Homeowners and landlords
Most Queens calls come from the owner of the house, often a landlord with tenants on the other floors. We talk directly, explain what the house needs and what can wait, and put every price in writing.

Plumbing Built for Queens Houses, Co-ops and Apartment Buildings
Queens is the borough where New Yorkers own houses, and houses have their own plumbing problems. Attached brick two-families in Astoria and Ridgewood from the 1920s and 30s with one water service and two of everything else. Detached frame and brick houses in Bayside, Whitestone and Fresh Meadows with lawns, driveways and a sewer lateral under all of it. Basements that were finished, rented or both, with a bathroom added on a pump. And a water heater and a boiler in every one of them, often past their prime.
The apartment side of the borough is just as varied. Jackson Heights garden co-ops from the 1920s with courtyards and landmark rules. Six-story prewars in Forest Hills, Rego Park and Kew Gardens with steam heat and co-op boards. Postwar brick buildings in Elmhurst and Flushing with galvanized that has narrowed to a trickle. The new towers of Long Island City and Astoria on the waterfront with booster pumps and pressure zones. And the restaurant corridors of Main Street, Roosevelt Avenue, Ditmars and Steinway, with commercial kitchens running from morning to midnight.
NYC Plumber Co works across all of it. Our plumbers know what happens to a Woodside basement apartment when the combined sewer surcharges, know that parts of Forest Hills and Kew Gardens sit on ground that sends water into cellars without a storm, and know the difference between the Con Edison gas territory in the north and west of the borough and the National Grid territory in the south and center, because the restoration process is different.
Ida in 2021 filled basements across Woodside, Elmhurst, Forest Hills and Flushing in under an hour, and Sandy took Howard Beach and the Rockaways. Backwater valves, sump pumps with battery backup, raised equipment and a sewer line that can handle the surge are the most important plumbing a Queens homeowner can buy.
Timing Plumbing Work Around Queens Homes, Buildings and Distances
Co-ops and garden apartments
Jackson Heights, Forest Hills, Kew Gardens and Rego Park co-ops have boards, managing agents and certificates of insurance like Manhattan, with a little less formality. Landmark rules apply in Jackson Heights and parts of Ridgewood. We send the paperwork before the visit.
Two gas utilities
Con Edison in the north and west of Queens, National Grid in the south and center. A gas shutoff in Astoria and a gas shutoff in Jamaica follow different restoration steps, and we know both.
The size of the borough
Queens is big, and a plumber's day here is shaped by the LIE, the Van Wyck and Queens Boulevard. We give windows we can keep. Emergencies get the nearest available plumber, and scheduled work gets grouped by neighborhood so nobody waits on traffic.
Sewer, Sump Pump, Water Heater and Emergency Plumbing for Queens Properties
Sewer line repair for laterals under lawns, driveways and sidewalks across the borough, cracked by roots, bellied by settlement, or collapsed after decades of clay. Camera first, DEP and DOT permits, spot repair, lining or replacement, and a backwater valve on the house connection for any basement that has taken water. Sump pumps with battery backup for houses on ground that stays wet.
Emergency plumbing 24 hours a day for sewer backups, burst pipes in unheated basements and crawlspaces, no heat in a two-family in January, and no hot water in a rental where the landlord is on the hook.
Water heater repair and water heater installation for the basement tanks in every house in the borough, separate units for each apartment in a two- or three-family, power-vent and tankless installs where the chimney is gone, and heat pump water heaters for owners with the space and the electric panel for them.
Boiler repair for house boilers, steam and hot water, gas and oil, separate systems for each unit, one-pipe steam in the prewar co-ops, oil-to-gas conversions, and pre-season service across the borough.
Drain cleaning for house kitchen lines, basement floor drains, laundry lines that surge when the washer dumps, and the restaurant kitchen lines along Main Street, Roosevelt Avenue and Ditmars Boulevard. Cable, jetter and camera.
Gas line repair, new lines for kitchens, dryers and boilers, gas service upgrades for conversions, Local Law 152 inspections for the apartment buildings, and restoration through Con Edison or National Grid depending on where the house sits.
Pipe repair for galvanized supply lines in the prewar houses and apartment buildings, frozen pipes in exterior walls and crawlspaces, cast iron stacks, lead water services and the layers of copper and PEX from decades of basement bathrooms.
Leak detection in two-family houses where the leak from the upstairs bathroom is the downstairs tenant's ceiling, and in co-ops where the board wants a report before a wall opens.
Toilet repair and faucet and fixture installation for house renovations, basement bathrooms, rental turnovers and co-op apartments.
Commercial plumbing for restaurants, bakeries, markets, warehouses, studios and small commercial buildings across the borough, with grease trap service, backflow testing and maintenance agreements.
