From 24/7 emergency response to complete repiping, we handle every plumbing need for homes and businesses in Cape Girardeau, MO.

Sewer Camera Inspection

High-definition sewer camera inspection for residential and commercial properties. Our plumbers document the condition of your sewer line and provide a copy of the footage with our professional assessment.

Trenchless Sewer Repair

Skip the destructive dig. Our trenchless sewer repair methods rehabilitate damaged sewer lines from inside the existing pipe — preserving your landscaping and completing most jobs in a single day.

Sump Pump Installation

Protect your basement before the next storm. Our plumbers install sump pumps with float switches, check valves, and battery backup systems — ready to keep groundwater out of your home reliably.

Faucet Repair

A dripping faucet wastes hundreds of gallons per month. Our licensed plumbers diagnose and repair kitchen, bathroom, and utility faucets of all brands and types — stopping leaks and restoring smooth operation.

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.

Gas Leak Detection

Accurate gas leak detection before small leaks become emergencies. We test your entire gas system using professional detection equipment and pressure gauges, identify any leaks, and perform safe code-compliant repairs.

Hydro Jetting

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.

Commercial Plumbing

Commercial plumbing needs are different from residential. Our plumbers understand backflow requirements, floor drain regulations, grease trap compliance, and the scheduling demands of active business operations.

Drain Cleaning

Thorough drain cleaning that goes beyond surface blockages. We use video inspection and high-pressure water jetting to clear obstructions completely, leaving your drains flowing freely and reducing future buildup.

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.

Toilet Repair

Professional toilet repair and installation. We diagnose running, leaking, rocking, and weak-flushing toilets and restore full performance with quality replacement parts. New installations handled the same way.

Emergency Plumber

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.

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.

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.

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.

Leak Detection

Advanced leak detection using thermal imaging, electronic sensors, and pressure testing to find hidden leaks in walls, floors, and underground. Accurate detection prevents costly water damage and unnecessary demolition.

Garbage Disposal

Garbage disposal repair, replacement, and installation for kitchen sinks. We fix jammed, leaking, and failed units — or install new disposals with proper P-trap and dishwasher connections.

Repiping

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.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about plumbing in Cape Girardeau? We have answers.

What plumbing emergencies require immediate service in Cape Girardeau?

Burst pipes, gas leaks, sewer backups, and flooding all require immediate emergency plumbing response in Cape Girardeau. 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 Cape Girardeau and surrounding Missouri communities.

Does homeowners insurance cover plumbing repairs in Cape Girardeau, MO?

In Cape Girardeau, 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 Cape Girardeau, MO?

Plumber rates in Cape Girardeau 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.

What should I do if I smell gas in my Cape Girardeau home?

If you smell gas in your Cape Girardeau 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.

Is it safe to use chemical drain cleaners in my Cape Girardeau home?

Chemical drain cleaners can damage older pipes in Cape Girardeau 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.

How long does a plumbing repair take in Cape Girardeau, MO?

Simple repairs like faucet replacement, toilet repair, or drain clearing in Cape Girardeau often take 1 to 2 hours.
