I needed hydro jetting at my home in Burbank after my sewer line backed up and called Drip Too Hard Plumbing. Erik came out on a Sunday and showed up right on time, which I really appreciated. He explained the hydro cleaning process clearly and used professional equipment to fully clear the main sewer line. Everything is draining perfectly now. If you're looking for a reliable plumber in Burbank for hydro jetting or sewer cleaning, I definitely recommend Erik and Drip Too Hard Plumbing.

I live near Super King Market on Glenoaks, and I recently had Drip Too Hard Plumbing out for a drain cleaning. I’m really glad I called them. The drain had been backing up and draining slowly, and they were able to clear it out quickly without any mess. They showed up on time, explained what was causing the issue, and made sure everything was flowing properly before leaving. The whole process was smooth, professional, and stress-free. You can tell they actually care about doing the job right, not just rushing through it. If you’re in the Glenoaks area and need a reliable plumber for drain cleaning, I’d definitely recommend Drip Too Hard Plumbing. I’ll be calling them again if anything else comes up.

I live in Burbank near Castaway, and I had a serious sewer emergency that came out of nowhere. Multiple drains backed up at once and it quickly became clear this wasn’t a simple clog. Drip Too Hard Plumbing responded fast and got straight to work. After opening the line, they showed me just how bad it was the sewer line was completely packed with roots. It was honestly shocking how much root intrusion had grown into the pipe over time. They explained everything clearly, removed the damaged section, and completed the sewer line repair the right way. What stood out most was how calm, professional, and organized they were during an emergency situation. No guessing, no upselling just clear answers and real solutions. Once the repair was done, everything started flowing normally again. If you’re in Burbank and ever deal with a sewer backup or root-infested line, I highly recommend Drip Too Hard Plumbing. They handled a stressful emergency with confidence and care.

Rancho Palos Verdes Plumbing Problems We Solve

From older pipes to local water conditions, we've seen it all across Rancho Palos Verdes.

Slab leak causing foundation concerns

Learn more

Rancho Palos Verdes' hillside terrain causes foundation settling that can crack concrete slabs and damage pipes underneath. Our specialized leak detection equipment quickly locates these hidden leaks before they cause major structural damage.

Tree root intrusion in sewer lines

Learn more

Mature trees and landscaping in neighborhoods like Miraleste and Golden Cove send roots seeking moisture into sewer lines. We provide thorough root removal and preventive treatments to keep your drains flowing freely.

Water heater making popping or rumbling noises

Learn more

Cal Water's moderately hard mineral content accelerates sediment buildup in water heaters throughout Rancho Palos Verdes. Regular flushing and maintenance prevent these noises and extend your unit's lifespan.

Low water pressure throughout the house

Learn more

Hillside elevation changes and aging galvanized pipes in older Rancho Palos Verdes homes can cause pressure issues. We diagnose whether it's pipe corrosion, pressure regulator failure, or mineral buildup affecting your water flow.
