Where we work near Union Square

Union Square sits where Broadway meets 14th Street, with apartment buildings on the streets around the park. From our shop on 1st Avenue it's a short trip northwest along 14th Street.

The streets around Union Square mix older apartment buildings, loft buildings and newer towers. That range means anything from original cast-iron drains and copper pipes to recent installations, sometimes within the same block.

Mixed building ages
Older and newer systems behave differently. We check what's behind the wall before recommending a fix.
Doorman and managed buildings
Many buildings here have rules for contractor access. Let your building know when we're coming.
Shared lines
In apartment buildings, some pipes serve several units. Work on those may need the building's involvement.
