I recently had to deal with an unexpected plumbing emergency at one of my rental units in the Starlight Hills area of Burbank off Kenneth Rd, and Drip Too Hard Plumbing came through for me in a huge way. My tenant called late in the evening about a major backup, and I needed someone trustworthy to handle it fast since I couldn’t get there myself. I searched for a Burbank plumber and reached out to DTHP, and they immediately set the tone with clear communication and real professionalism. They went out the same day, performed a full emergency sewer line inspection, showed my tenant exactly what was happening in the line, and then completed a hydro jetting service on the spot to clear the issue before it got any worse. What stood out most was how calm, respectful, and transparent they were with both me and my tenant no pressure, no fear tactics, just real solutions. You can genuinely feel their DTHPromise in the way they operate: on time, clean work, straight answers, and no surprises on the bill. If you’re anywhere in Burbank and searching for a plumber near me, or need help with a sewer backup, drain issue, or hydro jetting, I honestly can’t recommend Drip Too Hard Plumbing enough. They made a stressful situation incredibly easy, and my tenant was taken care of from start to finish.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share this experience. We know how stressful it can be when a tenant calls with a sewer issue, especially after hours, so we’re really glad our team was able to respond quickly and get everything handled the same day. Our goal is always to make both property owners and tenants feel supported, informed, and taken care of that’s the heart of the DTHPromise, and it means a lot that it came through for you on this job. We appreciate you trusting us with your Burbank property in the Starlight Hills area, and we’re always here whenever you or your tenants need anything. Thank you again for being such a great client. -Drip Too Hard Plumbing team
I recently hired Drip Too Hard Plumbing for a repair on the water heater line at my home near the Hollywood Hills, and they exceeded every expectation. They reconnected the PEX line to the exposed copper feeding into my water heater, and the work was clean, secure, and clearly done by pros who know what they’re doing. As promised under their DTHPromise, they arrived right on time, were extremely customer-friendly, and walked me through every part of the repair so I fully understood what was happening. It’s rare to find Burbank plumbers who deliver this level of professionalism, communication, and quality. If you need reliable, honest plumbing work done especially anything involving water heaters or line repairs Drip Too Hard Plumbing is the team you want. Highly recommended.

Thank you so much for the amazing review and for trusting Drip Too Hard Plumbing with your water-heater line repair near the Hollywood Hills. Reconnecting the PEX line to the exposed copper feeding your water heater is a detailed job, and we’re glad our workmanship and communication stood out. At DTHP, our DTHPromise is simple — on time, clean, customer-friendly, and transparent every step of the way. Hearing that you felt informed and taken care of through the whole repair means everything to us. Homeowners searching for Burbank plumbers, Hollywood Hills plumbing repair, or expert help with water heater lines and PEX-to-copper connections deserve a team they can count on, and we’re grateful you chose us for the job. If you ever need anything — from leak repairs to tankless installs — we’re always here to help. Thank you again for the recommendation! — Drip Too Hard Plumbing 🛠️💧
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

Ben, thank you for taking the time to share your experience in such detail. We know how stressful it can be when a project gets left unfinished, so we're glad Eric and the team could step in, explain everything clearly, and complete the ADU plumbing with a long-term warranty you can rely on. It means a lot to earn your trust, and we'll always be here if you need us in the future.
Why Sierra Madre Residents Call Us
Years of local experience means we know what to expect in Sierra Madre.
Galvanized pipes corroding and restricting flow
Learn more
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.
Tree root intrusion in sewer lines
Learn more
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.
Water heater making popping or rumbling noises
Learn more
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.
Slab leak causing foundation concerns
Learn more
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.
