The short answer
Warren has a median build year of 1985 across its housing. That is late enough for copper and early enough for polybutylene in places, which is why the pattern of the symptom is worth establishing before anybody is called out.

Warren has 5,632 occupied homes across 1 ZIP code. Across all its housing, vacant units included, the median build year is 1985 — the most useful single fact for working out why the water pressure is weak, because it predicts what the supply pipe is made of.

Contractors are required to hold whatever credential their state or municipality demands.

We do not perform plumbing work, we do not set prices, and we never charge homeowners anything — the contractors in our network pay us when we route them a call.Warren sits 19 years newer than the NJ median of 1966. Of the 449 NJ towns we route calls in, its housing is older than 13% of them, and by number of homes it ranks 177th.
What 1985 tells you about the pipe in Warren
Housing of this vintage generally means copper throughout in most cases, with polybutylene fitted in some homes built from the late seventies onward. Polybutylene was discontinued in the mid-nineties and is worth identifying, because its failures are sudden rather than gradual. More on 1980s supply pipe.
89% of occupied homes in Warren are owner-occupied, 26 points above the NJ figure of 63%. It matters here because the run between the meter and the house belongs to the property owner, not the utility.

The first thing to establish in Warren is whether the problem is the house or one fixture, and it takes two minutes of walking around. Housing of this era can be copper throughout or copper with polybutylene in part, and the two fail differently enough that the pattern matters. Normal is 45–80 psi, under 40 psi is low — test it. Whole house is a call; one tap usually is not.
