Common questions about plumbing services in San Marcos, TX.
Burst pipes, gas leaks, sewer backups, and flooding all require immediate emergency plumbing response in San Marcos. A burst pipe can release hundreds of gallons per hour, and gas leaks pose fire and explosion risks.

Plumber rates in San Marcos 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.

Your main water shutoff valve in San Marcos 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 San Marcos often take 1 to 2 hours.
