When it comes to plumbing services in Pasadena, you need professionals who know the city’s infrastructure, recognize the unique challenges of older plumbing systems, and understand what local inspectors look for.
Ritz Plumbing brings that experience to every job, offering a full range of residential, commercial, and municipal services with licensed workmanship and full code accountability from start to finish.
Our rooter service clears blockages in kitchens, bathrooms, laundry lines, and main sewer lines. We use snaking, hydro jetting, and camera inspections to locate and resolve the issue at the source.
Whether it’s a break, backup, or aging clay pipe, our team repairs or replaces sewer lines to meet Chapter 13.24 of the Pasadena Municipal Code. We handle city coordination, trenching, rerouting, and inspections.
We install and repair all makes and models, from tank-style to tankless. We also ensure every unit meets Pasadena’s updated energy and electric-ready standards and secure necessary permits and sign-offs for new installations.
Are you replacing a faucet, installing a new toilet, or a garbage disposal? Our team manages everything, from parts and supply lines to shutoffs. Every installation is completed cleanly, efficiently, and to code.
Do you need a new gas line for a stove or outdoor heater? Do you smell a leak? We install, repair, and test gas lines using Pasadena-approved methods and pressure tests. Emergency shutoff services are available 24/7.
Old galvanized lines can corrode and drop your pressure. We install copper or PEX replacements, fix leaks, and reroute lines to meet your home’s needs while maintaining code compliance.
If you’ve noticed wet patches or the sound of running water under the floor, contact us immediately.
Our slab leak service uses thermal imaging and acoustic listening tools to locate the issue. Then, our team will address the problem with as little disruption to your day as possible.
