What we do
The work, and what it actually involves
The five calls we get most. Every one has a page that says what the job is rather than a paragraph of adjectives — and the other three are on the services page.
Emergencies
Burst pipes, no heat and water where it should not be — the phone is answered at night and at weekends.
Read moreWater heaters
No hot water, or a tank that has started leaking. Repaired the same visit where it can be, replaced properly where it cannot.
Read moreBoilers
Diagnosis, repair and replacement for the boilers that heat most of the older housing stock around here.
Read moreDrains & leaks
Sink, tub, shower and toilet drains cleared, and hidden leaks found before they become a ceiling repair.
Read moreKitchens & baths
Faucets, sinks, tubs, toilets and disposals — fitted properly, with the parts behind them brought up to scratch.
Read morePipe & repiping
From a single pinhole to replacing the failing galvanised that a lot of older homes here are still running on.

Who you are calling
A family business, passed down
De Rosa Bros is third-generation and family-run — plumbing passed down from father to son, and now a business run by a family rather than a call centre with a van fleet.
Practically, that means the person who quotes the job is the person who does it, and the person who answers the phone knows what happened on your last visit. It also means we would rather tell you a water heater has years left in it than sell you one you do not need — there is no commission structure here to argue with.
Customers reach Brian directly. One of the reviews on this page describes him working a problem out over text messages, from photos, late at night. That is genuinely how it goes.

“Very responsive both with initial contact and requests for additional information. Came out very shortly after engagement and was able to tackle the initial project and some additional things we needed work on. Very professional team that was able to get some more advanced repairs done without half as much work needed as quoted by other plumbers. A bit on the pricier side but worth the expense.”
“They were quick to schedule with, and even quicker to repair our leak! Would highly recommend them to do any of your HVAC or plumbing work!”
“Amazing guys 8pm on a Friday night I lost my heat, I called Brian and he said someone would be by within an hour. Less than 40 minutes later a young man Bryant came by, took a look and gave me a more than fair price. Had it back up super quick, great customer service, great response time, very thorough overall great people and will definitely be calling if anything else ever happens.”
“Brian walked me through the whole process over texts, highlighting the pictures I was sending him to point out the things. He helped me diagnose and resolve the problem within an hour and was very responsive with his replies, even though it was late at night. Because of generous help, I was able to get heat in my unit.”
