About Utility Plumbing Services
Utility Plumbing Services is a licensed residential and commercial plumbing company serving Rancho Cucamonga and the greater Inland Empire since 2022. It was founded by Cody McLeod — a second-generation plumber who grew up around the trade and built the company on a simple idea printed on every truck: make U the priority. That focus has earned a 5.0-star Google rating across 283 reviews and an A+ with the Better Business Bureau, and it’s why homeowners from Eastvale to Claremont call Utility first.

Our story: traditional values, modern inspiration
Cody McLeod is a second-generation plumber, and it shows in how the company works — the old-school habits of honest pricing and doing the job right the first time, paired with the modern tools that make plumbing faster and less invasive. Where a previous generation guessed, Utility runs a camera. Where a stubborn clog once meant tearing into a wall, hydro jetting clears the line and a camera inspection confirms it. Same values Cody grew up with; better technology behind them.
The Inland Empire keeps a plumber busy. Hard water scales up water heaters and fixtures across Rancho Cucamonga and Ontario, older Claremont and Pomona homes hide aging cast-iron and galvanized lines, and new construction out in Eastvale and Fontana brings its own surprises. So Utility grew into a full-service shop — drain cleaning and hydro jetting, water heaters tank and tankless, leak detection, sewer line repair and replacement, gas lines, repipes, and kitchen and bath remodels — so one trusted team covers the emergency at 2 AM and the remodel six months later. Cody and the crew treat customers like neighbors, because in the Inland Empire, they are.
Our commitment
We make U the priority — it’s on the trucks because it’s the whole point. That means honest, upfront pricing, a detailed inspection and accurate estimate before work starts, and technicians who respect your home and your time. Whether it’s a $88 drain cleaning or a full sewer replacement, you get the same locally owned, family-minded team across Rancho Cucamonga, Ontario, Chino, Fontana, Upland, Claremont, Montclair, Eastvale, Pomona, Riverside, and communities throughout the Inland Empire.
Cody McLeod named to the 2026 Top 40 Under 40
Cody McLeod, president and founder of Utility Plumbing Services, has been named one of Plumbing & Mechanical and Supply House Times’ 2026 Top 40 Under 40 honorees — the annual list recognising people under 40 making an impact across the plumbing, heating, cooling and piping trades. We asked him about the work behind it.
Twenty years in the trade, at 36
“I started as a teenager. Most people don’t realise that — they see a title and assume I came in through an office. I came up through the trenches. Those early years taught me grit, discipline and respect for the trade, and they still shape how I lead.”
On being a second-generation plumber
“The industry has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up watching my father build a plumbing business, and I saw what it actually takes — the hard work, the skill, the sacrifice. Plumbing gave me a way to carry that forward while building something of my own.”
The most rewarding part of the work
“The impact. We solve essential problems for our customers, but we also create careers for our employees and their families. Watching someone develop their skills, gain confidence and build a better life through this trade is hard to beat.”
What keeps him motivated
“My fiancée, my team, and the responsibility that comes with leading one. I want to keep raising the standard for professionalism in this industry and build a company people are proud to work for. Helping develop the next generation of tradespeople and future business owners matters to me just as much.”
What he wishes more people understood about plumbing
“It is not simply manual labour. It takes technical expertise, problem-solving, communication and constant education. It is also a career with real opportunity in it for anyone willing to learn, work hard and take pride in their craft.”
His proudest moment so far
“Carrying my family’s plumbing legacy forward while creating a new identity through Utility Plumbing Services. Seeing our people grow professionally, support their families and take pride in representing this company means more to me than any sales figure. Being named PHCC of California’s 2025 Young Entrepreneur of the Year, and serving on the PHCC of California State Board, were tremendous honours too — recognition from an industry that has given me a great deal.”
Traditional values, modern inspiration. Same person in the office as in the trenches.
Our Reviews
“Utility plumbing provides the best service I have ever received from any contractor. Cody, the owner, is a solid guy & really cares about his community and his customers. Stop your search immediately and call Utility plumbing. You will not be disappointed.”
Joseph Ates
“We called Utility Plumbing out for their services thinking it would be something smaller than anticipated. However, until further investigation David pointed out our real issue and gave us options that could work. Ultimately we went with his professional opinion and had them perform the necessary work which they were able to knocked it out the next day. Small/big job, we look forward to calling them out next time we need them or referring them to anyone looking for plumbing services.”
Eduardo Aguero
“Isaiah did a fantastic job. I feel so relieved that we were able to get our issue resolved quickly and professionally. I appreciate Isaiah’s detailed explanation of the issue and solution and his help communicating the issue to our Realtor as well. Amazing job. Would 100% use and trust again.”
