Commercial & Residential Plumber

Peterson Plumbing & Heating is a locally owned and family-operated company serving Central New York since 1995. Founded by a Master Plumber with decades of hands-on trade experience, the company was built on a simple foundation: honest work, fair pricing, and quality craftsmanship.
