Phoenix sits on OR-99 between Medford and Talent, and Bear Creek runs through town. In September 2020, the Almeda Fire swept north along Bear Creek and burned through Phoenix. Today, rebuilt homes stand beside houses from the 1990s and earlier. Both kinds of homes get clogged drains and water heater trouble, and winter freezes can split exposed pipes.
Hukill's is a plumber in Medford, a short drive north of Phoenix on OR-99. Phoenix is part of our service area. Our plumbers handle drain cleaning, water heaters, sewer lines and leak repairs for homes and businesses here. Call or text (541) 734-9000, and we look at the job and put the quote in writing.

The fire started north of Ashland and ran north along the Bear Creek corridor, the city's strategic plan says. It burned through Talent and Phoenix and stopped near the south edge of Medford. The city's 2021 count of losses inside Phoenix came to 549 homes and 41 businesses. Just outside town, the area toward Medford lost more than 1,300 homes, the city told lawmakers in 2023.
Phoenix set up a fast permit process for replacement homes. By April 2023, the city had issued permits to replace 99 percent of the single-family homes lost in town. Census estimates show the population dipped to about 4,250 in 2022, then climbed to about 4,900 by 2025.
The result is a town of mixed ages. Census estimates show half the homes in Phoenix were built before about 1994. Older homes can bring worn valves and tired water heaters. When a heater quits, we handle water heater repair and replacement.
Manufactured homes took the hardest hit in the fire. The city's 2021 count lists 284 manufactured homes lost, more than half of all homes lost in town. In 2023, the city said much work remained to replace them.
Census estimates count roughly one home in eight in Phoenix as a mobile home. Setting a manufactured home here takes a city building permit. Once it is set, the water and drain lines run underneath, where winter air can reach them. Our plumbers repair water lines and drain lines under manufactured homes and site-built homes alike.
Rogue Valley Sewer Services (RVSS) runs the public sewer in Phoenix. Its online map shows whether sewer runs near a given property. The pipe from each house out to the public main is called the service lateral.
The NRCS soil survey maps much of Phoenix as Ruch silt loam and Medford silty clay loam. NRCS rates both soils as limited for houses because of shrink-swell. The Medford soil can also hold a water table about 5 feet down from December to April. On the hill slopes, Brader soils run shallow over sedimentary rock.
Along Bear Creek, the survey maps sandy creek-bottom soils that flood on occasion. FEMA maps flood zones along both Bear Creek and Coleman Creek in town. The city notes that most of 24-acre Blue Heron Park sits in the Bear Creek floodway. When drains back up again and again, sewer line repair starts with finding where the line failed.
Phoenix buys its water wholesale from Medford Water, whose main source is Big Butte Springs. The City of Phoenix runs a residential backflow program through Public Works. Landscape irrigation systems always need a backflow device, and the city wants each one tested at least once a year.
The city uses a contracted tester for these checks, and owners may opt out and hire their own. If a device fails its test or cracks in a freeze, our plumbing repair team can repair or replace it. We also fix toilets, faucets, shower valves and pressure reducing valves.
The city bills water every month, so compare each bill with the last one. A sudden jump with no new use can point to a hidden leak. Our leak detection work finds the leak first, and then we make the repair.

Got our water heater changed out this evening and the whole process was smooth. From setting up an appointment, communication, and the service. Marcos our technician that installed the water heater was great and made sure we got everything we needed in a timely manner. Recommend hukills to anyone looking for a quick or detailed repair!
Brandon and Colton did an outstanding job fixing our clogged sinks. They arrived within three hours of our call, were professional and courteous, and quickly diagnosed and resolved the issue. They explained everything clearly and left the work area clean when they were finished. We really appreciated their prompt response and excellent service. I highly recommend Hukill's to anyone looking for reliable, efficient plumbers.
After we had our septic tank pumped by Tristan this morning and then Brandon,Kayden and "G" the excavator operator came out to do an septic line investigation. I was very appreciative of them explaining and answering all my questions. I would definitely request them to help us again. Thank you all for all your hard work.
Excellent commercial service from Hukill's. Zack arrived right on time, worked efficiently, and kept us fully updated every step of the way. He took great care of our property and treated our business with total professionalism. We will definitely use them again.
Hukills is great, our go to plumber going forward. We had a major water line break at our house on a Saturday evening. They were able to quickly dispatch a plumber who immediately identified the issue and fixed the cracked pipe and associated joints. Couldn't recommend them more. Thank you Marcos!
When we found out we had a broken pipe under our house, I called Hukill's to give me an estimate for the repair. The response time on the bid was pretty quick and they were able to schedule the job later the same week. Tristan did a great job taking care of pumping out the standing water and was very personable. Sal and Miguel were absolutely phenomenal. The crawl space is pretty tight, and those two men had their work cut out for them in getting the area cleaned up and prepped for the plumber. They were incredibly hardworking and super friendly. We were very impressed. Next, Wes and Isaac came to do the actual plumbing repair. They were outstanding at quickly addressing the problem and keeping us up to date on what they were doing. Fantastic job! We were very impressed with the whole crew.
