“I recently had a plumbing issue when my kitchen sink started filling up with water. I called Amazing Plumber and they arrived promptly. The plumber performed a video camera inspection of the kitchen sink drain line and found significant grease buildup. After hydro jetting, they used the camera again to confirm all the grease was gone. Very impressive service!”

“Kitchen sink was clogged called The Amazing Plumber. Spoke with Ernesto. He was very professional, gave me options, and even said if he couldn’t get it unclogged he wouldn’t charge me. Showed up on time and got my water flowing. After unclogging, he ran a camera to check for future issues. If I have any plumbing issues, I’m calling them back!”

Fontana’s hot summers with temperatures regularly exceeding 95°F can put extra stress on your plumbing system:
As Fontana transitions to cooler weather, prepare your plumbing for the changes:
Though Fontana winters are mild compared to other regions, temperatures can occasionally approach freezing, especially in northern neighborhoods:
Spring brings more rain to Fontana, creating potential challenges for your plumbing system:
Fontana’s water hardness level of 104 PPM (6 grains per gallon) is significantly higher than many neighboring communities. This hard water accelerates sediment buildup in water heaters, reducing efficiency and lifespan. We recommend annual maintenance flushes for water heaters in Fontana to maximize their operational life, especially in neighborhoods like Sierra Lakes and Village of Heritage where water hardness impact is most noticeable.
Homes in historic Fontana, particularly those built before 1970, often have aging clay or cast iron sewer lines affected by three main factors: root intrusion from mature trees, pipe deterioration due to age, and shifting soil from our region’s seismic activity. These combine to create recurring drain issues that require professional attention. Our video inspection service can identify the specific causes in your home.
South Fontana’s hillside topography, particularly around Jurupa Hills, creates natural water pressure variations. Additionally, homes built during different development periods connect to various municipal water systems with different pressure profiles. Installing a pressure regulator can help maintain consistent pressure throughout your home regardless of municipal supply fluctuations.

Peggy BirkhoferTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Just bought a home and the Master Bathroom drain was not going down. I got in contact with Hero plumbing somewhat after 4:00 PM on a Saturday hopeful I could get something scheduled soon. Ernesto indicated he would be able to stop by sometime between 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM that my home is on the way to where he is headed anyway. Next thing I know, I hear a ring at my doorbell and it was Ernesto holding some special equipment and gloves on all ready to work! Thankfully he made quick work of the problem and was courteous and even took great care to wipe down all of the clog debris/splatter up to leave the bath tub as clean as before he arrived. I am genuinely impressed by how much Hero exceeded my expectations. Aide RojasTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
