DETAILED SERVICE BREAKDOWN
Mackenzie Contracting provides plumbing repairs for South Jersey homes and rental properties — including faucet repair and replacement, toilet repair and installation, shower and bathroom fixture upgrades, under-sink supply line repairs, garbage disposal installation, outdoor hose bib repair, and pre-season plumbing inspections for vacation rentals.
Leaky faucets, dripping taps, and worn-out handles are among the most common plumbing repairs in South Jersey homes. Mackenzie Contracting handles kitchen and bathroom faucet replacement, cartridge and handle repairs, and fixture upgrades for both single-family homes and rental properties. Shore properties in particular benefit from periodic faucet replacement — salt-air environments accelerate mineral buildup and corrosion on older fixture components, and swapping to a new faucet is often more cost-effective than repeated repairs on a corroded unit.
A running toilet wastes hundreds of gallons of water per week — a genuine cost to homeowners and landlords alike. Mackenzie Contracting handles fill valve replacement, flapper replacement, and full toilet installation for bathroom remodels or fixture upgrades across Atlantic County. Toilet repair in Atlantic County is a frequent service for rental property landlords: replacing worn or cracked toilets between tenants is a straightforward way to reduce long-term maintenance callbacks and leave units in genuinely good condition for incoming renters.
Shower head replacement, bathtub faucet repairs, bathroom valve repairs, and tub spout replacement are all within scope. Shore properties see accelerated fixture wear compared to year-round residences — hard water, salt air, and intermittent seasonal use are a tough combination for bathroom fixtures, and periodic replacement is often the most practical solution.
P-trap replacement, supply line replacement, and shut-off valve repairs are standard under-sink plumbing fixes that keep kitchens and bathrooms functional. These repairs come up frequently during rental property turnover — a corroded supply line or leaking P-trap discovered during tenant transition is exactly the kind of item that belongs on a pre-occupancy checklist. For a complete list of between-tenant services, see our rental property maintenance services for Atlantic County landlords.
Garbage disposal installation for kitchen upgrades and replacement of failed units are both within NJ HIC contractor scope. Electrical connection to an existing outlet is included — installation of a new dedicated circuit is not within scope and would require a licensed electrician. If your kitchen has an existing disposal outlet under the sink, replacement is typically a straightforward same-day job.
Freeze damage to outdoor hose bibs is one of the most predictable plumbing repairs in South Jersey shore towns — a single hard freeze with an unprotected spigot can split the fitting and cause interior water damage when the property is reopened in spring. Mackenzie Contracting provides pre-season hose bib inspection and replacement for Longport, Ventnor, Margate, and surrounding shore properties before the summer rental season begins.
etween-tenant plumbing checks cover the items that generate the most callbacks: faucet drips, running toilets, supply line integrity, and shut-off valve operation. Atlantic County landlords can schedule a multi-item plumbing walkthrough timed to tenant turnover — addressing worn fixtures proactively rather than reactively.

SHORE & VACATION RENTALS
Shore properties in Longport, Ventnor, Margate, and Brigantine need reliable pre-season plumbing maintenance before summer rentals begin. Mackenzie Contracting provides plumbing repairs and seasonal inspections for vacation rental owners — including fixture checks, supply line inspections, hose bib replacements, and faucet repairs before peak season occupancy.
South Jersey shore properties face a plumbing calendar that year-round residences don’t. Properties are opened in spring, run hard through summer, and closed for fall and winter. That cycle — combined with salt-air corrosion on exposed fixtures and freeze damage to outdoor supply lines — means fixture wear accumulates faster than it would inland. For Longport vacation rental owners where summer occupancy and rental income are highest, having a reliable NJ HIC licensed contractor lined up before Memorial Day weekend is the difference between a smooth opening and a lost week of rental income.
Recommended: Schedule pre-season plumbing inspections for shore properties in April for the best availability ahead of the summer rush.
LICENSING TRANSPARENCY
In New Jersey, a licensed plumber is required for major plumbing work — including new pipe installations, gas line connections, new water heater installations, and permit-required projects. Mackenzie Contracting handles residential plumbing repairs within NJ HIC contractor scope and will tell you directly when your job requires a licensed plumber.
Understanding scope protects you as a homeowner or landlord. Mackenzie Contracting is an NJ HIC licensed contractor — not a licensed plumbing contractor. That distinction matters for certain types of work. Here is a clear breakdown:
If your job turns out to need a licensed NJ plumber after assessment, John will tell you directly, clearly, without ambiguity, and before any work begins. We would rather refer you to the right professional than take on work that puts your home or rental property at risk. That’s what separates Mackenzie Contracting from unlicensed operators who overpromise. Questions about scope? Contact Mackenzie Contracting — John responds personally.
