I recently hired Drip Too Hard Plumbing for a Google Shower Valve upgrade at my home in Burbank Hillside, and I couldn’t be happier with the service. Harry arrived right on time, was professional, and handled the installation with great attention to detail. He made sure everything was working perfectly and even walked me through how the new valve operates. As someone who’s used multiple plumbers in the area, I can confidently say this team is reliable, knowledgeable, and courteous. If you’re looking for a skilled plumber near me in Burbank or the Hillside area, I highly recommend Drip Too Hard Plumbing. From smart home upgrades to standard plumbing services, they provide excellent service every time. Harry and the team make sure the job is done right, on time, and stress-free. Definitely a company I’ll be calling for all future plumbing needs!

I own a dog grooming shop in Downtown Burbank, and when our drain line backed up right before we opened, I needed a Burbank plumber fast. Drip Too Hard Plumbing had Erik and Jon at my door that same morning, and they explained everything clearly so I knew exactly what was going on. They cleared the drain backup quickly and kept the shop clean so we didn’t have to shut down for the day. What really stood out was how honest and straightforward they were no pressure, no upselling, just real help when we needed it most. You can genuinely feel their DTHPromise in the way they communicate and how respectfully they treat your business. If you’re in Burbank and searching for a plumber near me for a drain issue or an emergency, Drip Too Hard Plumbing is the team to call. Fast, clean, and completely professional.

Thank you so much for the review and for trusting us with your shop in Downtown Burbank. Drain backups right before opening are a nightmare, so we’re really glad Erik and Jon were able to get everything cleared and keep you running without shutting down for the day. We take a lot of pride in the DTHPromise — honest communication, clean work, and zero pressure — so it means a lot that you noticed. If you ever need help again with a drain issue, plumbing emergency, or regular maintenance at the shop, we’re always here for you. Thank you again for choosing Drip Too Hard Plumbing and supporting a local Burbank business. -Drip Too Hard Plumbing Team🚰

Our water heater started leaking badly in La Crescenta, so we called Drip Too Hard Plumbing for emergency service. They showed up quickly, performed a full leak detection to make sure there weren’t other issues, and then repaired the damaged water heater. Everything was explained clearly, the pricing was fair, and the crew worked clean and professional. We’re very grateful for how fast they handled the emergency — highly recommend them for leak repair, leak detection, and any plumbing needs.

Thank you for sharing your experience! I’m glad our team was able to respond quickly, get the leak detection done, and repair the water heater before it caused more damage. We always aim to be clear on pricing and leave the space as clean as we found it, so it’s great to hear that came through. Really appreciate your recommendation for leak repair and detection in La Crescenta — means a lot to our small business. 🙏💧 — Harry, Owner, Drip Too Hard Plumbing

Winnetka Plumbing Problems We Solve

From older pipes to local water conditions, we've seen it all across Winnetka.

Galvanized pipes corroding and restricting flow

Learn more

Many Winnetka homes built in the 1950s-60s still have original galvanized pipes that are now severely corroded. These aging pipes restrict water flow and cause discolored water, especially common in the Winnetka Heights and Roscoe Village neighborhoods where post-war construction predominates.

Water heater making popping or rumbling noises

Learn more

LADWP's moderately hard water causes sediment buildup in water heaters throughout Winnetka, creating popping and rumbling sounds as the unit overheats. This is particularly problematic in older mid-century homes where original water heaters are nearing replacement time.

Tree root intrusion in sewer lines

Learn more

Winnetka's mature street trees, planted during the area's 1950s-70s development, now have extensive root systems that infiltrate aging clay sewer pipes. This problem is especially common along tree-lined streets in established neighborhoods near Mason Park and the Winnetka Recreation Center.

Low water pressure throughout the house

Learn more

Mineral deposits from LADWP's moderately hard water combined with corroded galvanized pipes create pressure issues in many Winnetka homes. This problem is most severe in original post-war tract housing where pipes haven't been updated since construction.
