Need a plumber in Riverview? This is home.

What plumbing in Riverview actually looks like.

Riverview is where Curtis Plumbing is based, so this isn't a market we drive into — it's where we live and work. We've watched Riverview grow from a quiet riverside town into one of the fastest-growing communities in Florida, now home to over 100,000 people. Founded in 1885 on the north shore of the Alafia River — with even older roots in the settlement of Peru on the south side, dating to the 1840s — Riverview has every kind of home, and we've worked just about all of them.

Older homes near the Alafia River

The original Riverview neighborhoods near the river include homes that go back decades, some still on their original galvanized or copper supply lines. After 40, 50, or more years, those lines corrode from the inside. Common signs: rust-tinted water, dropping pressure, recurring pinhole leaks. Once a home reaches that age, we usually recommend a whole-home repipe over endless patching — it ends the cycle of repeat failures.

The explosive new growth

Riverview's population grew by nearly 50% in a single decade, and that boom brought thousands of new homes off Big Bend Road, US-301, and around Lake Saint Charles. These newer builds have their own issues: builder-grade fixtures that fail after the warranty, tankless water heaters that need specialized service, and high-demand bathrooms in big family homes. We swap failing faucets and toilets, service tankless systems, and handle the fixture counts these homes carry.

The Hillsborough hard water problem

Whether your Riverview home is 60 years old or 6, Hillsborough's hard water scales up your water heater, crusts your fixtures, and shortens appliance life. A whole-home filtration or softener system protects everything downstream and pays for itself in the appliances it saves. We size systems to your actual water test, not a sales quota.

Commercial along US-301 and Big Bend

Riverview isn't just rooftops — there are more than 2,000 businesses here, concentrated along US-301, Big Bend Road, and the I-75 interchange. We handle commercial plumbing too: restaurants, retail, offices, and multi-tenant buildings. Plenty of residential plumbers won't, but since this is our home base, we cover the full range — your house and your business, same trusted crew.

The Alafia River, sandy soil, and slab construction

Riverview grew up around the Alafia River, and that shapes the plumbing. Sandy riverfront soil shifts over time, stressing underground supply and sewer lines, while Florida humidity hides slow leaks behind walls for months. Most homes here are slab-on-grade, so a failed line under the floor becomes a slab leak. We pinpoint and fix it without jackhammering your whole floor — and because we're right here, we get to you fast.
