Piping, Drain & Sewer Services in Glendale, AZ
Complete plumbing solutions designed to keep your system flowing properly — from your pipes to your main sewer line.
Glendale has some of the oldest housing we service. Catlin Court, near downtown, was built between 1914 and 1942, and the central neighborhoods around it filled in with postwar homes through the 1950s and 1960s, many still draining through original cast iron and clay tile. Farther north and west, Arrowhead Ranch and the newer subdivisions date to the 1980s and later and run on ABS plastic. That spread means a Glendale sewer call can be a clay lateral that has been in the ground for most of a century one day and a 30-year-old ABS joint the next. Our shop on Deer Valley Road is a short drive from north Glendale, and we have completed 4,700+ plumbing and home service jobs here.

Drain and Sewer Questions from Glendale Homeowners
My Glendale home was built before 1970. What should I know about the sewer line?
Homes from that era usually have a clay tile or cast iron lateral running to the street, and both age in predictable ways. Clay joints separate and let roots in, and cast iron corrodes along the bottom until it cracks. Neither usually fails all at once; the first signs are gurgling drains, slow drains throughout the house, or a backup after heavy use. A camera inspection gives you the pipe material, its condition, and the location of any defects before you commit to a repair.
Are tree roots really a sewer problem in Glendale?
In the older neighborhoods, yes. Mature shade trees planted decades ago have had a long time to find the moisture seeping from clay and cast iron joints, and once roots get inside they grow into a mass that catches everything flowing past. Cutting them out restores flow for a while, but they return through the same joint. A lasting fix seals that entry point, either with a sectional repair or by lining the pipe.
My Glendale kitchen drain keeps clogging. Is drain cleaning enough, or do I need hydro-jetting?
Standard drain cleaning runs a cable with a cutting head through the line to punch through a clog and restore flow. Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water to scour the full inside wall of the pipe, removing the grease and scale a cable leaves behind. For a one-time clog, cabling is usually enough. For a kitchen line that keeps clogging, jetting after a camera inspection is usually the better value, because it removes the buildup the next clog would catch on.
Why do I smell sewer gas in my Glendale home?
The most common cause is a dry trap. Every drain has a water-filled trap that blocks sewer gas, and in a guest bathroom or floor drain that goes unused through a Glendale summer, that water can evaporate. Running water in each drain for a minute often solves it. If the smell persists, the likely causes are a failed toilet wax ring, a cracked drain or vent pipe, or a sewer line defect, which a smoke test or camera inspection will locate.
Do I need a permit for sewer line work in Glendale?
Sewer line replacement and new drain piping generally require a permit and inspection through the City of Glendale. Drain clearing, hydro-jetting, and camera inspections do not. Plumbing work is done under Delta Plumbing Services LLC (Arizona ROC 303285, R-37). We’ll tell you whether your job needs a permit.
