I needed hydro jetting at my home in Burbank after my sewer line backed up and called Drip Too Hard Plumbing. Erik came out on a Sunday and showed up right on time, which I really appreciated. He explained the hydro cleaning process clearly and used professional equipment to fully clear the main sewer line. Everything is draining perfectly now. If you're looking for a reliable plumber in Burbank for hydro jetting or sewer cleaning, I definitely recommend Erik and Drip Too Hard Plumbing.

We had a full house drain backup that hit us out of nowhere, and it turned into a real emergency fast. Toilets, sinks everything was backing up at the same time. We’re in Burbank, near Castaway, and it was one of those situations where you can’t wait until the next day. I called Drip Too Hard Plumbing, and they responded immediately. They showed up prepared, explained what was going on step by step, and got straight to work. You could tell they’ve handled these kinds of backups before calm, professional, and focused on fixing the problem the right way, not just rushing through it. They ran the drain line, cleared the blockage, and made sure the entire system was flowing properly again before packing up. No mess left behind, no pressure, no upselling — just solid work when we needed it most. If you’re in Burbank and need a plumber near you, especially for an emergency drain issue or a whole house backup, I highly recommend Drip Too Hard Plumbing. They came through when it mattered.

Top Plumbing Issues in Burbank

These issues come up again and again. We're ready for them in Burbank.

Galvanized pipes corroding and restricting flow

Learn more

Many Burbank homes built in the 1940s-1960s still have original galvanized pipes that are now severely corroded. These aging pipes restrict water flow and cause discolored water, particularly common in Magnolia Park and Rancho neighborhoods.

Tree root intrusion in sewer lines

Learn more

Burbank's mature olive, palm, and pepper trees throughout established neighborhoods create persistent root intrusion problems in sewer lines. The city's older cast iron sewer pipes are particularly vulnerable to root penetration.

Water heater making popping or rumbling noises

Learn more

Burbank Water and Power's moderately hard water causes accelerated sediment buildup in water heaters, creating popping and rumbling noises. This issue is especially common in the city's post-war homes with older water heaters.

Low water pressure throughout the house

Learn more

Mineral deposits from Burbank's hard water combined with corroded galvanized pipes in older homes create widespread low pressure issues. This problem affects many homes in Downtown Burbank and the Media District built before 1970.

Burbank Plumbing FAQs

Common questions from Burbank homeowners about our plumbing services, pricing, and service area.

Many Burbank homes were built in the early to mid-20th century, which means they may have outdated plumbing materials like galvanized steel or cast iron pipes. These can corrode over time and cause leaks, low water pressure, or even complete pipe failures. Our Burbank plumbers are experts at identifying and repairing these common issues in older homes.
