Frequently Asked Questions
We provide 24/7 emergency plumbing services in Hoboken, and in most cases, a licensed plumber can arrive within an hour. Our team is based locally, so we’re able to respond faster than out-of-town contractors—whether you’re in Downtown Hoboken, Uptown, or near the waterfront.
Not every issue needs immediate service, but you should call our Hoboken emergency plumbers if you notice:
Burst or leaking pipes
Sewer line backups
Overflowing toilets
No hot water in the middle of winter
Flooding in your basement or kitchen
These problems can cause serious water damage if not fixed immediately.
The cost depends on the location of the leak and how severe it is. On average, minor leaks may cost around $150–$300, while major pipe repairs or replacements can range higher. At Royal Dukes Plumbing, we provide transparent, upfront pricing before any work begins, so there are no hidden surprises.

Yes! We handle both water heater repairs and full replacements across Hoboken, Jersey City, and Union City. Whether it’s a tank or tankless system, we’ll diagnose the issue and recommend the most cost-effective solution. If your unit is more than 10–12 years old, replacement is often the smarter investment.

Recurring clogs in sinks, tubs, or toilets
-
Gurgling sounds from drains
-
Foul odors coming from pipes
-
Water backing up into other fixtures
