- Tujunga, CA 91042
Tujunga's Trusted Plumbing Company
Tujunga has a character all its own — river rock cottages from the town’s early days, ranch homes along Foothill Boulevard, and canyon properties tucked into Big Tujunga and Haines Canyon under Mount Lukens. Pure Planet Plumbing handles leak detection, repiping, water heater repair and installation, drain and sewer line service, and emergency plumbing for 91042 homes, with same-day service at (818) 303-4515 and licensed plumbers on every job.
Tujunga’s 91042 runs along the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains, from the neighborhoods off Foothill Boulevard and Tujunga Canyon Boulevard to the hillside streets below Mount Lukens and the canyon homes up Big Tujunga Canyon and Haines Canyon. Pure Planet Plumbing provides emergency plumbing, leak detection and repair, drain cleaning and hydro jetting, sewer line repair, water heater service, water filtration and softening, and whole-house repiping for homes, mobile homes, and small properties throughout Tujunga.
Tujunga’s homes range from the stone and river rock cottages of the early 1900s to post-war ranch houses and newer hillside builds, and many have been added on to by several owners over the years. That history shows up as galvanized pipe tied into copper and plastic, long service lines on sloped lots, aging drain lines, and some properties in the hills and canyons that still rely on septic systems. Hillside homes see high water pressure, LADWP’s water is hard, and older water heaters often sit in garages or sheds without current seismic strapping.
Tujunga homeowners want a plumber who shows up, explains what is wrong in plain language, and charges what was quoted. Pure Planet Plumbing diagnoses before recommending, prices the job up front, and builds repairs to last on properties that have seen a lot of do-it-yourself plumbing over the decades.

WHY TUJUNGA HOMEOWNERS TRUST PURE PLANET PLUMBING
Licensed, Bonded & Insured Plumbers
Pure Planet Plumbing sends licensed, bonded, and insured plumbers to every Tujunga job, from a dripping supply line to a full repipe. That coverage protects your home and your wallet, and it means the work is done to California plumbing code — not patched by a handyman and left for the next owner to discover. Our team brings more than 13 years of hands-on experience to every call.
Fast, Same-Day Service
Slab leaks, sewer backups, and failed water heaters do not wait for a convenient week, and Tujunga homeowners should not have to either. Call (818) 303-4515 and you talk to our team directly, not a call center. Same-day service is available, and our plumbers arrive with the tools and parts to fix most problems on the first visit.
Honest Diagnostics, Upfront Pricing
Every Tujunga job starts with a real diagnosis — a camera inspection, pressure test, or leak detection where the situation calls for it — and a clear explanation of what we found. You get the price before the work starts. No surprise line items, no upsells, and no pressure to replace what can be repaired.
Straightening Out Older Systems
A lot of Tujunga homes have plumbing pieced together by several owners over many decades. We sort out what is actually there, fix the weak links, and when it makes sense, replace the patchwork with one clean system that you will not have to think about again.
COMMON PLUMBING PROBLEMS IN TUJUNGA, CA 91042
Patchwork Plumbing in Older Homes
Many Tujunga homes have galvanized pipe from the original build, copper from a later remodel, and plastic from an owner’s weekend repair, all in the same system. Mismatched materials corrode where they meet, and old galvanized sections narrow with rust. Low pressure, rusty water, and recurring leaks are the result. Pure Planet Plumbing finds the weak spots, makes lasting repairs, and repipes the house in copper or PEX when that is the better long-term value.
Hillside and Canyon Water Pressure
Homes on Tujunga’s slopes and in its canyons often deal with pressure that is too high on lower lots and inconsistent higher up. High pressure wears out fixtures, valves, supply hoses, and water heaters early. We test pressure, replace failed regulators, add expansion tanks, and repair long service lines that leak on sloped properties.
Older Drain Lines and Sewer Laterals
Aging clay and cast iron drain lines under Tujunga homes collect roots and buildup, crack with ground movement, and sag over time. Slow drains, backups, and sewer smells usually mean trouble in the line. Pure Planet Plumbing camera-inspects, clears roots and blockages with hydro jetting, and repairs failed sections without unnecessary digging.
Water Heaters in Garages and Sheds
Plenty of Tujunga water heaters live in detached garages, sheds, and utility closets, and many were installed before current seismic strapping and venting rules. Hard LADWP water wears them out faster. A leaking base, rusty hot water, or a tank that rumbles while heating means replacement is near. We install code-compliant tank and tankless water heaters and explain the tradeoffs honestly.

Shut off the water at the main valve or the fixture's shutoff, turn off the water heater if it is leaking, keep people and pets away from any water near outlets or appliances, and call Pure Planet Plumbing at (818) 303-4515. The faster the water stops, the less damage it does.
In older homes, rusted galvanized pipe is the most common cause. A failed pressure regulator, a leak in the service line, or a partly closed valve can also be to blame. We will test and find the real cause.
A water bill that keeps climbing, the sound of running water when nothing is on, warm or damp spots on the floor, musty odors, stains on walls or ceilings, and mold near baseboards all point to a hidden leak. We use leak detection equipment to find it before opening anything.
If the tank is under about 10 years old and the problem is a part like a thermostat, element, or valve, repair usually makes sense. If the tank is leaking from the body, producing rusty water, or is 10 to 12 years or older, replacement is usually the better value. We will give you an honest recommendation either way.
Tankless water heaters provide endless hot water, take up far less space, and usually last longer than tanks. They do cost more up front and may need a gas line or venting upgrade. We will look at your home and tell you honestly whether a tankless conversion makes sense.
Yes. We repair leaks, replace water heaters, and fix supply and drain lines in mobile and manufactured homes.
Most homes do not need routine cleaning until there is a problem, but older homes with clay sewer laterals and mature trees often benefit from a camera inspection every few years and periodic hydro jetting to keep roots in check. Repeat clogs are a sign it is time to look.
Yes. We diagnose the problem, explain what we found, and give you the price before any work begins. No surprise charges on the invoice and no pressure to approve work you did not ask for.
