North Texas notes

Plumbing in McKinney: what to know

McKinney pairs a historic downtown with century-old homes and a ring of newer subdivisions, so it pays to say how old your house is when you ask for a quote.

  • North Texas clay soil swells when wet and shrinks in drought. That movement can stress slab foundations and the pipes under them, so slab leaks are a common local problem.
  • Hard freezes are rare but serious here. Insulating exposed pipes and knowing where your main shutoff is can prevent a burst pipe.
  • Water across much of the Metroplex is moderately hard, which can shorten the life of water heaters and fixtures.

Before you hire

How to choose plumbers in McKinney

  1. 1

    Check the license

    Plumbers in Texas must be licensed by the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners. You can look up any license number on the board's website.

  2. 2

    Ask about the trip fee

    Many plumbers charge a service call or trip fee just to come out. Ask whether it is applied to the repair if you hire them.

  3. 3

    Ask for the price before work starts

    Whether they charge by the hour or by the job, get the price for the repair before they begin.

  4. 4

    Ask about permits

    Water heater replacements and gas line work usually need a city permit. A licensed plumber should pull it.

FAQ

Plumbing in McKinney: FAQ

How do I find good plumbers in McKinney?

Compare plumbers that serve McKinney by rating, number of reviews, years in business and typical price, then request quotes from two or three. On Job Hound, pros are ranked by their service record and can never pay for a higher spot.

How do I check if a plumber is licensed in Texas?

Ask for their license number and look it up on the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners website.

What counts as a plumbing emergency?

A burst pipe, a leak you cannot stop, sewage backing up, no water, or a gas smell. For a gas smell, leave the house and call your gas company first.

How long does a water heater last?

Often about 8 to 12 years for a tank water heater, and less with hard water and no maintenance. Flushing the tank helps.

What is a slab leak?

A leak in a water line under a concrete slab foundation. Signs include warm spots on the floor, the sound of running water, or a water bill that jumps for no reason.

Does it cost anything to use Job Hound?

No. Job Hound is free for homeowners, and pros never pay for leads.
