2021 Plumbing Cost Estimates: Pipe Repair Prices, Installation Prices

February 23, 2021 by Annie

plumbing-costs-.jpg

When it comes to the plumbing in your home, you probably won’t pay it much attention until there’s an issue. Most people take the plumbing systems in their homes for granted. This is a mistake because being intentional on this front can ward off costly repairs. Whether due to the need for routine maintenance or to fix serious problems, you will occasionally need to call in a licensed plumber. So it’s good to have some plumbing cost data on hand.

Here’s a look at 2021 plumbing cost estimates. You’ll also see specific numbers for pipe repair jobs and installation services.

2021 Plumbing Cost Estimates

For 2021, licensed plumbers charge, on average, anywhere between about $50 to $150 per hour for plumbing jobs. Some charge more than this average and some charge less than this average. When considering plumbing costs, it’s important to keep in mind that professional plumbers may charge more than the aforementioned cost estimates range on weekends, after hours, and on statutory holidays. They will explain this when you make a service call.

You should also factor into the pricing equation the plumber’s traveling time. Licensed plumbers calculate travel time differently, so you should enquire how traveling time is calculated.

Pipe Repair

Having to contend with damaged pipes is a situation that no homeowner wants to face. Pipe damage can stem from various issues such as extreme cold, moving pipes caused by a house settling, water pressure, age, and corrosion. One thing you can be certain of is that you will need to call a licensed professional to fix any problems involving your pipes.

The amount a professional plumber will charge for a pipe repair will depend on various factors such as what the existing pipe is constructed out of, where the damaged pipe is situated in the home, and the scope of the problem.

In terms of a pipe repair cost estimate, you can expect to spend between $250 and $1,000 for a simple job where a licensed plumber can easily access the damaged pipe. It will cost more for a more complex job where a licensed plumber has to work on a hard-to-reach section of pipe. The average price to repair a pipe is approximately $500 to $600.

Installation Prices

How much you pay for installation will depend largely on the plumber you hire, what you want to have installed, and the scope of the project. Here’s a look at some installation cost estimates.

Water heater installation – $970 to $1,900

Shower installation – $1,475 to $7,000

Bathtub installation $1,200 to $7,000

Water main installation – $750 to $3,000

Sewer main installation $1,750 to $5,700

Conclusion

If you experience any plumbing issues, it’s important that you contact a licensed plumbing professional rather than try to fix the problem yourself. There are projects that a homeowner can possibly tackle themselves, but you don’t want to take chances with your plumbing system.

It’s important that you have an idea of plumbing costs before you decide on a service provider. This means getting quotes from multiple licensed plumbers. Knowing the cost ranges will help you to find a dependable plumbing business that can do a quality job at a cost you can afford.
