PLUMBING, INC.
S
A Plumber Who’s Like Family
ince 2004, fourth generation
master plumber Matt Mertz
has been fixing the drips
across the region.
A family-owned and operated
company that has grown to 42
employees, it’s one of the few
places where you can call for
help when you need it and will
probably get owner Matt, or his
wife, Lisa, on the line to help you
directly.
“We’re very customer
oriented and down to earth,” Lisa says. “If you call after hours for
emergency service, you’re either going to get Matt or myself
picking up the phone, and that’s something our customers
appreciate about us.”
As a North Hills company, and a North Hills resident, Matt
Mertz also has a strong devotion to the community that
supports him. He recently made a generous donation to the
North Hills wrestling team, and supports the community at large
in similar ways.
And while the company does appreciable business with
commercial plumbing, residential plumbing is still the daily
“bread and butter” for Matt Mertz Plumbing.
“We handle anything and everything, from a drippy faucet to
process essentially threads an
inner sleeve through a failing
sewer line. Once installed, the
sleeve is inflated and steam
cured, creating a hardened new
pipe within the old, broken
pipe. The work carries a lifetime
guarantee and avoids the need
for people to dig up their yards
or break through concrete
driveways and sidewalks — work
that can easily rack up expense
and create eyesores. What’s
more, many communities require that sewer lines be functioning
and intact upon selling a home, so these repairs can come at
inopportune times when time is of the essence.
“Not many companies can offer this type of work, and it
can reduce repair times immeasurably for the homeowner,”
Lisa notes. “Sewers can be 10 feet deep at times, and people
may need to dig up to 50 feet of line. They may need to get a
BEFORE
toilet replacement to a full utility line replacement and more,”
says Lisa. “We’re certified, insured and bonded. We have our own
equipment and do all jobs personally ourselves. You’re not going
to find subcontractors working on our jobs, which allows us to
keep our prices affordable for our customers.”
One of the more unique services offered by Matt Mertz
Plumbing is trenchless sewer replacement, which can save
homeowners thousands of dollars on sewer line work. The
AFTER
municipal bond and road workers to direct traffic if their line
goes under a roadway, which requires money and permits.
Trenchless replacement can do the same work in a few hours.”
What’s more, the liner is a complete, form-fitted solution.
There are no joints that can weaken over time and no places
for tree roots to infiltrate to cause future headaches. Once in
place, homeowners don’t have to worry about using special
drain cleaners or plumbing techniques — they can still use their
off-the shelf products to clear any clogs or buildup.
Matt Mertz Plumbing offers 24/7 emergency service, Saturday
and Sunday service, and is top notch when it comes to insurance
work, dealing directly with the insurance companies so you don’t
have to.
