I was looking for a reliable plumber in Tujunga after dealing with both a sewer backup and issues with my tankless water heater. Drip Too Hard Plumbing came through big time. They did a thorough sewer inspection, showed me the footage, and handled the sewer line repair quickly. On top of that, they also fixed my tankless water heater repair the same day, which saved me from having to call someone else. It’s rare to find a company that handles emergencies this smoothly — if you ever need an emergency plumber in Tujunga, these are the people to call.

I called Drip Too Hard Plumbing for an emergency gas line repair in Glendale, and they showed up the same day within an hour. The plumber was extremely professional, hooked up the gas line and had all the parts ready to make the repair right on the spot. You can tell they take safety seriously — they pressure-tested the line and walked me through everything before turning the gas back on. If you ever need a plumber in Glendale who actually answers fast and gets the job done right the first time, this is the company to call. Definitely the best Glendale plumber experience I’ve had — honest, clean, and backed their work with a lifetime warranty.

I hired Drip Too Hard Plumbing for a sewer line camera inspection at my property in Glendale near Pacific, and they were hands-down the most reliable Glendale plumbers I’ve used. They arrived exactly on time fully delivering on their DTHPromise and kept everything clean and organized. They walked me through the whole sewer line on camera, explained every detail clearly, and gave honest recommendations without any pressure. If you’re looking for a trustworthy Glendale plumber or searching for a plumber Glendale homeowners can depend on, DTHP is the team you want. Highly recommended!

Top Plumbing Issues in Silver Lake

These issues come up again and again. We're ready for them in Silver Lake.

Galvanized pipes corroding and restricting flow

Learn more

Silver Lake's 1920s-1940s craftsman homes commonly have original galvanized supply lines that corrode over time. The moderately hard water accelerates this process, leading to low pressure and discolored water throughout these historic properties.

Tree root intrusion in sewer lines

Learn more

Mature street trees throughout Silver Lake, especially around the reservoir area and Micheltorena neighborhood, send roots into aging clay and cast iron sewer laterals. These invasive roots cause recurring backups and require professional removal.

Slab leak causing foundation concerns

Learn more

Silver Lake's hillside properties are particularly susceptible to slab leaks as foundations settle on the sloped terrain. These hidden leaks can cause significant water damage and foundation issues if not detected early with professional equipment.

Water heater making popping or rumbling noises

Learn more

LADWP's moderately hard water causes mineral sediment buildup in water heaters throughout Silver Lake. This buildup creates popping and rumbling sounds as water boils around the sediment layer, reducing efficiency and shortening the unit's lifespan.
