Shickshinny's unique plumbing challenges

About 124 nights a year below freezing, when uninsulated crawlspace lines give out

The oldest blocks in town run plumbing decades older than the newer builds toward Nescopeck

First frost typically lands around October 19

Seasonal timing

Around 124 freezing nights a year put enough water in the ground that April, averaging 60 degrees, hands the whole load to whatever sits in the basement floor.

Common questions

How much does a plumber cost?

It depends on the job and how bad the problem is. That is why the first step is a phone call. Describe the problem and get your free estimate on the phone, with upfront pricing.

Will I talk to a real person?

Yes, you will.

Do I need to fill out a form?

No forms and no waiting on emailed quotes. One phone call is all it takes.

Can I get help at night or on a weekend?

We have plumbers ready to help families in the community 24/7, but moment-to-moment availability depends on demand. Call to find out how soon we can service your home.

Should I wait to call?

You already know that plumbing problems don't go away on their own. And waiting just increases the risks to your house. Plumbers see this hesitation all the time. Instead of regretting not calling earlier, just make that 2-minute call now and get your free estimate.

People also ask

Can the pipe around the footing be cleaned out?

Sometimes, depending on what is wrong with it. Silt can often be jetted out, while a crushed or collapsed section cannot. A scope tells you which case you have before anyone commits to breaking up floor.

Should I add a pit if the floor gets damp in spring?

Only if the basement shows it. A floor that stays wet for weeks after the melt says the footing tile is silted, crushed or absent, and a pit is one answer among several. Getting the diagnosis before the excavation is the part that saves money.

How far from the house does the sump discharge need to go?

Away from the foundation, and not into the sanitary sewer, which most municipalities here prohibit outright. A line that ends a few feet from the wall just feeds the same water back into the pit. Rules differ by borough, and a plumber working Nescopeck and Nanticoke will know the local one.

Who is responsible for the water line between the street and my house?

The homeowner normally owns the service line from the curb stop into the house, while the utility owns the main under the street. That split decides who pulls the permit and who pays when a leak surfaces in the yard. If you don't know where your curb stop sits, the water utility can usually come mark it.
