Plumber in Clifton, NJ

Clifton is one of the largest cities we serve and one of the busiest for our crews. Between Athenia, Lakeview, Botany Village, Allwood, Delawanna and Richfield there is an enormous stock of older housing, and our technicians are in Passaic County most days of the week. Clifton is a longer run north from our Roselle shop, so we group calls here and keep a van in the area whenever we can.

We provide 24/7 emergency plumbing, drain cleaning, sewer camera inspection and lateral replacement, water heater repair and installation, gas boiler and furnace service, and central and ductless air conditioning across the city.

Clifton has real flooding history along the Passaic River and Weasel Brook, so sump pumps, backwater valves and basement drainage are a big part of what we do here. Call 862-666-2155.

Local knowledge

What we see in Clifton homes

Clifton grew in waves. Botany Village and the Lakeview and Athenia sections have 1900s to 1920s two-family frame houses and small apartment buildings; Allwood, Richfield, Rosemawr and Montclair Heights are mostly 1940s to 1960s capes, ranches and split-levels. Older sections mean cast iron drains, galvanized supply and clay laterals, sometimes with a curb trap. The postwar neighborhoods have original copper that is now decades old, finished basements with sump pumps, and first-generation central air systems on their last legs. Heating is a mix of gas hot-water boilers, older steam in the two-families, and forced-air furnaces. The low blocks near the Passaic River and along Weasel Brook see basement water in big storms.

Common calls we get from Clifton

Basement flooding near the Passaic River and Weasel Brook
A single sump pump with no backup is not enough on the low side of Clifton. We install properly sized pumps, battery backups and backwater valves so sewer water cannot come up the floor drain during a storm.
Sewer backups from roots in clay laterals
The older streets have big trees and old clay pipe. We clear roots, camera the line and replace failed sections in PVC.
Aging central air in the split-level sections
Systems installed in the 1980s and 1990s are failing capacitors, fan motors and compressors every summer. We repair what makes sense and replace what does not.
No hot water in two-family homes
Older tanks in Botany Village and Lakeview basements fail without warning. We replace them the same day in most cases.

“5 stars all around. Came out as quickly as possible and it was late night. Great customer service. And fixed my issue with tips for the future so that I can maintain my plumbing. Thanks!”

“If you need work done and don't want to waste money on the same repair call Moe. Truly wished I found the company sooner, it would've saved me a lot of headache and expenses. When I called and explained my situation, without seeing the repair he already knew what needed to be done. He visited the same day and shortly after fixed a damaged pipe that could've taken out the lower half of my home. On site, Moe thoroughly explained the repairs needed at a reasonable cost. Polite, professional and truly knowledgeable.”

“Master's was a godsend. We called late at night when our basement started flooding out of nowhere and Moe immediately came over. He was able to fix our issue and walked us through what caused it, what to expect, how to handle it if it happens again, and long term fix options. He was outstanding and I highly recommend Moe and Master's!”

FAQ

Clifton service questions

Still have a question? We answer 24/7.

Call 862-666-2155

Do you handle sewer work that requires a Clifton street opening permit?

Yes. If the lateral repair reaches into the roadway, we file the street opening permit and the plumbing permit with the city, schedule the inspection, and restore the road surface to the city's requirement. You sign the application and we handle the rest.

Can you install a backwater valve to stop sewer backups?

Yes. A backwater valve on the main drain keeps street sewage from flowing backwards into the basement when the municipal system surcharges. It is one of the most useful upgrades for the flood-prone parts of Clifton.

How does distance from Roselle affect service in Clifton?

Clifton is a longer drive for us than Union County towns, so we schedule non-emergency work in clusters and give you a realistic arrival window for emergencies rather than a promise we cannot keep.

Do you service ductless mini-splits in older Clifton homes?

Yes. Ductless is often the best option for two-family houses and capes without ductwork. We install, repair and maintain all major brands.
