Water & Drain System Repair / Replacement for Homes in Schenectady, NY Area

Do I Need Water & Drain Repair or Replacement?

Many of us live in older homes with cast iron, galvanized steel, and copper drain lines. Over the past 50+ years those drain lines have become damaged from all of the grease, soap, food, hair, and drain cleaning products. If you are experiencing slow drains, stopped drains or leaking drains, All Star Plumbing is able to cut out and remove the bad drains and replace them with new PVC pipe and fittings. When we are finished, your drains will be flowing like a dream.

As with old drain lines, in many cases a water system that has aged beyond its expected lifetime would benefit from an update. Today’s residential water systems are comprised of PEX pipe and fittings. We now have the ability to restore your system to its original leak-free state without the use of solder containing traces of lead. PEX piping is less expensive than copper and much less susceptible to freezing and bursting. Along with new hot and cold-water piping, All Star Plumbing will install the latest in isolation valves as well - so say goodbye to stuck, hard to turn valves because with ours, it’s a simple 90-degree turn of a lever.

Our skilled technicians are not only able to repair or replace your water and drain systems but can install your new faucets, swap out toilets, vanities, sink tops, drop-in sinks, stainless steel kitchen sinks, pedestal sinks, laundry sinks and more.
