I called Drip Too Hard Plumbing after searching for a plumber in Burbank. We just moved near the Magnolia Park area, and of course, the old plumbing decided to act up right away but something good came out of it! I was so impressed by how professional and fast they were. From booking online to the final cleanup, everything was effortless. Their website is clean and modern, almost like dealing with the Apple of plumbing companies. They hydro-jetted our old sewer line, installed a new tankless water heater, and even ran a new gas line to bring everything up to code No mess, no surprises just honest, above board service from people who truly care about their work. If you need a plumber in the Toluca Lake or Burbank area, I couldn’t recommend them more.

Why Sylmar Residents Call Us

Years of local experience means we know what to expect in Sylmar.

Galvanized pipes corroding and restricting flow

Learn more

Many Sylmar homes built in the 1950s-70s still have original galvanized pipes that are now severely corroded. These aging pipes restrict water flow and cause brown water, particularly common in the Olive View and Veterans Park neighborhoods.

Hard water causing scale buildup

Learn more

LADWP's hard water supply creates significant mineral deposits throughout Sylmar homes. Scale buildup clogs showerheads, reduces appliance efficiency, and creates white residue on fixtures, requiring water softening solutions for most properties.

Tree root intrusion in sewer lines

Learn more

Sylmar's mature street trees and established landscaping create ongoing root intrusion problems in sewer lines. Clay pipes in older neighborhoods are particularly vulnerable, causing recurring backups and requiring regular root cutting maintenance.

Water heater making popping or rumbling noises

Learn more

Hard water accelerates sediment accumulation in Sylmar water heaters, creating popping sounds as the unit struggles to heat through mineral buildup. Regular flushing is essential to prevent premature failure in local units.
