Serving Joppa and Joppatowne from Next Door
Our shop is at 2714 Pulaski Highway in Edgewood, just a few miles west of Joppa on Route 40. Joppa and the surrounding Joppatowne community cover southwestern Harford County with over 16,000 residents across the 21085 ZIP code. The area is bordered by the Gunpowder River and Little Gunpowder Falls to the west, Route 40 to the north, and the Amtrak Northeast Corridor to the south, creating a well-defined community between Edgewood and the Bel Air corridor.
Joppatowne was established in 1961 as a planned residential community, and its original homes are now over 60 years old. The broader Joppa area stretches north along Route 152 toward Bel Air, with a mix of suburban neighborhoods, rural properties on well water and septic, and commercial activity along Route 40. We handle the full range of plumbing service this area needs, from aging Joppatowne infrastructure to well pump repair on the rural properties.

What Joppa Homeowners Should Know
1960s Planned Community With Aging Plumbing
Joppatowne was established in 1961 as a planned residential development. The original homes are now over 60 years old with copper supply lines, cast iron drain stacks, and sewer connections that have been in service since the Kennedy administration. Low water pressure, discolored water, and recurring drain problems in Joppatowne often trace back to the plumbing infrastructure rather than a single fixture.
Properties North of Joppatowne Run on Wells and Septic
The Joppa ZIP code extends north along Route 152 toward Benson and Bel Air. Properties outside the Joppatowne planned community often rely on private wells and septic systems. Well water in this part of Harford County commonly carries hardness, iron, and manganese that require treatment. Septic tanks need pumping every 3 to 5 years.
Waterfront Properties Along the Gunpowder
Joppatowne’s western border runs along the Gunpowder River and Little Gunpowder Falls. Properties near the river face higher groundwater and increased moisture in basements and crawl spaces. Sump pumps with battery backup systems protect your home when the water table rises during storms and spring thaw.
Businesses Along Route 40
Route 40 forms Joppa’s northern boundary and connects the community to Edgewood, Aberdeen, and the I-95 corridor. Restaurants, retail, and commercial properties along this route need reliable commercial plumbing. We provide drain cleaning, grease trap service, backflow testing, and commercial maintenance plans.

Hear It From Your Neighbors
Very Professional and gets the job done! Bailey Bros was recommended to me by a friend who is a general contractor. They came and were very transparent with everything that needed to be done. They were professional and courteous as they explained everything before and during the process. They had to dig a very deep trench to access my sewer line and they returned the following days to finish, re-seed and straw my yard. Thank you! I have peace-of-mind knowing the task was done right.
I was having problems with my toilet and was looking for a plumber. I called Bailey Bros. and spoke with Ray on the first call. He came to my home and fixed the issue. He was very professional and easy to deal with from the first conversation I had with him. He was great! I will only call Bailey Brothers for any plumbing issues I have in the future.
Had these guys install a hot water heater for me. I bought the heater and they were gracious enough to install it. They were friendly, responsive and the least expensive after a comprehensive search. Significantly less expensive. They were thorough and explained everything. Shawn (my tech) was charming. Someone you’d be happy to go out and have a drink with. They have a 5 star rating. They ran a little late, but for the savings and quality of work, it was well worth it. The basement was a little cleaner after their work than before they arrived. I highly recommend them.
Thank you Shawn and Mike! My water heater busted on a Saturday and they were able to install a new one within a few days! 🥰 you guys are awesome! It’s so much better than the old one from 1999! 🫠
