Smelly Mel's is a family of engineers who've kept the Bay Area's homes and businesses flowing for three decades. Funny name, serious work.
Smelly Mel's started in 1993 as a family business, and the family are engineers. That background shapes how we work: we diagnose the real problem, size the fix correctly, and document the job properly. The funny name stuck. So did the standards.
Three decades later we're still family-run, still answering the phone ourselves, and still sending the same crews you've come to trust into homes and businesses across San Francisco and the Peninsula.
Written, upfront estimates every time, no surprises on the invoice.
The right fix the first time, sized and documented by engineers.
