"Paul did a great job, as usual. I had an outdoor water faucet that's been steadily losing water pressure, to the point that it was mostly unusable. The problem was a clogged galvanized section of pipe, which he replaced with proper copper piping. He also found a small leak that I didn't even know about in the basement pipes. He replaced a crazy looking shower arm/head with something that now looks like it was installed by a professional. He checked the bathroom and kitchen sinks for any leaks and replaced a jiggling handle on a toilet that was causing it to run after flushing. If you're looking for a great plumber, look no further. Paul is honest, has very reasonable prices, he's very responsive, and he's truly a pleasure to deal with."

"We needed a main line repair/partial replacement that involved digging in our front yard. They showed up early, completed the job quickly, and cleaned up well. They even replanted our shrubs when they were finished. We received about 6 quotes. We chose AME because Mark was very kind and seemed honest. They also ended up having the best price for us. Nicole in the office was great as well. Thank you!"

"It went well. The job was performed thoroughly. I have great confidence in Mike D. From what I observed, he and the young man who accompanied him to help, work well together. They explained what they were doing. They noticed a slow leak in a valve on the hot water tank which they replaced. I have a service contract with them for both appliances."

"I was very impressed with how quickly the technician identified the problem and restored operation of our water heater. We then discussed how to proceed given the age of the device. He explained several installation alternatives to my wife and I . We discussed the choices and selected one that satisfied our needs. As previously stated, the representative was able to restart the existing water heater so we have hot water now, but we chose to replace it due to its age. We then scheduled the replacement after choosing one of the alternatives. In summary, we were very satisfied with the service."

"I needed to have the hot and cold shutoff valves replaced in the laundry area, Two other plumbing companies quoted me prices higher and said the wall had to be cut. Chris from A.J. Perry arrived and said he might be able to replace the valves without cutting the wall. He did, in fact, replace the valves without cutting and wall. Chris was the nicest service person I dealt with in a very long time."

FAQs for water main install, replace or repair projects in Howell, NJ

If you notice puddles or standing water in your yard, a sudden drop in water pressure, cracks forming in your foundation, frequent clogs in your plumbing fixtures, or water that looks or smells unusual, you might have a leak in your main water line. These signs mean it's time to call a professional to evaluate the issue and prevent further damage.

A professional water main inspection is a comprehensive evaluation performed by a licensed plumber who checks every section of your plumbing system. The inspection costs $165 and uses advanced diagnostic techniques to identify hidden leaks or wear. This service clarifies the exact condition of your water main, enabling precise repairs that prevent future damage and ensure the overall health of your plumbing system.

Protect your water main by scheduling a cleaning and inspection every two to five years. The average cost of a sewer line cleaning is $400. It’s also important to never dig in your yard without first calling the dig line (811) to ensure you don't accidentally hit the water or sewer lines. Watch for soil erosion, low water pressure, or wet spots in your yard, and take immediate action if you suspect a leak. Remember, the longer you leave it, the worse the problem gets and the more costly it is to fix.

When properly maintained, your water main is engineered to remain functional for 50 years or longer. A durable water service in excellent condition should consistently perform without major issues for half a century. In contrast, metal pipes exposed to acidic soil corrode faster, whereas modern plastic pipes resist corrosion and function for decades beyond metal alternatives. Regular maintenance and inspections are essential for confirming your system’s longevity.

No, homeowners insurance does not cover the cost to repair a water main. Insurers fund only sudden, unforeseen events like a burst pipe and exclude gradual issues or normal wear and tear. Damage resulting from leaks, such as mold remediation or property claims, is not covered. It is essential to contact your insurance provider immediately to confirm your policy’s details and any potential adjustments needed.
