The service comes through the foundation wall to the main shutoff and the meter. Then the backflow preventer: an RPZ that keeps building water out of the city main, tested every year by a state-certified tester, report filed with DEP.
Copper up the chase, a branch at each floor, an isolation valve at the riser base and on every branch. A leak upstairs is a one-floor shutdown, not the whole building.
Commercial and residential in one building, the way New York is built: a three-compartment sink over a grease interceptor and a hand sink below, a bathroom above. A stop valve at every fixture.
No-hub cast iron at a quarter inch per foot. A trap under every fixture, a vent for every trap, a cleanout at the base of the stack. Before the street: the house trap and its fresh-air inlet.
Heater with its relief line run full size to within 6 inches of the floor, an expansion tank on the cold side, and a return loop with its own pump and check valve. The far tap runs hot in seconds, not minutes.
Its own service from the street: an OS&Y valve inside the wall, a double check detector assembly, a waterflow switch on the red riser, a fire department connection on the street wall. Then the heads each space needs: upright under the bare cellar slab, pendent below the restaurant ceiling, residential heads in the apartment.
Water lines held at 150 psi for 15 minutes, drains under a 10-foot head of water: the NYC Plumbing Code tests. New sprinkler piping held at 200 psi for 1 hour, pumped in at the fire department connection: NFPA 13 as NYC amends it. Every test is logged before the inspection.
Fit-outs, new work and building systems for general contractors, owners and property managers. Bid from the drawings, scheduled by week, closed out with documentation.
Bathroom and kitchen plumbing, water heaters, leaks, drains and repiping in houses, apartments, walk-ups and co-ops. The cause found first, the price written before the work.
Each one starts the same way: understand the system, write the scope, price it. Then the work, the test, the documents.
Restaurants, retail, offices, medical. Demolition to close-out under a GC schedule.
Send the plan set. Get a priced proposal by position, with alternates and unit prices.
Renovation rough-in and trim-out: new layouts, valves, drains, fixtures, appliances.
Leaks, valves, toilets, faucets, low pressure, burst pipes. Found, then fixed.
Sizing, tank or tankless, venting, recirculation, mixing valves. Homes and commercial.
Camera inspection first. Then jetting, cable or repair: whichever the pipe needs.
RPZ and double-check devices: DEP-approved plan, installation, the yearly test, the report to DEP.
Failed galvanized, old stacks, corroded risers. Replaced in phases in occupied buildings.
Heads and mains for fit-outs, heads moved for apartment renovation, fire services. From the drawings to the DOB sign-off.
Not on this list? Send the drawings or describe the job: we say plainly whether it is ours to take.
Plumbing and sprinkler scopes bid from your set, scheduled by week, closed out with documentation. One proposal format for every job.
Riser and stack replacement in occupied buildings, hot-water plants, sprinkler work, drain and sewer problems that keep coming back.
Bathroom and kitchen plumbing, water heaters, leaks, drains and repiping. Done once, explained plainly, inspected where the code requires it.
The plan set for a fit-out; the layout, the photos and a site visit for a home. Fixtures counted, runs measured, the questions asked before the number is given.
A written scope and a written price. On commercial work: a proposal by position with alternates and unit prices. What is included is listed. What is not is listed too.
Materials per the spec, hangers at the spacing in NYC Plumbing Code Table 308.5, nothing closed before it is tested and inspected.
Pressure tests run to the NYC codes and logged: 150 psi for water lines, 200 psi for new sprinkler piping. Riser notes, as-built sketches and the close-out package the owner keeps. At home: you get told what was done and why.
We don't "take a look." We read the system: pressure, slope, material, code section. Then the failure gets fixed, not the symptom.
Yes. Commercial work is bid from a plan set sent by a GC or an owner: a quantified takeoff, a written proposal by position with alternates and unit prices, then the work under the GC schedule.
Yes. Bathroom and kitchen renovation plumbing, water heaters, repairs and leaks, drains and sewer, repiping, in houses, apartments, walk-ups and co-ops.
Yes, as projects: heads and mains for restaurant and retail fit-outs, heads moved for apartment renovation, and fire services with their backflow assembly. Under NYC Admin Code 28-401.3 a Licensed Master Plumber may do sprinklers of up to 30 heads fed from the domestic water; larger systems and any fire service are Licensed Master Fire Suppression Piping Contractor work (28-410).
All five boroughs: Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan, the Bronx and Staten Island.
