Ezra and Jose from Plumbing buddies were very professional and respectful of our property and always showed up on time and cleaned up after themselves.Ezra explained what was going to happen once our water got shut off. They began the re-piping under the house with ABS drain lines. finished one day and the 68 year-old cast-iron pipes are now gone. The new black ABS drain pipe should last for a long time. Highly recommend this company.

Drain Repair in Glendora, CA
Plumbing Buddies provides drain repair in Glendora and across the San Gabriel Valley foothills.
Expert Drain Repair in Glendora, CA
Drain repair in Glendora means more than clearing a slow sink. Many homes across Glendora, San Dimas, La Verne, and Covina were built with cast iron or clay drain pipes that crack, corrode, and shift over time. Hard water mineral buildup narrows pipe walls. Tree roots from mature foothill landscaping push through joints and grow into lines. When these problems go unaddressed, a slow drain turns into a backed-up fixture, water damage, or a foul odor that spreads through the home. Jeremy, our owner, brings 20 years of plumbing experience and a straight-talking approach to every job. He served in the Army and carries that same no-nonsense honesty into every repair call. We assess the damaged section, determine the right repair method for the pipe material and access point, and restore proper flow. We serve homeowners across Glendora, Pasadena, Arcadia, Monrovia, Upland, Claremont, Rancho Cucamonga, and West Covina. Call Plumbing Buddies when a drain problem needs a real fix, not a temporary patch.

FAQ
Drain Repair FAQ
Common questions about drain repair in Glendora, CA.
If the same drain backs up repeatedly after cleaning, the pipe likely has a crack, root intrusion, or collapsed section that cleaning alone cannot fix. Drain repair addresses the structural problem, not just the symptom.
Older Glendora homes commonly have cast iron or clay drain pipes that crack from age, mineral buildup, and soil movement around the foothill areas. Tree roots seeking moisture also push through pipe joints and cause breaks.
In many cases, yes — the repair method depends on where the damage is located and how severe it is. Jeremy will assess the pipe condition and explain your options before any work begins.
Not always, but a slow drain that returns quickly after clearing often points to a damaged or partially collapsed pipe rather than a simple clog. A proper inspection identifies which problem you are dealing with.
Yes — when multiple fixtures back up at once across your Glendora home, it usually points to a problem in the main drain line, and that is exactly the type of repair we handle. We locate the damaged section and restore flow to the whole system.
Recurring backups after snaking usually mean the pipe has a crack, root mass, or corroded interior that a snake cannot fix. Drain repair targets the damaged pipe section so the problem does not keep coming back.
