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.

We recently bought a home in Burbank near Toluca Lake and added an ADU, but the previous plumber left a lot of mistakes behind. We called Drip Too Hard Plumbing, and it was the best decision we could’ve made. Erik and his team completely redid the work the right way — professional, clean, and built to last. You can tell this company takes pride in every detail. They even backed everything with the DTH Promise, a 2-year workmanship guarantee that shows how confident they are in their quality. If you’re looking for a plumber in Burbank or searching for a Burbank plumber you can actually trust, Drip Too Hard Plumbing is the one to call. Honest, reliable, and perfectionist-level work.

Top Plumbing Issues in Burbank

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

Galvanized pipes corroding and restricting flow

Learn more

Many Burbank homes built in the 1940s-1960s still have original galvanized pipes that are now severely corroded. These aging pipes restrict water flow and cause discolored water, particularly common in Magnolia Park and Rancho neighborhoods.

Tree root intrusion in sewer lines

Learn more

Burbank's mature olive, palm, and pepper trees throughout established neighborhoods create persistent root intrusion problems in sewer lines. The city's older cast iron sewer pipes are particularly vulnerable to root penetration.

Water heater making popping or rumbling noises

Learn more

Burbank Water and Power's moderately hard water causes accelerated sediment buildup in water heaters, creating popping and rumbling noises. This issue is especially common in the city's post-war homes with older water heaters.

Low water pressure throughout the house

Learn more

Mineral deposits from Burbank's hard water combined with corroded galvanized pipes in older homes create widespread low pressure issues. This problem affects many homes in Downtown Burbank and the Media District built before 1970.

Burbank Plumbing FAQs

Common questions from Burbank homeowners about our plumbing services, pricing, and service area.

Many Burbank homes were built in the early to mid-20th century, which means they may have outdated plumbing materials like galvanized steel or cast iron pipes. These can corrode over time and cause leaks, low water pressure, or even complete pipe failures. Our Burbank plumbers are experts at identifying and repairing these common issues in older homes.
