"Shane traced my problem to overflow of septic tank, and recommended that I have septic tank work done. He did not try to get me to have unecessary plumbing work done. Ben Franklin Plumbing responded with same-day service and sent a skilled plumber who understood my problem and did not try to cash iin by selling me services I didnâ t need. Thanks Shane!"

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

Fixing plumbing prevents water damage, conserves water potentially lost by leaks, and improves home convenience and efficiency.

It is generally not recommended to pour hot or boiling water down a drain to unfreeze pipes due to significant risks. In some cases, the sudden temperature change can cause more ice buildup or produce steam, which increases pressure and could cause the pipe to burst, leading to costly damage and potential burn injuries. While hot water might help with a partially frozen drainpipe, it is unlikely to thaw a completely blocked water pipe further down the system. Additionally, boiling water can damage plastic pipes over time. Safer and more effective methods include using a space heater near the frozen section or applying hot towels directly to the pipe.

Be sure to consider how often you may need access to your pipes in the future. This can help you decide if you want to install a basic PVC backflow preventer or spring for a clear or removable one. 

If you think you’ll need access to your plumbing often, or if your pipes have a history of problems, it’s probably worth spending a little more for something you can look into without removing the backwater preventer.

The cost depends on the parts, labor, extent of damage, and whether extensive plumbing modifications are required. Typical repairs cost $150-$300.

A burst pipe can cause hundreds or even thousands of dollars in damage. It could flood your home, which can destroy many of your belongings. It could also ruin hardwood floors and carpeting, requiring you to replace your flooring. Finally, mold and mildew form very quickly after high levels of moisture have been introduced to a space; this is not only costly to remove but also bad for your health.
