"Allen and Justin (Blacksburg location) did their work late on a Friday afternoon without any complaints. They were efficient and I felt like they were honest in their assessment and repair advice. They walked me through almost everything and gave advice on how to extend the water heater life."

"This company went above and beyond working to get us water without digging a new well as other companies suggested. I will hire for any and all plumbing I may have in the future because I know they will do the job right and not walk away until completed."

"The Technician (Kevin) is by far the best for any plumbing service we have had. Professional, Courteous, and Very Thorough. Explained everything prior to installation of piping and hose bibbs and valves. Inspected everything and left the area cleaner than when he arrived. Mccarthy has done all of our work since trying a couple of others years past. This household will not go to anybody else but McCarthy now."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

It depends on where the leak is coming from as well as your ability to stop it until a plumber is able to come over and permanently fix the problem. If the leak is under your sink or coming from a drippy showerhead and you can avoid using the fixture until your plumber arrives, this wouldn’t be considered a major issue. If you notice any water damage on your walls or other signs of a major leak, you should call an emergency plumber ASAP.

Depending on the location of the water leak, it could go undetected for weeks, months, or even years in some extreme cases. Most homeowners who have plumbing leaks have slow drips, so you might not see signs of damage until they become severe problems. It’s a good idea to have a plumbing inspection done annually and to take steps yourself to check for leaks, including inspecting your floor, walls, and ceilings for signs of water damage, monitoring your utility bills, and looking for water around appliances and fixtures.

Most homeowners and many renters insurance policies cover the cost of damage from a burst pipe, as it is typically considered a sudden and accidental event. This coverage often includes not only the plumbing repair itself but also the cost to repair or replace other parts of your home damaged by the water, such as drywall and flooring. However, every policy is different, so it is wise to consult your insurance company to understand the specifics of your coverage and any potential out-of-pocket costs.

Bleach isn’t likely to help unclog a sewer line. Bleach isn’t useful in this situation because it won’t dissolve the grime and debris in the clog. Instead, you want to use ingredients that will have a chemical reaction to clear out the buildup, like vinegar or salt and baking soda.

The amount of water wasted when a toilet ghost flushes depends on the cause of the ghost flushing. Leaky flapper valves tend to waste less water than a larger problem like a damaged flush valve that makes the toilet run constantly. Even if you don’t think you’re wasting a lot of water, it’s still a problem that should be fixed quickly.
