What makes Upland different
Upland climbs uphill from the 10 toward the San Gabriel foothills, and the housing changes as you go. Around Historic Downtown and the Euclid Avenue corridor, there are older homes on mature lots with long-established trees. Near Foothill Boulevard, the old Route 66, where the Madonna of the Trail statue stands at Euclid, you get a mix of older and mid-century homes.
Once a Upland home has one slab leak, more are likely, which is why we talk about rerouting instead of just patching. Upland draws on local groundwater and canyon water as well as imported supply, and the water is hard enough that mineral scale is a regular factor in fixture and heater problems.
Our Upland service area
North of the 210, around the Upland Hills and up toward San Antonio Heights, homes are generally newer and larger. The citrus-grove history of the city means a lot of older lots still have big trees, and tree roots are a frequent reason we end up working on Upland sewer laterals.
- Historic Downtown Upland around Second Avenue
- neighborhoods along Euclid Avenue north and south of Foothill Boulevard
- San Antonio Heights and the foothill streets above 24th Street
- the Upland Hills area
- the Colonies area near the 210
- streets near Cable Airport and Mountain Avenue
Working in Upland
From our Rialto shop we usually take the 210 west to Upland and get off at Euclid Avenue, Campus Avenue or Mountain Avenue, depending on which part of town we are headed to. For homes south of Foothill, the 10 and Euclid can be faster.
Many Upland streets north of Foothill Boulevard are lined with big trees, and the citrus history means some lots still have old trees close to the house. Those roots are hard on clay sewer laterals, and that is a big reason we bring a camera on Upland drain calls.
Up toward San Antonio Heights, homes sit on slopes at the base of the mountains, which affects water pressure and how sewer lines are graded. In Historic Downtown around Second Avenue, older homes and small businesses sit close together, so we plan access and parking before we arrive.

Slab Leak Repair FAQ for Upland
What about drain leaks under the slab?
Drain lines can leak too. A camera inspection shows their condition.
Is a slab leak an emergency?
An active leak should be dealt with quickly because water can damage flooring, walls and the foundation. If you hear water running, shut off the main and call.
Spot repair or reroute?
A spot repair fixes one leak. A reroute replaces the failing line with a new path and is often better if the copper is wearing thin.
