Plumbing Service Los Angeles CA | Call Plumbing Patrol

In Los Angeles, a slow kitchen drain is often caused by grease buildup, which is common with our local cooking habits. We typically start with a thorough drain cleaning. However, if multiple drains are slow or you notice gurgling sounds, it could indicate a deeper sewer line problem, especially in older neighborhoods with clay pipes. Our plumbing inspection service can use a camera to diagnose the exact issue, whether it's a simple clog or a repair needed further down the line.

Yes, this is a common warning sign in our area. LA's soil composition and the age of many homes can accelerate gas line corrosion. A delayed ignition could mean a small leak or corrosion restricting flow, which is a serious safety hazard. Do not ignore it. Plumbing Patrol offers expert gas line inspection and repair. Our technicians are certified to safely locate any corrosion or leaks and perform the necessary repairs or installation of new, code-compliant lines to protect your home.

For older LA homes, a pre-purchase plumbing inspection is crucial. We go beyond checking for leaks. Our inspection focuses on local concerns: we camera-scope the main sewer line for root intrusion or breaks common in our soil, test water pressure, check for outdated galvanized pipes that cause low flow, and thoroughly inspect gas lines for corrosion. We also assess the water heater for age and seismic safety. This gives you a clear picture of potential issues like recurring drain problems or unsafe gas lines before you commit.
