Emergency Plumbing Services
Plumbing emergencies don't wait for convenient times. When you discover a burst pipe flooding your basement at 2 AM or your sewer line backs up on a holiday weekend, you need help fast. Our 24/7 emergency plumbing service ensures Castle Creek residents always have access to professional help when disaster strikes. We understand that every minute counts when water is pouring into your home, which is why we prioritize emergency calls and arrive equipped to handle whatever we find.

We also provide tankless water heater installation for homeowners looking to maximize energy efficiency and never run out of hot water. Our technicians can help you select the right size and type of water heater for your household's needs while explaining available energy rebates through NYSEG.
Drain Cleaning & Hydro Jetting
Slow drains are more than just annoying—they're often warning signs of bigger problems developing in your plumbing system. Our professional drain cleaning services can clear everything from simple clogs to stubborn blockages that have been building for years. For tougher jobs, we utilize hydro jetting services that blast away grease, scale, and tree roots without damaging your pipes. Whether it's a backed-up kitchen sink, a clogged shower drain, or issues with your laundry room drain, we have the tools and expertise to restore proper flow.
Sewer Line Services
Sewer line problems can be messy, expensive, and stressful, but catching them early makes all the difference. Our sewer line clearing and repair services address issues ranging from simple clogs to damaged pipes that need replacement. We use video camera inspections to diagnose the exact location and nature of sewer line problems, allowing us to recommend the most cost-effective solution for your situation.
Well Pump Services
Many Castle Creek homes rely on private well systems for their water supply. When your well pump fails, your entire household comes to a halt. Our well pump replacement and repair services feature quality Franklin and Amtrol equipment designed for reliable performance. We understand the unique considerations of well water systems and can troubleshoot everything from low water pressure to complete pump failure.
Fixture Installation & Repair
From leaky faucets to running toilets, the small plumbing problems add up on your water bill and waste precious resources. Our faucet and sink repair services and toilet repair services restore proper function to fixtures throughout your home. We also handle installation of new fixtures when you're ready to upgrade your bathrooms or kitchen.
Pipe Repair & Replacement
Aging pipes can lead to leaks, water damage, and reduced water quality. Our pipe leak repair and pipe replacement services address everything from minor leaks to complete repiping projects. We're also experienced with frozen pipe repair—a common winter emergency in our region when temperatures drop and pipes in unheated areas are at risk.
Sump Pump Installation
With Castle Creek's proximity to the Susquehanna River and potential for flooding, a reliable sump pump is essential protection for your basement. Our sump pump installation services provide peace of mind during heavy spring rains and rapid snowmelt events that can threaten your home's foundation.
Expert Heating Services to Keep Castle Creek Homes Warm
Upstate New York winters are no joke, with temperatures regularly dropping below zero and heating seasons that stretch from October through April. Your furnace or boiler is your family's first line of defense against the bitter cold, and it needs to perform reliably when you need it most.
Furnace Installation & Replacement
When your furnace reaches the end of its lifespan—typically 15 to 20 years—replacement becomes the most sensible option. Our furnace installation services feature high-efficiency Heil and Mitsubishi systems that can dramatically reduce your heating costs while providing consistent warmth throughout your home. We'll help you select the right size furnace for your home's square footage and insulation levels, ensuring optimal performance and efficiency. Many Castle Creek homeowners are eligible for utility rebates on high-efficiency equipment, and we can guide you through that process.
Furnace Repair & Maintenance
Regular maintenance is the key to avoiding unexpected breakdowns during the coldest weeks of winter. Our furnace repair services address common issues like ignition problems, blower motor failures, and thermostat malfunctions before they leave you shivering. We recommend scheduling a furnace tune-up every fall to catch small problems early, clean critical components, and ensure your system is ready for the demanding months ahead.
Boiler Services
Many of Castle Creek's older homes feature boiler heating systems, which provide comfortable radiant heat through the coldest weather. Our boiler installation, repair, and maintenance services keep these systems running efficiently. Whether you need a new boiler installed or your existing system serviced, our technicians have the expertise to work with all major brands and configurations.
Heat Pump Systems
Modern heat pump systems have evolved to handle upstate New York's climate, providing both heating and cooling in a single efficient package. Today's cold-climate heat pumps can effectively heat your home even when temperatures drop well below freezing, while offering significant energy savings compared to traditional heating systems. We install and service Mitsubishi heat pump systems known for their reliability and performance in challenging climates like ours.
Professional Cooling Services for Castle Creek's Summer Comfort
While our summers are shorter than our winters, Castle Creek still experiences stretches of hot, humid weather that make air conditioning essential for comfort. Whether you need a new system installed or your existing AC repaired, we provide comprehensive cooling solutions.
Air Conditioner Installation
Upgrading to a new, energy-efficient air conditioner can transform your home's comfort while reducing summer utility bills. Our air conditioner installation services feature Mitsubishi systems known for quiet operation, excellent efficiency, and reliable performance. We carefully size systems to match your home's cooling load, ensuring you get the comfort you need without paying for more capacity than necessary.
AC Repair Services
When your air conditioner stops working during a July heat wave, quick response matters. Our AC repair services diagnose and fix common problems like refrigerant leaks, failed compressors, and frozen coils. We stock many common parts on our service vehicles, allowing us to complete repairs on the first visit whenever possible.
Ductless Mini-Split Systems
For homes without existing ductwork or room additions that need independent climate control, ductless mini-split systems offer an ideal solution. These versatile systems provide both heating and cooling without the expense and disruption of installing ductwork. We specialize in Mitsubishi ductless mini-split installation, featuring some of the most efficient and reliable systems available. Ductless systems are particularly popular in Castle Creek's older homes where adding conventional ductwork would be impractical or prohibitively expensive.
AC Maintenance
Regular maintenance keeps your air conditioning system running efficiently and helps prevent unexpected breakdowns during the hottest weather. Our AC tune-up services clean coils, check refrigerant levels, test electrical components, and ensure your system is ready to deliver reliable cooling all summer long.

