Emergency Plumbing
How fast can a plumber arrive in North Hollywood?
Most NoHo emergencies are answered within 25–60 minutes, depending on traffic on the 101, 170, and our current workload.
What counts as a plumbing emergency in North Hollywood?
Active water leaks, sewage backing up, gas smells, no running water, no hot water, or anything causing property damage should be treated as an emergency.
Water Heaters
Do you repair tankless water heaters in North Hollywood?
Yes — we diagnose and repair most major tankless brands and recommend replacement when the unit is failing repeatedly or parts are obsolete.
When should I replace my water heater instead of repairing it?
If the tank is 10+ years old, leaking from the body, or repairs cost more than about 40% of a new unit, replacement is usually the better investment.

Yes — replacements are permitted and brought to code with proper venting, pan, drain, expansion tank, seismic strapping, and gas shutoff upgrades.
Drains & Sewer
Do you offer professional drain cleaning in North Hollywood?
Yes — we clear kitchen, bathroom, and main line clogs in NoHo apartments, condos, and homes and confirm proper flow before we leave.
When is hydro jetting recommended in North Hollywood?
Hydro jetting is ideal for heavy grease, sludge, or scale in sewer lines, especially for repeat backups in older North Hollywood buildings.

Yes — we run a sewer camera to locate roots, breaks, offsets, or bellies and document line condition before major repairs or replacement.
