Your local Ditmars-Steinway plumber
Ditmars-Steinway sits just north of our shop, so response times are short. We serve the two-family brick homes on the numbered streets above Astoria Boulevard as well as the co-ops and small apartment buildings along Ditmars Boulevard and 23rd Avenue.
Common calls include kitchen-line clogs in older two-family houses, basement backups after heavy rain, and steam radiators that will not heat. Whatever the problem, you'll get a flat, written price before we start — and a technician who knows the building types in Ditmars-Steinway.
Ditmars-Steinway calls are most often for drain and main-line clogs, water heater repair and steam boiler service. Learn more about our local team.

Ditmars-Steinway plumbing FAQ
My basement floods when it rains hard — what can you do?
We camera the house drain, clear roots and debris, and can recommend a backwater valve where the layout allows.

Yes — venting, traps, banging pipes and radiators that stay cold are routine work for us.
