Why Wallingford Homeowners Trust Scarpignato Plumbing

Multiple Solutions, Not Just Upsells
Unlike large corporate plumbing companies focused on maximizing revenue, we present you with multiple repair options at different price points. Whether it’s offering trenchless pipe repair alongside traditional open trench methods, or spot-fixing a sewer line instead of complete replacement, we educate you so you can make the best decision for your home and budget.
Family Name Accountability
When our technicians arrive in trucks bearing the Scarpignato name, they know our family’s reputation is on the line with every job. We stand behind every repair with our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee because, as Michael says, “My name’s on it, and I don’t have another one.”
Deep Community Roots
We’re not a corporate franchise – we’re your neighbors who donate tens of thousands annually to local charities, sponsor Wallingford-Swarthmore School District athletics, and serve on nonprofit boards. When you hire us, you’re supporting a business that gives back to the community that supports us. Read about our commitment in this local business feature.
Advanced Equipment for Every Job
We’ve invested in specialized equipment including hydro jetting systems, trenchless pipe repair technology, and video camera inspection tools. This means we can handle complex jobs that other plumbers refer out, saving you time and the hassle of coordinating multiple contractors.

What is a sewer lateral inspection for Delaware County U&O requirements?
A sewer lateral inspection is required by many Delaware County townships during property transfers to ensure compliance with local Use & Occupancy ordinances. We perform smoke testing, video camera inspection, and sewer cleaning, then complete and submit all required township forms directly to your municipality. This ensures your property transfer isn’t delayed by plumbing compliance issues.
Should I choose trenchless or open trench sewer repair?
The choice depends on your property’s specific conditions, budget, and the extent of damage. Trenchless repair minimizes landscape disruption and is often faster, while open trench may be more cost-effective for extensive replacements. Our master plumbers assess your situation and provide multiple options with transparent pricing so you can make an informed decision. We never push the most expensive option—we explain the pros and cons of each approach.
How long does a water heater installation take?
Most standard water heater replacements can be completed in 2-4 hours. We service gas, electric, and power vent models including traditional tank, tankless, and hybrid systems. Our technicians ensure proper installation with all necessary safety components including thermal expansion tanks and code-compliant venting. If you’re experiencing a water heater emergency, we prioritize getting your hot water restored as quickly as possible.

Owner Michael Scarpignato holds a master plumber’s license and is a licensed plumbing inspector for both residential and commercial properties. We maintain all required certifications and insurance coverage for your protection. We do not operate in New Jersey or Delaware as we are not licensed in those states.
What’s included in your drain cleaning service?
Our drain cleaning services include professional video camera inspection to identify the exact cause of blockages, mechanical cleaning using specialized equipment like the RIDGID K400 for smaller drains, and hydro jetting for stubborn clogs, grease buildup, and tree root intrusion. We provide clear diagnostics and multiple solution options based on your specific situation, with four pricing tiers so you only pay for the level of service you need.
Do you provide written estimates before starting work?
Yes, we provide detailed written estimates before beginning any major repair or installation.

The Scarpignato Difference: 14+ Years of Getting It Done
I’m Mike Scarpignato, and I’ve spent almost 25 years solving plumbing problems other companies said couldn’t be fixed. My guys wear shirts with my name on them, drive trucks with my name on them, and every bill has my name on it – because I stand behind every job we do.
We’re not here to grow our bottom line. We’re here to grow our reputation in the community that supports us. That’s why we donate tens of thousands to local charities and why we do more plumbing work in Media and Swarthmore than anyone else.
