Answers to the most frequently asked plumbing questions from Merrillville homeowners.
Burst pipes, gas leaks, sewer backups, and flooding all require immediate emergency plumbing response in Merrillville. 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 Merrillville and surrounding Indiana communities.
Your main water shutoff valve in Merrillville 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 Merrillville, 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 Merrillville 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 Merrillville. Magnet Plumbing uses hydro-jetting and snaking to thoroughly clear all drain types.
Plumber rates in Merrillville 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.
Low water pressure in Merrillville 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 Merrillville properties can also restrict flow significantly. A licensed plumber can diagnose the specific cause and recommend the right fix.
