El Segundo is about 13 miles southwest of our dispatch base at 211 S Lafayette Park Pl, as the crow flies. We dispatch 24/7 and most El Segundo calls are handled the same day. Because traffic and call volume change by the hour, we give you an honest arrival window on the phone rather than a guess. Meanwhile, shut off the water if anything is leaking.

We price by the job, not by surprise. You get a free estimate before any work begins in El Segundo, you approve it, and that is what you pay for that scope. First-time customers save 10% on a first plumbing or drain service, and financing is available for bigger projects such as repipes and sewer replacements.

Yes. California requires a state contractor license for plumbing work of any real size, and ours is License #845109, active, bonded and insured. Check it yourself on the Contractors State License Board site. We are also BBB accredited with an A rating.

We serve all of the City of El Segundo, including ZIP code 90245 and areas such as Main Street, Smoky Hollow, and Plaza El Segundo. We also cover nearby Manhattan Beach, Westchester, Playa del Rey, and Hawthorne; see all of our service areas.

Yes. El Segundo restaurants, shops, offices and multi-unit buildings use us for commercial plumbing: grease and main line jetting, backflow testing, commercial water heaters and repairs scheduled around tenants and business hours, plus 24/7 emergency response.

Cash, credit and debit cards, checks, Venmo and Zelle all work, and larger repairs can be financed. And yes, se habla español: we can walk you through everything in Spanish.

Shut off the water at the main valve, usually near the front hose bib, in the garage or where the line enters the house. Turn off power to any area where water is near outlets or appliances if it is safe, stop using drains and toilets if sewage is backing up, and move valuables out of the way. Then call (213) 281-4751; for a burst pipe see our burst pipe repair service.

Call a licensed plumber right away and stop running water. A sewer backup usually means the main line is blocked by roots, grease, wipes or a damaged pipe. We clear the line through a cleanout, then run a camera through it to see why it happened. Clearing restores flow, but if tree roots or a cracked, sagging or offset pipe caused the backup, it can happen again until that section is repaired. The camera footage shows exactly what a lasting repair requires.

Leave the building immediately, do not use light switches, phones or flames inside, and call 911 or the gas company from outside. Once the utility says it is safe, call us for gas leak repair and gas line repair.

Close the cold water valve above the tank and shut off the gas (set the control to off) or the breaker for an electric heater. Drain the tank through a hose if water is spreading. A tank that leaks from the body cannot be repaired, so we will quote a water heater replacement and can usually install the same or next day.

Yes. Hydro jetting sends high-pressure water through drain and sewer lines to scour away grease, scale and roots, cleaning the full width of the pipe. It often helps drains that keep clogging, because snaking usually just punches a hole through the buildup. If roots or a damaged pipe are the cause, the line can clog again until that section is repaired. We camera-inspect first and match pressure to the pipe material, so it is safe for older lines as well as new ones.

Yes. A video pipe inspection, also called a CCTV sewer camera inspection, sends a waterproof camera through your drain or sewer line and streams live video. It shows cracks, roots, bellies, offset joints and buildup, and a locator marks the exact spot and depth from the surface so repairs target only the damaged section.

Yes, especially for an older home. A standard home inspection usually does not include the sewer lateral, and the private part of that line is generally the owner's responsibility. A pre-purchase sewer camera inspection in El Segundo shows its condition before you close, when repairs can still be negotiated.

Based on the age and type of housing in El Segundo, the most common issues we find are cracked and bellied cast iron or clay laterals and, in some tracts, deformed Orangeburg fiber pipe and corroded cast iron in older beach-area homes. Mature trees make root intrusion a leading cause of backups in El Segundo. A camera inspection tells us which one you have before we recommend a repair.

Yes, when the line qualifies. Trenchless sewer repair either lines the old pipe from the inside or bursts it and pulls new pipe through, using one or two small pits. It saves El Segundo driveways, gardens and hardscape, and a camera inspection tells us first whether it will work for your line.

In most of Los Angeles County the property owner is responsible for the private sewer lateral that runs from the house toward the public main, while the city or sewer district maintains the main. Exactly where that responsibility ends (the property line, the curb or the connection) varies by agency, so confirm the rule for El Segundo with the City of El Segundo. A camera inspection shows the condition of the part that is yours.

Yes. Whether you want a like-for-like tank replacement or an upgrade to a tankless water heater, we size it for your El Segundo household, handle gas, venting and water connections and strap it for earthquakes. The estimate is free.

Yes. California law requires water heaters to be braced, anchored or strapped to resist falling or moving during an earthquake. Proper strapping protects the gas and water connections. We check and install seismic straps whenever we service or replace a water heater in El Segundo.

Watch for a higher water bill, warm spots on the floor, the sound of water running when nothing is on, musty smells or new cracks in tile. Then try the meter test: shut off every fixture and see if the meter keeps turning. If it does, our leak detection uses acoustic and thermal tools to find the leak without opening the whole floor.

Low pressure is usually caused by a failing pressure regulator, a partly closed valve, clogged aerators, a hidden leak or old galvanized pipe narrowed by corrosion. If pressure is low throughout the house, the regulator or main line is the likely cause; if it is one fixture, it is usually that fixture.

Yes, El Segundo water is moderately hard to hard, as it is across most of Southern California. Scale builds up inside water heaters, tankless heat exchangers, valves and fixtures. An annual flush, tankless descaling and a softener or filtration system protect your plumbing.

Consider repiping when you have repeated pinhole leaks, rusty or discolored water, low pressure from corroded galvanized pipe, or pipes that are 50 to 70 years old. We repipe with copper or PEX, open as little drywall as possible and give you a free estimate first.

Larger jobs such as water heater replacements, repiping, new gas lines and sewer line replacement generally need a permit. El Segundo permits are handled by the City of El Segundo's building and safety office (or the Los Angeles County office it contracts with). As a licensed contractor, we pull the required permits and arrange inspections for you.
