Plumas Lake's first master plan was approved in 1993, and construction began in 2003. Census estimates show more than half of its homes were built between 2000 and 2009, with another wave from 2020 on. Almost every home is a detached single-family house, and about nine in ten are owner-occupied. The community grew nearly 39% between 2010 and 2020, to about 8,100 people.
That gives Plumas Lake a predictable repair pattern. Homes from the mid-2000s are now 15 to 20 years old, about the age when builder-grade parts give out: faucets and toilets start leaking, carpet wears through, original fans and fixtures look dated, and fiberglass tub-and-shower units crack or stain. Many owners use the moment to upgrade instead of repair. If your neighborhood has an HOA, check whether exterior work like a deck needs its approval before we start.
Permits in Plumas Lake
Plumas Lake is unincorporated, so permits go through the Yuba County Building Department at 915 8th Street in Marysville. Like-for-like swaps of a faucet, toilet or light fixture usually don't need one. New decks, bathroom remodels that move plumbing, and new circuits usually do. We tell you which applies and pull the permit when it's needed.

Plumas Lake is in the southern tip of Yuba County, near where the Feather and Bear Rivers meet, about ten miles south of Marysville off Highway 70. The area, then called Arboga, flooded in 1986 and 1997. Its levees have since been rebuilt to a 200-year standard, and FEMA accredited the community as moderate-to-low flood risk in 2019. We also work in nearby Olivehurst, Linda and Marysville.
Plumas Lake FAQ

Yes. Many Plumas Lake owners bundle fixture swaps, fans, lighting and small repairs into one visit. Send the list and we'll price it together.

Yes. Two-story gutters and roof valleys are cleaned with the right ladders and safety setup, and the downspouts are flushed.
