Slow or backed up drains don't fix themselves. Call us before a small clog turns into a flooded floor.
Many Colton homes near Downtown and the La Cadena corridor still have old cast iron sewer lines. Tree roots love those cracks and grow right into the pipe. If your sink gurgles, drains slowly, or smells bad, that's usually root intrusion or scale buildup from our hard water. Waiting makes it worse. A small clog today can turn into a full backup in your yard or under your slab next month. Expansive clay soil in the valley also shifts pipes over time, which cracks joints and lets roots in even faster. We've cleared plenty of lines on Valley Blvd and Mt. Vernon Ave that homeowners thought were a lost cause. Most are fixable without tearing up the whole yard[1].
Old clay sewer lines near Valley Blvd often have roots growing inside them. We clear them out and check for cracks.
Colton's hard water leaves mineral buildup inside pipes. Over time this narrows the flow and causes backups.
Kitchen sinks build up grease over the years. It hardens and slows your drain until it stops completely.
Clay soil shifting under older homes can crack drain pipes under the foundation. These need careful repair.
Homes near Grandview Heights built in the 1950s often have galvanized steel pipes that rust from the inside out.
If the same drain clogs again and again, something deeper is wrong. We find the real cause, not a quick fix.
A slow drain rarely stays small. It backs up, spreads, and can damage floors or walls if you wait. We show up fast with the right tools and fix the actual problem, not just the symptom.
A backed up drain won't wait and neither should you. Call Now (909) 672-8852 and we'll get a plumber out to handle your drain repair fast.

I highly recommend Ready Set Plumbing for your water heater issues for the good price and great customer satisfaction. Victor is professional, was on time and finished the work in good time. He even educated me on how to flush the tank so it could last longer.
I dread calling plumbers. No shows and overpriced. Not Ready Set, Victor just left my house to replace a shower valve. Turned out we needed much more work but he explained and showed me everything. The work that was done before was so bad. He gave me some options to consider and once we decided he got to work. Did a great job and a very reasonable price. On time, great communication, friendly and all the work was done the same day. Thanks Victor!
We were very pleased with ready, set plumbing to take care of our plumbing needs. They were easy to get a hold of and came when they said they would be here. We received a fair estimate and they took care of the job. They also worked very clean and took away the old parts with them. I would highly recommend Victor Medina for all my plumbing needs. I will save his number and I’m sure use them again over and over.

Here are answers to what Colton homeowners ask us most about drain repair.
Most jobs run between $150 and $1,200 depending on the cause. A simple clog costs less than a cracked line under a slab. We give you a free estimate so you know the price upfront before any work begins.
A standard clog clearing takes about an hour or less. Root removal or pipe repair can take a few hours depending on access. We'll tell you a time estimate before we start.
Simple clogs sometimes clear with a plunger or basic snake. But repeat clogs or slow drains across your whole house usually point to a bigger issue like root intrusion. Store bought chemicals can damage older galvanized pipes. We recommend calling a plumber. This is best for anything that keeps coming back.
Do you live in an older home near Downtown Colton? If you have original clay or cast iron lines, get a camera inspection. We recommend doing this every couple of years. Newer homes in Reche Canyon with PEX or copper need less frequent checks. Hard water means everyone should watch for slow drainage.
Not always, but it can turn into one fast. A slow drain often means a clog is forming and will eventually back up completely. We're open 24/7, so call us before it turns into a flooded floor.
Gurgling sounds, bad smells, slow drainage, and water backing up into other fixtures are all signs. If multiple drains act up at once, that usually points to a main line issue. Don't ignore these, they rarely fix themselves.
Yes, root intrusion is one of the most common issues we see in Colton's older clay sewer lines. We clear the roots out and check for cracks or breaks. If the line is badly damaged, we can reline it without digging up your whole yard.
