About Richards Home Service in La Puente, CA

Common signs include recurring slow drains, gurgling sounds from toilets, and sewage backups, especially after heavy rains when roots grow faster. For La Puente homes, these issues are common due to mature trees. We perform a thorough plumbing inspection, often using a camera, to accurately diagnose root intrusion and assess the extent of the damage to your sewer line.

While hydro-jetting is excellent for clearing roots and debris, a permanent repair often involves sewer repair or replacement. For severe, recurring root problems common in our area, we may recommend trenchless pipe lining or a full sewer installation with root-resistant materials. This addresses the joint failures roots exploit and prevents future intrusions, saving you money on repeated clearing services.

Many older La Puente homes have pipes with worn joints that leak or cause low water pressure. We offer comprehensive water pipe repair and replacement services. After a detailed inspection, we can repair specific failing joints or recommend a full water pipe installation with modern, durable materials like copper or PEX, which have more reliable connections and can prevent future leaks and water damage.
