Burst Pipe Repair
Repairing a burst pipe costs an average of $500 if you hire a plumbing repair pro. On the low end, you could spend $150 to replace small areas of the pipe. On the high end, burst pipe repair costs can exceed $5,000 if you need to install new pipes underground or take care of related water damage. The amount of pipe requiring repairs will also affect the cost at $150 and $250 per linear foot.
Installing a Propane Tank
The average propane tank cost is about $1,400, though most homeowners pay between $600 and $2,500 for the tank and its installation. The prices of propane tanks vary significantly by size, region, and whether it’s aboveground or underground. An underground 250-gallon tank costs $500 to $1,000 or more if it’s installed underground.
Plumbing FAQs
Before finding the right plumber for your job, there are a few questions that you should ask, including:
Are you licensed and insured?
Do you charge for estimates?
Is your fee a flat rate, or is it hourly?
Who will do the work? Are they all licensed and qualified plumbers?
What happens if any breaks or damages occur?
What is your response time in an emergency?
Is cleanup included in the quote?
Do your services come with a guarantee?
Discussing these questions with your plumbing contractor will help eliminate future issues and clarify expectations.
Before your plumber pays you a visit, it’s a good idea to clean up any boxes, garbage, or other obstacles that could be in their way. In addition, it’s best practice to clean the area that needs to be inspected or worked on, like a toilet, for example. Make sure to keep kids and pets out of the way once the plumber arrives.
Typically, plumbing repairs cost about $325 per job but can range from $175 to $4,000 or more. Simple fixes, such as a toilet repair, will be less expensive at around $150 to $400. However, if you have a pipe that has burst, you can expect to pay between $1,000 and $4,000 or more.
The project that needs to be completed, the size of your home, and the type of plumbing pipes you have can all impact the final cost. External factors such as supply chain issues and shortage of materials all play a part in how much this repair might be.
The average cost to hire a plumber is around $100 an hour but can vary between $45 and $200 an hour depending on the plumber’s experience and the repair that you need. It’s also important to note that these prices can go up on holidays, and emergency plumber rates average $150 per hour, in addition to a flat-rate trip fee of $100 to $350.
