When a bathroom renovation needs the plumbing roughed in correctly, or a new appliance requires a water line run before it goes in, the call happens before the work starts, not after something goes wrong. That is where a lot of the calls from Hollis begin: a homeowner planning a project, a landlord prepping a rental between tenants, a property manager scheduling work before a season turns. We handle that kind of planned work as readily as we handle the urgent call that comes in on a Sunday evening. Working here means getting your plumbing right the first visit.
Hollis is a town of older homes on basements, additions built over the years, and supply lines that have been in the ground a long time. That history shapes the work. A renovation that opens a wall often finds pipe that is due for replacement. A new water heater going into an older mechanical room may need supply connections that were not sized for the current demand. We scope all of it on the call, confirm the price before anything is scheduled, and carry the job through from first assessment to final test. We take calls from Hollis every day from 7:30 AM to 11:00 PM.
The price on a plumbing job is shaped by what the problem turns out to be and what has to come apart to reach it. A slow drain that clears with a cable is a different scope from one that needs the line opened to find a collapsed section. A water heater swap where the connections are standard is a different job from one where the supply valves have not moved in decades and the venting needs work before the new unit goes in. Those are the things that move a quote, and we go through them on the call so you are not waiting for a number until someone shows up.
When you call, describe what is happening and where. We ask about the fixture, the symptom, the age of the system if you know it, and whether anyone has worked on that area before. From that conversation we give you a rate on the phone. The price covers what we discussed, and if the visit reveals something different from what was described, we explain what changed and confirm the updated scope before any additional work begins. You are not agreeing to an open-ended job.
A house that loses hot water entirely is an urgent situation. A house where the hot water runs out faster than it used to, or where the temperature fluctuates without explanation, points to something that needs diagnosis before it gets worse. We check the heating element, the thermostat, sediment buildup in the tank, and the condition of the supply connections. The answer is not always a replacement. Sometimes it is. We tell you which before anything is scheduled.
When a water heater reaches the end of its useful life, the replacement involves more than swapping the unit. The supply valves, the discharge line, the pressure relief valve, and the connections all get checked. In older Hollis homes the shutoff valves at the heater are sometimes the original fittings, and a shutoff valve replacement is part of the job rather than an afterthought. We handle tank and tankless units, and we walk through the options before recommending one over the other.
When every drain in the house slows down at the same time, or when a backup comes up in the lowest fixture on the property, the problem is in the main sewer line, not in an individual drain. Root intrusion, years of buildup, and offset joints are the common causes in this area. We scope the line, clear the blockage, and where the pipe condition calls for it, we repair or replace the affected section. Trenchless sewer repair is an option where access and pipe condition allow, which can mean less disruption to a yard than a full open cut.
A water stain on a ceiling or a floor that feels soft underfoot is often the first sign of a leak that has been running for a while. We use pressure testing and electronic detection to locate the source before opening anything up. The cause of a leak explained, not just the patch, is how we approach every hidden leak job. Once we know where it is and why it happened, the repair targets the actual failure rather than the nearest accessible section.
A new appliance that runs on gas needs a properly run supply line before it goes in. An existing gas line that is undersized, corroded, or routed in a way that does not meet current code needs attention before it becomes a safety issue. We handle gas line installation and repair on the plumbing side: the line from the supply to the appliance connection. We tell you if a permit is needed. We explain repair or replace. You make the choice.
A bathroom addition or a full shower replacement involves supply lines, drain connections, and fixture installation that all have to work together before the walls go back up. In a home where the existing drain lines are older cast iron or ABS, the new connections need to be made correctly the first time. We scope shower and bath installation as part of a renovation or as a standalone job, and we confirm what the existing rough-in requires before the project starts.
Low water pressure in a single fixture usually points to that fixture: a clogged aerator, a partially closed shutoff valve under the sink, or a failing cartridge inside the faucet. Those are straightforward to diagnose and to fix. When pressure is low throughout the whole property, the cause is further upstream.
A failing pressure reducing valve is one of the more common culprits in homes that have one. A partially closed main shutoff, a corroded section of supply pipe that has narrowed internally, or a water main issue at the street connection can all reduce flow to every fixture at once. Backflow prevention devices and shutoff valves that have not been exercised in years can also restrict flow without failing completely. We trace the cause before recommending a fix, and we explain what we found before any work begins. Call and we'll get the water running right.
The visit begins with a look at what was described on the call. If the situation matches what was scoped, the work proceeds at the rate confirmed on the call. If the visit reveals something different, we go through what changed and what it means before continuing. No work beyond the agreed scope starts without a conversation first.
When the job is done, we leave your home clean and dry, and we walk through what was done before we leave. That includes what was repaired, what was replaced, and whether anything else we observed during the visit is worth keeping an eye on. Code-compliant plumbing is the standard on every job, and if a permit is required for the work, we confirm that on the call and handle what is needed before anything starts.
Have a sense of the symptom and where it is showing up. If you know the age of the water heater or the last time a drain was serviced, that helps. If you do not know, describe what you are seeing and we will ask the right questions from there.
We ask about:
From that conversation we give you a rate on the phone, confirm availability, and get the appointment on the calendar. The scope and the price are settled before anything is scheduled. Let us handle the plumbing and the permits.
We are available every day from 7:30 AM to 11:00 PM, including weekends and evenings. For homeowners in Hollis who cannot take time off during the week, evening and weekend availability means the work gets done without rearranging everything around it. For landlords and property managers, it means a plumbing problem in a rental does not have to wait until a weekday slot opens up.
When a problem will not keep, we take short-notice work and we accept urgent calls within our hours. We do not promise a specific arrival window, but prompt response, even for last-minute plumbing calls, is what we aim for on every urgent job. When you call, we scope the situation on the phone and confirm what is available so you know what to expect before anything is confirmed. We know schedules shift, so we keep booking flexible.
We serve Hollis and the communities around it throughout Hillsborough County. That includes Brookline, Nashua, and the towns across the state line: Pepperell, East Pepperell, and Dunstable. Residential and commercial work both fall within our service area. Whether the call comes from a single-family home in Hollis, a multi-unit property in Nashua, or a rental in Brookline, the process is the same. Call in, describe the situation, get a price on the phone, and get on the calendar.
For a full list of the work we cover, the services page has the detail on every job type, including drain cleaning, repiping, garbage disposal installation, and sewer line service. We'll make your plumbing sound again.
Yes. We handle the supply and drain rough-in, the fixture installation, and the final connections as part of a single job. If the project involves a permit, we confirm that on the call and handle what is needed before work begins. Scoping it as one job rather than coordinating separate visits for rough-in and finish work keeps the project moving and reduces the chance of a mismatch between what was roughed in and what the finished fixtures require.
Older homes in this area often have supply lines, drain connections, or shutoff valves that were installed decades ago and have not been touched since. When a repair opens a wall or requires shutting off a valve that has not moved in years, what looked like a single-scope job sometimes reveals additional work that is worth addressing at the same time. We go through what we find before recommending anything beyond the original scope, so you are making the decision with the full picture in front of you.
It depends on the scope of each item and how long the combined work would take. Call and describe everything on the list and we will work out whether it makes sense to handle it in one visit or whether some items are better scheduled separately.
The plumbing work itself is the same regardless of whether the supply comes from a municipal main or a private line. If the supply line runs from a private source, we work the line on the property side. Call and describe the setup and we will confirm what falls within scope.
There is no form to fill out and no waiting for a callback.
