Plumbing & Water Services Pros

Plumbers install and repair the pipes, fixtures and appliances that bring water into a house and take waste out of it - supply lines, drains, water heaters, toilets, sinks, showers, and, for some firms, wells, septic systems and water treatment.

Do You Need Plumbing & Water Services?

Call a plumber for leaks, low water pressure, slow or backed-up drains, a water heater that is leaking or not heating, sewer smells, or any new fixture that needs pipes moved. A burst pipe or sewage backing up is an emergency; shut off the main water valve and call.

Replacing a faucet cartridge or clearing a sink trap is well within DIY.

What Do Plumbing & Water Services Pros Do?

Plumbers diagnose leaks and blockages, repair or replace pipe, install and service water heaters and fixtures, clear and camera-inspect drain lines, and bring systems up to code. Work that moves or adds supply or drain lines generally needs a permit and an inspection.

Jobs Plumbing & Water Services pros list most

Before you hire

  • A plumbing licence - most states license plumbers, often at apprentice, journeyman and master levels.
  • Insurance, and whether they pull permits for work that needs them.
  • How they charge: flat rate per job, or hourly plus a trip fee.
  • Emergency and after-hours rates before you need them.
  • Warranty on parts and labour.

What moves the price

  • Access - pipes behind finished walls or under slabs cost more to reach.
  • Emergency and after-hours calls.
  • Fixture and water heater choice: tank against tankless, standard against high-efficiency.
  • Permits and any code upgrades an inspector requires.

Plumbing & Water Services: common questions

Tank or tankless water heater?

Tankless units heat on demand and take less space, but cost more to install and may need gas line or electrical upgrades. Tank heaters cost less up front and are simpler to replace. A plumber can size either for your household.

What is a sewer camera inspection?

A camera run through the drain line to find roots, breaks, sags or blockages. It is worth doing before buying an older house and before paying for a major sewer repair.

Why is my water pressure low?

Common causes include a partly closed valve, a failing pressure regulator, mineral build-up in fixtures, hidden leaks, or corroded pipe. A plumber can test pressure at the main and narrow it down.
