When should you call a plumber for a clogged drain?

• <div><p>If you try a drain snake and various DIY methods for unclogging drains to no avail, bring in a professional plumber to assess the situation. Also, if multiple drains in your home are backing up or you smell sewage, a visit from a plumber is best. You can expect your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-drain-cleaning-cost.htm">drain cleaning costs</a> to fall around <b>$250</b>, and this can include an assessment of what’s caught in your plumbing and if there’s a larger, underlying problem. You should also consider calling a pro if you need to snake a toilet, as DIYing this could lead to a cracked fixture.</p></div>

How often do pipes need to be checked?

• <div><p>We recommend scheduling routine plumbing inspections once a year for an average house. Older homes may need more frequent inspections, while newer homes might get by with less frequent inspections—every two years. Homes with many mature tree species known for extensive root systems also benefit from more inspections, as roots are a common culprit for cracked sewer and water lines.</p></div>

Is a leaking water pipe an emergency?

• <div><p>If you have a huge leak like a burst pipe, it’s an emergency, and you should call a plumber immediately. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/burst-pipe-repair-cost.htm">Burst pipe repair costs</a> range between <b>$150 and $5,000</b>, depending on the location of the pipe and the severity of the leak.</p><p>On the other hand, more minor leaks can go undetected for a while, which can cause water damage to your cabinets, walls, flooring, or ceiling. So while you don’t need to call it an emergency, you should still worry about a small leak. Get a temporary pipe leak solution in place while you wait for a plumber.</p></div>

Q: Can you set up utilities before closing?

• <div><p>You can start the process to set up utilities before closing on a new current property, but most companies won&rsquo;t turn on electricity or gas until after the closing date. You&rsquo;ll also need proof of ownership to get things going. The best way to do this is to contact the utility company as soon as possible and keep them up to date on the sale status. We recommend making contact one or two weeks before the closing date.</p></div>

Q: How far away can a vent pipe be from the toilet?

• <div><p>According to the Uniform Plumbing Code (UPC), the distance between your trap and the vent should be no more than 6 feet. For your vent to work properly, it needs to feed into the drain line within 6 feet of trapways that connect to it. Using this formula, you should be able to determine whether you will need multiple vent lines.</p></div>
