Garfield is a compact city along the Passaic River with a dense grid of two-family homes, older frame houses and apartment buildings, plus a legacy of mill and industrial property. The housing is old enough that original cast iron drains, galvanized supply piping and steam or gravity heat are all still in service here, and much of our work involves bringing those systems up to date.

Garfield Plumbing & HVAC FAQs
How do I know if my home still has galvanized water pipe?
Galvanized pipe is dull gray steel and threaded at the fittings, not soldered like copper. If you have low pressure and discolored water at first draw, that is a strong sign. We can confirm in a few minutes on site.
Our basement flooded and the heater and boiler were underwater. Now what?
Submerged gas appliances should not be put back in service. Controls, gas valves and burners are not designed to be wet. We assess what can be salvaged and replace what cannot, and we can raise the new equipment where the layout allows.
Can you snake the main line for a three-family house?
Yes. We clear main lines and, for heavy buildup or grease in multi-family buildings, hydro jetting does a more thorough job than cabling alone.
