Our Plumbing Services in Rutherford

Comprehensive plumbing solutions tailored to Rutherford properties. Click any service to learn more.

Toilet Repair

A running or leaking toilet wastes thousands of gallons and drives up your water bill. Our plumbers fix flappers, fill valves, wax rings, flush handles, and other toilet components — or install new toilets.

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.

Pipe Repair

Expert pipe repair for residential and commercial properties. We locate leaks and damage accurately, perform durable repairs, and pressure test the system to confirm everything holds before leaving.

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.

Water Heater Replacement

When your water heater reaches the end of its life, we make replacement easy. Our plumbers handle everything — disconnection, removal, installation, and final testing — so you have reliable hot water again fast.

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.

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.

Backflow Testing

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.

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.

Emergency Plumber

When a plumbing crisis hits, you need a licensed plumber immediately. We answer emergency calls around the clock and dispatch crews fast — stopping leaks, restoring water service, and preventing further damage.

Repiping

Whole-home and partial repiping to replace aging galvanized, polybutylene, or deteriorated pipes with modern long-lasting materials. Repiping eliminates chronic leaks, low pressure, and discolored water permanently.

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 Leak Detection

Gas leaks are a serious safety hazard. Our licensed plumbers use professional gas detection equipment to find leaks in supply lines, fittings, appliances, and meters — and recommend immediate repairs to protect your family.

Sewer Line Repair

Sewer line repair and replacement for cracked, collapsed, root-infiltrated, and offset pipes. We use camera inspection to diagnose the problem and recommend spot repairs, pipe lining, or full replacement.

Leak Detection

Professional leak detection services that pinpoint hidden water leaks without tearing into walls or floors. We use non-invasive technology to find the source precisely, then recommend the most effective repair.

Grease Trap Cleaning

Grease trap maintenance keeps your kitchen drains flowing and your business compliant with local waste regulations. We provide scheduled pumping, manifesting, and inspection-ready documentation.

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.

Sump Pump Installation

Professional sump pump installation for new construction and pump replacements. We handle the pit setup, discharge line routing, electrical connections, and test the completed installation under load.

Commercial Plumbing

Full-service commercial plumbing for restaurants, offices, retail, multi-family, and industrial properties. We handle new construction, maintenance contracts, fixture replacement, and urgent repairs.

Gas Line Repair

Licensed gas line repair for natural gas and propane systems. We use pressure testing and calibrated gas detectors to locate leaks and perform safe, code-compliant repairs to restore your gas service.

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.

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.

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.

Water Heater Repair

Fast water heater repair for tank and tankless units. We diagnose and fix pilot light failures, thermostat issues, heating element problems, pressure relief valve malfunctions, and sediment buildup quickly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about plumbing in Rutherford? We have answers.

What plumbing emergencies require immediate service in Rutherford?

Burst pipes, gas leaks, sewer backups, and flooding all require immediate emergency plumbing response in Rutherford. 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 Rutherford and surrounding New Jersey communities.

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

Chemical drain cleaners can damage older pipes in Rutherford 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 do I prevent frozen pipes in Rutherford, NJ?

To prevent frozen pipes in Rutherford, 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.

Does homeowners insurance cover plumbing repairs in Rutherford, NJ?

In Rutherford, 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 do I find a licensed plumber in Rutherford, NJ?

When hiring a plumber in Rutherford, always verify their NJ license and insurance. A licensed plumber must pass state examinations and carry liability coverage that protects your property. Magnet Plumbing employs licensed, background-checked plumbers throughout New Jersey — call (844) 618-0753 to schedule service or get a free estimate.

How often should I have my drains cleaned in Rutherford?

Most Rutherford 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 Rutherford. Magnet Plumbing uses hydro-jetting and snaking to thoroughly clear all drain types.

★★★★★

"We noticed our water bill doubling month over month and could not find anything visible. These guys came out with the leak detection equipment and located a slab leak under the living room in about thirty minutes. The repair was minimally invasive — small access cut, patched afterward, and the bill is back to normal. Really impressed with the professionalism."

— Derek M.
