Seasonal timing

Freezing nights run about 79 a year and the median first frost sits near November 11, later than Newark or Arden get it. Old brick holds cold, so an unheated corner of a house this age runs colder than the thermometer in the hall suggests.

Common questions

How much does a plumber cost?

It depends on the job and how bad the problem is. That is why the first step is a phone call. Describe the problem and get your free estimate on the phone, with upfront pricing.

Will I talk to a real person?

Yes, you will.

Do I need to fill out a form?

No forms and no waiting on emailed quotes. One phone call is all it takes.

Can I get help at night or on a weekend?

We have plumbers ready to help families in the community 24/7, but moment-to-moment availability depends on demand. Call to find out how soon we can service your home.

Does a historic-district house need approval before plumbing work?

Exterior changes in the historic district are generally subject to town approval, while work that stays inside the walls is a different matter. The town office can confirm what a specific address requires before anything gets opened up.

Why do basements take on water after a nor'easter?

A surge on the Delaware River lifts groundwater across the low ground behind the waterfront, and that pressure finds any crack in an old stone or brick foundation. Sump pumps in New Castle work harder in those stretches than they do in Middletown, which sits higher and inland.

What kind of supply pipe is common in the oldest part of town?

Galvanized steel is the common one, with copper in whatever got redone during the second half of the 1900s. The age spread from house to house on a single block is wide, so what one neighbor found says little about the next.

How hot does a summer get down by the river?

Around 23 days a year clear 90 degrees and July highs average 88, a bit warmer than Newark up the road. Damp heat in a stone cellar is the seasonal complaint more than the plumbing itself.

Should I wait to call?

You already know that plumbing problems don't go away on their own. And waiting just increases the risks to your house. Plumbers see this hesitation all the time. Instead of regretting not calling earlier, just make that 2-minute call now and get your free estimate.
