Hubbard Plumbing has been serving Kings Park and the surrounding communities of Suffolk County since 1978. For nearly five decades, homeowners, landlords, and businesses across the area have called us when a pipe bursts, a drain backs up, a water heater fails, or a fixture needs replacing. We handle the full range of residential and commercial plumbing work, from routine repairs and installations to after-hours emergencies, and every job is performed by licensed plumbers who know what they are doing. We give you straight answers about your pipes and fixtures, no surprises.
Call today. Fixed tomorrow. Flowing for good.
We are one phone call from getting your plumbing right.
A properly plumbed home is a worry-free home, and that standard applies just as much to a commercial building or a rental property as it does to a single-family house. We cover the everyday plumbing work that keeps water moving where it should and stopped where it should not be. From a slow kitchen drain to a failed water heater to a shutoff valve that will not close, we handle it.
Slow drains and blocked sinks are among the most common calls we take. Kitchen lines collect grease and food buildup over time. Bathroom drains catch hair, soap residue, and everything else that goes down a tub or shower. We clear the blockage, assess the line, and where a clog is deep in the pipe, we use hydro jetting to flush it clean. If the problem turns out to be further down in the main line, we handle that too.
A leak behind a wall or under a sink can go unnoticed long enough to cause real damage. We locate the source, assess what the pipe needs, and repair or replace the affected section. We also respond to burst pipes as an emergency. Whether it is a slow drip that has been going on for weeks or a sudden break that needs attention right now, we get to the problem and fix it.
No hot water is one of those calls that cannot wait. We service and replace both tank-style and tankless water heaters. Common issues include sediment buildup, a failing heating element, a faulty thermostat on the unit, or a tank that has simply reached the end of its life. We assess the unit, explain your options, and get hot water restored. This is domestic hot water service only.
A running toilet wastes water and money. A cracked bowl or a broken fill valve needs to be addressed before it becomes a bigger problem. We handle toilet repairs and full replacements. On the faucet and fixture side, we fix drips, replace worn cartridges, and install new fixtures in kitchens and bathrooms. If you are renovating or upgrading, we handle the rough-in and finish work.
A jammed, humming, or completely dead disposal usually needs either a reset, a repair, or a replacement. We diagnose the problem on the spot and install a new unit when the old one is past saving. We carry units that fit standard sink configurations and get the job done in a single visit when possible.
Low water pressure throughout a house often points to a failing pressure regulator or a partially closed valve somewhere in the system. We diagnose the cause, replace the regulator if needed, and service or replace main shutoffs and fixture shutoffs that are corroded or no longer functioning. No pressure and no gimmicks, just sound, lasting plumbing.
One ring and we are on the way.
Staying ahead of plumbing problems keeps your home dry, but emergencies do not wait for business hours. We offer same-day and after-hours response for urgent plumbing situations in Kings Park and the surrounding area. A burst pipe, a major leak, a backed-up sewer line, or a water heater that quits on a cold January night all get the same fast attention.
Property managers and landlords call us regularly because they need a plumber who shows up when a tenant has no hot water or a drain is backing up into a unit. We understand the urgency that comes with managing occupied buildings. Commercial clients, including office buildings, restaurants, and retail spaces, get the same reliable response. When a plumbing problem threatens your business operations, we treat it as the emergency it is.
We are a locally owned operation, and our work travels by word of mouth here, so we earn it every visit.
Real plumbers. Real pricing. Real fast response.
We will take care of the pipes from here.
Kings Park and the older neighborhoods throughout Suffolk County present a specific set of plumbing challenges. Much of the housing stock dates back to the mid-twentieth century, and those homes carry aging galvanized, lead, and cast-iron pipe that was never meant to last this long. The water table on Long Island sits close to the surface in many areas, and seasonal storms, including nor'easters, put real pressure on basement drainage systems. We know this territory well because we have been working in it since 1978.
Galvanized steel supply lines corrode from the inside out. Over time, the rust and mineral buildup narrow the pipe, drop your water pressure, and eventually cause leaks at joints and fittings. Many mid-century Suffolk County homes still have these lines running through the walls. If you are seeing discolored water, recurring leaks in multiple spots, or weak pressure throughout the house, a whole-home repipe is often the most practical fix. Work is performed by licensed plumbers, and we walk you through the process before a single wall comes open.
Older clay and cast-iron sewer lines in Kings Park neighborhoods are vulnerable to root intrusion, corrosion, and sections that have settled and bellied over the decades. When a sewer line fails, it rarely gives much warning. We inspect the line, identify the problem, and replace what needs replacing. Where the terrain allows, we offer trenchless repair options that minimize disruption to your yard. Our work on the sewer line covers the pipe running from your house out to the street connection or to the inlet of your tank. That is our side of the line, and we handle it thoroughly.
