Answers to the most frequently asked plumbing questions from Cornelius homeowners.
Burst pipes, gas leaks, sewer backups, and flooding all require immediate emergency plumbing response in Cornelius. 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 Cornelius and surrounding North Carolina communities.
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 Cornelius homeowners decide between repair and replacement.
Your main water shutoff valve in Cornelius 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.
Most Cornelius 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 Cornelius. Magnet Plumbing uses hydro-jetting and snaking to thoroughly clear all drain types.
To prevent frozen pipes in Cornelius, 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.
Low water pressure in Cornelius homes is often caused by mineral deposits clogging aerators and pipes, a partially closed shutoff valve, a failing pressure regulator, or a hidden water line leak. Corroded or deteriorated pipes in older Cornelius properties can also restrict flow significantly. A licensed plumber can diagnose the specific cause and recommend the right fix.
Honest feedback from homeowners who trusted Magnet Plumbing with their plumbing projects.
"Saul and his team showed up on time and worked quickly to resolve our issue. They were able to quickly replace the old water heater with a new unit. They left the area cleaner than it was originally. We finally have hot water again! Pricing was fair, service was exceptional."
"Smelled gas in the basement late at night and called the emergency line. A plumber was dispatched within the hour, located the leak at a corroded fitting on the water heater gas line, and repaired it on the spot. They even came back the next day to re-verify with the gas detector. Truly appreciated the care taken."
"Installed a new garbage disposal and replaced the old P-trap. Cleaned up everything before leaving. Very professional."
