Both Chatham Borough and Chatham Township are served by our Morristown-based team.
Chatham — both Borough and Township — gets Sidekick service. We run trucks through Chatham daily, and our local familiarity to Chatham urgent issues are typically 30–60 minutes. The borough's older homes and the township's newer construction both keep our team busy.
Chatham Borough's downtown blocks have homes built between 1900 and 1940 — many with original plumbing systems still in service, with creative additions from every decade since. Chatham Township is mostly mid-century construction with larger lots, and we see a different set of issues there: older copper supply lines, septic systems on the township's edges, and bigger water-heater installations.

From a Chatham Borough Victorian's drain stack to a Chatham Township ranch's water heater swap, Sidekick handles it the same way: licensed field team, fixed-price quote, and clear appointment scheduling. Call (973) 397-5347.
Plumbing isn't generic — every neighborhood has its own housing stock and quirks. Here's what we see day to day.
Pre-1940 homes near the train station, often with galvanized supply, cast-iron drains, and previous renovations that left a patchwork of pipe materials. We map the system and recommend repairs that move the home forward — not just fixes that postpone the next call.
Mid-century construction with original copper supply and cast-iron drains. Pinhole leaks, slow main drains, and aging water heaters are the most common calls. We do a lot of staged repiping here.
Modern PEX, tankless water heaters, pressure-balanced systems. Most service calls are routine maintenance and small fixture issues.
Local housing stock and water chemistry shape what breaks. These are the recurring problems we solve in Chatham.
Pre-1960 Chatham homes still on galvanized often see hot-water pressure drop years before cold. We test, document, and lay out repipe options including staged work to spread the cost.
Mature trees plus older clay sewer laterals plus heavy spring rain equals annual root intrusion. We hydro-jet, camera-inspect, and recommend lining or replacement when warranted.
Pinholes and full collapses in original cast-iron drain stacks are increasingly common in pre-1960 Chatham homes. We handle replacement with minimal wall damage.
Both Chatham municipalities have separate building departments with their own paperwork preferences. We work in both regularly, and our permit work clears inspections without back-and-forth.
Excellent! Jimmy and his partner provide outstanding plumbing services. Diagnoses problems quickly and explains the whole process thoroughly. Highly recommend!
I had a great experience with Sidekick Plumbing! They installed new pipes for my washer and a shower valve in my condo in East Hanover. The plumber was professional, efficient, and knowledgeable, making the whole process smooth and hassle-free. Definitely a company I would recommend.
Jimmy was on time, professional, fairly priced and most importantly fixed the water leak I had in my bathroom. Will 100% be using Sidekick Plumbing in the future!
