Answers to the most frequently asked plumbing questions from Pittsburgh homeowners.
To prevent frozen pipes in Pittsburgh, insulate exposed pipes in unheated areas like garages, crawl spaces, and attics. Keep cabinet doors under sinks open during cold snaps. Let faucets drip slightly during freezing temperatures. If a pipe does freeze, call Magnet Plumbing immediately rather than attempting to thaw it yourself to avoid a burst.
Most Pittsburgh homeowners benefit from professional drain cleaning every 1 to 2 years as preventive maintenance. Homes with large families, frequent cooking, or older plumbing may need service more often. Tree roots, grease buildup, and hair are the most common causes of drain problems in Pittsburgh. Magnet Plumbing uses hydro-jetting and snaking to thoroughly clear all drain types.
Burst pipes, gas leaks, sewer backups, and flooding all require immediate emergency plumbing response in Pittsburgh. A burst pipe can release hundreds of gallons per hour, and gas leaks pose fire and explosion risks. Magnet Plumbing provides 24/7 emergency plumbing service throughout Pittsburgh and surrounding Pennsylvania communities.
If you smell gas in your Pittsburgh home, do not operate any electrical switches, open flames, or appliances. Leave the building immediately, leaving doors open as you go. Call your gas utility from outside or from a neighbor, then call Magnet Plumbing for emergency gas line inspection. Do not re-enter until a professional has cleared the property.
Most tank water heaters last 8 to 12 years. Consider replacement when your unit is over 10 years old, produces rusty or discolored water, makes rumbling or popping noises, or requires frequent repairs. Magnet Plumbing offers free water heater assessments to help Pittsburgh homeowners decide between repair and replacement.
Your main water shutoff valve in Pittsburgh is typically located near the water meter, near the front foundation, or in the basement or utility room. Turn the valve clockwise to close it. If you cannot find your shutoff or it is stuck, call Magnet Plumbing immediately — our emergency crew can help locate and operate the valve to stop water damage.
