"Woke up to a backed-up kitchen sink and called Magnet first thing. Technician was here within two hours, cleared the clog, and walked me through what caused it so it would not happen again. Very professional team."
"Smelled gas in the basement late at night and called the emergency line. A plumber was dispatched within the hour, located the leak at a corroded fitting on the water heater gas line, and repaired it on the spot. They even came back the next day to re-verify with the gas detector. Truly appreciated the care taken."
"Called Magnet Plumbing when our old 40-gallon tank started leaking. They came out the same day, gave me a fair quote on a tankless replacement, and had it running by end of day. Could not be happier with the work or the price."
