Chase, Baltimore County
Sump pumps, water and sewer lines in wet ground, drains and water heaters for homes between the Gunpowder River, Middle River and the Chesapeake Bay.
Plumbing in Chase
Chase is a waterfront community in eastern Baltimore County, set between the Gunpowder River, Middle River and the Chesapeake Bay along Eastern Avenue (MD 150). Many homes sit close to creeks and shoreline, and that shapes the plumbing work they need.
Wet ground is hard on buried pipe. Water and sewer lines can shift, corrode or crack over time, and a basement or crawl space near the water needs a sump pump that works in a storm. We repair and replace those lines and keep pumps ready for heavy rain.
Homes here also see heavy use in summer, with family visiting and outdoor showers and spigots running. Fixtures and water heaters work harder than usual. We install, repair and replace all of it, and our White Marsh shop is a short drive away.

Common Chase problems
A sump pump that has not run in months can fail the first time it really matters. Testing and replacing worn pumps before storm season prevents a flooded basement.
Older water lines buried in damp ground can corrode and start leaking underground. A soggy patch of lawn or a pressure drop is often the first clue.
Hose bibs and outdoor showers used all summer can split when they freeze. We replace them and add frost-free spigots where they make sense.
More people in the house means more strain on water heaters, toilets and drains. We fix the weak spots before the next busy weekend.

Yes. We cover Chase and the waterfront communities around it, including Bengies, Bowleys Quarters and the homes near Dundee Creek and Saltpeter Creek. Call with your address and what is going on, and we will tell you when we can get there and what to expect.
Common signs are a wet or unusually green patch in the yard along the line, a drop in water pressure, or a water bill that jumps without a change in use. We check the meter with everything off, test the line, and find where the leak is before recommending a repair or a replacement.
Before storm season and after any long dry spell are good times. Pour water into the pit until the float lifts and make sure the pump starts, empties the pit and shuts off. If it hums, struggles or does not start, call us before the next heavy rain, not during it.
Yes. We replace the damaged spigot and the section of pipe behind it if that froze too, and we can install a frost-free hose bib that shuts off inside the wall where it stays warmer. We also check for leaks inside the wall, since a split spigot often leaks where you cannot see it.
