Burbank Sewer & Drain Problems We Solve

Local conditions create unique sewer & drain challenges. Here's what we see in Burbank.

Tree root intrusion in sewer lines

Learn more

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

Main sewer line backup

Learn more

Aging sewer infrastructure in Burbank's post-war neighborhoods can cause main line backups, especially during heavy rains. Homes built before 1970 in areas like Magnolia Park often experience these issues due to deteriorated clay or cast iron pipes.

Cracked, broken, or collapsed drain pipe

Learn more

Burbank's older cast iron and clay sewer pipes are prone to cracking and collapse after 60-80 years of service. Foundation settling in the valley's clay soil conditions contributes to pipe stress and failure.

Severely deteriorated or failing drain lines

Learn more

Many Burbank homes built in the 1940s-1960s have original sewer lines reaching end-of-life. The city requires sewer lateral inspections for pre-1980 homes upon sale, often revealing extensive deterioration requiring replacement.
