Emergency Plumbing (24/7)
Plumbing disasters don't wait for business hours, and neither do we. New York Plumbing Pros provides true round-the-clock emergency plumbing services throughout all five boroughs. Whether it's a burst pipe at 2 AM, a backed-up sewer on Thanksgiving morning, or a water heater failure during a polar vortex, our licensed technicians arrive fully equipped to stop the damage and restore your system. We maintain a fleet of stocked service vehicles positioned strategically across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island to guarantee rapid response times.
Common emergencies we resolve include frozen pipe bursts, catastrophic leaks, overflowing toilets, gas line concerns, and major drain backups that threaten property damage. Our emergency dispatch center answers calls 24/7 at (888) 217-3928—no answering services, no callbacks in the morning. Emergency service calls typically start at $195–$350 for after-hours and holiday response, with transparent pricing provided before any work begins. We accept all major credit cards and offer financing for larger emergency repairs.
Drain Cleaning
Slow drains and recurring clogs are more than inconveniences—they're warning signs of deeper plumbing issues. Our comprehensive drain cleaning services tackle everything from kitchen grease buildup to bathroom hair accumulations and soap scum blockages. Using professional-grade augers, hydro-jetting equipment, and video inspection technology, we don't just clear the immediate clog; we identify what's causing repeat problems so you can avoid future service calls.
Homeowners frequently call us for sinks that gurgle, showers that pool ankle-deep, garbage disposals that back up, and floor drains that emit foul odors. We also address more severe cases including main line blockages and tree root intrusions. Standard drain cleaning services range from $125–$275 for simple sink or tub clogs, while main sewer line cleaning with hydro-jetting typically runs $350–$650 depending on line length and blockage severity. Ask about our annual drain maintenance plans for apartment buildings and multi-unit properties.
Water Heater Repair & Installation
Reliable hot water is non-negotiable in New York living, and our water heater specialists handle both traditional tank models and modern tankless systems. For tank water heaters, we repair faulty thermostats, replace heating elements, fix pilot light issues, address sediment buildup, and resolve pressure relief valve failures. When replacement makes more sense than repair, we install energy-efficient models that qualify for utility rebates and meet current NYC building codes.
Tankless water heater demand has surged among New York homeowners seeking space savings and endless hot water. We install gas and electric tankless units, handle required venting modifications, and ensure proper gas line sizing for optimal performance. Common problems we solve include inconsistent water temperature, rumbling tanks, rusty water, and units that simply can't keep up with household demand. Tank water heater repairs typically run $150–$450; replacements including installation average $1,200–$2,800. Tankless installations range from $2,500–$4,500 depending on fuel type and installation complexity. Call (888) 217-3928 for same-day water heater assessment.
Leak Detection & Repair
Hidden leaks waste thousands of gallons annually and can destroy structural elements before you ever see water stains. Our advanced leak detection services use acoustic listening devices, thermal imaging cameras, and moisture meters to pinpoint leaks behind walls, under concrete slabs, and within ceilings without unnecessary demolition. We trace both pressurized water line leaks and drainage leaks that develop in aging copper, galvanized steel, and polybutylene piping common throughout New York's older housing stock.
Signs you may need professional leak detection include unexpectedly high water bills, the sound of running water when fixtures are off, warm spots on floors, foundation cracks, and persistent musty odors. Once located, we provide repair options ranging from spot repairs to partial repiping, always prioritizing minimally invasive solutions. Leak detection service calls start at $275–$450; actual repair costs depend on accessibility and pipe material but typically range from $350–$1,200 for accessible leaks. We document findings for insurance claims when water damage has occurred.
Toilet, Faucet & Fixture Services
Dripping faucets and running toilets are water-wasting nuisances that also drive up utility costs. Our fixture specialists repair and replace all residential and commercial plumbing fixtures, from vintage clawfoot tub faucets requiring specialized parts to modern smart toilets with integrated bidet functions. We work with all major brands including Kohler, Moen, Delta, Grohe, Toto, and American Standard, and we carry common repair parts to complete most service calls in a single visit.
Frequent requests include toilet flange replacement to stop rocking and leaking, cartridge and ceramic disc faucet repairs, shower valve rebuilds for temperature control issues, and complete fixture upgrades during renovations. We also install water-efficient fixtures that reduce consumption and qualify for NYC water conservation incentives. Simple faucet repairs start at $125–$225; toilet repairs range $150–$350; full fixture replacements including supply lines and shutoff valves typically run $275–$650 per fixture. Commercial and high-end designer fixtures quoted individually.
Sewer Line Services
Your sewer line is the critical artery removing wastewater from your property, and when it fails, normal life stops immediately. We provide complete sewer line diagnostics, cleaning, repair, and replacement using trenchless technologies that preserve your landscaping, sidewalks, and driveways. Our video camera inspections reveal pipe condition, identify bellies and separations, and document tree root penetration in older clay or Orangeburg piping still found in many Queens and Brooklyn neighborhoods.
Warning signs of sewer line trouble include multiple drain backups simultaneously, sewage odors indoors or in the yard, lush green patches over the sewer path, and foundation moisture issues. We offer traditional excavation repairs when necessary, but increasingly recommend trenchless pipe lining and burst replacement methods that require only small access points. Sewer camera inspections cost $275–$450; spot repairs range $1,500–$4,000; trenchless lining typically runs $85–$250 per linear foot; full replacement projects are quoted following inspection. Call (888) 217-3928 to schedule priority sewer assessment.
Sump Pump Services
Basement flooding is a constant threat in low-lying New York areas, and a properly functioning sump pump is your first defense. We install, repair, and maintain sump pump systems for single-family homes, brownstones, and commercial basements throughout flood-prone neighborhoods. Our installations include proper pit sizing, check valve placement, discharge line routing to street drains, and battery backup systems that protect during power outages when flooding risk peaks.
Common sump pump problems we address include pumps that cycle continuously, fail to activate, make grinding noises, or simply can't keep pace with heavy rainfall. We replace failed float switches, clear clogged discharge lines, upgrade undersized pumps, and install dual-pump systems for critical applications. We also service and replace sewage ejector pumps in basement bathrooms. Standard sump pump replacement runs $650–$1,200; new installations with pit excavation average $1,500–$3,500; battery backup systems add $450–$850. Spring maintenance inspections are strongly recommended before peak storm season.
Bathroom & Kitchen Plumbing
Kitchens and bathrooms represent the highest-use plumbing zones in any home, and our renovation and repair expertise ensures these spaces function flawlessly. For bathroom projects, we handle rough-in plumbing for tub-to-shower conversions, install curbless accessible showers, relocate fixtures to improve layouts, and coordinate with contractors on tile and fixture specifications. Kitchen services include dishwasher and refrigerator water line installation, garbage disposal replacement, pot filler faucet installation, and reconfiguration of sink and appliance locations.
We specialize in the unique challenges of New York's compact spaces—galley kitchens, combined bath-shower units, and plumbing walls shared between adjacent apartments. Our permits team navigates NYC Department of Buildings requirements, including required filings for wet-over-dry restrictions and gas line work. Kitchen plumbing updates for appliance installation typically range $350–$850; bathroom rough-in and fixture installation for renovations averages $2,500–$7,500 depending on scope; complete gut renovations with permit expediting quoted per project. We coordinate scheduling to minimize disruption in occupied residences.
