Celebrating over 40 years in business! Harding Plumbing and Heating Co. was started in 1978, with over 60 years combined experience. We are a family owned & operated company, E.P.A. certified and fully insured. We offer fair pricing for excellent workmanship. We stand behind our work & business name. With 24 hour emergency service and 7 technicians we have the ability to complete large and small projects.

"Thanks to Harding we will not have to enter this years cold season without heat! We are in the process of buying an older house that still had its (almost) original boiler furnace. They were quick to get to our house (we live outside of the Perry area and they never hesitated on wanting to help us) to inspect and even send a second guy (SAME DAY!) to give us a pretty good quote. They were quick to schedule the complete install of our new unit and the guys who came and worked on it were amazing! So friendly and professional who made sure we had all of the questions we could think of answered before they left (they even took the ancient broken system with them.) They made sure to walk us through the upkeep once winter ends and double tested everything to make sure it was going to do what it was supposed to do! Now that we have our full unit replaced we can sleep peaceful (and toasty warm) this winter and for the winters to come. Gladly recommend these guys for any questions, repairs, or replacements!"

We are your expert problem solver for the septic and sewer industry in the western New York area, providing the know-how and technology to solve any septic or sewer emergency no matter how large or small. Our prompt, courteous and professional service teams tackle every job knowing that your satisfaction is our number one priority. From new septic and sewer systems to upgrading to repair and maintenance of older systems, we have over fifty years of well documented experience in being the most timely and most cost effective septic and sewer service around.

"This company came to service my septic tank and did not pump out the waste, only the water. This week my sewer line backed up and they refused to even come look without charging us money. I called Roto Rooter, and for free the looked at the tank and it was filled with years worth of sludge. Again we called and the company would take no responsibility for what they had done. Roto Rooter pumped the tanks and took out 800 gallons and 1200 gallons, as we have 2 tanks. I am so discouraged that a company would act this way and cause my family hardship. How can you refuse to even check the validity of our statements? I would NEVER recommend them and they should be ashamed of themselves."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.

To locate an underground downspout, you should start by identifying where the above ground gutter drains. Look for an entry point, such as a pipe or elbow leading into the ground. Follow the surface path for signs like depressions, landscaping disruptions, or wet areas after rain. You can use a metal detector or plumber’s snake to trace the pipe underground. For deeper pipes, a professional locator tool or camera inspection may be necessary. Visual markers or utility maps can also guide the search.

No, you typically cannot use metal detectors to find your sewer line. Most sewer lines are made of non-metallic materials such as PVC, clay, or cast iron, which are not detectable by standard metal detectors. Metal detectors are designed to locate metallic objects, so they won't be effective for identifying the path of a non-metallic sewer line. To locate your sewer line accurately, it's best to use other methods.

Trenches are 12 to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, the right depth for your trench will depend on the nature of your project. For example, if you’re digging a trench as part of a French drain installation, it should be 18 inches deep. An excavation professional can explain how deep your trench should be.

After you successfully remove your boulder, you have a few options for what to do to get rid of it. You can rent a dumpster if your yard has many boulders or if you’re planning a larger project. You can even save the boulder and reuse it elsewhere on your property to save on landscaping costs. A few ideas include using the boulder as a natural, abstract statue, breaking it into smaller pieces to line your garden bed, or offering it to a landscaping company that could reuse it for another project.
