Plumbing service in Chino
Chino incorporated in 1910 and was dairy country from the 1950s into the 1980s. Today it's a mix of older neighborhoods around downtown and The Preserve, a newer master-planned community on the south side. Rooter Warrior Plumbing & Drain Cleaning serves homes and businesses across Chino, ZIP codes 91708 and 91710. We're veteran- and family-owned, based on Third Street in Riverside, about 22 road miles from Chino City Hall.
Older homes and new ones
Chino's median home was built in 1987, according to Census data. About 38% of homes were built before 1980, and about 38% in 2000 or later.
- Older homes can have aging galvanized water lines and clay or cast-iron sewer lines. Look for low pressure, rusty water, slow drains and backups. See repiping and sewer line repair.
- Newer homes in The Preserve are into water heater replacements, tankless upgrades and the first worn valves and fixtures. See water heater services.
The City of Chino's water heater guidance says a permit is required any time a water heater is replaced, along with two seismic straps.
Chino's water is very hard
The City of Chino supplies most of the city's water. Monte Vista Water District serves some areas. About 73% of the city's 2025 supply was treated groundwater from city wells and the Chino desalters, and the rest was imported. Its 2025 water quality report shows:
- City wells averaging 248 mg/L of hardness (230 to 260), which is very hard
- Desalted groundwater averaging 148
- Imported water averaging 90.8
Water that hard shortens water heater life, scales tankless units and crusts fixtures. A water softener or filtration system is one of the most useful upgrades for a Chino home.
The city also runs a lead service line replacement program. The pipe from the meter to your house is yours. If it leaks or you're replacing old lines, see water line repair & replacement.
