Best for sewer, drains, and stubborn clogs
Big Apple Installations
NYC Master Plumber license #002361 · verified active
Brooklyn's sewer-and-drain workhorse. The licensed entity is literally Big Apple Sewer & Drain, Inc. They're strong on drain-clearing, sewer lines, gas piping, and Local Law 152 work. Flatbush-based but working heavily across Brooklyn, with most of its city permits on Brooklyn jobs. Park Slope Parents reviewers single out the drain work, and one flags occasional over-diagnosis, so get the scope in writing. This is Big Apple Installations, not the unrelated Queens firm Big Apple Plumbing & Heating.
