Plumbing questions, answered for Garrison

Most Garrison homes were built around 1991, and 21% predate 1980 — so a lot of them still run their original supply pipe and water heaters, well past service life. We check pipe condition, water-heater age, and shut-off valves on every visit.

The call we get most in Garrison is sewer backups after heavy thunderstorms. Local housing is mostly suburban single-family homes on their own water service, alongside pockets of older in-town housing, so pitted galvanized pipe on older homes turns up often too. We carry the common parts on the truck for a single-visit fix.

Often just the failed section. If the surrounding pipe is still sound and the leak is isolated, a spot repair on your Garrison line is far cheaper than a full repipe. Our Baltimore County plumbers will tell you honestly when a Garrison repair beats a repipe — and never push a whole-home repipe you don't need. When the pipe is old galvanized steel throughout, we'll walk you through why repiping pays off long term.

For a burst pipe, shut off your main water valve first, then call us — but repairs on gas water heaters, sewer lines, and pressurized supply lines are best left to a licensed plumber.

First check the basics: on a gas unit, see whether the pilot or burner is lit; on an electric unit, check the breaker and the reset button on the thermostat.
