I’ve used Drip Too Hard Plumbing several times, and they’ve become my go-to plumber in Glendale. They originally installed my water heater, and months later it stopped working no one’s fault, just one of those things that happens. What blew me away was how fast they responded. They came out the next day, honored their DTH Promise warranty, and had my water heater repaired without delay. No waiting a week or ten weeks they just got it done. While they were here, I decided to move forward with a water softener, a whole home water filter system, and a sewer line repair. They gave me clear package pricing that made everything simple and affordable. From the first call to the final cleanup, everything was professional, organized, and on time. If you’re searching for a Glendale plumber who stands behind their work, offers real warranties, and handles everything from water filtration systems to sewer line repairs, I highly recommend Drip Too Hard Plumbing. Reliable, fast, and absolutely top-tier service

We truly appreciate you recommending Drip Too Hard Plumbing — thank you for helping other homeowners find a trusted Glendale plumbing company they can rely on! 💧 — Drip Too Hard Plumbing | The DTH Promise | Licensed Glendale Plumber
We recently worked with Drip Too Hard Plumbing after our old water heater stopped working, and they were hands down the best plumber we've ever used in La Crescenta. From the first phone call, they were professional, upfront about our options, and gave us a reasonable estimate. We decided to go with a tankless water heater, and the whole installation was smooth -- they kept everything tidy and even showed us how to use the new system before they left. A few weeks later, we ran into a problem with our drains. They came out right away, handled the sewer line repair quickly, and there were no hidden costs or surprises. Everything's been working perfectly ever since. If you need a trustworthy plumber in La Crescenta, this is the team to call. Great service and worth every dollar for the peace of mind.

Thank you so much for the detailed review and for trusting us with both your tankless water heater install and the sewer line repair. I'm glad our team could keep everything tidy, walk you through the new system, and get those drains squared away without any surprises. We work hard to be upfront, fair, and fast—especially for our La Crescenta neighbors—and your peace of mind means everything to us. If you ever need anything down the road, we're here 24/7 and back our work with a 2-year workmanship warranty. — Harry, Owner Drip Too Hard Plumbing (Lic #980629)
Our water heater started leaking badly in La Crescenta, so we called Drip Too Hard Plumbing for emergency service. They showed up quickly, performed a full leak detection to make sure there weren’t other issues, and then repaired the damaged water heater. Everything was explained clearly, the pricing was fair, and the crew worked clean and professional. We’re very grateful for how fast they handled the emergency — highly recommend them for leak repair, leak detection, and any plumbing needs.

Thank you for sharing your experience! I’m glad our team was able to respond quickly, get the leak detection done, and repair the water heater before it caused more damage. We always aim to be clear on pricing and leave the space as clean as we found it, so it’s great to hear that came through. Really appreciate your recommendation for leak repair and detection in La Crescenta — means a lot to our small business. 🙏💧 — Harry, Owner, Drip Too Hard Plumbing
Why Encino Residents Call Us
Our team knows the common culprits in the Encino area.
Galvanized pipes corroding and restricting flow
Learn more
Many of Encino's 1950s-70s ranch homes still have original galvanized pipes that are now severely corroded. These pipes restrict water flow and cause pressure issues throughout homes in neighborhoods like Amestoy Estates and Royal Oaks.
Tree root intrusion in sewer lines
Learn more
Encino's mature oak, eucalyptus, and palm trees create constant root intrusion problems in cast iron sewer lines. This is especially common in established neighborhoods with older landscaping along Ventura Boulevard and the hillside areas.
Water heater making popping or rumbling noises
Learn more
LADWP's moderately hard water causes rapid sediment buildup in water heaters throughout Encino. The mineral deposits create popping sounds and reduce efficiency, particularly affecting older units in ranch-style homes.
Slab leak causing foundation concerns
Learn more
Encino's concrete slab foundation homes, especially in Country Estates and South of Ventura areas, frequently experience slab leaks due to shifting soil and aging copper pipes embedded in concrete.
