The same licensed crew serves Sierra Madre and surrounding cities. Here's what customers are saying.
We manage a hillside apartment building in Burbank, and when the shower drains started backing up throughout the building, it quickly turned into an emergency. We searched for a plumber near me and called Drip Too Hard Plumbing, and they responded fast. They were professional, calm, and clearly experienced with multi-unit drain issues. They performed a thorough emergency drain cleaning, explained what was causing the backup, and made sure everything was flowing properly before leaving. The team was respectful to tenants and worked efficiently to minimize disruption. It's a huge relief knowing we have a reliable Burbank plumber we can call when problems affect an entire building. Fast response, honest service, and quality work. Highly recommended.
Terrible. Needs new equipment. Quoted me 900 and another plumber came and did the job for 85. The other plumber solved the issue in 10 minutes. Plus he got here late and was on his phone even though we needed the job done asap.
Years of local experience means we know what to expect in Sierra Madre.
Sierra Madre's craftsman homes from the 1920s-1940s commonly have galvanized supply lines showing severe corrosion. The moderately hard water accelerates this deterioration, causing low pressure and discolored water throughout Old Town and Baldwin Avenue neighborhoods.
Mature oak and sycamore trees throughout Sierra Madre's canyon areas aggressively seek water sources, frequently invading aging cast iron sewer lines. Properties near Bean Canyon and along Grandview Avenue are particularly susceptible to costly root blockages.
Sierra Madre's moderately hard water from California American Water causes significant sediment buildup in tank water heaters. The mineral deposits create loud popping sounds as they heat and cool, requiring regular flushing and earlier replacement.
Sierra Madre's hillside terrain and shifting foothill soils put stress on under-slab plumbing, particularly in Canyonlands and upper Alegria Avenue areas. Copper pipes are especially vulnerable to pinhole leaks from ground movement and water chemistry.
