How emergency plumbing works in Anaheim

When something bursts, backs up, or leaks in Anaheim, call us at any hour. We help you stop the damage on the phone, then send a plumber in a truck stocked for burst pipes, sewage backups, gas line problems, and failed water heaters.

Anaheim homes range from 1940s and 1950s houses near Downtown and the Colony District, many with original cast iron sewer lines, to newer construction in Anaheim Hills.

When to call for emergency plumbing

Call for emergency service when water is flooding the house, sewage is coming up in tubs, toilets, or floor drains, you smell gas and cannot find or shut off the source, a burst pipe keeps flowing after the main is closed, a water heater is leaking heavily, or the house has no water.

What Anaheim homeowners should know

Orange County's largest city, from 1920s homes near Downtown to hillside communities in Anaheim Hills.

  • Built before 1960Galvanized steel supply and cast iron drains. Galvanized corrodes inside and restricts pressure; cast iron narrows and lets roots in. Common in Colony-era and early West Anaheim homes.
  • 1960s to 1980sCopper supply with cast iron or ABS drains. Hard water speeds up pinhole leaks in copper, and the cast iron is past its reliable life.
  • Built after 1980Plastic supply and drain lines. More resilient, but slab leaks occur where pipes run through concrete in Anaheim Hills.

Water hardness

Anaheim Public Utilities supplies the city, and the water is hard to very hard. The utility publishes the current figure in its annual water quality report. Regular water heater flushing helps, and a softener is worth considering on older copper or galvanized lines.

What customers say

★★★★★

Great experience with Miguel and Steven! Fixed my stubborn kitchen sink clog. Very informative and respectful of my home in addressing the issue. Highly recommend!

I had an excellent experience with SoCal 1 Plumbing! Eliass came out to clear a blockage in my kitchen line by snaking it through the outside wall clean-out, and everything was done efficiently and with great care. He also installed new tubular drains under my kitchen sink to stop the leaks I’d been dealing with. The work was high-quality, and they even provided a 1-year warranty on parts and labor, which gave me peace of mind. Highly recommend their professional and reliable service!

I had a plumbing issue that needed to be repaired sooner than later. Miguel came out and knew how to fix it immediately. Miguel was professional, friendly and knowledgeable. I won't hesitate to call them in the future.
