"The S&S team did a great job updating the plumbing in my laundry closet. Our original plumbing was corroding and coming out the floor in the closet, taking up space that didn't allow us to fit a washer all the way inside. The team was able to rip out the old plumbing, install new piping behind the wall and a recessed coupling box in the wall. The price was very reasonable compared to 3 other quotes I did, I would use them again for future work. Thank You!"

"Local Plumbing & Heating went above and beyond! They did a solid job and they stand behind their work to this day. If I ever have the slightest issue, they’re here right away to check and fix it. Plumbers I’ve had in the past seem to disappear after the work is done. Local Plumbing & Heating are like family! I’d recommend them to anyone looking to not get ripped off and who appreciate thorough, thoughtful and professional expertise."

"A really good experience. Our bathroom faucet was not working. We contacted many plumbers who had a long wait period. Petros called back right away and had me take photos of the faucet. He said that instread of calling him in for a simple repair, he could walk me through doing it myself! Amazing! We will certainly be using P Floros for all future plumbing needs."

"This was the second time we used H L Bowman for our plumbing needs and we have been impressed both times. Their plumbers are prompt, courteous, and friendly, in addition to being great at their craft. For this visit, I had a leak under a kitchen sink and did not realize that I needed to have the entire faucet replaced. The plumber recommended the closest plumbing supply store and waited while I selected the one I wanted. He efficiently did the replacement. Very happy with H L Bowman and would highly recommend them."

FAQs for plumbing projects in Harvard Square, MA

Schedule a plumbing inspection every one to two years to ensure your system is in good working order. Regular inspections can help you catch minor issues before they become costly problems, like major water damage repairs. You should also consider a plumbing inspection when buying or selling a home or if you notice signs of a plumbing issue. Staying proactive with maintenance can save you money and stress in the long run.

A plumbing inspection for a standard one-story to two-story home takes between two and three hours. For larger residences, historic homes, or rental complexes, a complete inspection requires a full-day commitment of eight hours. However, this does not account for any necessary repairs that your plumber might find, so it’s best to set aside additional time during the inspection in case an unexpected repair comes up.

When built with quality materials, your plumbing system endures for decades. CPVC, brass, iron, and steel provide reliable service for 50 to 70 years, while copper extends durability up to 100 years, and PEX maintains performance for 80 to 100 years. Maintaining this system with regular inspections and prompt repairs guarantees long-term efficiency.

You should repipe your home when your plumbing exceeds its expected lifespan or uses hazardous materials like lead, polybutylene, or galvanized steel. Persistent leaks, corrosion, and compromised water quality signal that your existing piping no longer meets safety standards. Repiping eliminates potential health risks and prevents extensive water damage.
