Every plumbing service you need, delivered by licensed professionals who know the Essex area.
Upgrade to on-demand hot water with professional tankless water heater installation. Our plumbers assess household demand, recommend the right model, and install with all required gas or electrical connections.
Gas leaks are a serious safety hazard. Our licensed plumbers use professional gas detection equipment to find leaks in supply lines, fittings, appliances, and meters — and recommend immediate repairs to protect your family.
Professional boiler repair for banging noises, lost pressure, pilot failures, and circulation problems. We service atmospheric, condensing, and high-efficiency units — including expansion tanks and circulator pumps.
Professional slab leak repair from detection through restoration. We use acoustic listening devices and thermal cameras to find the leak precisely, then repair or reroute the line to solve the problem permanently.
Professional faucet repair and installation that eliminates drips, leaks, and stiff handles. We carry common repair parts on our trucks for same-visit repairs on most faucet brands, plus full installations of new fixtures.
No hot water? Our licensed plumbers diagnose and repair water heater problems on the first visit whenever possible. We service all major tank and tankless brands and carry common repair parts on our service vehicles.
Video sewer inspection reveals exactly what is happening inside your sewer line — no guesswork, no unnecessary excavation. Essential for pre-purchase inspections and diagnosing recurring sewer problems.
Professional water line repair and replacement for main supply lines and service connections. We diagnose breaks, corrosion, and leaks, then perform durable repairs or full replacements using quality materials.
When your garbage disposal jams, leaks, or stops working, our plumbers diagnose the problem fast. We repair what makes sense and replace units that are beyond repair with quality new disposals.
Professional trenchless sewer line repair for cracks, offsets, and root intrusion. Pipe lining creates a new pipe within the old one, while pipe bursting pulls a new pipe through to replace the failed line completely.
Regular grease trap cleaning for restaurants and food service operations. We pump and scrape grease traps on schedule and handle compliance documentation for health department inspections.
When a plumbing crisis hits, you need a licensed plumber immediately. We answer emergency calls around the clock and dispatch crews fast — stopping leaks, restoring water service, and preventing further damage.
Expert pipe repair for residential and commercial properties. We locate leaks and damage accurately, perform durable repairs, and pressure test the system to confirm everything holds before leaving.
Thorough drain cleaning that goes beyond surface blockages. We use video inspection and high-pressure water jetting to clear obstructions completely, leaving your drains flowing freely and reducing future buildup.
Water heater replacement with same-day or next-day installation in most areas. We remove your old unit, recommend the right size and model for your needs, and install your new water heater to code.
Professional sump pump repair for residential and commercial properties. We diagnose electrical, mechanical, and float switch failures and return your pump to full working order with quality replacement parts.
Whole-home and partial repiping to replace aging galvanized, polybutylene, or deteriorated pipes with modern long-lasting materials. Repiping eliminates chronic leaks, low pressure, and discolored water permanently.
Gas line leaks demand immediate professional attention. Our licensed plumbers diagnose and repair gas line failures safely, using proper materials and testing to ensure your gas system is secure and code-compliant.
Sump pump installation and replacement for basements and crawl spaces prone to flooding. We size the right pump, install primary and battery-backup units, and ensure reliable operation before every rainy season.
Commercial and residential hydro jetting for persistent drain and sewer problems. We use calibrated pressure and nozzle selection for your specific line type, delivering a thorough clean without damaging pipes.
Sewer line repair and replacement for cracked, collapsed, root-infiltrated, and offset pipes. We use camera inspection to diagnose the problem and recommend spot repairs, pipe lining, or full replacement.
A running or leaking toilet wastes thousands of gallons and drives up your water bill. Our plumbers fix flappers, fill valves, wax rings, flush handles, and other toilet components — or install new toilets.
Advanced leak detection using thermal imaging, electronic sensors, and pressure testing to find hidden leaks in walls, floors, and underground. Accurate detection prevents costly water damage and unnecessary demolition.
Commercial plumbing needs are different from residential. Our plumbers understand backflow requirements, floor drain regulations, grease trap compliance, and the scheduling demands of active business operations.
Annual backflow testing and prevention device installation for residential and commercial properties. Our certified testers verify your backflow preventer and handle compliance paperwork with your water authority.

Have questions about plumbing in Essex? We have answers.
Plumber rates in Essex typically range from $100 to $250 per hour depending on the type of work and time of day.

Simple repairs like faucet replacement, toilet repair, or drain clearing in Essex often take 1 to 2 hours. More complex jobs like slab leak repair, water line replacement, or water heater installation typically take a half to a full day. Whole-home repiping can take 2 to 4 days. Magnet Plumbing provides a clear time estimate before starting any job.
To prevent frozen pipes in Essex, 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 Essex 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 Essex. Magnet Plumbing uses hydro-jetting and snaking to thoroughly clear all drain types.
Burst pipes, gas leaks, sewer backups, and flooding all require immediate emergency plumbing response in Essex. 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 Essex and surrounding Maryland communities.
Chemical drain cleaners can damage older pipes in Essex 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.
Real reviews from homeowners we have served across the country.
"Called Magnet Plumbing when our old 40-gallon tank started leaking. They came out the same day, gave me a fair quote on a tankless replacement, and had it running by end of day. Could not be happier with the work or the price."
"Had a new tankless water heater installed and could not be happier. The plumbers were punctual, clean, and walked me through the warranty and maintenance before leaving. Highly recommend for any water heater project."
"Magnet repiped our entire house last month. Clean install, finished a day ahead of schedule, and they respected our home the whole time. Worth every penny."
