Every plumbing service you need, delivered by licensed professionals who know the Kensington area.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

To prevent frozen pipes in Kensington, 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.
