Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about plumbing in Athens? We have answers.

How do I shut off my water in a plumbing emergency in Athens?

Your main water shutoff valve in Athens 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.

How often should I have my drains cleaned in Athens?

Most Athens 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 Athens. Magnet Plumbing uses hydro-jetting and snaking to thoroughly clear all drain types.

What plumbing emergencies require immediate service in Athens?

Burst pipes, gas leaks, sewer backups, and flooding all require immediate emergency plumbing response in Athens. 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 Athens and surrounding Texas communities.

What is trenchless sewer repair and is it right for my Athens home?

Trenchless sewer repair in Athens 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.

How do I prevent frozen pipes in Athens, TX?

To prevent frozen pipes in Athens, 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.

Does homeowners insurance cover plumbing repairs in Athens, TX?

In Athens, homeowners insurance typically covers sudden and accidental plumbing damage such as a burst pipe flooding your home. The cost of repairing the pipe itself may not be covered, but the resulting water damage often is. Gradual leaks and corrosion from neglected maintenance are usually excluded. Call (844) 618-0753 if you need documentation for a claim.

What Our Customers Say

Real reviews from homeowners we have served across the country.

★★★★★

"Been meaning to write this for a while. Our sewer line collapsed and we had three quotes — two wanted to dig up the whole yard, Magnet recommended trenchless. They finished in two days, no damage to the lawn, and the price came in thousands under the other guys. The Magnet team knows what they are doing and I will not hesitate to call them again."

— Brandon T.
★★★★★

"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!"

— Baxter B.
★★★★★

"Our older boiler was making banging noises and losing pressure. The technician diagnosed a failed expansion tank, replaced it, and the system has been silent ever since. Reasonable rate and quick turnaround."

— Miguel F.
