About the Local Business
Founded in 2011 by a fourth-generation plumber with deep roots in New York's trades, Big Apple Installations brings over a century of family expertise to Brooklyn. The owner's journey began at 15 in a plumbing supply house, leading to a formal apprenticeship and work on major city projects like the 9/11 Memorial and JFK's AirTrain. This extensive background in complex systems informs our practical, reliable approach to every job. As a licensed and insured NYC Master Plumber, we specialize in boiler and water heater services, gas line work, and essential city-mandated inspections like Local Law 152 and backflow testing. We're proud to be National Grid Valve Plus Installers, helping Brooklyn homeowners convert from oil to natural gas for greater efficiency. Our commitment is to straightforward, guaranteed work for the community we serve.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Local Law 152 inspection, and do I need one for my Brooklyn building?
Local Law 152 is a NYC requirement for most buildings to have their gas piping systems inspected by a licensed master plumber every four years. This is crucial for safety in our dense borough. As a licensed provider, Big Apple Installations performs these inspections, identifies any issues like leaks or corrosion, and provides the required certification to the Department of Buildings, helping you stay compliant and safe.
My apartment has some rooms that are always cold while others are too warm. Can you help with this uneven heating?
Absolutely. Uneven heating is a common challenge in Brooklyn's older buildings, often caused by imbalanced radiator systems, faulty zone valves, or sediment buildup in boilers. We start with a thorough plumbing and heating inspection to diagnose the root cause. Our solutions can include rebalancing your system, repairing or replacing valves, or performing a boiler flush to restore even heat distribution throughout your home.
You mention being a National Grid Valve Plus Installer. What does that mean for converting my oil boiler to gas?
As a Valve Plus Installer, we are certified by National Grid to handle the complete conversion process from oil to natural gas heating. This includes installing the necessary gas meter and piping to your appliance safely and to code. Converting can offer Brooklyn homeowners significant savings on fuel costs and increased efficiency. We manage the project from permit to completion, ensuring a smooth transition to a cleaner, modern heating system.
