Plumber in Paterson, NJ

Paterson's housing is some of the oldest in North Jersey, and it keeps a plumber busy. Master's Plumbing works in the Eastside, Hillcrest, the Totowa section, South Paterson, Riverside and the streets around the Great Falls, mostly in two- and three-family homes and small apartment buildings. It is a longer drive from Roselle, so we plan Paterson days and keep the van stocked for the problems we know we will find.

Services here center on emergency plumbing, main sewer line cleaning and replacement, cast iron stack repair, galvanized repiping, water heaters for multi-family buildings, and steam and hot-water boiler service. We also install furnaces, central air and ductless systems.

Landlords, property managers and owner-occupants all get the same thing from us: a straight diagnosis, a firm price and licensed work that passes inspection. Call 862-666-2155.

Local knowledge

What we see in Paterson homes

Most of Paterson's residential blocks are pre-war frame two- and three-family houses, brick rowhouses and small walk-up apartment buildings, with larger single-family homes in Hillcrest and parts of the Eastside. Inside, that means cast iron drain stacks, clay sewer laterals to the city main, shared curb traps, galvanized steel supply in unrenovated buildings, and radiators fed by steam or hot-water boilers. Many basements hold two or three water heaters side by side. Streets near the Passaic River and the falls have high groundwater and older, deeper sewer connections.

Common calls we get from Paterson

  • Whole-building sewer backups

    One clogged trap or collapsed clay lateral takes every unit down. We open the line, camera it and replace the lateral in PVC when it has failed, with city permits handled.

  • Steam boilers running dry or banging

    Leaking wet returns, failed low-water cutoffs and bad venting are common in Paterson's older boilers. We repair or replace and pipe the new boiler correctly.

  • Rusted galvanized supply and low pressure

    Third-floor units get a trickle because the galvanized risers have closed up. We repipe in copper or PEX, one unit or the whole building.

  • Leaking cast iron stacks and drum traps

    Cracked stacks and old drum traps under tubs leak into the unit below. We replace them with modern materials and properly vented traps.

FAQ

Paterson service questions

Do you service multi-family buildings in Paterson?
Yes. Two-, three- and four-family houses and small apartment buildings are most of our Paterson work. We give itemized pricing by unit and can invoice the owner or management company.
Can you replace a sewer lateral that runs under a Paterson street?
Yes. We file the street opening permit and plumbing permit with the city, dig and replace the line in PVC, tie into the main, and restore the trench and roadway as required.
My tenants have no heat and the boiler is steam. Can you come tonight?
Yes. No-heat calls in freezing weather are prioritized. We carry low-water cutoffs, ignition parts and vents for steam systems on the van.
Do you repipe galvanized water lines in older Paterson homes?
Yes. We replace galvanized supply with copper or PEX. In a multi-family building we can do it floor by floor to limit downtime for tenants.
