Long Island’s Bathroom Plumbing Team

Nassau and Suffolk County homeowners call Universe when a bathroom plumbing problem goes beyond what a trip to the hardware store is going to solve.

Bathroom plumbing in Long Island’s older homes has specific characteristics that require experienced hands. Hard Nassau County water leaves mineral deposits inside faucet cartridges, showerheads, and supply stops that accelerate wear beyond what manufacturer lifespan estimates assume.

Galvanized supply lines in homes built before the 1970s narrow from scale accumulation and affect water pressure. Drain assemblies in original bathrooms from the 1950s and 1960s are frequently undersized or incorrectly sloped. Universe licensed master plumbers have been working in these homes since 1954 and handle what they find.

Why Work With Universe Home Services?

All bathroom plumbing work in Nassau and Suffolk County requires a licensed plumber. We perform every job with licensed master plumbers on staff.

Nassau County’s hard water affects cartridge life, aerator condition, showerhead output, and drain assembly performance in ways a plumber unfamiliar with local water conditions will miss. We factor water hardness into every diagnosis and recommendation.

Since 1954, we have been in Long Island bathrooms. Seven decades of licensed plumbing work across Nassau and Suffolk County means our plumbers know what to expect before the wall opens.

A leaking shower or a rocking toilet may involve water damage that is not visible from the surface. We tell you what we find when the wall or floor comes open, not what you want to hear.

Bathroom work frequently surfaces electrical concerns at the exhaust fan, GFCI outlet, or lighting circuit. We cover all three trades without a second contractor.

Bathroom plumbing that involves new rough-in, drain work, or supply line replacement requires a permit in most cases. We pull the permit and coordinate the inspection so you have documentation the work was done correctly.

Universe is a BBB Accredited Business. Seven decades of plumbing work across Long Island stands behind every bathroom we service.

We live and work on Long Island. Homeowners across Nassau and Suffolk County rely on us because we know the homes here and we stand by the work.

Amazing experience! Before i bought my house Universe had installed two mini splits.This is a large company that stands by its work. Joanne navigated me through the permit process. She answered all of my questions. Scheduled all of my appointments and even sent an electrician to make sure I was up to code and that it would pass. The electrician Jimmy that showed up was friendly, professional and on time. He worked with me when it came to scheduling. He corrected an issue so I would be able to pass inspection and helped label my circuit breaker correctly. When he was done I didn't even know he was there because he left his work area very clean. They even had someone come to my house when the town was doing its final inspection. This made everything go smoothly.I highly recommend this company. It was a pleasue working with every person that I had to deal with.

Very professional and honest. Justin took tge time to explain the problem and provided several options that I can choose from. I felt really comfortable with my decision.
Marc came out to go over our options for adding central air or a hybrid ductless system. He took the time to walk through the entire house, inspect everything thoroughly, and explain all of our options in a way that was easy to understand. He was incredibly friendly, even taking the time to interact with our dog, which we appreciated. After the walkthrough, he sat down with us and carefully explained each system, even drawing a diagram to help us better understand how one of the options would work. We absolutely loved working with Marc and could immediately tell how knowledgeable and experienced he is. We never felt rushed and left the consultation feeling informed and confident about our next steps. Highly recommend!

With a plumbing emergency on a Saturday, finding a good plumber is impossible…. except for Universal Home Services. From the time I called to Brian's arrival was less than 30 minutes. He immediately put me at ease and knew exactly what needed to be done. I had a washing machine delivered but during installation, a pipe snapped and they were not qualified to fix it. Brian fixed everything within 20 minutes, then installed the washing machine and stayed to run through a cycle to make sure everything worked perfectly. Some might say the price was high but for a Saturday emergency….. and so promptly and efficiently, I can't complain.
The technician was very knowledgeable and helpful

Toilet Services

A toilet that runs, rocks, leaks at the base, or will not flush correctly is not a problem that resolves on its own. It gets worse or it gets expensive.

Universe repairs and replaces toilets across Nassau and Suffolk County.

A toilet that runs continuously after flushing has a failed flapper, a fill valve that is not shutting off, or a float set incorrectly. Any of these waste a significant amount of water every day the problem continues.

A toilet that moves when sat on, or that shows water or a brown ring at the base, has a failed wax seal. Left unaddressed, the leak damages the subfloor and the ceiling of whatever is below the bathroom.

A toilet that requires multiple flushes has either a mineral-clogged rim or jet, a fill valve that is not filling the tank to the correct level, or a partial blockage in the trap or drain.

