In Irvington we run emergency plumbing 24 hours a day, clear and replace sewer lines, repair and replace water heaters, and keep steam and hot-water boilers running through the winter. We also install and service furnaces, central air and ductless mini-splits.
Irvington housing is older and tougher on plumbing than most of North Jersey, and we are set up for it: cast iron cutting and replacement, galvanized repipes, steam boiler parts on the van. Call 862-666-2155.
Local knowledge
What we see in Irvington homes
Irvington is dense. Most of the township is pre-war two- and three-family frame houses on small lots, with brick apartment buildings along Springfield Avenue, Clinton Avenue and Stuyvesant Avenue, and a few blocks of single-family homes in Upper Irvington. The drain systems are cast iron stacks with clay laterals to the main, many with a curb trap in the front yard shared by the whole building. Water supply in unrenovated buildings is often galvanized steel. Heating is largely steam or hot-water gas boilers feeding radiators, with some conversions to forced air in renovated units. Many buildings have three or more water heaters in one basement.

Common calls we get from Irvington
Curb trap and lateral backups in multi-family homes
When the shared trap or clay lateral clogs, every unit backs up at once. We open the trap, clear the line, and replace the lateral in PVC when the camera shows it has collapsed.
Steam boilers that will not hold water or heat
Leaking returns, failed low-water cutoffs and stuck vents leave whole floors cold. We carry steam parts and know how to size and pipe a replacement boiler correctly.
Rotted cast iron stacks
A cast iron stack that has rusted through at the base leaks sewage into the basement. We cut out the bad section and tie in new PVC or no-hub cast iron.
Water heater changeouts for landlords
Tenants without hot water do not wait. We install replacement tanks the same day in most cases and can set up multiple units on one visit.
