Reviews from real customers
Real reviews from homeowners who trusted our licensed plumbers for professional, respectful service.
I am in the process of constructing a small ADU. My contractor ditched in the middle. He did plumbing very badly. When I contacted a few plumbing companies, most of them suggested to redo what he had already done to avoid problems in future. When I called Drop hard plumbing for their opinion, Mr Eric first came and examined everything and said he would send another expert to access the situation and then give a price. As said, he sent an expert who explained everything to me in the language I can understand what was the issue, what may be future issues if I continue to go with what the other plumber did, and what is the better solution. I liked his explanation and that is a deal breaker. I thought this company may be my best option and asked them to go further in their investigation before giving the price. Eric came with a camera and showed me wmthe issue and gave me a price. After a couple of days they finished the work to my satisfaction with a warranty of 5 years for parts and labor. I think that is a better part as I can call them if there is any issue with what they did. I strongly recommend Eric and his team for your plumbing issues. Ben Kaila La crescenta home owner
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.

Coverage PolicyDifferent types of shower valve we repair
Not every shower valve job is the same. We tailor the repair to your specific situation and keep it clean from start to finish—licensed plumbers, upfront pricing, and careful protection of your home.
Replacement of a worn or failed temperature control cartridge to restore proper hot and cold water mixing. This service addresses issues such as temperature fluctuations, loss of pressure balance, leaks behind the trim, or difficulty adjusting water temperature—without replacing the full shower valve.
Repair or replacement of a shower diverter cartridge that controls water flow between outlets such as the showerhead, tub spout, or handheld. Ideal for situations where water is leaking between fixtures, failing to switch outlets, or not fully engaging the selected function.
Specialized repair of multi-cartridge and thermostatic shower valve systems that use separate cartridges for temperature control, volume control, and diverter functions. This service restores precise temperature regulation and balanced flow while retaining the existing valve body—commonly used in high-end or custom shower systems.
Reasons Why You Would Need Shower Valve Repair
Common situations where installing shower valve repair is the right long-term solution for performance, efficiency, and reliability.
Shower dripping when turned off
Learn more
A dripping showerhead usually means the valve cartridge is worn. Repair stops water waste and prevents the constant drip sound that disrupts sleep.
Water temperature fluctuates during shower
Learn more
Sudden hot or cold bursts indicate a failing pressure-balance cartridge. Repair restores consistent temperature and prevents scalding risks.
Shower handle difficult to turn or adjust
Learn more
Stiff or loose handles often mean internal cartridge wear or mineral buildup. Repair restores smooth operation before the valve fails completely.
Low water pressure from showerhead only
Learn more
When only the shower has low pressure, the valve may have debris or a failing cartridge restricting flow. Repair often restores full pressure.
