Our Marion Plumbing Services
Your home’s plumbing works behind the scenes until something goes wrong. Then it’s all you can think about.
Marion’s coastal location creates specific plumbing challenges. Salt air accelerates corrosion on fixtures and equipment. Many properties serve as seasonal homes needing proper winterization and spring opening. Waterfront homes face unique drainage and corrosion issues.
GEM services all major components of your plumbing system, including water heaters, drains, sump pumps, well pumps, and water treatment equipment. Whether you’re facing an urgent leak or planning upgrades for improved performance, our technicians have the experience and tools to handle it right, backed by over 75 years serving Marion and surrounding South Coast communities.
Emergency Plumbing Services
GEM responds to plumbing emergencies across Marion any hour of the day or night.
When water floods your basement or drains back up unexpectedly, quick response prevents manageable problems from becoming major damage. Our licensed plumbers arrive equipped to contain the issue, fix it correctly, and protect your home. We handle everything from water heater failures and sump pump malfunctions to sewer backups.
Plumbing Installation
Correct installation prevents the leaks, pressure drops, and early wear that follow shortcuts.
Coastal installations require corrosion-resistant materials and proper techniques. GEM makes the process clear with honest communication, upfront pricing, and sound recommendations. We install faucets, sinks, showers, water heaters, garbage disposals, and complete repiping. Every project meets code and gets tested before we leave.
Plumbing Repair
GEM repairs plumbing problems so Marion homeowners can return to normal.
Dripping faucets, sluggish drains, toilets that run constantly. Ignore them and they waste water, raise bills, and risk structural damage. Our plumbers handle clogs, leaks, supply line issues, and water heater problems. We find the cause, explain it clearly, and discuss options before starting.
Plumbing Maintenance
Scheduled maintenance keeps plumbing healthy and prevents surprise failures.
Coastal properties benefit from more frequent maintenance. Salt air accelerates corrosion on fixtures and equipment. Preventive care extends the life of pipes, fixtures, and water heaters. GEM plumbers check for hidden leaks, corrosion, and pressure issues. We clear drains, test pressure, and verify everything operates correctly.
Drain Cleaning
GEM clears blockages using camera inspection and hydro jetting equipment.
Slow drains often signal buildup deeper in your pipes. Grease, soap, hair, and debris accumulate until water struggles to pass. We locate the obstruction, clear it completely, and restore proper flow.
- Hydrojetting: When drain snakes and plungers won’t cut it, high-pressure water cleaning blasts away grease, roots, mineral buildup, and stubborn clogs completely.
Water Treatment
Your Marion family deserves clean, safe water at every faucet.
Water quality varies across the area, and many homeowners deal with hard water, strange tastes, or mineral deposits that damage plumbing and appliances over time. GEM helps families improve water quality with reliable treatment solutions. Whole-house filtration, water softening, we make better water simple.
- Water Purifier System Installation: When tap water tastes off, smells odd, or looks cloudy, a purification system helps. GEM installs water filtration systems in Marion that remove contaminants, chlorine, and sediment. We test your water and recommend the right solution.
- Water Softener Installation: Hard water causes mineral buildup that damages pipes, stains fixtures, and shortens appliance life. GEM installs water softeners in Marion that protect your plumbing while improving how water feels. We select the right model, install it correctly, and verify operation.
- Water Softener Maintenance: Like any equipment, water softeners need regular service to perform well. Our technicians perform checkups, inspecting valves, replenishing salt, and cleaning components. Regular maintenance prevents scaling and extends equipment life.
- Water Softener Repair: Spots on glassware, dry skin, or stiff laundry suggest your softener isn’t performing. GEM plumbers diagnose and repair all major brands, fixing salt bridges, depleted resin, or faulty control valves. We restore efficiency so you enjoy soft water again.
- Water Softener Replacement: Water softeners lose effectiveness over time and eventually fail. When repairs no longer make sense, GEM helps you select and install a modern unit matched to your household. Newer systems run more efficiently and better protect your plumbing.

