Every plumbing service you need, delivered by licensed professionals who know the New Bedford area.

Toilet Repair

Reliable toilet repair and installation for running toilets, phantom flushes, rocking toilets, weak flushes, and leaking seals. We diagnose the root cause and repair or replace components quickly and affordably.

Sump Pump Repair

A failing sump pump during heavy rain can flood your basement in minutes. Our licensed plumbers respond quickly to repair or replace failed pumps, restore drainage, and protect your property from water damage.

Water Heater Repair

No hot water? Our licensed plumbers diagnose and repair water heater problems on the first visit whenever possible. We service all major tank and tankless brands and carry common repair parts on our service vehicles.

Water Line Repair

Professional water line repair and replacement for main supply lines and service connections. We diagnose breaks, corrosion, and leaks, then perform durable repairs or full replacements using quality materials.

Repiping

Professional repiping services using PEX, copper, or CPVC pipe matched to your home's needs. We complete most whole-home repipes in 1 to 3 days with minimal drywall damage and full pressure testing at completion.

Gas Leak Detection

Professional gas leak detection using calibrated detectors and pressure testing to find leaks in gas lines, connections, appliances, and meters. We locate the leak source precisely and recommend repairs immediately.

Boiler Repair

Professional boiler repair for banging noises, lost pressure, pilot failures, and circulation problems. We service atmospheric, condensing, and high-efficiency units — including expansion tanks and circulator pumps.

Gas Line Repair

Professional gas line repair performed by licensed plumbers who understand gas system safety. We find the leak, repair or replace the damaged section, and pressure test the line before restoring gas service.

Pipe Repair

Reliable pipe repair throughout your home — from pinhole leaks in copper supply lines to cracked drain pipes and corroded fittings. We diagnose the root cause and fix the problem at the source.

Trenchless Sewer Repair

Professional trenchless sewer line repair for cracks, offsets, and root intrusion. Pipe lining creates a new pipe within the old one, while pipe bursting pulls a new pipe through to replace the failed line completely.

Grease Trap Cleaning

Professional grease trap cleaning for commercial kitchens of all sizes. Reliable schedules, full compliance paperwork, and a clean trap every time — keeping your operation running and inspection-ready.

Slab Leak Repair

Slab leaks are hidden under your concrete foundation and can cause thousands in damage if left untreated. Our licensed plumbers locate and repair slab leaks quickly with minimal disruption to your home.

Sewer Camera Inspection

Video sewer inspection reveals exactly what is happening inside your sewer line — no guesswork, no unnecessary excavation. Essential for pre-purchase inspections and diagnosing recurring sewer problems.

Professional drain cleaning using hydro-jetting and snaking to clear slow and clogged drains throughout your home. We remove grease, hair, roots, and mineral buildup — restoring full flow and preventing backups.

Garbage Disposal

Professional garbage disposal installation and repair. We handle electrical connections, mounting flange replacement, and drain line connections for reliable, leak-free kitchen sink drainage.

Professional backflow prevention testing and device installation. Our certified plumbers service residential and commercial properties, protecting your potable water supply from contamination.

Water Heater Replacement

Professional water heater replacement for tank, tankless, and hybrid models. We match the right unit to your household needs and install it with all required connections, expansion tanks, and safety components.

Hydro Jetting

Commercial and residential hydro jetting for persistent drain and sewer problems. We use calibrated pressure and nozzle selection for your specific line type, delivering a thorough clean without damaging pipes.

Sewer Line Repair

Sewer line problems cause backups, odors, and potential health hazards. Our plumbers use video cameras to inspect the line, identify the damage, and repair or reline the pipe — often without full excavation.

Faucet Repair

Professional faucet repair and installation that eliminates drips, leaks, and stiff handles. We carry common repair parts on our trucks for same-visit repairs on most faucet brands, plus full installations of new fixtures.

Tankless Water Heater Installation

Tankless water heater installation for endless hot water without standby energy loss. We size, install, and commission all major tankless brands — and convert tank systems to more efficient tankless setups.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about plumbing in New Bedford? We have answers.

What plumbing emergencies require immediate service in New Bedford?

Burst pipes, gas leaks, sewer backups, and flooding all require immediate emergency plumbing response in New Bedford. A burst pipe can release hundreds of gallons per hour, and gas leaks pose fire and explosion risks. Magnet Plumbing provides 24/7 emergency plumbing service throughout New Bedford and surrounding Massachusetts communities.

Does homeowners insurance cover plumbing repairs in New Bedford, MA?

In New Bedford, homeowners insurance typically covers sudden and accidental plumbing damage such as a burst pipe flooding your home. The cost of repairing the pipe itself may not be covered, but the resulting water damage often is. Gradual leaks and corrosion from neglected maintenance are usually excluded. Call (844) 618-0753 if you need documentation for a claim.

How much does a plumber cost in New Bedford, MA?

Plumber rates in New Bedford typically range from $100 to $250 per hour depending on the type of work and time of day. Common jobs like drain cleaning run $150 to $300, while slab leak repair and repiping projects cost significantly more. Magnet Plumbing provides free estimates so you know the full cost before any work begins.

How do I prevent frozen pipes in New Bedford, MA?

To prevent frozen pipes in New Bedford, insulate exposed pipes in unheated areas like garages, crawl spaces, and attics. Keep cabinet doors under sinks open during cold snaps. Let faucets drip slightly during freezing temperatures. If a pipe does freeze, call Magnet Plumbing immediately rather than attempting to thaw it yourself to avoid a burst.

How do I shut off my water in a plumbing emergency in New Bedford?

Your main water shutoff valve in New Bedford is typically located near the water meter, near the front foundation, or in the basement or utility room. Turn the valve clockwise to close it. If you cannot find your shutoff or it is stuck, call Magnet Plumbing immediately — our emergency crew can help locate and operate the valve to stop water damage.

What should I do if I smell gas in my New Bedford home?

If you smell gas in your New Bedford home, do not operate any electrical switches, open flames, or appliances. Leave the building immediately, leaving doors open as you go. Call your gas utility from outside or from a neighbor, then call Magnet Plumbing for emergency gas line inspection. Do not re-enter until a professional has cleared the property.
