Your Plumbing Company in Glendale, CA
Glendale has one of the oldest housing stocks in the Los Angeles area, and that history shows up underground. If your home was built before 1970, there is a strong chance the sewer lateral is original, which puts it somewhere between 55 and 100 years old. Laterals from the 1920s through the 1960s were typically vitrified clay tile, Orangeburg, or early cast iron. Clay performs well structurally but has joints every few feet that separate over time, Orangeburg softens and collapses under soil pressure, and cast iron corrodes internally until it develops holes and heavy scale.
The water is demanding too. Glendale Water and Power draws about 30 percent of its supply from local groundwater wells, which is generally harder than imported Colorado River water, and the city has reported average hardness over 12 grains per gallon, which is very hard. That scale narrows pipes and shortens water heater life. As a plumbing company serving Glendale, we camera-inspect first, then recommend cleaning, repair, or replacement based on what the line actually needs.

Plumber in Glendale, CA: FAQs
Answers to what Glendale homeowners ask us most.
Do you offer 24 hour emergency plumbing in Glendale?
Yes. California Plumbing Pros is available around the clock for urgent Glendale plumbing, including burst pipes, sewer backups, flooding, and no hot water. Call (800) 390-6351 any time.
Is Glendale water hard?
Yes. Glendale Water and Power draws about 30 percent of its supply from local groundwater, and the city has reported average hardness over 12 grains per gallon, which is very hard. That mineral load builds scale in pipes, fixtures, and water heaters. See water heater repair.
What pipe materials are in older Glendale homes?
Homes built in Glendale between the 1920s and 1960s commonly have sewer laterals made of vitrified clay tile, Orangeburg, or early cast iron. Clay joints separate, Orangeburg deforms and collapses, and cast iron corrodes internally. See sewer line replacement.
Why do older Glendale homes have recurring drain backups?
When multiple drains slow at once, the main sewer lateral is usually the cause. On a pre-1970 clay or cast iron lateral, roots and separated joints are common, and snaking only clears the symptom temporarily. A camera inspection shows the real condition. See drain cleaning.
Do you serve nearby cities like Burbank and Pasadena?
Yes. Along with Glendale, we help homeowners in Burbank, Pasadena, Los Angeles, La Crescenta, La Canada Flintridge, North Hollywood, Sunland, Tujunga, Montrose, Arcadia, and other nearby communities.
Do you offer trenchless sewer repair in Glendale?
Yes. When a camera inspection shows the pipe still has enough structure, trenchless pipe lining can seal cracked clay or cast iron laterals from the inside and avoid tearing up driveways, patios, and mature landscaping.