Toilets from the pre-1.6 gallon-per-flush era use significantly more water than modern units. Replacement with a current model reduces water consumption and eliminates recurring repair costs on aging internal components.

Shower and Tub Services

A shower that drips when off, delivers inconsistent temperature, drains slowly, or has a failing pan or surround is a plumbing problem, not a cosmetic one.

Universe services showers and tubs across Nassau and Suffolk County.

A dripping showerhead or tub spout that continues after the handle is turned off has a worn cartridge or valve seat. The repair is typically a cartridge replacement, but in older homes with original valves, the cartridge may no longer be available and a valve replacement is required.

A shower that swings between hot and cold without the handle moving has a pressure-balancing valve that has failed. In homes without a pressure-balancing valve, which is common in older Long Island construction, temperature inconsistency may also result from pressure fluctuations in the supply lines.

Water behind a shower wall moves fast. A leaking pan or failed grout that has allowed water behind the surround requires opening the wall to assess the substrate and structural damage before any new fixture goes in. We handle the full scope.

A drain that backs up despite clearing points to a problem beyond the trap: a drain assembly that is pitched incorrectly, a branch line that is partially blocked, or an original drain that is undersized for the home’s usage.

Sink and Faucet Services

Bathroom sink and faucet problems range from a nuisance to a water damage risk depending on what is happening and how long it has been going on.

Universe installs, repairs, and replaces bathroom sinks and faucets across Nassau and Suffolk County. We can help with:

A dripping faucet wastes water every day it runs. The cause is almost always a worn cartridge, a failed ceramic disc, or a degraded O-ring. Nassau County’s hard water accelerates cartridge wear faster than the manufacturer’s stated lifespan.

Low pressure at a single fixture points to a clogged aerator or a partially closed supply stop. Low pressure at all bathroom fixtures points to a broader supply line issue, possibly galvanized pipes that have narrowed from scale accumulation.

Water under the vanity from the supply stop or P-trap is a slow leak that becomes water damage if it is ignored. We replace the failed fitting and inspect the surrounding cabinet for signs the leak has been running for a while.

When a faucet has reached the end of its useful life or a homeowner is updating fixtures as part of a bathroom renovation, we handle the replacement including the supply connections, drain assembly, and any stop valve work required.

Bathroom Drain Services

Bathroom drains see soap, hair, mineral scale, and debris every day. When they slow down or back up, the fix is rarely at the drain itself.

Universe clears and repairs bathroom drains across Nassau and Suffolk County.

A bathroom sink drain that runs slowly has soap, hair, and mineral scale accumulation in the P-trap or further down the branch line. We clear the drain and identify whether the drain assembly itself needs service.

A drain that backs up beyond the trap points to a branch line issue, a vent problem, or a main line concern. We investigate and address the underlying cause rather than clearing the immediate clog.

A drain that gurgles when another fixture is used has a venting problem. The fix is at the vent, not the drain, and we identify which is which before recommending the work.

When a drain assembly is undersized, incorrectly pitched, or made of material that has reached the end of its service life, replacement is the reliable fix. We handle the permit, the rough-in, and the reconnection of the fixture.

Bathroom Plumbing FAQs

How do I know if my toilet leak is at the wax ring or somewhere else?

A wax ring failure typically shows as water or discoloration at the base of the toilet, particularly after flushing. It may also show as a soft or spongy floor around the toilet base, which indicates subfloor damage from a leak that has been present for some time. Water appearing from a different location points to a different failure, and a licensed plumber diagnoses the source before recommending a repair.

Does Long Island’s hard water really affect faucets and fixtures that much?

Yes. Nassau County water hardness is among the highest in the New York metro area. Cartridges, ceramic disc valves, and showerhead components accumulate mineral scale that degrades performance and shortens service life. A faucet that might last 15 years in a softer-water area may need cartridge replacement in five to seven years here.

When should I repair a fixture versus replace it?

Repairs make sense when the fixture itself is in good structural condition and the failure is a component. Replacement makes more sense when the fixture is past its useful life, repair parts are no longer available, or the cost of repair approaches the cost of a new fixture installed.

Can Universe handle a full bathroom plumbing rough-in for a renovation?

Yes. We handle new construction rough-in and renovation rough-in across Nassau and Suffolk County, including drain and supply rough-in, vent stack connections, and fixture trim-out. If the renovation also involves electrical work for lighting or exhaust fans, we handle that scope as well.
