Repiping in Riverside, CA
A repipe is a big job, but it is also the one that lets you stop worrying about the next leak. We plan Riverside repipes to keep wall openings small and get your water back on quickly. Riverside is south of our Rialto shop on the I-215, and we focus on north Riverside.
Drain Edge Rooter is owned and run by a licensed plumber, Isaiah Infante (C-36 #1078977). We are based in Rialto, we answer around the clock, and our 139 Google reviews come from neighbors across the Inland Empire. Phone: (909) 927-3194.
What repiping covers
- Partial repipes of failing sections
- New shutoff valves at fixtures
- Pressure testing the new system
- Checking for the pipe types we expect in Riverside’s mix of housing (early 1900s homes and bungalows near downtown, postwar neighborhoods, and student rentals near UCR)
When it is more than a quick fix
- Low pressure throughout the house
- Galvanized pipe visible at the water heater or hose bibs
- Repeated slab leaks
- Any of the above in a Riverside home that has not had its plumbing checked in years

Repiping in Riverside: what we see locally
We focus on the northern part of Riverside, the side closest to our Rialto shop. That includes Downtown around the Mission Inn and Main Street, the Northside neighborhood, the University area near UC Riverside, and the streets around Fairmount Park and Mount Rubidoux.
Older Riverside homes may still have galvanized steel pipe, which rusts from the inside and restricts pressure. Riverside Public Utilities supplies most of the city from groundwater, and the water is hard, so scale build-up on valves, heaters and fixtures is common.
Riverside neighborhoods
North Riverside has some of the oldest homes in the region, with early 1900s houses and bungalows near downtown and postwar neighborhoods further out. Near UC Riverside there are many rentals and older homes that have been converted, so the plumbing has often been changed and patched by different people over the years.

- the Northside neighborhood
- the University area and streets near UC Riverside

- the Hunter Park area

Working in Riverside
We get to north Riverside on the I-215 or the 60, using University Avenue, Columbia Avenue, Iowa Avenue and Market Street to reach most neighborhoods. For downtown, Main Street and Market Street are the usual routes.
Downtown Riverside and the Northside have many early 1900s homes, and the plumbing in them has usually been updated in pieces. It is not unusual to find galvanized, copper and plastic on the same property, and old clay or cast-iron sewer laterals under the yard.
Near UC Riverside, many homes are rentals with heavy use. Landlords and property managers call us for tenant calls, and we send them clear notes on what we found and fixed.

Call any time, day or night. We will ask a few questions, give you an idea of timing, and help you limit damage in the meantime. On arrival, we look first and explain second, and the price is settled before any work. We test, clean up, and answer your questions before leaving.
