Crofton's Plumbing Team for Quality Homes
Planned Community, Professional Plumbing Service
Crofton was built as a planned community in 1964 with the idea that everything should work the way it’s supposed to. Sixty years later, the plumbing in the original homes is reaching the age where it needs professional attention.

Serving Crofton and the Gambrills Area
Our shop is at 2714 Pulaski Highway in Edgewood, about 25 miles north of Crofton via I-97 and Route 3. Crofton is a planned community in Anne Arundel County with nearly 30,000 residents and approximately 10,850 housing units. Founded in 1964 and anchored by the Crofton Country Club, the community was designed with the same ambition as Reston, Virginia and Columbia, Maryland. The homes here reflect that planning, with well-maintained properties, tree-lined streets, and a family-oriented character.
Because Crofton was developed over several decades, the plumbing across the community spans a wide range of ages. The original 1960s and 1970s sections have copper and cast iron plumbing that’s now 50 to 60 years old. The 1980s and 1990s expansions have systems that are 30 to 40 years into their service life. Newer sections along the Waugh Chapel corridor feature modern plumbing that still needs its first round of maintenance and replacements. We serve all of it.
Our team is led by a licensed Master Plumber and Master Gas Fitter with 28 years of experience. We’re licensed, bonded, and insured under Maryland License #74826. Financing is available through Wisetack for larger plumbing projects.

Traditional and tankless water heater installation, repair, and replacement. Crofton families with larger homes and multiple bathrooms are strong candidates for tankless systems that never run out of hot water. Save $200 on installation or $400 on a tankless upgrade this spring.

Bathroom and kitchen remodel plumbing, including full renovations with tile, flooring, and cabinetry. For original Crofton homes where the supply lines and drains have reached their limit, whole house repiping solves the problem at the source.
What Crofton Homeowners Should Know
The Original Sections Are 50 to 60 Years Old
The first phase of Crofton was built in the mid-1960s and expanded through the 1970s. Copper supply lines from this era develop pinhole leaks as they age. Cast iron drain stacks corrode from the inside out. Original sewer connections weaken at joints where tree roots have had decades to find their way in. If your Crofton home is from the original development and you haven’t had the plumbing evaluated, now is the time.
Each Phase of Crofton Has Its Own Plumbing Timeline
Because Crofton was built in phases over several decades, the plumbing across the community ages at different rates. The 1960s sections need evaluation now. The 1980s sections are approaching their maintenance window. The 2000s sections are entering their first replacement cycle for water heaters and fixtures. Knowing where your home falls in the development timeline helps you plan ahead.
Mature Trees and Sewer Line Problems
Crofton’s tree-lined streets and wooded lots are part of the community’s appeal. But those mature root systems seek out moisture in sewer line joints, especially in the original clay and cast iron connections. If your drains back up regularly or you’ve had the same line snaked more than once, a camera inspection confirms whether roots are the cause.
Commercial Plumbing Near Waugh Chapel
The Waugh Chapel area along Route 3 has grown into a significant commercial corridor with restaurants, retail, and professional offices. We provide commercial drain cleaning, grease trap service, backflow testing, and commercial maintenance plans for Crofton-area businesses.
Hard Water Shortens Appliance Life
Anne Arundel County municipal water carries mineral hardness that causes scale buildup in pipes, water heaters, dishwashers, and washing machines. For Crofton homeowners who invest in quality fixtures and appliances, a water softener or whole-house filtration system protects those investments at every tap.

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! 🫠
