Full‑Service Plumbing
Emergency Plumbing (24/7 Emergency Plumber)
Burst line at 2 a.m.? Overflowing toilet before guests arrive? We prioritize emergency calls with quick arrival windows and stocked trucks. We’ll locate the failure, stop the damage, and perform a safe, code‑compliant repair. For major leaks, shut off the main valve and call (484) 655-5369.
Leak Detection & Pipe Repair
Hidden leaks waste water and can rot framing. We use moisture meters and non‑invasive techniques to pinpoint the source behind walls or under floors. Whether you have a dripping supply, a corroded galvanized section, or a PEX fitting that’s failed, we’ll repair or replace the bad run and restore pressure without tearing up your home.
Drain Cleaning & Sewer Service
Slow drains, recurring clogs, or gurgling fixtures usually point to buildup or partial blockage. We clear kitchen, bath, and main lines using the right method for the job: professional snaking for soft obstructions, high‑pressure water jetting for grease and scale, and camera inspection to verify the pipe is clear end‑to‑end. If roots or a sagging line are the culprit, we’ll document it on video and propose long‑term fixes.
Water Heaters: Repair & Replacement (Water Heater Repair & Installation)
No hot water, inconsistent temperatures, or leaks around the tank are all warning signs. We service standard tank, high‑efficiency, and tankless units. If repair isn’t cost‑effective, we’ll size a replacement correctly for your household, handle permits, and remove the old unit. Ask about options that reduce energy use and recover faster.
Bathrooms, Kitchens, & Fixtures
From a leaking faucet to a full fixture refresh, we install sinks, faucets, disposals, dishwashers, ice lines, shower valves, and comfort‑height toilets. We match finishes, protect cabinetry and tile, and test every connection before we leave.
Sump Pumps & Backup Systems
Kunkletown basements see their share of heavy rain. A reliable primary pump plus a battery backup protects your home when the power fails. We test check valves, discharge routing, and alarms so you’re covered during storms.
Water Quality & Well Systems
On a well? We help with pressure issues, pressure tanks, switches, and sanitizing. For water quality, we install and maintain softeners, carbon filters, and reverse osmosis systems to reduce hardness, iron, sulfur odors, and sediments that stain fixtures and clog appliances.
Repiping & Upgrades
Older galvanized or polybutylene lines can cause low flow, discoloration, and surprise leaks. We plan repipes that minimize wall opening, use modern materials, and bring everything up to code. This improves pressure, reliability, and resale value.
Commercial Light Plumbing
We support small offices, retail, and light commercial spaces with fixture installs, backflow device service, and quick repairs that keep your doors open.

Maintenance That Prevents Emergencies

For homes on well water, we validate pressure tank settings and inspect switches to avoid short‑cycling.Pricing & Value

You approve everything before we start, and we keep you updated if site conditions change.Frequently Asked Questions
If the tank is leaking from the body or the unit is past typical lifespan (8–12 years for tanks), replacement is usually the smart call. Thermostat, igniter, or valve issues on a newer unit can often be repaired cost‑effectively. We’ll lay out the numbers so you can decide with confidence.

Prices depend on access, parts, and time. Opening finished walls or ceilings takes longer to protect and restore. Older homes may need adapters to transition from galvanized or copper to modern PEX. Water heater quotes vary by capacity, recovery rate, venting, and warranty length. Drain cleaning can be simple if it’s a hair clog near a trap, and more complex if we’re cutting roots 40 feet out in a clay main. We’ll show you the options and where you can save without cutting corners.- Access and location of the repair
- Parts quality and warranty length you prefer
- Code upgrades required during replacements
- After‑hours emergency vs. scheduled maintenance
Energy & Water‑Saving Upgrades
Small changes add up. Pressure‑balanced shower valves improve comfort and safety. High‑efficiency fixtures reduce water use without the weak‑shower feeling. For water heaters, better insulation and right‑sized units reduce standby losses. Tankless units excel for continuous hot water in the right application; we’ll verify gas supply, venting, and usage patterns before recommending one.Safety & Code Basics We Never Skip
- Proper venting and combustion air for gas appliances
- Expansion tank where required to protect your system
- T&P relief valve discharge routing for water heaters
- Dielectric unions when dissimilar metals meet
- Accessible, labeled main shutoff and fixture valves
