Nationwide Plumbers is a NYC Licensed Master Plumber (License #2023), in business since 1984, with 24/7 emergency dispatch to Rossville. We repair and replace water heaters and boilers, clear drains and sewer lines, install ejector pumps and handle gas work. Call 718-748-2727.
Rossville lies on Staten Island's West Shore along the Arthur Kill, with Arthur Kill Road as its main route. It is one of the island's historic areas, home to the Sandy Ground community founded in the 1800s, and the shoreline is known for the old ship graveyard in the Arthur Kill. Much of the housing today is newer: detached homes and townhouse developments built over the last few decades, alongside a few older houses.
In the newer homes and townhouses, the common calls are water heaters reaching the end of their first life, drain clogs, ejector pumps in lower levels and questions about shared lines in attached developments. Older homes on Arthur Kill Road can have much older piping and longer sewer runs. We handle both, start every job with a written estimate and are available 24/7.

Common plumbing issues in Rossville
First-generation water heaters
Many Rossville homes and townhouses were built around the same time, so a lot of original water heaters are now at or past the end of their expected life. A leak from the bottom of the tank, rust in the hot water or a heater that cannot keep up are the usual signs. We replace them with a free estimate and handle venting and gas or electric connections.
Leaks in finished ceilings
In townhouses with living space on every level, a leak from a shower valve, toilet seal or supply line shows up as a stain on the ceiling below. Finding the source without opening large areas takes some care. We use leak detection to pinpoint it and make a small, clean opening for the repair.
Shared lines in attached developments
Some attached homes connect to a common sewer or water line before it reaches the street. A clog or break in the shared section can affect several units, and the association's rules determine who pays. We camera the line, find the problem and give a written report and video you can share with neighbors or the board.
Older homes on Arthur Kill Road
A few older houses along the main road still have galvanized supply lines, aging cast iron drains and long laterals. We repair and replace these systems in stages when needed, starting with whatever is failing first, and give written estimates for each part of the work so there are no surprises.

Plumbing in Rossville: FAQ
How old is my water heater?
The serial number on the label usually includes the manufacture date. Many tank heaters last around 8 to 12 years. If yours is in that range and showing rust or moisture at the base, plan a replacement before it fails. We give free estimates.
There is a water stain on my ceiling under the bathroom. What should I do?
Stop using that bathroom if you can and call us. The stain usually comes from a toilet seal, tub or shower drain, or supply line. We find the source and repair it with as small an opening as possible.
Do you work with townhouse associations?
Yes. We can provide certificates of insurance, written reports and estimates the board can review. For recurring issues in shared lines, we can set up scheduled sewer cleaning and keep a record of each visit for the association.
