Our Plumbing Services in Glen Carbon

Comprehensive plumbing solutions tailored to Glen Carbon properties. Click any service to learn more.

Sewer Camera Inspection

Professional sewer camera inspection to diagnose blockages, root intrusion, cracks, offsets, and collapse. We show you the video so you can see the problem and make informed decisions about repairs.

Sump Pump Repair

A failing sump pump during heavy rain can flood your basement in minutes. Our licensed plumbers respond quickly to repair or replace failed pumps, restore drainage, and protect your property from water damage.

Water Line Repair

Expert water line repair using trenchless and conventional methods. We locate the break, recommend the most cost-effective repair approach, and restore your water service with minimal disruption to your property.

Emergency Plumber

Around-the-clock emergency plumbing for burst pipes, slab leaks, sewer backups, gas leaks, and water heater failures. Our licensed emergency plumbers respond fast to stop damage and restore your plumbing.

Backflow Testing

Backflow testing is required annually in many jurisdictions. We test your preventer, document the results, and submit paperwork to your local water authority — keeping you in compliance and your drinking water safe.

Boiler Repair

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.

Drain Cleaning

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.

Gas Line Repair

Licensed gas line repair for natural gas and propane systems. We use pressure testing and calibrated gas detectors to locate leaks and perform safe, code-compliant repairs to restore your gas service.

Pipe Repair

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.

Trenchless Sewer Repair

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.

Slab Leak Repair

Expert slab leak detection and repair using electronic sensors and thermal imaging to pinpoint leaks under your foundation. We perform minimally invasive repairs to protect your structure and stop water waste.

Commercial Plumbing

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.

Water Heater Repair

Fast water heater repair for tank and tankless units. We diagnose and fix pilot light failures, thermostat issues, heating element problems, pressure relief valve malfunctions, and sediment buildup quickly.

Gas Leak Detection

Accurate gas leak detection before small leaks become emergencies. We test your entire gas system using professional detection equipment and pressure gauges, identify any leaks, and perform safe code-compliant repairs.

Hydro Jetting

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.

Faucet Repair

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.

Water Heater Replacement

Professional water heater replacement for tank, tankless, and hybrid models. We match the right unit to your household needs and install it with all required connections, expansion tanks, and safety components.

Leak Detection

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.

Sump Pump Installation

Professional sump pump installation for new construction and pump replacements. We handle the pit setup, discharge line routing, electrical connections, and test the completed installation under load.

Tankless Water Heater Installation

Tankless water heater installation for endless hot water without standby energy loss. We size, install, and commission all major tankless brands — and convert tank systems to more efficient tankless setups.

Grease Trap Cleaning

Grease trap maintenance keeps your kitchen drains flowing and your business compliant with local waste regulations. We provide scheduled pumping, manifesting, and inspection-ready documentation.

Toilet Repair

Reliable toilet repair and installation for running toilets, phantom flushes, rocking toilets, weak flushes, and leaking seals. We diagnose the root cause and repair or replace components quickly and affordably.

Sewer Line Repair

Professional sewer line repair that diagnoses the actual problem before recommending solutions. Camera inspection shows us exactly what is wrong so we can perform the least invasive, most cost-effective repair.

Repiping

If your home suffers from frequent leaks, low pressure, or discolored water, repiping may be the solution. We replace your entire water supply system with modern pipe materials and restore full pressure and water quality.

Garbage Disposal

Garbage disposal repair, replacement, and installation for kitchen sinks. We fix jammed, leaking, and failed units — or install new disposals with proper P-trap and dishwasher connections.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about plumbing in Glen Carbon? We have answers.

What plumbing emergencies require immediate service in Glen Carbon?

Burst pipes, gas leaks, sewer backups, and flooding all require immediate emergency plumbing response in Glen Carbon. 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 Glen Carbon and surrounding Illinois communities.

What should I do if I smell gas in my Glen Carbon home?

If you smell gas in your Glen Carbon home, do not operate any electrical switches, open flames, or appliances. Leave the building immediately, leaving doors open as you go. Call your gas utility from outside or from a neighbor, then call Magnet Plumbing for emergency gas line inspection. Do not re-enter until a professional has cleared the property.

How do I prevent frozen pipes in Glen Carbon, IL?

To prevent frozen pipes in Glen Carbon, 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.

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

Trenchless sewer repair in Glen Carbon 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 shut off my water in a plumbing emergency in Glen Carbon?

Your main water shutoff valve in Glen Carbon 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.

When should I replace my water heater in Glen Carbon, IL?

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 Glen Carbon homeowners decide between repair and replacement.
