Plumbing Services FAQ
Everything homeowners ask before hiring a plumber — answered clearly.
1What plumbing services do plumbers offer?
Licensed plumbers offer a wide range of services including emergency repairs, drain cleaning, water heater installation and repair, sewer line inspection and replacement, leak detection, gas line work, pipe replacement (repiping), fixture installation, sump pump services, and water softener installation. The scope of work depends on the plumber's license class — a master plumber can handle everything from new construction rough-in to complex gas line work.
2What is the most common plumbing repair?
The most common residential plumbing repairs are clogged or slow drains, leaking faucets, running toilets, and water heater issues. Drain clogs are the single most frequently reported plumbing service call across all household types. A professional drain cleaning typically costs $100–$500 depending on severity and method (snaking vs. hydro-jetting).
3What plumbing work requires a permit?
Permit requirements vary by jurisdiction, but most municipalities require permits for new pipe installation, sewer line replacement, water heater installation, gas line work, repiping, and any plumbing tied to a remodel that changes the existing layout. Emergency repairs to existing fixtures generally do not require a permit. Always ask your plumber whether a permit is required — a licensed plumber will know local code and pull the permit for you.
4What is considered residential plumbing?
Residential plumbing covers all water supply, drain, waste, and vent (DWV) systems inside or serving a single-family home, townhouse, condo, or small multi-family property (typically four units or fewer). This includes water lines from the meter, all interior piping, fixtures (sinks, toilets, showers, tubs), water heaters, sump pumps, and the sewer lateral to the municipal main. Larger commercial or industrial projects fall under commercial plumbing codes.
5How do I find a plumber for a specific service?
Use RateYourPlumber to search by service type and location. Every plumber in our directory has been checked for a valid state license.

Start by selecting your service from the grid above, or search by ZIP code on our Find a Plumber page.
6What is the most expensive plumbing repair?
Full sewer line replacement is typically the most expensive residential plumbing repair, ranging from $3,000 to $25,000 depending on length, depth, access, and method (open-cut vs. trenchless). Full house repiping runs $4,000–$15,000. Water main replacement ($1,500–$5,000) and extensive water damage restoration can also reach high costs. Always get at least three quotes and verify licenses before authorizing major work.
