I found Drip Too Hard Plumbing while searching for an emergency plumber in Burbank and I’m so glad I did. I started with their $349.99 promo for a camera inspection and drain cleaning, and it turned into a full tankless water heater installation and sewer line repair all handled perfectly. From the start, they offered free estimates and explained everything clearly. Their website made it super easy to book, and it actually looks clean and modern way better than most plumbing sites. Erik and his team showed up fast, worked neatly, and you can tell they really care about customer service.If you ever need a Burbank plumber who’s honest, fast, and professional, Drip Too Hard Plumbing is the one to call.

I own a few condos off Kenneth Rd in Glendale, and Drip Too Hard Plumbing did a great job hydro jetting one of our main lines. The tech showed up on time, explained everything clearly, and got the line running perfect again. Clean, professional work — you can really see the DTHP quality. I’ll be using them for all my Glendale properties.

Finding a reliable plumber in Glendale isn't easy, but Drip Too Hard Plumbing really stands out. I had a gas line leak and a water heater issue at the same time, and their team handled both like true professionals. From the first call, they were responsive, honest, and clear about pricing. Erik and his crew showed up right on time, diagnosed the gas line problem, and made the repairs safely and efficiently. While they were here, they also repaired my water heater, tested everything twice, and made sure there were no more leaks before wrapping up. What impressed me most was how clean and organized they worked -- they even explained how to maintain the water heater to extend its life. If you're looking for a Glendale plumbing company that actually knows what they're doing and treats your home with respect, this is it. Real licensed plumbers who show up, fix the issue, and back up their work with confidence. Highly recommend them for gas line repairs, water heater service, and any emergency plumbing in Glendale. Worth every penny!!

Frequent Plumbing Concerns in San Gabriel

These issues come up again and again. We're ready for them in San Gabriel.

Water heater making popping or rumbling noises

Learn more

San Gabriel's moderately hard water causes sediment buildup in tank water heaters, creating popping sounds as water moves around mineral deposits. This is especially common in the area's 1950s-1970s homes with aging units.

Tree root intrusion in sewer lines

Learn more

Mature trees throughout San Gabriel neighborhoods like Garvey Ranch and the Mission District area send roots into original clay sewer lines. Post-war developments are particularly susceptible to this issue.

Galvanized pipes corroding and restricting flow

Learn more

Many San Gabriel homes built in the 1950s-1960s still have original galvanized plumbing that's now corroding internally. Combined with mineral deposits from hard water, this severely restricts water flow throughout the house.

Low water pressure throughout the house

Learn more

Older San Gabriel homes often experience pressure issues due to corroded galvanized pipes and mineral buildup from the area's hard water. This affects homes from Del Mar to the Jefferson Elementary area.
