Plumbing Built Around North Hills Homes
The North Hills filled in fast after World War II. Street after street of split-levels, ranches and two-stories went up across Ross, McCandless, Shaler and Hampton, and many still have original drain lines and basements that were never meant to stay dry forever.
We've served North Hills families for 40+ years and over 150 customers in this area. Our plumbers explain what's going on in plain terms and give you the price before any work starts.
The Three Calls We Get Most From the North Hills
Sump Pumps
Split-levels and basement garages sit low on the lot, and North Hills clay soil holds water. When a sump pump quits in a storm, the lowest room floods first. We install and replace pumps, add battery backups and check the discharge line.
Frozen Pipe Repair
Pipes that run through garages, crawlspaces and outside walls freeze first in a January cold snap. We thaw them safely, repair the split, and show you how to keep it from happening again.
Gas Water Heater Installation
Most North Hills homes heat water with gas. When your tank starts leaking, rumbling or running out early, we install a properly sized and vented replacement and haul the old one away.
Water in the basement or no hot water? North Hills help is one call away.
Same $79 dispatch fee in every town we serve with a smile!
What Goes Wrong in North Hills Homes
Sump pumps that fail mid-storm
Pumps tend to fail during the storm itself, when the power flickers or the float sticks. A pump older than 7 to 10 years, or one without a battery backup, is worth replacing before spring.
Pipes in garages and outside walls
Split-level layouts often run supply lines through a garage ceiling or an exterior wall. Those are the first to freeze. Insulation, heat cable or rerouting a short run can end the problem for good.
Dye tests before you sell
Many North Hills municipalities require a dye test before a home changes hands, to prove downspouts and sump pumps aren't tied into the sanitary sewer. If yours fails, we reroute the connection so your closing stays on schedule.

North Hills Plumbing FAQ
Which North Hills communities do you serve?
We serve homes and businesses across the North Hills, including Ross, McCandless, Shaler, Hampton and West View. If you're not sure we cover your street, call (412) 787-8299 and ask.
How long should a sump pump last?
Most last about 7 to 10 years, less if they run constantly. If yours is older than that, runs often, or has no battery backup, replacing it before storm season costs far less than cleaning up a flooded basement.
Do I need a dye test to sell my North Hills home?
Many North Hills municipalities require one. Check with your borough or township office early in the sale. If the test finds a downspout or sump pump tied into the sanitary sewer, we can reroute it before closing.
Is there an extra charge to come out to the North Hills?
No. Every call starts with the same $79 dispatch fee, and if you go ahead with the work, that $79 is applied to the job.
