Common questions about plumbing services in Hockessin, DE.
Chemical drain cleaners can damage older pipes in Hockessin homes, especially PVC, brass, or aging galvanized plumbing. The caustic chemicals can eat through pipe walls over time and are hazardous if they splash on skin or eyes. A professional drain cleaning by Phoenician Plumbing is safer, more effective, and prevents pipe damage — costing less in the long run.
Simple repairs like faucet replacement, toilet repair, or drain clearing in Hockessin often take 1 to 2 hours. More complex jobs like slab leak repair, water line replacement, or water heater installation typically take a half to a full day. Whole-home repiping can take 2 to 4 days. Phoenician Plumbing provides a clear time estimate before starting any job.
Your main water shutoff valve in Hockessin 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 Phoenician Plumbing immediately — our emergency crew can help locate and operate the valve to stop water damage.
If you smell gas in your Hockessin home, do not operate any electrical switches, open flames, or appliances. Leave the building immediately, leaving doors open as you go. Call your gas utility from outside or from a neighbor, then call Phoenician Plumbing for emergency gas line inspection. Do not re-enter until a professional has cleared the property.
To prevent frozen pipes in Hockessin, 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 Phoenician Plumbing immediately rather than attempting to thaw it yourself to avoid a burst.
Most Hockessin homeowners benefit from professional drain cleaning every 1 to 2 years as preventive maintenance. Homes with large families, frequent cooking, or older plumbing may need service more often. Tree roots, grease buildup, and hair are the most common causes of drain problems in Hockessin. Phoenician Plumbing uses hydro-jetting and snaking to thoroughly clear all drain types.

"They have done many of my storefront locations and truly are the BEST. Honest and reliable, highly recommend them!"
"Had an under-slab water line burst. They came out that day, capped off the bad line and restored water to the rest of the house, then rerouted the water line through the attic with minimal drywall damage. Very clean, respectful, knowledgeable, and professional. Only plumber I will ever call."
"I noticed some pooling water in my front yard. Called them and a plumber was here within an hour. Found the leak at the connection of the water main into the house about 4 feet down. Was here about six hours and did a fantastic job. Very much appreciate the prompt response and dedicated service."