What Our Castle Creek Customers Say
"Kevin and team at Action Plumbing are awesome. Our furnace went out, Gary was here right away. The problem wound up being the inability to get parts for a Carrier furnace in a reasonable time frame. Because our handicap daughter was due to come home the next day we made the decision to have a new furnace installed. Kevin and Gary worked their magic, and within a few hours we had heat in the house again. We can’t thank them enough. A big thanks also goes to Nicki for all her help."
"Action plumbing came out and was able to fix my plumbing problems of a burst pipe during a cold spell. The repairmen were courteous and professional. The costs of the repair were more reasonable then others we had with previous work."

Castle Creek's Seasonal Plumbing & HVAC Guide
Living in upstate New York means planning ahead for seasonal challenges that affect your home's systems. Fall is the crucial time for furnace maintenance, as you want to catch any developing problems before you're depending on your heating system daily. We recommend scheduling your annual furnace tune-up in September or early October, before our schedule fills with emergency calls once cold weather arrives.
Winter brings the threat of frozen pipes, particularly in older homes with inadequate insulation or plumbing in exterior walls. Keep cabinet doors open during extreme cold snaps to allow warm air to circulate around pipes, and know where your main water shutoff is located in case a pipe does burst. If you're leaving town during winter, set your thermostat no lower than 55°F to protect your plumbing.
Spring's rapid snowmelt and heavy rains test sump pumps throughout the area. If you hear your sump pump running constantly or notice water accumulating in your basement, call us immediately—these are signs your pump may be struggling or failing. It's far better to address sump pump problems before they result in a flooded basement.
Summer is ideal for air conditioner maintenance and addressing any cooling system concerns before July's heat arrives. It's also a good time to check your well pump's performance and address any plumbing projects you've been putting off.
