Local to Covina. Built for its plumbing.
We work throughout the City of Covina, including Downtown Covina on Citrus Avenue, Covina Park, and Badillo Street. Covina is about 22 miles east of our dispatch base at 211 S Lafayette Park Pl, as the crow flies. Our 24/7 crews cover Covina like the rest of our service area. We serve Covina ZIP codes 91722, 91723, and 91724.
Many Covina homes date from the 1910s through the 1930s, so we regularly find original clay sewer laterals, cast iron drain stacks and galvanized steel water lines. Clay joints let tree roots in, cast iron scales and cracks from the inside, and galvanized pipe rusts until pressure drops and the water runs brown. Postwar homes from the 1940s through the 1960s are common in Covina. At this age their cast iron and clay sewer lines are prone to cracks, bellies and root intrusion, and a few were built with Orangeburg fiber sewer pipe, which deforms over time and is best confirmed with a camera.
Like most of Southern California, Covina has moderately hard to hard water, which leaves scale in water heaters, tankless units, faucets and showerheads. Whatever the job, from drain cleaning and hydro jetting to video pipe inspection, water heater work and leak detection, you get a free estimate before any work begins.

See inside your Covina sewer line before anyone digs.
Our video pipe inspection sends a waterproof CCTV camera through your drain or sewer line and streams it live, so you see the cracks, roots, bellies and buildup for yourself. A locator marks the exact spot and depth from the surface, and every repair recommendation comes with a free estimate.
- Pre-purchase sewer inspections for Covina home buyers
- Root intrusion, cracks, offsets and collapses located precisely
- Trenchless repair options when the line qualifies

Plumbing emergencies in Covina
What should I do while I wait for an emergency plumber in Covina?
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.
What causes a sewer backup in Covina?
Most backups in Covina come from tree roots, grease, wipes or a cracked or sagging sewer lateral. Stop using water, keep people away from the sewage and call (213) 281-4751. We clear the line through a cleanout and camera-inspect it. Clearing gets the sewer backup flowing again, but roots grow back and a damaged pipe keeps catching debris, so another blockage is likely until the defective section is repaired. The footage shows you which it is.
What should I do if I smell gas in Covina?
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.
What should I do if my water heater is leaking?
Turn off the cold water supply valve on top of the heater, then turn the gas control to off or switch off the breaker for an electric unit. If water is pooling, open the drain valve with a hose to an outside drain. Call us for water heater repair or replacement in Covina; a leaking tank usually means it is time to replace it.
Drains, sewers and inspections in Covina
Do you offer hydro jetting in Covina?
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.
Can you do a video pipe inspection in Covina?
Yes. Our sewer camera inspection puts a waterproof CCTV camera inside the line while you watch the live feed. You see the roots, cracks, sags or blockage yourself, and a locator pinpoints where and how deep it is, so any repair at your Covina property is targeted instead of guesswork.
Should I get a sewer line inspection before buying a home in Covina?
We recommend it. General home inspections rarely look inside the sewer line, yet a failing lateral can cost thousands, and once you own the home the private part of the line is generally yours. A camera inspection before closing on a Covina property gives you video proof to negotiate with.
What sewer problems are common in Covina homes?
Based on the age and type of housing in Covina, the most common issues we find are root intrusion through clay pipe joints and cast iron that has scaled, cracked or rotted through at the bottom and cracked and bellied cast iron or clay laterals and, in some tracts, deformed Orangeburg fiber pipe. Mature trees make root intrusion a leading cause of backups in Covina. A camera inspection tells us which one you have before we recommend a repair.
Can you fix a sewer line in Covina without digging up the yard?
Often, yes. After a camera inspection, many damaged lines can be repaired with trenchless sewer repair, using pipe lining or pipe bursting through small access points instead of a long trench. That protects landscaping, driveways and hardscape and usually finishes faster.
Who is responsible for the sewer line at a Covina home?
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 Covina with the City of Covina. A camera inspection shows the condition of the part that is yours.
Water heaters, leaks and pipes in Covina
Can you install a tankless water heater in Covina?
Yes. We repair and replace tank water heaters and install tankless water heaters in Covina. We size the unit to your household and fuel type, handle venting, gas and water connections and earthquake strapping, and give you a free estimate first.
Does my water heater need earthquake straps in Covina?
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 Covina.
How do I know if my Covina home has a slab leak?
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.
What causes low water pressure in Covina?
If one faucet is weak, it is usually a clogged aerator or cartridge. If the whole Covina home is weak, look at the pressure regulator, the main valve, a hidden leak or galvanized pipe narrowed by rust. We test pressure at the hose bib and tell you exactly which it is.
Is the water hard in Covina, and what does it do to plumbing?
Like most of Southern California, Covina has moderately hard to hard water. The minerals leave scale in water heaters and tankless units, faucets, showerheads and valves, which shortens their life. Flushing the water heater, descaling tankless units and adding a water softener or filtration system all help.
When should I repipe my Covina home?
When leaks keep coming back, the water runs rusty or pressure keeps dropping, patching stops making sense. Homes in Covina with original galvanized lines are prime candidates for repiping with copper or PEX. We keep wall openings small and quote it free up front.
Do I need a permit for plumbing work in Covina?
Larger jobs such as water heater replacements, repiping, new gas lines and sewer line replacement generally need a permit. Covina permits are handled by the City of Covina'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.
