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.

Gas Leak Detection

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 repiping services using PEX, copper, or CPVC pipe matched to your home's needs. We complete most whole-home repipes in 1 to 3 days with minimal drywall damage and full pressure testing at completion.

Drain Cleaning

Clogged drains slow your life down. Our licensed plumbers clear kitchen drains, bathroom drains, main sewer lines, and floor drains using professional hydro-jetting equipment that cleans the entire pipe interior.

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.

Trenchless sewer repair replaces damaged sewer lines without digging up your yard, driveway, or landscaping. We use pipe lining and pipe bursting methods to save time, money, and the mess of conventional excavation.

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.

Sewer Camera Inspection

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.

Gas Line Repair

Professional gas line repair performed by licensed plumbers who understand gas system safety. We find the leak, repair or replace the damaged section, and pressure test the line before restoring gas service.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about plumbing in Shaw? We have answers.

How much does a plumber cost in Shaw, DC?

Plumber rates in Shaw 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.

Does homeowners insurance cover plumbing repairs in Shaw, DC?

In Shaw, 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 plumbing emergencies require immediate service in Shaw?

Burst pipes, gas leaks, sewer backups, and flooding all require immediate emergency plumbing response in Shaw. 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 Shaw and surrounding District of Columbia communities.

What should I do if I smell gas in my Shaw home?

If you smell gas in your Shaw 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 shut off my water in a plumbing emergency in Shaw?

Your main water shutoff valve in Shaw 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.

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

Chemical drain cleaners can damage older pipes in Shaw 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.

What Our Customers Say

★★★★★

"I never gush over crew, but this company saved us. Plumbing back-ups are a non-starter for most days but on a Friday panic call, Saul picked up and was there first thing. He problem solves. Saul and his team are undeniably the most professional plumbing team I have ever hired. On time, reasonable rate, professional work and communication, great personalities, and they cleaned up when done."

★★★★★

"Magnet Plumbing fixed a leaky kitchen faucet and installed a new toilet in the master bath on the same visit. They were in and out in a few hours and cleaned up everything before they left. Will absolutely use them again."

— Jessica R.
★★★★★

"Replaced two old toilets with new comfort-height models. The installer was respectful, took his shoes off at the door, and hauled away the old toilets. Small things that make a big difference."

— Yolanda B.