Long Island's high water table and heavy seasonal rainfall make a functioning sump pump more than a convenience. It is a first line of defense against basement flooding. We install new sump pumps, replace failed float switches, service discharge lines, and respond when a pump quits during a storm. If your basement has taken on water or you want to make sure your drainage system is ready before the next nor'easter rolls in, call us to take a look.
We are one phone call from getting your plumbing right.
Property managers trust us to keep their buildings running, and we take that responsibility seriously. We work across the full range of property types in and around Kings Park: single-family homes, multi-unit apartment buildings, office buildings, restaurants, and retail spaces. Residential clients get the same level of attention whether it is a straightforward faucet replacement or a full bathroom renovation. Commercial clients get a plumber who understands that downtime costs money and that the work needs to be done right the first time.
We have built relationships with property managers and landlords across Suffolk County who need a reliable plumber they can call without having to explain the history of the building every time. We keep records, we show up on time, and we do the kind of plumbing work neighbors pass along by word of mouth.
One ring and we are on the way.
Customers want to know what a job is going to cost before they commit, and that is a reasonable expectation. We assess the work on-site, explain what we find, and give you a clear price before anything gets started. There are no invoices that look different from what you were told.
Plumbing repair costs vary depending on what the job involves, how accessible the pipe or fixture is, and what parts are needed. The only way to give you an accurate number is to look at the actual problem. Call for a quote at (631) 663-9789 and we will get you the information you need.
We do not believe in padding a quote or recommending work that is not necessary. Honest recommendations on repairs, never an upsell, is how we have kept customers coming back since 1978.
We stand behind the work we do. If a repair or installation we completed develops a problem related to our workmanship, call us at (631) 663-9789 and we will come back and make it right. We have been building our reputation on reliable work in this area since 1978, and we do not walk away from a job that is not right.
A sump pump that runs continuously, makes unusual noises, fails to activate during heavy rain, or has a float switch that is stuck or corroded is telling you it needs attention. In Kings Park and the surrounding neighborhoods, where the water table sits close to the surface in many areas, a pump failure during a nor'easter can mean a flooded basement fast. We service existing units and replace ones that are worn or undersized.
Common signs include consistently low water pressure throughout the house, discolored or rust-tinged water at multiple fixtures, recurring leaks at joints and fittings in different locations, or a home built in the mid-twentieth century that still has its original galvanized steel supply lines. We assess the lines and give you a clear picture of what replacement involves before any work begins.
If your main line backs up repeatedly even after professional cleaning, if multiple drains in the house are slow at the same time, or if you notice soft spots or unusually green patches in your yard over the sewer line, the pipe itself may be damaged. Root intrusion, pipe bellying, and corrosion in older clay or cast-iron lines are common causes in established Suffolk County neighborhoods. We can assess the line and explain what we find.
After completing a repair or installation, we run water through the affected lines, check all connections under pressure, and visually inspect the work area for any sign of dripping or seepage. We do not consider a job finished until we have confirmed the repair is holding and the area is dry.
A straightforward repair like a faucet replacement, a toilet swap, or a disposal installation usually takes one to two hours. Drain cleaning and leak detection visits vary depending on how deep the problem goes. Larger jobs like whole-home repiping or sewer line replacement are planned over multiple visits, and we will give you a realistic time estimate before scheduling begins.
Clear a path to the fixture, water heater, main shutoff, or problem area so the plumber can work without obstruction. If the work involves under-sink plumbing, empty the cabinet. For water heater or main line work, know where your shutoff is located. We will handle the rest.
Sewer line camera inspection allows us to see exactly what is happening inside the pipe, whether it is root intrusion, a crack, a belly in the line, or a blockage that keeps returning. We use camera inspection to assess lines before recommending repair or replacement so we are not guessing about what the pipe actually needs.
We explain what we found, why repair is not the right answer in this case, and what replacement involves in terms of scope, time, and cost. No work begins until you understand the situation and agree to the plan. For water heaters, we discuss tank versus tankless options where that choice is relevant to your home.
Inconsistent hot water, water that takes much longer than usual to heat, discolored or foul-smelling hot water, visible corrosion on the tank, or a unit that is more than ten to fifteen years old are all reasons to have the water heater assessed. We diagnose the issue on the first visit when possible and give you a straight answer on whether repair or replacement makes more sense.
Older pipes, especially galvanized steel or cast iron, can be brittle, corroded, or fused at the fittings, which makes accessing and repairing them more involved than working on modern pipe. If we discover during a repair that the surrounding pipe is in poor condition, we will tell you before doing additional work. We give you honest recommendations on repairs so you understand what you are dealing with.
Yes, and often the right time to do it is when we are already in the area for another repair. Shutoff valves that are corroded or partially seized cannot do their job in an emergency. Old braided supply lines under sinks and behind toilets are a common source of slow leaks. Replacing them while access is already open is straightforward and saves a separate service call later.
Hubbard Plumbing is ready to handle your next plumbing repair, installation, or emergency. We serve residential and commercial customers throughout Kings Park and the wider Suffolk County area with the same straightforward approach we have used for nearly five decades. Whether you need a drain cleared today or a complete repipe planned for next month, we are the local team to call.