Water Heaters
Few household disruptions compare to losing hot water without warning.
Whether your water heater has failed or needs an upgrade, GEM provides expert installation, repair, and maintenance for tank and tankless systems. Coastal humidity and salt air impact equipment selection.
- Traditional Water Heater Installation: GEM installs tank water heaters in Marion that deliver consistent hot water for your household. We evaluate your home’s size, usage, and efficiency goals to recommend the right model, then install it safely and to code.
- Traditional Water Heater Replacement: Water heaters over 10 years old, slow to recover, or showing corrosion usually warrant replacement. Coastal conditions can accelerate aging. GEM simplifies upgrading by removing your old unit, installing an efficient new model, and ensuring proper connections for best performance.
- Traditional Water Heater Repair: No hot water? Strange noises? Puddles near the tank? Our plumbers diagnose and fix problems quickly. From faulty thermostats to worn elements and leaking tanks, we restore operation fast.

Well Pumps
Your well pump supplies every drop of water your household uses.
When pumps fail, nothing works – no water for drinking, cooking, bathing, or flushing. GEM handles well pump installation, repair, and troubleshooting in Marion, keeping reliable water supply flowing despite coastal conditions.
Septic Tanks
Homes running septic systems need steady maintenance avoiding messy, expensive failures.
Some Marion properties operate on septic rather than municipal sewer. Coastal conditions require properly maintained systems. GEM provides septic-conscious plumbing service understanding how everything affects your system. We coordinate with septic professionals when needed, ensuring work protects your septic investment.
Leak Detection
Hidden leaks in Marion homes can cause serious damage if not caught early.
Coastal properties and older homes contain aging pipes behind walls, under floors, and in basements, making leaks hard to find without specialized equipment. GEM provides leak detection using acoustic technology, thermal imaging, and other advanced methods to pinpoint leaks with minimal disruption.
Frozen Pipe Repair
Massachusetts winters can freeze pipes quickly, especially in seasonal properties.
Vacant homes and pipes running through uninsulated areas are vulnerable during cold snaps. Coastal winds increase freeze risk. GEM provides frozen pipe repair in Marion using professional thawing equipment to restore water flow safely and prevent bursting.
Sewer Lines
Aging infrastructure can lead to sewer line trouble.
Tree roots, deteriorating materials, and outdated underground lines can force wastewater back into homes. GEM provides sewer line repair in Marion using camera diagnostics to identify issues accurately and delivers repairs or replacements that restore proper flow.
Kitchen & Bath Remodel
Renovating a Marion kitchen or bathroom requires skilled plumbing for new layouts and upgraded fixtures.
Whether updating waterfront properties or renovating seasonal homes, remodeling typically involves relocating water lines, adjusting drains, and installing new fixtures. GEM coordinates with homeowners and contractors to ensure every sink, faucet, shower, and connection is installed correctly and to code.
Garbage Disposals
Busy Marion households count on working garbage disposals for convenient kitchen cleanup.
Jams, leaks, motor issues, and persistent odors interfere with daily routines. GEM repairs disposal problems and installs quality units that handle everyday use while operating quietly.

Plumbing FAQs
How do I winterize my seasonal Marion property?
Drain all water lines, add antifreeze to traps and toilets, shut off and drain water heaters, disconnect outdoor hoses, and insulate vulnerable pipes. We provide complete winterization service before you close for winter, preventing freeze damage in vacant properties. Spring opening service restarts systems safely.
Does salt air really damage plumbing on the South Coast?
Yes. Coastal exposure accelerates corrosion on metal fixtures, water heaters, and exposed piping. Stainless steel and polymer materials resist corrosion better than standard metals. We recommend corrosion-resistant components for coastal installations and schedule more frequent maintenance for waterfront properties.
What plumbing issues affect waterfront homes specifically?
Higher humidity creates condensation issues. Storm surge during nor’easters can flood basements and compromise underground utilities. Outdoor showers need proper drainage. We address these coastal-specific concerns with appropriate materials and installation methods.
Can you handle both year-round and vacation home needs?
Absolutely. We service both full-time Marion residents and seasonal property owners. Our scheduling accommodates opening/closing dates for summer homes. We coordinate with property managers for rental properties requiring mid-season service or emergency repairs when owners are away.
How quickly can you respond to emergencies?
We typically arrive within 1-2 hours for emergency calls in Marion and surrounding South Coast communities. Our 24/7 availability means you get help fast regardless of when problems strike – weekends, holidays, or middle of the night.
