  • How much do plumbing services typically cost?

    Plumbing service costs vary based on the job's nature, complexity, and required materials. Minor repairs like fixing leaks or unclogging drains are generally less expensive than major projects such as water heater replacements or sewer line work. For accurate pricing, we recommend contacting our team. Our representatives will explain your options, address your questions, and arrange an inspection with a licensed technician. Following the inspection, you'll receive a transparent, no-obligation quote, ensuring you're fully informed before any work commences.

  • What is the difference between drain cleaning and drain clearing?

    While both drain clearing and cleaning address pipe debris, they differ in scope and purpose. Drain clearing is a quick fix to remove immediate blockages using tools like plungers or snakes, restoring water flow but not preventing future clogs. Drain cleaning, however, is a comprehensive service that not only removes blockages but also cleans pipe interiors, eliminating buildup like grease and mineral deposits. It often involves video inspections and hydro jetting, maintaining healthier plumbing systems long-term. For guidance on which service you need, we invite you to contact McHugh's Plumbing Inc.

  • How often should the main sewer line be cleaned?

    We recommend cleaning main sewer lines every 12 to 24 months. However, factors such as pipe type, system age, and nearby tree roots may necessitate more frequent cleanings.

  • Can I install a sump pump myself?

    Self-installation of a sump pump is not advisable unless you possess both plumbing and electrical expertise. While DIY projects can be suitable for minor renovations, tasks involving home services can lead to significant issues if not done correctly. We strongly recommend professional sump pump installation to ensure proper sizing, drainage, and compliance with local codes.
