Lewisburg-Based.
Serving Northumberland & the Confluence.
Northumberland sits at one of the most historically significant spots in Pennsylvania — the confluence of the North and West Branches of the Susquehanna River. It’s a borough of about 3,700 residents with deep roots, a compact downtown, and a housing stock that reflects more than a century of growth along the river corridor.
That history means Northumberland homes carry some of the most varied plumbing in the region — original galvanized supply lines and clay sewer laterals in the oldest downtown blocks, mid-century cast iron systems in post-war neighborhoods, and newer PVC in Point Township and surrounding development. We know what to look for in each, and we won’t recommend work that isn’t necessary.
Knauss Plumbing is based in Lewisburg, about 15 miles north via Route 15. Northumberland homeowners get the same flat-rate pricing, the same fast scheduling, and the same direct line to Roger as anyone in our primary service area. No extra charge. No longer wait. No second-tier service.

How quickly can a plumber get to my Northumberland home?
Is the pricing the same for Northumberland as for Lewisburg?
Do you handle older homes with galvanized pipe or clay sewer lines in Northumberland?
Do you service well pumps and private water systems near Northumberland?
Yes — many properties in Point Township and the rural areas surrounding Northumberland run on private wells. Knauss Plumbing handles well pump repair, well pump replacement, pressure tank service, and water treatment systems throughout Northumberland County.

Does Northumberland have hard water?
Northumberland borough is served by the Sunbury city water system, which draws from the Susquehanna River and runs moderately hard. Properties on private wells in the surrounding townships can vary considerably — some carry additional concerns like iron, sediment, or sulfur on top of hardness. Knauss Plumbing tests your specific water before recommending any treatment system, because what a well property needs and what a city water home needs can be very different. Ask about a water quality assessment when you call.
