Historically, Nutley grew slowly as Newark developed. The first European settlers in the area, recorded in the minutes of a Newark town meeting in 1693, was a Dutch painter named Bastian Van Giesen. His house, which is popularly called the Vreeland Homestead, still stands today on Chestnut Street and is the location of the Nutley Women’s Club.

Your safety and satisfaction is our top priority, which is why we only work with licensed and well-trained contractors, so you can be sure you are in safe hands.

Roof Infiltration Repair

Water infiltration can happen for many reasons. It could be as a result of improper sealing finishes on the roof sheathing, the accumulation of snow, ventilation deficiencies, or insulation deficiencies. No matter the reason, the main priority should be repairing the cracked roof as quickly as possible. 

When cracked roofs are not attended to immediately, or are not properly repaired, it can cause a lot of damage to your building and personal belongings. So as soon as a leak is spotted, it’s best to contact a licensed plumbing company such as Eco Plumbing, Heating & Air Conditioning.

It’s easy to spot whether you have a roof infiltration issue. Just look out for the following signs: mold, stained plywood, ceiling stains, peeling paint, warped gypsum, cracks in the ceiling, water on the floor, deterioration in the quality of the roof covering, such as cracks or defects, marks on joists, and tarnished or compacted insulation.

The best way to avoid roof infiltration and ultimately save money is by making sure routine maintenance services and inspections are carried out regularly.

Although it’s more difficult to spot cracks and other defects during the colder seasons, our routine checkup services will make sure your home is functioning at its best during the holidays.

Our expert contractors have the experience, the tools, and the drive to ensure any roof infiltration issue is repaired, with a guarantee that you won’t be experiencing any further issues with your roof any time soon.

Broken Pipe Repair

It’s not always easy to detect a broken pipe. Sometimes the sound of dripping water will alert you, other times, the affected pipe on show. However, sometimes broken pipes go unnoticed and go on to cause a lot of damage. Broken pipes affect the overall performance of your homes’ plumbing system and can make life very uncomfortable (, especially in the kitchen and bathroom, where water is used the most.) Leaking water could consequently result in an unhealthy home environment because of the fungus and mold growth.

If broken pipes are not noticed or fixed in time, surrounding structural components of the home can become contaminated, while mold and fungus spores become airborne; a health hazard to all inhabitants. The cost of repair also increases as time goes on and the problem grows.

Besides health hazards, when broken pipes are not treated on time, floodwater seeps deep into the building’s walls and sometimes affects the electrical system, resulting in a fire hazard. We always prioritize our clients’ safety and comfort.

As useful as our plumbing systems are in our everyday lives, not attending to them on a regular basis can have dangerous consequences. Do not hesitate to book an appointment with our contractors if you have any concerns, we will be with you as soon as we can.

Client Reviews

Having offered our plumbing services to many people in Nutley, we are proud to say that we have received some glowing reviews. Here’s what just a few of our satisfied clients have said about our services:

“Excellent work! I had to call them after-hours at around 1 AM because our basement was flooding and all other services didn’t even pick up the call. Mark was on the phone. He seemed tired but managed to send one of his specialists within two hours. He found the leak and repaired it. He also fixed the sump pump to get the water out. I can’t thank them enough.”

Kimberley

“Excellent from start to finish. Called them because we had a leak upstairs. They worked around my schedule, arrived on time, fixed my issue quickly and efficiently. The Plumber was professional and very careful to leave my bathroom and hall (he had to lug heavy equipment upstairs) as clean and neat as possible. Their price was very fair for the work that was done. I would recommend them to anyone; good customer service is arduous to find in around town. It was refreshing to work with a customer-centric company.”

FAQ

What are the solutions for a cracked roof or roof infiltration in general?

• Snow and ice removal from the roof – this may be a little obvious, but removing the ice or snow is a must before a cracked roof can be attended to. The pressure of the snow most likely will have caused the crack to appear in the first place and so is best discarded.
• Change the roof sheathing – any attempted repair of the affected roof sheathing would not be the best solution to the problem, a replacement is usually best.

• Improve your building’s waterproofing – the better the quality of waterproofing, the less likely there will ever be any sort of infiltration.

• Re-evaluate the effectiveness of your drainage system – clogged drains can lead to flooding, odors, and leaks when not treated urgently.

How do I know if/when my pipes need repair?

If you see any of these signs, your pipes will most likely need to be repaired or replaced as soon as possible:

• Water Leaks – you may have noticed water leaks in some rooms of your house; small wet patches in the corner of your room or flooded areas in the basement or attic. These spots of water will only grow larger as broken pipes don’t ever go away with time, and ignoring them could lead to hundreds of gallons of water wasted every day.
• Low Water Pressure – low water pressure could be due to a faulty pipe installation and could eventually mean you will need an emergency pipe repair.

• Problem With Appliances – appliances like dishwashers or washing machines might not work as they should when your pipes have issues.

• High Utility Bills – a sudden increase in water bills could be as a result of broken pipes.
