Common questions about plumbing services in Markham, IL.
Trenchless sewer repair in Markham replaces damaged sewer lines using pipe lining or pipe bursting methods — without digging up your yard, driveway, or landscaping. It works for most sewer line problems including cracks, root intrusion, and offset joints. Magnet Plumbing uses camera inspection to confirm trenchless repair is the right approach for your specific line condition.
If you smell gas in your Markham 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.
Your main water shutoff valve in Markham 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.
Plumber rates in Markham typically range from $100 to $250 per hour depending on the type of work and time of day. Common jobs like drain cleaning run $150 to $300, while slab leak repair and repiping projects cost significantly more. Magnet Plumbing provides free estimates so you know the full cost before any work begins.
Chemical drain cleaners can damage older pipes in Markham homes, especially PVC, brass, or aging galvanized plumbing. The caustic chemicals can eat through pipe walls over time and are hazardous if they splash on skin or eyes. A professional drain cleaning by Magnet Plumbing is safer, more effective, and prevents pipe damage — costing less in the long run.
To prevent frozen pipes in Markham, 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.
Our reputation is built on results. Here is what our customers say.
"Called Magnet Plumbing when our old 40-gallon tank started leaking. They came out the same day, gave me a fair quote on a tankless replacement, and had it running by end of day. Could not be happier with the work or the price."
"They are the best. They come when they say they will, fair pricing, are attentive to detail, protect the floors, are friendly and professional. Very different from plumbers we have used in the past. Thank you Saul!"
"Bought a new house and had a pre-purchase sewer camera inspection done. The plumber walked me through the footage and pointed out one section that would need attention in a few years. Honest assessment, no upsell pressure."
