About Plumbing in White Plains
As the county seat and commercial hub of Westchester, White Plains has a building stock that spans more than a century. The single-family neighborhoods of Fisher Hill, Battle Hill, and Gedney Farms feature homes built from the 1920s through the 1970s, many of which still rely on original cast-iron drain lines and galvanized water supply piping. Meanwhile, the city's growing downtown has seen a wave of new construction and condo conversions, each with their own plumbing considerations. Our network of licensed plumbers serves the full spectrum, from rodding a clogged kitchen line in a Highlands cape cod to replumbing a multi-unit building on Mamaroneck Avenue.
White Plains sits at the confluence of the Bronx River and several tributaries, and the city's combined sewer system can become overwhelmed during heavy rains, causing backups into residential basements. Homes in the Carhart and Ferris Avenue neighborhoods are particularly susceptible. Installing a backwater valve, upgrading to a reliable sump pump system, and ensuring your sewer lateral is in good condition are essential preventive measures. The plumbers in our network can camera-inspect your sewer line and recommend targeted solutions that protect your home without unnecessary expense.
For White Plains property owners considering upgrades, now is an excellent time to invest in modern plumbing. Tankless water heaters save space and energy in smaller homes and condos. PEX re-piping eliminates the corrosion problems of galvanized steel. Low-flow fixtures can reduce water bills without sacrificing performance. Whatever your project, our contractors pull proper City of White Plains permits and ensure all work passes inspection.
