A Family Business Built on Trust — Since 1980

When our founder started this company in 1980, the goal was simple: do honest work, treat people fairly, and never cut corners on a job. That same philosophy still guides every visit our technicians make today. For over four decades, the DeGasperi name has meant one thing to homeowners around Mahopac: a family business that shows up, does the job right, and stands behind its work.

A Second-Generation Family Business

What started as one person with a truck and a toolbox has grown into a full-service plumbing and heating company, now run by the second generation of the DeGasperi family. That continuity matters more than it might seem. When a business passes from parent to child, it doesn’t just change ownership, it carries forward the relationships, the reputation, and the accountability that were built over years of service calls, referrals, and repeat customers.

Being second generation means we’re not chasing quick jobs or short-term contracts. We’re maintaining a name that our family has put on trucks, invoices, and handshakes since 1980. Every technician who works under that name understands that a sloppy job or a broken promise doesn’t just hurt a single visit, it reflects on decades of work. That’s the kind of accountability you get with a family-owned operation that plans to be here for another 45 years, not just until the next slow season.

Licensed, Insured, and Locally Rooted

We are fully licensed and insured, and we carry that responsibility seriously on every job, from a simple faucet repair to a full heating system replacement. Our licensing is verifiable, and it means we meet the training, safety, and code requirements that protect your home and your family, not just our business.

Where We Work

Our roots are in Mahopac, and our service area has grown alongside the communities we’ve come to know well: Somers, Yorktown Heights, Shrub Oak, Croton Falls, and the broader stretch of Westchester and Putnam Counties. As a Westchester County plumber with deep ties to the surrounding towns, we’ve worked in more basements, crawl spaces, and mechanical rooms across this region than we could count. That local knowledge — of older homes, well systems, seasonal freeze patterns, and township permitting — is something you can’t fake with a franchise operation passing through from out of the area.

What Our Customers Say

We’re proud that our reputation has been built one job at a time. The feedback we hear most often isn’t about flashy marketing, it’s about the basics done consistently well. Customers mention how quickly we respond when a pipe bursts or a heating system fails in the middle of winter. They mention that our technicians clean up after themselves and treat a customer’s home like it matters, because it does. And they mention something harder to earn: trust. Many of the families we serve today are the children or grandchildren of customers our founder worked with decades ago. That kind of long-term relationship doesn’t happen by accident.

As a family plumber Mahopac NY residents have relied on since 1980, we understand that plumbing and heating problems are rarely convenient. They tend to surface on the coldest morning of the year or the day before company arrives. What we can control is how we respond: answering the phone ourselves, giving you a clear picture of the problem and the cost before we start, and finishing the job properly the first time.

A Neighbor, Not Just a Contractor

We live in this community, our kids go to school here, and we shop at the same stores as our customers. Being a plumbing company Mahopac families recognize by name — not just by a logo on a truck — is something we don’t take for granted. It’s the reason we still answer the phone personally, show up on time, and treat every home the way we’d want our own family’s home treated.
