Plumber in Connecticut Farms, Union Township, NJ
Connecticut Farms is the oldest name in Union Township, and we serve the homes and properties around it with the same practical plumbing help.
From Early Settlement To Today
Connecticut Farms takes its name from early settlers who came from Connecticut, and the township's history traces back to a settlement here in 1667. Local records place a Presbyterian church in the area dating to 1730, and the Battle of Connecticut Farms was fought here on June 6, 1780. The name is so tied to the township that residents proposed renaming Union after it in 1946.
Today the Census recognizes Connecticut Farms as a small place within Union Township, about 545 residents in the 2020 count. It uses ZIP 07083 and is bounded roughly by Elmwood and Stuyvesant Avenues to the north, Rosemont Avenue, Bond Drive and Burke Parkway to the east, the Garden State Parkway to the south, and Pennsylvania Avenue to the west. Route 22 crosses its southern part.
Plumbing HereHistoric Name, Ordinary Questions
A historic name does not tell us what is inside any wall. We never assume that a home near Connecticut Farms has old pipes just because the area is old, since homes are built, renovated and repiped at different times. What helps is checking the actual materials, and we can do that during a visit.
Homeowners here ask us about the same things as elsewhere in Union. Sewer line backups, tank water heaters nearing the end of their service life, and worn shutoff valves are all routine reasons to call. Because the neighborhood sits close to Route 22 and the Parkway, getting a technician to the door is usually straightforward from our Union base.
Know Your Own PipesSimple Checks Before A Repair
Look at the pipe where it enters your home near the water meter or main shutoff. Copper is reddish brown, galvanized steel is gray and often rusty at fittings, and plastic piping is usually white, cream or blue. Knowing what you have helps us plan the repair and bring the right fittings.
If you are planning a remodel, ask for a plumbing check before closing up walls. It is far cheaper to correct a questionable valve or supply line while the area is open.
