Our Plumbing Services in East Cambridge

Our licensed Massachusetts plumbers provide a complete range of plumbing services for East Cambridge homeowners and businesses.

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.

Sump Pump Repair

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.

Water Line Repair

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.

Slab Leak Repair

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.

Hydro Jetting

When snaking is not enough, hydro jetting clears the pipe completely. Our professional jetters use pressurized water to blast away grease, scale, and root intrusion — restoring full pipe capacity for years.

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.

Backflow Testing

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.

Water Heater Repair

Expert water heater repair that restores your hot water fast. From faulty thermostats and pilot light issues to anode rod replacement and sediment flushing, we fix the problem at the source for lasting results.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Emergency Plumber

Plumbing emergencies happen day and night. Our 24/7 emergency plumbers arrive quickly with the tools and materials to handle any urgent plumbing situation — protecting your property and restoring service fast.

Pipe Repair

Professional pipe repair for leaks, corrosion, and breaks in supply lines, drain lines, and waste pipes. Our licensed plumbers diagnose the cause and perform lasting repairs using quality materials.

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.

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.

Sump Pump Installation

Protect your basement before the next storm. Our plumbers install sump pumps with float switches, check valves, and battery backup systems — ready to keep groundwater out of your home reliably.

Water Heater Replacement

When your water heater reaches the end of its life, we make replacement easy. Our plumbers handle everything — disconnection, removal, installation, and final testing — so you have reliable hot water again fast.

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.

Sewer Line Repair

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.

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.

Garbage Disposal

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.

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.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about plumbing in East Cambridge? We have answers.

What is trenchless sewer repair and is it right for my East Cambridge home?

Trenchless sewer repair in East Cambridge 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.

When should I replace my water heater in East Cambridge, MA?

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 East Cambridge homeowners decide between repair and replacement.

How do I prevent frozen pipes in East Cambridge, MA?

To prevent frozen pipes in East Cambridge, 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.

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

Chemical drain cleaners can damage older pipes in East Cambridge 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.

How do I find a licensed plumber in East Cambridge, MA?

When hiring a plumber in East Cambridge, always verify their MA license and insurance. A licensed plumber must pass state examinations and carry liability coverage that protects your property. Magnet Plumbing employs licensed, background-checked plumbers throughout Massachusetts — call (844) 618-0753 to schedule service or get a free estimate.

How do I shut off my water in a plumbing emergency in East Cambridge?

Your main water shutoff valve in East Cambridge 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.

What Our Customers Say

★★★★★

"We noticed our water bill doubling month over month and could not find anything visible. These guys came out with the leak detection equipment and located a slab leak under the living room in about thirty minutes. The repair was minimally invasive — small access cut, patched afterward, and the bill is back to normal. Really impressed with the professionalism."

— Derek M.
★★★★★

"Bought a new house and had a pre-purchase sewer camera inspection done. The plumber walked me through the footage and pointed out one section that would need attention in a few years. Honest assessment, no upsell pressure."

— Eric T.
★★★★★
