Answers to the most frequently asked plumbing questions from Lowes Island homeowners.
Chemical drain cleaners can damage older pipes in Lowes Island homes, especially PVC, brass, or aging galvanized plumbing.

A professional drain cleaning by Magnet Plumbing is safer, more effective, and prevents pipe damage — costing less in the long run.
Burst pipes, gas leaks, sewer backups, and flooding all require immediate emergency plumbing response in Lowes Island. A burst pipe can release hundreds of gallons per hour, and gas leaks pose fire and explosion risks.
