined four other townships — Niles, Irvington, Warm Springs, and Mission San Jose — to incorporate as the City of Fremont. Today it’s one of Fremont’s most walkable, densely populated districts, with roughly 11,000–16,000 residents depending on how the boundary is drawn, a weekly farmers market, and easy access to the Fremont Hub shopping center. Housing here is genuinely mixed: original early-1900s bungalows and Victorians near the historic core, mid-century tract homes filling out the surrounding blocks, and newer infill construction and multi-family/apartment buildings on top of that. ZIP code 94536 covers most of the district.
That housing mix is exactly why Centerville plumbing calls are rarely one-size-fits-all — and why it helps to have a plumber who actually adjusts for it.
Plumbing Work We Do Most in Centerville Older homes near the historic core (pre-1950s bungalows & Victorians)
- Galvanized pipe replacement and repiping — original supply lines in this part of Centerville are well past their intended lifespan and prone to internal corrosion and low water pressure
- Cast iron and clay sewer lateral repair — mature street trees along the older blocks mean root intrusion is a recurring issue
- Water heater replacement in tight, original utility closets
Mid-century tract homes
- Slab leak detection — a lot of Centerville’s mid-century stock is slab-on-grade, and a leak here shows up as an unexplained water bill spike or a warm patch on the floor before you ever see water
- Drain cleaning for original kitchen and bathroom lines carrying decades of buildup
- Fixture and valve replacement as original hardware ages out
Mid-century tract homes
- Builder-grade fixture and garbage disposal repair
- Water heater and tankless system service
- Leak detection and unit-to-unit issues common in condos and apartments
Whatever era your Centerville home falls into, one call gets you a plumber who knows which of these it’s likely to be before we even walk in the door.

EXCELLENT Based on 79 reviews Posted on Google Steven MenkeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A good Plumber to know. Ray did a great job. No question. Ray came right out and fixed my problem and will call him again for sure.Posted on Google Kyle JohnsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently hired Red Tulip Plumbing in Union City to replace a toilet and install a new kitchen faucet, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the results. From the initial call to the final cleanup, the entire experience was professional, efficient, and stress-free. The technician arrived on time, explained the process clearly, and got to work right away. The toilet replacement was done quickly and cleanly, with no mess left behind. The kitchen faucet installation was also handled with care—everything was aligned perfectly and works flawlessly. What stood out the most was their attention to detail and respect for my home. They wore shoe covers, laid down protective mats, and made sure everything was tested before they left. If you're looking for reliable, honest, and skilled plumbers in the Union City area, I highly recommend Red Tulip Plumbing. Their prices are fair, their work is top-notch, and their customer service is outstanding.Posted on Google Jameson SwanagonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kind, helpful experts. Great problem solvers, excellent workPosted on Google Drew FittingTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have so many great things to say about Ray! First off, I had to shut off my water, so I really needed him to come over today, and he was here within 2 hours (every other plumber said 2 days). I had been replacing the valves under my kitchen sink, but the pipe was so rusted that it broke off, leaving part still in the wall. Ray had the right tool to get that broken pipe out, then he installed the new 'nipple' pipe and the valves that I already had. It only took him maybe 20 minutes, probably a very small job for him, but it was so very important to me! He was very friendly, did the job easily and quickly, and cleaned up perfectly after the job was done. If I could, I would give Ray 7 stars, but 5 was the most I could give. If you have any plumbing problems, Ray and Red Tulip Plumbing are the ones to call first!!Posted on Google Bharat BabooTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
