Why do Canoga Park drains back up even without roots?

On flat lots, some sewer laterals have only a gentle slope, which lets solids settle and build up over time. Sags or offsets in older pipe make it worse. A camera inspection shows whether the issue is slope, damage or buildup.

Do you serve apartment buildings in Canoga Park?

Yes. We work with landlords and property managers on shared drain lines, central and individual water heaters, unit repairs and tenant emergencies. Property care plans can schedule drain cleaning and inspections so problems are caught early.

How can I book the $199 sewer camera inspection?

Call us any time at 818-538-4958. We will ask a few questions about your Canoga Park property, confirm whether it qualifies for the $199 rate and set up a visit. The technician walks you through the footage on site.

Can you help restaurants and shops on Sherman Way?

We handle commercial drain cleaning, hydro jetting for grease lines, restroom repairs and water heater service for businesses in Old Town Canoga Park and beyond. Regular maintenance on a set schedule helps restaurants and shops avoid backups during their busiest hours.

Canoga Park plumbing spans many generations.

Canoga Park's history goes back further than many west Valley neighborhoods, and the area around Sherman Way, often called Old Town Canoga Park, still has older storefronts and homes. Farther out, postwar tract homes and later apartment complexes fill in the grid. That range of ages means plumbing materials vary widely from one block to the next, from clay and cast iron to newer plastic pipe.

The Los Angeles River begins in Canoga Park, near Canoga Park High School, where Bell Creek and Arroyo Calabasas meet. The surrounding streets are flat, which can mean sewer laterals with gentle slopes that are prone to buildup over time. Mature street trees and backyard trees add root intrusion to the mix, especially in older clay laterals with loose or cracked joints that give roots an easy way in.

Canoga Park is a City of Los Angeles neighborhood served by LADWP, and the city maintains the public sewer main. The lateral from each property to the main is generally the owner's responsibility. Apartment buildings, restaurants along Sherman Way and light industrial shops near Warner Center all put heavy use on drains and water heaters, which makes regular maintenance worthwhile.

New Flow came out to my mothers house in Reseda and was able to clear the main line blockage. They were there within an hour and had very reasonable pricing. While there they identified another problem with the pipping(it is a 100 year old house lol) and came up with an option to replace some of the pipping. Definitely will be using them again for any problems down in the valley.

Whenever something goes wrong at our North Hollywood condo property, Art answers the phone day or night, which is why New Flow Plumbing has handled our plumbing since the place was built. Just last week a huge problem hit at 10:00 pm with all the tenants stressing out, but they had someone walking through the door in twenty minutes to get it taken care of. They show up ready to work seven days a week for the small stuff and the emergencies alike, so I always know we are covered.

Michael

Had a sewage back up at a unit and Art was able to take care of my problem. Due to it being an older house it had quite significant problems (old piping, no clear out,etc). He took care of the clog, add clear out, and also discovered the toilets that were installed were incorrect ones since forever and replaced both toilets as well. He also gave me advice on what he would do with the current drainage problem and what he would do temporarily, and or the future for my piping. Was very reasonably priced. 100% satisfied with the service he provided.

Shower was way too cold. Looked at the tank and could tell it was completely done, so we reached out to New flow to fix the plumbing in Granada Hills. The tech got the new hot water heater put in and even cleaned up some sloppy copper fittings left behind from our previous remodel so everything lined up straight. He was wrapped up and out the door by 3p, and the hot water was running before he left.

Water was backing up into both my toilet and bathtub from a main line clog. A few plumbers gave weird replies, including one guy who threw out a random quote without even checking the pipes. I usually handle small things myself, but I needed real help here. Art came in and mapped out the whole line, running a camera to show me the blockages on the screen. He pushed past 60 feet clearing tree roots and debris, explaining the fix as he went. The final bill matched his quote. Thanks to them I can finally take a shower.

Great work from the best plumbers in the valley. I had a pretty big job done. They replaced the main water pipe out to the street. It was completed on time and they kept me informed during the down time (waiting for the city to approve the permit.) I would use them again. They are pleasant to work with.

If you need a reliable plumber in Valley Village, save their number right now. Our new tenants moved into our rental last weekend and immediately hit us with a no hot water text. Found New Flow on Google, liked what I saw on their page, and gave them a call. Arman sent someone out just a few hours later. We looked at the old twenty year unit and agreed a full replacement made the most sense. They knocked it out the exact same day, saved my weekend, and kept the tenants happy. Already passed his name to a buddy of mine who hired him shortly after.

My parent's toilet was leaking and after messaging different places, I told my parents this place could fix our problem. Arman was the one who helped us out and after talking to him about a possible broken wax ring, he found the actual problem, roots in our pipes. He hydrojetted the roots and installed something to help keep the roots from growing for the next few years. So if you're have problems related to pipes, my family and I highly recommend coming here.

We have been calling New Flow for plumbing services ever since they warned us six years ago that our ancient drain pipes were on their last legs. When the system finally failed, we shopped around for bids on a full repipe. Every single plumber gave us quotes without stepping foot under the house, except them. The team crawled under there, filmed the pipes, and showed us that our water lines were still completely fine. Arman gave us a fair quote for just the drains, and his crew finished the work in one day. Hard to find contractors this upfront and genuine.

Chloe

I cannot compliment New Flow Plumbing enough. They were recommended by our selling real estate agent for a sewage line inspection. They came out quickly, and Arman was very professional and polite right away. He was able to service the sewage line, provide thorough, expert knowledge, and give us recommendations. The pricing is excellent and fair, and I would definitely recommend using their services again. The HD video was provided for our own viewing, and it was emailed to us within hours of the visit. Overall a very enjoyable experience. 5 stars does not do it justice. Thanks again!!
