Plumbing Repair for La Crescenta’s Mid-Century Homes
La Crescenta was built out in one big push after the war, and the 1950s ranch homes that line the streets between Foothill Boulevard and the mountains are now 70 years old. Their plumbing is too. Galvanized supply pipe, original cast-iron drains and sewer laterals that run downhill toward Foothill are the starting point for most of the calls we get here.
Hard Hat Rooter and Plumbing has served the Crescenta Valley since 2013 from our Burbank shop, a short drive up the 2. We repipe, clear and camera sewer lines, replace water heaters and respond to emergencies at any hour.
You’ll know the price before we begin, the estimate costs nothing, and the work carries a one-year warranty. Call (855) 331-7788.

What Los Angeles County Homeowners Say
Hard Water, Old Pipe and Downhill Sewers
The Crescenta Valley runs on some of the harder water in our service area, and it shows in the plumbing. Scale shortens water heater life, clogs shower valves and leaves faucets dripping. We flush and descale, rebuild valves and replace heaters that have hit the end.
La Crescenta’s sewer laterals mostly run downslope, which sounds helpful until a root mass or a separated joint catches everything on the way down. Backups here tend to be sudden and messy. A camera inspection finds the problem, hydro-jetting clears it, and we repair the failed section if there is one.
Repiping is the long-term fix for the pressure and rusty-water complaints that come with 1950s galvanized lines. Most La Crescenta ranch homes take a day or two, and the difference at the shower is immediate.
