Our Services
Smart Housing Systems Inc provides a comprehensive range of residential and commercial services — from routine maintenance to full-scale emergency response.
Plumbing Installation & Repair
Our licensed plumbers handle installation, repair, and replacement of toilets, faucets, sinks, bathtubs, showers, and garbage disposals. We work with all pipe types — copper, cast iron, galvanized, PVC, and black steel gas pipe — and deliver lasting solutions on the first visit.
Water Heater Services
We install, repair, and maintain the full spectrum of water heating equipment: traditional tank-style gas and electric water heaters (up to 100 gallons), power vent models, tankless (on-demand) water heaters, condensing units, and hot water recirculating pump systems. We are proud to carry and install industry-leading brands including Bradford White, Navien, and Bosch.
Sewer & Drain Services
From routine drain cleaning to emergency sewer line repairs, our team uses professional-grade equipment to clear blockages, perform high-pressure hydro jetting, and conduct video inspections of underground sewer, storm, and drain tile lines — giving you a clear picture of what's happening beneath your property before any digging begins.
Sump Pump & Ejector Pump
We install and replace sump pumps, sewage ejector pumps, battery backup systems, and water-powered backup units. Our lineup includes trusted Zoeller systems, including Wi-Fi-enabled models that allow remote monitoring and instant alerts.
Water Pressure Booster Systems
Low water pressure is no longer something you have to live with. We install Grundfos SCALA2 and CMBE booster pump systems to deliver consistent, strong water pressure throughout your home.

We install and service a wide range of whole-home water treatment solutions: water softeners, sediment and carbon filters, reverse osmosis systems, UV filters, salt-free softeners, descalers, magnetic filters, and well water treatment systems.
