Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about plumbing services in Covington, KY.

When should I replace my water heater in Covington, KY?

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 Covington homeowners decide between repair and replacement.

How do I prevent frozen pipes in Covington, KY?

To prevent frozen pipes in Covington, 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.

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

Your main water shutoff valve in Covington 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 do I find a licensed plumber in Covington, KY?

When hiring a plumber in Covington, always verify their KY license and insurance. A licensed plumber must pass state examinations and carry liability coverage that protects your property. Magnet Plumbing employs licensed, background-checked plumbers throughout Kentucky — call (844) 618-0753 to schedule service or get a free estimate.

How can I tell if I have a slab leak in my Covington home?

Signs of a slab leak in Covington homes include unexplained increases in your water bill, warm or wet spots on the floor, the sound of running water when all fixtures are off, cracks in the foundation or walls, and low water pressure. If you notice these symptoms, call a plumber for professional slab leak detection before the damage worsens.

Is it safe to use chemical drain cleaners in my Covington home?

Chemical drain cleaners can damage older pipes in Covington 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.
