Local problems
Common plumbing problems in Dover homes
Dover Township has grown fast, so many homes here are newer. Newer homes still wear out parts over time. These are the problems we see most.
Water heaters reaching 10+ years
Homes built in the 2000s now have aging water heaters. Our water heater repair service repairs or replaces them.
Water pressure problems
Pressure too high or too low, or a failing pressure valve. Our water line repair service finds the cause.
Supply line and fixture leaks
Plastic supply lines and builder-grade faucets wear out over time. We replace them before they flood the floor.
Well and septic lines
Rural parts of Dover Township use wells and septic. We fix well lines, low pressure and septic line backups.
Frozen outdoor faucets
Hoses left on in fall split outdoor faucets inside the wall. We repair them and install frost-free faucets.

My Dover home is fairly new. Why do I have plumbing problems?
Newer homes still have parts that wear out. Water heaters often need work after about 10 years, sump pumps and their float switches fail, and supply lines and fixtures wear over time. Hard water speeds up much of this wear.
Do you work on homes with wells in Dover Township?
Yes. Some homes in the more rural parts of Dover Township use private wells and septic systems. We fix well water lines, low pressure, septic lines and the plumbing inside these homes.
Should I add a battery backup sump pump in Dover?
If your basement is finished or has ever taken on water, a battery backup is worth it. Heavy storms often knock out power, and that is when your main pump needs to run. A backup keeps pumping until the power comes back.
Why does my water pressure change in my Dover home?
On city water, a failing pressure-reducing valve can make pressure jump or drop. On a well, a worn pressure switch or a waterlogged pressure tank is the usual cause. We test the system and replace the part that failed.

Yes. York Plumbing Pros is open 24/7. Call (717) 750-0749 any time for burst pipes, flooded basements, no hot water or sewer backups in Dover.