How do I know if my water heater needs to be replaced or just repaired?
Age is the first thing we look at. Most tank water heaters last eight to twelve years. If yours is in that range and showing symptoms like inconsistent hot water, rumbling sounds, or rust-colored water from the hot tap, replacement often makes more financial sense than repair. We diagnose the unit on the first visit and give you a straight answer about which path is right for your situation, with no pressure either way.
What causes drains to back up, and how do you clear them?
Kitchen drains clog from grease and food buildup. Bathroom drains collect hair and soap residue. Main line backups are usually caused by accumulated debris, root intrusion, or a pipe that has shifted or cracked over time. We start with an assessment to locate the blockage, then use the right method for the job. For tough main line clogs, hydro jetting flushes the full interior of the pipe rather than just pushing a hole through the obstruction, which keeps the drain clear much longer.
How do you find a hidden leak without tearing up my walls?
We use detection methods that let us pinpoint where the leak is before we open anything up. That means we only access the area we actually need to, which limits the repair footprint and keeps your home in better shape. Signs that a hidden leak may be present include a water bill that has climbed without explanation, damp spots on walls or ceilings, or a musty smell in a room that should be dry. Call us and we will take a look.
Same-Day and Emergency Availability
Plumbing emergencies do not follow a schedule, and neither do we. We are available for same-day and after-hours service, including weekends, for Kings Park homes and businesses that cannot wait.
How do I know if my home needs to be repiped?
The clearest signs are low water pressure throughout the house, water that runs brown or orange when you first turn on a tap, and fittings that keep failing one after another. These are common symptoms in older Kings Park homes where the original galvanized steel supply lines have corroded from the inside out. Lead service lines are another concern in homes built before the mid-1980s. We assess the condition of your pipes and explain what we find before recommending anything.
What are the signs of a sewer or main line problem?
The most obvious sign is multiple drains backing up at the same time. A single slow drain is usually a localized clog. When the kitchen sink, bathroom sink, and tub are all sluggish or backing up together, the problem is likely in the main line. Other signs include gurgling sounds from drains, sewage odors near floor drains, or wet spots in the yard above where the sewer lateral runs. These warrant a call sooner rather than later.
What is the difference between a tank and a tankless water heater?
A tank water heater stores a set volume of hot water and keeps it ready. A tankless unit heats water on demand as it flows through the unit, so there is no storage tank and no standby heat loss. Tankless units tend to have a longer service life and can be a good fit for households with high hot water demand or limited space. The right choice depends on your usage patterns, your existing gas or electric setup, and your budget. We install and service both and can walk you through the tradeoffs.
Upfront Quotes With No Surprise Fees
We give every customer a clear estimate before work begins and we hold to it. No charges appear at the end of a job that were not discussed at the start.
What causes low water pressure throughout the house?
Low pressure that affects every fixture at once usually points to one of a few things: a pressure regulator that is failing, a shutoff valve that is not fully open, a supply line that has corroded and narrowed internally, or a leak somewhere in the system. In older homes with galvanized pipe, internal corrosion is a very common cause. We diagnose the source and explain what the fix involves before any work starts.
Do I need to be home when the plumber arrives?
Someone needs to be present to provide access and to review the estimate before we begin. If you manage a rental property and cannot be there yourself, an authorized adult at the property works fine. We will not start work without going over the scope and price with whoever is responsible for the job.
Experienced With Older and Newer Homes
We have been working on Long Island housing stock since 1978, which means galvanized lines, cast-iron stacks, aging sewer laterals, and mid-century construction hold no surprises for us.
How do estimates and pricing work?
We give you a clear estimate before any work begins and we stick to it. For straightforward repair and service calls, a description of the problem is usually enough to give you a starting range over the phone. For larger jobs like whole-home repiping or sewer line replacement, we assess the situation on-site before quoting, because the only way to give you a reliable number is to look at the actual problem. There are no charges added after the fact that were not discussed upfront.
When should I call a plumber instead of trying to fix it myself?
A basic drain snake or a faucet cartridge swap is within reach for a confident DIYer. But if the problem involves the main line, a water heater, supply line connections behind a wall, or anything that touches your sewer lateral, calling a licensed plumber is the right move. Mistakes on those systems can cause water damage, code violations, or a bigger repair bill down the road. When you are not sure, a quick call to describe the situation costs nothing and we can help you figure out what it actually needs.
What should I do if my sump pump fails during a storm?
If the pump is running but not moving water, check that the float switch is not stuck and that the discharge line is clear and not frozen. If the pump is not running at all, check the circuit breaker. If none of that resolves it, call us. A failed sump pump during a nor'easter can flood a basement quickly, and we take those calls seriously. Having the pump tested and serviced before storm season is the best way to avoid the situation entirely.
Call (631) 663-9789 and we will walk you through what the job involves, what it will cost, and when we can get there.
