James B.Verified reviewOct 26, 2025
Yelp★★★★★

Owning multiple properties, I've worked with a lot of plumbing companies but Drip Too Hard Plumbing in Glendale is on another level. They've installed and serviced several tankless water heaters for me, repaired an older water heater that another company said couldn't be fixed, and recently completed a sewer line installation that was done clean, fast, and fully inspected without a single issue. Erik and his team communicate clearly, show up when they say they will, and treat every property like it's their own. The work is professional, their prices are fair, and they always leave the site spotless. I now call them for all my Glendale plumbing needs trustworthy, licensed, and just solid people all around. Highly recommend them to any property owner looking for long-term quality work.

I was searching for a plumber near me that made it easy to book online, and stumbled upon Drip Too Hard Plumbing honestly, they were the only company with a fast, modern website that showed real prices and offered instant online booking. A few months ago, Harry and Jon came out to our home in Emerald Isle near the Chevy Chase Country Club to inspect our sewer line through the inside access point. They arrived right on time, wore shoe covers the whole visit, and clearly showed us the root blockage on camera. They completed the sewer line repair the same day, and even though they had to dig in the front yard, they cleaned up so well you’d never know any work had been done. Since that first repair, we’ve also had them handle a bathroom plumbing remodel and a water softener installation, and once again, the experience was flawless. Their DTH Promise fast response, honest communication, and real warranty coverage proved true from start to finish. It made us feel safe about the work and confident that we finally found a reliable Glendale plumber we can count on for any future Glendale plumbing service needs. The pricing was very fair for the quality and professionalism they deliver.

Common Plumbing Issues in Manhattan Beach

Our team knows the common culprits in the Manhattan Beach area.

Water heater making popping or rumbling noises

Learn more

Manhattan Beach's moderately hard water accelerates sediment buildup in tank water heaters. The mineral deposits create popping sounds as water heats, reducing efficiency and requiring professional flushing or replacement.

Tree root intrusion in sewer lines

Learn more

Mature trees throughout Manhattan Beach neighborhoods, especially in the Tree Section and Hill Section, commonly send roots into aging sewer laterals. These roots cause recurring backups and require professional cleaning or line replacement.

Galvanized pipes corroding and restricting flow

Learn more

Many Manhattan Beach homes built in the 1950s-60s still have original galvanized plumbing that's now heavily corroded. Salt air exposure accelerates this process, causing low water pressure and discolored water throughout the home.

Hard water causing scale buildup

Learn more

West Basin Municipal Water District supplies moderately hard water to Manhattan Beach, causing mineral scale in fixtures, appliances, and water heaters. This buildup reduces efficiency and shortens equipment lifespan without proper treatment.
