Tarzana is really two neighborhoods in one. North of Ventura Boulevard, the flats are mostly single-story ranch homes from the postwar decades, many built on concrete slabs with copper water lines running underneath. South of the boulevard, the streets climb toward the Santa Monica Mountains, with larger homes on sloped lots. Each side has its own kind of emergency, and Flood Brothers Plumbing handles both. We’re a family-owned emergency plumber in Tarzana: a live person answers 24/7, and same-day service is guaranteed.
Tarzana calls are handled from our headquarters at 3940 Laurel Canyon Blvd, Ste 568 in Studio City, a straight run west through the Valley. We know these streets, these houses and the problems they tend to have.
Tarzana emergencies we see most
- A slab leak: a warm spot on the floor, the sound of running water, or a water bill that suddenly jumps
- A water heater that’s leaking or has quit, often worn down by mineral scale
- A main sewer line backup, sometimes from roots under an older yard
- A burst hose or supply line at the washing machine, toilet or sink
- Low pressure or leaking fixtures crusted with hard-water deposits
- Water spreading under flooring after a leak inside the slab
Slab homes put the water lines under the concrete, so a leak can run for a while before anyone notices. If you hear water when everything is off, feel a warm patch on the floor, or open a bill that makes no sense, shut off the main and call. We use leak detection to pinpoint the spot before cutting into anything, then walk you through the options: a targeted repair, or re-routing the line if the pipe under the slab keeps failing.
The Valley’s hard water is the other quiet troublemaker here. Mineral scale shortens the life of water heaters, clogs aerators and stiffens valves. Once your emergency is handled, we’re happy to talk about a water softener or filtration system if you’d like to slow that down. No pressure, just options.

Water where it shouldn’t be? Do this now:
- Turn off the main shut-off. On most Tarzana homes it’s near the front hose bib or where the water line enters the house. If you suspect a slab leak, leave it off until we arrive.
- Stay clear of outlets. If water is near outlets or cords, stay out of the area and switch off that breaker.
- Take photos of the water and any damage for your insurance.
- Call 855-840-7800. A live person answers 24/7 and we will stay on the line with you. Can’t talk? Text us a photo.
Tarzana emergency plumbing FAQs
How do I know if I have a slab leak?
Common signs are a warm spot on the floor, the sound of running water when nothing is on, a water meter that keeps moving with everything off, or a sudden jump in your water bill. If you notice any of these, turn off the main and call 855-840-7800.
Do you have to break up my floor to fix a slab leak?
Not always. We use leak detection to find the leak first. Sometimes a small, targeted opening is the right repair; other times re-routing the line through the walls or attic makes more sense. We’ll explain both and give you upfront pricing before any work starts.
My water heater is leaking. How fast can you help?
Same-day service is guaranteed, so a technician will be out the day you call to stop the leak and look at the heater. If it needs replacing, we’ll give you upfront pricing and tell you honestly when the new one can go in.
Does hard water really matter?
It can. Mineral scale builds up in water heaters, valves and fixtures over time. After an emergency we’re glad to talk about softening or filtration, but it’s entirely your choice.
Which office serves Tarzana?
Our Studio City headquarters at 3940 Laurel Canyon Blvd. When you call, a live person answers 24/7 and gives you a realistic arrival window.
Can I text you a photo of the problem?
Yes. Text 855-840-7800 with a photo of the leak, the water heater label or the backup, and we’ll let you know what we’ll need to bring.
