Heating and Plumbing for Berkeley's Older Homes

Berkeley's older homes are some of the most distinctive in the East Bay. Craftsman bungalows in Elmwood and Thousand Oaks, brown shingles tucked into the Claremont Hills, stucco Mediterraneans in South Berkeley, and the older homes of Kensington, each with its own construction era and its own set of mechanical quirks. A lot of these houses are still running original hydronic systems that haven't had a specialist's hands on them in decades.

  • Hydronic heating, boilers, and radiators
  • Whole-house plumbing repair and repipes
  • Air-to-water heat pump and solar integration

Every System Gets the Glow Standard

From radiant hydronic heat to modern plumbing, we bring two decades of hands-on expertise to every system in your home. Each service ends with our Afterglow Finish, a final walkthrough to make sure everything flows and glows.

Mniska found a leak that I did not know was there. He fixed it and showed me the pipe that had deteriorated. He goes above and beyond.

I was so impressed with Mniska/Afterglow's communication and professionalism. He explained everything in detail, made sure I understood the plan and went above and beyond with the work he did. It is hard to find someone you trust to do work in your home, especially someone with expertise in radiant heating systems. I am so fortunate to have found him and look forward to continuing to work with him.

Mniska was amazing, he helped set up our water filter and was great to work with. He was extra clean and tidy, was thoughtful and provided excellent ideas and information including a video to make sure I knew what to do in the future. He was quick to respond to my inquiries and did a quick job. I will be using him moving forward for all my plumbing needs. I highly recommend him.
