"Overall, I had a great experience working with Precision Painting Plus. From a professional standpoint they were excellent — great communication, quick response time, and thorough follow-up. The painting itself looks very good, but I did notice a few spots that could have been cleaner, such as some paint on the white moldings, a drip mark, and areas around the trim that weren’t as sharp as I’d hoped. Nothing major, but worth mentioning. All in all, I would recommend them and would use them again, just with a little more attention to detail next time."

We are a family owned and operated plumbing company serving New Jersey. We specialize in home plumbing and heating repairs, boiler and water heater replacements, and renovations. We're the company that you call to handle jobs too complicated for other plumbers.

"This is the second time we've hired Cronin Plumbing and are super happy. Easy communication, punctual, excellent work. We kept running out of hot water trying to fill up our bathtub and instead of installing a new larger hot water tank, Pat suggested installing a mixing valve which saved us a thousand $$."

201-286-9016! We service Northern New Jersey. We are problem solvers on all facets of plumbing and work with small renovations to new homes or light commercial new construction projects. We also do sewer and drain cleaning and replacement. We work on single family homes, condos, townhouses, apartment buildings, high rise buildings, commercial buildings, etc.

"We hired Angler to replace the valves controlling the water to outside our house and were pleased with the work, the price, and the staff. We rely on this water for the garden so it was important to get this fixed fast. Angler showed up the next day exactly when they said they would and quickly replaced the valves. They clearly explained what they did. They didn't try to sell us unnecessary work but did make suggestions for a few other things we might want to consider getting fixed in the future. The worker was very carefully in terms of COVID-19 and always had his mask on when entering our home. Definitely would recommend them."

Our company works on any and all plumbing problems. Our services includes boiler installations, replacement and repairs. We also service and install tankless water heaters. We also provide drain-cleaning and sewer services. We can meet or beat any legitimate proposal from a contractor. Owner, David Henry, worked in plumbing and heating for 14 years. He started his own company, Universal Maintenance in 2017.

"Universal Service is an exceptional team and I'm grateful for the level of service I received. David the Owner was professional, approachable and someone you can rely on. Universal came to my home to install a new boiler, offered maintenance to my heater and helped me with a last minute request to adjust my oven gas line (which was installed incorrectly by the previous owners). While they are in the business to get their hands dirty, Universal offers white glove service which is always appreciated. Cost are reasonable, they are quick and a trusted company. I now have a new go-to plumber I feel confident will represent my best interest and someone I know will get the job done right. Thank you David and team!"

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Just as frozen pipes can cause a blocked sink that won’t drain, frozen toilet pipes can block water from flushing down the drain pipe and prevent the tank from refilling, depending on which lines are frozen. To clear a frozen drain pipe, you can fill the toilet tank or bowl with warm water and flush, allowing the water to thaw the pipe as it rushes through.

Biodegradable drain cleaners use naturally derived ingredients that bacteria and other microbes can break down without being harmed. As a result, these ingredients are usually gentler on your fixtures and can be less harmful to the environment. Unlike traditional cleaners, DIY biodegradable cleaners use common household ingredients to clear your drainpipes, making the process safer for you.

Yes, hiring a drain cleaner is worth it, especially when compared to the cost of not being able to use a sink, shower, toilet, or bathtub and the potential damage that flooding can cause in your home. You might try a temporary drain cleaning liquid or snaking it yourself, but if the clog is out of reach or these methods do not work, then hiring a professional drain cleaner is the way to go.

There are a few ways to unclog a toilet without a plunger. Break up the clog with homemade solutions containing soap, vinegar, and baking soda, or simply let hot water spend some time in the drain. You can also use a two-liter soda bottle filled with water to push pressurized water into the pipe to dislodge the debris (see the steps above).

There are several signs that can indicate your leach lines are broken, failing, or in need of repair, including puddles of water or a marshy consistency to the ground above or around the pipes, slow drainage or plumbing backups inside your home, and noticeable odors or gurgling sounds coming from your leach field. Keeping your septic system properly maintained, including having your septic tank pumped at regular intervals, can help ensure your leach lines stay in good working order for a long time.
