Q: How much does an emergency plumber cost?

• <div><p>Emergency plumbers charge a significantly higher rate than for standard service, typically 1.5 to 3 times the normal hourly cost. You can expect to pay between $100 and $500 per hour, with an average of around $200 per hour. In addition to the higher hourly rate, many plumbers charge a flat emergency service or trip fee, which can be between $150 and $300. The final cost depends on the timing of the call; prices are highest for major holidays, followed by weekends and after-hours service on weekdays. For a complex job on a major holiday, a master plumber's rate could reach as high as $600 per hour.</p></div>

Q: Can I still use an outdoor faucet during freezing winter temperatures?

• <div><p>While it&rsquo;s possible to use an outdoor faucet in the winter, it might not be the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/water-lawn-hot-weather.htm">best time to water your grass</a>. Drawing water to your outdoor faucet increases the risk of that water freezing when you&rsquo;re done with the faucet, especially if you don&rsquo;t take the time to re-winterize your faucet. There are heated hose products you can buy to use in winter, but these can cost hundreds of dollars. It may be best to simply wait for the weather to warm up again.</p></div>

Q: Will a toilet leak if bolts are loose?

• <div><p>If a bolt at the bottom of your toilet tank is loose, it can directly cause a leak. If a bolt securing the toilet base to the floor is loose, it won&rsquo;t directly cause a leak but can lead to the same result over time. That&rsquo;s because the loose bolts will eventually move the wax seal or cause cracks in the bowl from the toilet being wobbly. </p></div>

Q: Where should a washing machine drain to?

• <div><p>A washing machine should drain the water used during its cycle through a drainpipe and out through the house&rsquo;s plumbing. This is the same plumbing that sinks and shower drains run to, and if the U-bend is installed correctly, it shouldn&rsquo;t smell. The total drainage from the house is then integrated into the city sewer system or, if you&rsquo;re in the country, dispersed into a septic tank. </p></div>

Q: How far can a dishwasher be from the sink?

• <div><p>Local plumbing codes and manufacturer recommendations typically dictate the minimum distance between a sink and a dishwasher. This is generally 18 to 24 inches, providing enough room for easy loading and unloading of dishes without hindering the sink's function. Maintaining this separation not only adds convenience but also reduces the chances of water damage and optimizes plumbing connections.</p></div>

"What an Amazing Company!! I had a Major Plumbing Issue after my son knocked the top off the toilet and busted the pipe that connects the water in to the wall. I got on Angie List and found Free Emergency Plumber.Com and within a half hour they were at my house. Not only did they fix the leak and the pipe for FREE, but the technician was also able to assist me in getting my house dried out (slightly flooded three or four rooms)! The guys at Free Emergency Plumber.Com even helped when dealing with my insurance company. Start to finish they handled just about everything for me, all I had to do was sit back and let them work. Amazing company, Amazing people, I highly recommend Free Emergency Plumber.Com."

"Jeff (the owner) came by to assess a crack I had seen in my foundation. He told me that it wasn't actually a crack in the foundation but a crack in some superficial cement that was smeared over the actual foundation and is just a cosmetic problem that doesn't need to be dealt with. He gave me some advice and recommendations for some gutter work and didn't charge me a dime.
I really do appreciate the honesty because I really hate getting a sales pitch. I'd recommend this company to anyone who is looking for someone to give an honest assessment and I trust them to do honest work if I ever need it in the future
