Our plumbing installation expertise spans every aspect of residential and commercial plumbing systems, from complete home repiping projects to precision fixture installations. We specialize in water heater installation, offering both traditional tank systems and modern tankless water heaters that provide endless hot water while saving valuable space in Philadelphia’s often compact homes. Our certified technicians are experienced with gas, electric, and hybrid water heater installations, ensuring optimal placement and efficiency regardless of your property’s configuration.
Pipe installation and repiping represent core competencies of our Philadelphia operations. We work with all modern piping materials including copper, PEX, and PVC systems, selecting the optimal material based on your specific application, budget, and long-term performance goals. Our trenchless pipe installation techniques minimize disruption to your property’s landscaping and hardscaping, particularly important for Philadelphia’s closely-spaced urban properties where traditional excavation would be impractical.
Fixture installation services encompass everything from basic sink and toilet installations to luxury bathroom and kitchen upgrades featuring EPA WaterSense certified fixtures that reduce water consumption without sacrificing performance. We install garbage disposals, water filtration systems, and water softeners that address Montgomery County’s hard water challenges. Our team handles complex installations like sewage ejector pumps for basement bathrooms, sump pump systems for flood-prone areas, and backflow prevention devices that protect your water supply.
Gas line installation requires specialized expertise and licensing, which our certified technicians possess for safe installation of gas lines serving water heaters, boilers, and other gas appliances. We understand Philadelphia’s strict building codes and permit requirements, ensuring every installation meets or exceeds local regulatory standards. Our drain and sewer line installation services include modern materials and techniques that provide superior longevity and performance compared to older clay or cast iron systems common in Philadelphia’s historic neighborhoods.
Bathroom and kitchen plumbing installation projects receive particular attention to detail, as these spaces demand both functionality and aesthetic appeal. We coordinate installations with other trades to ensure seamless integration of plumbing with electrical, flooring, and cabinetry work. Our experience with Philadelphia’s historic homes means we understand how to install modern plumbing systems within existing structural constraints while maintaining architectural integrity.
After 13 years serving Montgomery County communities, we’ve built an unmatched reputation for installation excellence that other local service providers simply cannot match. While many area plumbers focus primarily on repairs and emergency calls, our specialized installation expertise sets us apart as Philadelphia’s premier plumbing installation specialists. Our technicians undergo continuous training on the latest installation techniques, materials, and technologies, ensuring your new plumbing systems incorporate the most advanced and efficient components available.
Unlike other providers in Philadelphia who may leave you waiting days or weeks for installation appointments, we offer flexible scheduling including same-day installation services for urgent needs and next-day installation when systems require immediate replacement. Our emergency response time of under 60 minutes means we can quickly assess installation requirements and often begin work immediately, particularly crucial when existing systems fail and require immediate replacement to prevent property damage.
Our upfront, transparent pricing eliminates the surprise fees and hidden charges that some local competitors use to inflate final bills. We provide detailed written estimates before beginning any installation work, so you know exactly what to expect financially. Many installation companies in the region use high-pressure sales tactics or push unnecessary upgrades, but our approach focuses on educating customers about their options and helping them make informed decisions that match their actual needs and budget.
National chain competitors often send technicians from outside the Philadelphia area who lack familiarity with local building codes, permit requirements, and the unique challenges of installing modern plumbing in historic properties. Our deep knowledge of neighborhoods around Broad Street, installations in homes near Fairmount Park, and experience with properties throughout Center City and surrounding areas means we understand exactly what each installation project requires for optimal performance and code compliance.
We’re fully licensed and insured, providing complete protection for your property during installation projects. Our commitment to quality workmanship includes comprehensive testing of all installations and follow-up service to ensure everything performs exactly as intended. Unlike some area providers who subcontract installation work to less experienced crews, our own trained technicians handle every aspect of your installation project from initial assessment through final testing and cleanup.
Jennifer from Queen Village contacted us last month when her 80-year-old cast iron sewer line finally collapsed, causing sewage backups throughout her basement. Previous contractors had quoted three weeks for traditional excavation and replacement, which would have destroyed her carefully maintained garden and required extensive restoration work. Our trenchless sewer line installation technique allowed us to replace her entire main line in just two days with minimal disruption to her property. “I couldn’t believe they could install a completely new sewer line without tearing up my whole yard,” Jennifer said. “The new system works perfectly, and you can barely tell any work was done. Their installation expertise saved me thousands in landscaping restoration costs.”
Robert, who manages several rental properties in the Graduate Hospital area, needed emergency water heater installation when his building’s aging system failed during a January cold snap, leaving eight units without hot water. Other local companies couldn’t schedule installation for over a week, but our team arrived within 45 minutes to assess the situation and had a new high-efficiency tankless system installed and operational by the next morning. “My tenants had hot water again in less than 24 hours,” Robert explained. “Central Plumbing’s fast installation service and professional work saved my business relationships and prevented a potential disaster.”
Maria from South Philadelphia called us for complete bathroom plumbing installation during her home renovation project. Her contractor had warned her that installing modern fixtures in her 1920s rowhome might be impossible without major structural modifications. Our installation specialists designed a custom solution that provided all the modern conveniences she wanted while working within her home’s existing framework. “They installed everything exactly where I wanted it without having to tear down walls or reroute major utilities,” Maria said. “Their knowledge of old Philadelphia homes and creative installation techniques made my dream bathroom possible within my budget.”

Complete bathroom plumbing installation for renovation projects generally takes 1-2 days, while whole-house repiping can require 3-5 days depending on the home’s size and accessibility.
Philadelphia’s historic homes often present unique installation challenges that can extend timelines, but Central Plumbing’s extensive experience with older properties helps us complete installations efficiently while respecting architectural integrity. We provide realistic timeline estimates during our free consultation and keep customers informed throughout the installation process.
Philadelphia requires permits for most major plumbing installations including water heater replacement, new fixture installations in remodeling projects, pipe replacement or rerouting, and any work involving gas lines or sewer connections. Simple fixture replacements in existing locations typically don’t require permits, but adding new plumbing fixtures or relocating existing ones usually does.
Central Plumbing handles all permit applications and inspections as part of our installation services, ensuring full compliance with Philadelphia’s building codes and Montgomery County regulations. Our deep knowledge of local permit requirements prevents delays and ensures your installation meets all safety and performance standards.
Absolutely, though historic home plumbing installation requires specialized expertise and creative solutions. Philadelphia’s older homes often have unique structural considerations, limited access for routing new pipes, and restrictions on exterior modifications that affect installation approaches. However, modern plumbing systems can definitely be integrated successfully.

We use specialized techniques like trenchless installation methods, flexible PEX piping systems, and compact fixture designs that provide modern performance while respecting historic character.
