Emergency Plumbing Challenges Unique to Central Yonkers & McLean Avenue Area (10705)

Pro Boyz Plumbing Office - 381b McLean Ave, Yonkers, NY 10705.jpg

Looking for a plumber in Central Yonkers or the McLean Avenue area? You're in our backyard. Pro Boyz Plumbing is based right here in 10705 at 381b McLean Avenue. We've been serving our neighbors since 2008 - fixing plumbing problems in the same streets where we live and work.

​

Central Yonkers is a working neighborhood with a real mix of housing - single-family homes, two-family houses, small apartment buildings, and everything in between. This diversity creates diverse plumbing issues:

​

Mix of Old and Older - Most homes in 10705 were built between 1920 and 1960. You've got original plumbing in many houses - cast iron drains, galvanized supply pipes, old sewer connections. Some homes have been updated, others are 100% original. We work on both.

​

Multi-Family Properties - Central Yonkers has alot of two-family and three-family houses. Shared plumbing means when one unit has a problem, it often affects others. Main line backups, water heater issues, and boiler failures impact everyone in the building.

​

DIY Repairs from Previous Owners - We see alot of creative plumbing in 10705. Previous homeowners or landlords who tried to fix things themselves without permits or proper knowledge. Leaking connections, code violations, and shortcuts that eventually fail. We fix these problems weekly.

​

Proximity to Saw Mill River - Parts of Central Yonkers near the Saw Mill River deal with higher water tables and occasional flooding. Sump pumps are critical, and sewer lines can be affected during heavy rains.

​

Mixed Use Areas - McLean Avenue and surrounding streets have commercial properties mixed with residential. Restaurants, small businesses, and homes all on the same block create interesting plumbing scenarios.

Common Plumbing Problems in Central Yonkers & McLean Avenue Area (10705)

Main Sewer Line Backups

The number one emergency we get in Central Yonkers is sewage backing up into basements or first-floor bathrooms. Old clay sewer pipes crack, tree roots infiltrate, and years of buildup create blockages. When multiple toilets in your house back up at once, it's the main line. We use sewer cameras to find the problem and hydro jetting to clear it.

Old Galvanized Pipes

If your house still has original galvanized supply pipes, you've probably noticed weak water pressure, rust-colored water, and leaks springing up randomly. These pipes corrode from the inside and eventually need replacement. We replace old galvanized with modern PEX or copper, restoring proper water pressure and clean water.

Water Heater Failures

Most houses in 10705 have 40-gallon tank water heaters in the basement. They last 8-12 years before they start leaking or stop heating. We replace water heaters constantly in this neighborhood. When yours fails on Sunday morning, we respond same-day.

Frozen Pipes Every Winter

Houses in Central Yonkers with poor insulation, pipes in exterior walls, or unheated additions get frozen pipes when temperatures drop. We thaw frozen pipes safely before they burst. If they've already burst, we're there fast to shut off water and repair the damage.

Boiler and Heating Issues

Many homes in 10705 have steam or hot water boilers for heat. When your boiler fails in January, you need emergency service. We repair boilers, replace circulating pumps, fix zone valves, and address radiator leaks.

Toilet and Drain Clogs

This is bread-and-butter plumbing. Toilets that won't flush, kitchen drains that back up, bathroom sinks that run slow. We unclog drains and fix toilets every single day in Central Yonkers. Most of the time it's a quick fix.
