If you’ve got a plumbing issue in Canyon Lake, our experienced team can sort it. From urgent repairs to honest advice, we handle it all ourselves—no middlemen, just local expertise. Get in touch with us to book a visit or to chat about your plumbing concerns. We’re ready when you are.
Canyon Lake has a mix of newer homes and older plumbing systems, so problems can show up without warning. These are common issues we see and how we solve them.
Clogged drains and toilets usually happen when wipes, hair, soap buildup, and kitchen grease collect in the pipes, and our team can help with toilet installation and repair.
If it is not handled quickly, the clog can turn into a backup, water damage, and recurring blockages that keep coming back.
We locate the cause fast, clear the line fully with drain cleaning and repair, and check for deeper issues like root intrusion to prevent repeat problems.
Leaks often start at worn pipe sections, aging shutoff valves, or failed connections under sinks and behind walls. If a leak is ignored, it can lead to mold, damaged drywall, warped flooring, and higher water bills.
We pinpoint the source using leak detection tools and make focused repairs, including replacing damaged pipe sections and fittings, so the fix holds.
Water heaters can lose performance from sediment buildup, failing valves, worn heating components, or pilot and ignition issues. If you wait too long, the unit can leak, stop heating completely, or cause water damage around the tank and nearby finishes.
We test key components, flush the tank when needed, and repair or replace parts to restore steady hot water. If replacement is the better option, we size the system correctly and install it to code.
Mainline problems are often caused by root intrusion, pipe damage, or heavy buildup that restricts flow. If it is not fixed right away, sewage can back up into showers, tubs, or floor drains and create serious cleanup and health risks.
We inspect the line with a camera to find the exact problem, then clear the buildup with hydro jetting and recommend the right repair so the issue does not keep returning.
Client Testimonials
Posted on Duke Sawyer Gavin and assistant were professional, highly proficient and polite. Extremely trustworthy and helpful. I highly recommend them and their company for your plumbing service and needs.Posted on Jamie M. VanderWal Had a great experience with ACPS & Gavin. I found him working at our neighbor’s house and asked if he could come down the same day to install a dishwasher—and he did! He was extremely kind, communicative, and very reasonably priced. On top of that, he even helped with a small non-plumbing task. Highly recommend if you’re looking for someone knowledgeable and genuinely helpful.Posted on Nicole C (Nikki) Im so happy with the thorough estimate preparation, all questions answered, and quick scheduling for my water heater. They didnt rush through the job, cleaned up any mess from the work, and set up a prestine new water heater. They checked functionality and made sure it was working correctly before leaving. I also appreciated their competitive pricing. I will absolutely use them again for any plumbing needs.Posted on Christina Gatton The owner John really went above and beyond to get my kitchen plumbing working, as well as Jonathan the tech. who came to my home to do the work. This service was supposed to be covered under my home warranty, and they gave John the run around on getting the work fully covered. John could have easily dropped it, quit and given up on us and left us with an inoperable kitchen sink and disposal. He persisted with my home warranty company and with many, many attempts, he ended up getting my warranty to cover the work actually needed to get everything operational. We REALLY appreciate ALL the effort to make this happen. I am very aware that most companies would've dropped the job immediately when trouble arouse on payment. John followed through, even though it was terribly inconvenient for him during a busy season for his company. THANK YOU, John and Jonathan, for being stand up men, for getting the job done regardless of inconveniences, and for making sure all was done right, without skipping corners and to full completion. We appreciate your top-tier service, and it did not go unnoticed. Your business will indefinitely thrive due to amazing customer service. Cheers to your successful business and thank you!! I will forever refer your top-notch company and service!Posted on ftv10hb John was great, very helpful and communicative throughout issues with the home warranty company. Did quality work and was able to move up our appointments to get the job done sooner than originally scheduled by the warranty company.Posted on Cheryl Skigin Professional and and absolutely on top of everything. Diagnosed the issue from photos and descriptions before coming out so totally prepared to do the job and do it well and efficiently.Posted on Ross Friend Super fare and honest. Came out right away to help super friendly!Posted on Don Branagan Great team! John & Gavin were incredibly flexible and responsive in getting our entire household plumbing reconnected and operable, leak-free the first time, after an extensive restoration. They are THE only plumbing team I have on speed dial, you should too!! UPDATE! Had Gavin out on a service check... These guys were responsive and Gavin did a complete end-to-end inspection and re-calibration of our system. Thanks again guys for being my go-to solution!Posted on Rishikesh Majumder Excellent servicePosted on Luz Vicario The people at ACPS Plumbing & Drains were great.

FAQs
Burst pipe repairs in Canyon Lake often range from $250 to $800, depending on the size of the break, pipe material, and access. If the leak is inside a wall or under a slab, repairs can take longer and cost more due to the repair work needed to reach the line.
We provide an upfront estimate before work starts, and in most cases, urgent repairs can be completed the same day.
For major work like relocating water lines, adding plumbing for a remodel, or excavation affecting exterior drains, POA approval may be required along with Riverside County permits.
Simple interior repairs and fixture swaps usually do not need POA approval, but it depends on the scope and what is being changed. We can help you confirm what approvals apply and handle permit coordination when required.
Most Canyon Lake homes should schedule a sewer camera inspection every 2 to 3 years, especially if the property has mature trees or a history of slow drains.
Routine maintenance, jetting, or a camera inspection typically costs $190 to $450, depending on access and line length. Regular service helps prevent backups and can catch root intrusion or pipe damage before it becomes an emergency.
Both tank and tankless water heaters can work well in Canyon Lake, depending on your home’s setup and hot water demand. Tankless units can be more energy-efficient, but they may require venting, a gas line, or electrical upgrades.
Typical installation ranges from $1,200 to $3,200 based on the type of unit, permit needs, and hookup complexity. We evaluate your usage, fuel source, and layout, then recommend the most reliable option with clear pricing before installation.
