Answers to the most frequently asked plumbing questions from Chicago Heights homeowners.
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 Chicago Heights homeowners decide between repair and replacement.
Chemical drain cleaners can damage older pipes in Chicago Heights 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.
Your main water shutoff valve in Chicago Heights 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.
To prevent frozen pipes in Chicago Heights, 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.
Plumber rates in Chicago Heights 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.
Most Chicago Heights 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 Chicago Heights. Magnet Plumbing uses hydro-jetting and snaking to thoroughly clear all drain types.
