Your local plumbing experts in Oakland, ME. From emergency response to full repiping, we handle it all.
Our licensed Maine plumbers provide a complete range of plumbing services for Oakland homeowners and businesses.
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.
Professional sump pump repair for residential and commercial properties. We diagnose electrical, mechanical, and float switch failures and return your pump to full working order with quality replacement parts.
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.
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.
Professional slab leak repair from detection through restoration. We use acoustic listening devices and thermal cameras to find the leak precisely, then repair or reroute the line to solve the problem permanently.
Expert water line repair using trenchless and conventional methods. We locate the break, recommend the most cost-effective repair approach, and restore your water service with minimal disruption to your property.
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.
Professional commercial plumbing services for all business types. From emergency repairs that keep your doors open to scheduled maintenance that prevents downtime, we protect your business operations.
Plumbing emergencies happen day and night. Our 24/7 emergency plumbers arrive quickly with the tools and materials to handle any urgent plumbing situation — protecting your property and restoring service fast.
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.
When snaking is not enough, hydro jetting clears the pipe completely. Our professional jetters use pressurized water to blast away grease, scale, and root intrusion — restoring full pipe capacity for years.
If your home suffers from frequent leaks, low pressure, or discolored water, repiping may be the solution. We replace your entire water supply system with modern pipe materials and restore full pressure and water quality.
Annual backflow testing and prevention device installation for residential and commercial properties. Our certified testers verify your backflow preventer and handle compliance paperwork with your water authority.

Answers to the most frequently asked plumbing questions from Oakland homeowners.
Your main water shutoff valve in Oakland 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.
Simple repairs like faucet replacement, toilet repair, or drain clearing in Oakland often take 1 to 2 hours. More complex jobs like slab leak repair, water line replacement, or water heater installation typically take a half to a full day. Whole-home repiping can take 2 to 4 days. Magnet Plumbing provides a clear time estimate before starting any job.
To prevent frozen pipes in Oakland, 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.
Chemical drain cleaners can damage older pipes in Oakland homes, especially PVC, brass, or aging galvanized plumbing. The caustic chemicals can eat through pipe walls over time and are hazardous if they splash on skin or eyes. A professional drain cleaning by Magnet Plumbing is safer, more effective, and prevents pipe damage — costing less in the long run.
Signs of a slab leak in Oakland homes include unexplained increases in your water bill, warm or wet spots on the floor, the sound of running water when all fixtures are off, cracks in the foundation or walls, and low water pressure. If you notice these symptoms, call a plumber for professional slab leak detection before the damage worsens.
Most Oakland homeowners benefit from professional drain cleaning every 1 to 2 years as preventive maintenance. Homes with large families, frequent cooking, or older plumbing may need service more often. Tree roots, grease buildup, and hair are the most common causes of drain problems in Oakland. Magnet Plumbing uses hydro-jetting and snaking to thoroughly clear all drain types.
