Have questions about plumbing in Skowhegan? We have answers.
Chemical drain cleaners can damage older pipes in Skowhegan 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.
Signs of a slab leak in Skowhegan 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.
Your main water shutoff valve in Skowhegan 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.
Most Skowhegan homeowners benefit from professional drain cleaning every 1 to 2 years as preventive maintenance.

Magnet Plumbing uses hydro-jetting and snaking to thoroughly clear all drain types.
Trenchless sewer repair in Skowhegan replaces damaged sewer lines using pipe lining or pipe bursting methods — without digging up your yard, driveway, or landscaping.
