The call we get most in Montclair State University is pitted galvanized pipe on older homes.

We carry the common parts on the truck for a single-visit fix.

Montclair State University sits in New Jersey's humid subtropical region — a humid subtropical climate — long, hot, muggy summers, mild winters, heavy thunderstorms, and high year-round humidity. That's hard on a home's plumbing: high year-round humidity that sweats and corrodes copper pipe and summer heat and moisture that strain water heaters all accelerate wear on pipes, fittings, and water heaters, so the failures we see most here are pitted galvanized pipe on older homes and sewer backups after heavy thunderstorms. We spec pipe, fittings, and fixtures for local conditions, not a generic catalog spec.

Our Montclair State University trucks carry parts for Rheem, Bradford White, A.O.

When the pipe is old galvanized steel throughout, we'll walk you through why repiping pays off long term.
