Families throughout the Hawthorne region share their experience with our licensed, insured team.
Erik and the team did a amazing job on a drain cleaning service he cleared the drain clog in 5 mins for the price advertise super easy and head ache free plumbing should always be like the my new go to plumber in La crescenta if you ever need emergency plumbing Erik and Harry are the team!!!!

Leo, thanks for the awesome feedback! We're glad Erik and Harry could get your drain cleared quickly and make the whole process headache-free. It means a lot to hear we're your new go-to plumbers in La Crescenta — we'll always be here whenever you need us, day or night.
We manage a hillside apartment building in Burbank, and when the shower drains started backing up throughout the building, it quickly turned into an emergency. We searched for a plumber near me and called Drip Too Hard Plumbing, and they responded fast. They were professional, calm, and clearly experienced with multi-unit drain issues. They performed a thorough emergency drain cleaning, explained what was causing the backup, and made sure everything was flowing properly before leaving. The team was respectful to tenants and worked efficiently to minimize disruption. It’s a huge relief knowing we have a reliable Burbank plumber we can call when problems affect an entire building. Fast response, honest service, and quality work. Highly recommended.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience. We understand how stressful it can be when a plumbing issue affects an entire apartment building, especially in a hillside property where drain systems can be more complex. We’re glad our team was able to respond quickly, identify the cause of the backup, and get everything flowing properly again while minimizing disruption for your tenants. Providing fast, reliable emergency service and clear communication is something we take seriously. We truly appreciate your trust and recommendation, and we’re always here if you need us in the future. — Drip Too Hard Plumbing

We really appreciate you taking the time to share this! Emergencies can be stressful, so we're glad we could get there quickly, explain the valve repair options, and give you peace of mind about your water heater as well. Harry and the team will be thrilled to hear your feedback. Thank you for trusting us not only for this job but also for future sewer line work — it means a lot to us. We're excited about our rebrand and grateful to have great customers like you supporting us.
Common Plumbing Issues in Hawthorne
Every area has its quirks. These are the issues we handle regularly in Hawthorne.
Galvanized pipes corroding and restricting flow
Learn more
Many Hawthorne homes built in the 1940s-60s still have original galvanized pipes that are now severely corroded. These aging pipes reduce water pressure and cause rusty water, especially common in Holly Glen and Ramona Village neighborhoods.
Water heater making popping or rumbling noises
Learn more
Hawthorne's moderately hard water from California Water Service causes mineral buildup in water heater tanks. The sediment creates popping sounds as it superheats, reducing efficiency and requiring regular maintenance or replacement.
Tree root intrusion in sewer lines
Learn more
Mature street trees throughout Hawthorne, particularly along Prairie Avenue and in established neighborhoods, send roots into aging clay sewer lines. This is especially problematic in older areas with original 1950s plumbing infrastructure.
Low water pressure throughout the house
Learn more
Corroded galvanized supply lines in Hawthorne's post-war housing developments restrict water flow significantly. This issue is most common in Eucalyptus Village and other mid-century tract home areas with original plumbing.
