What do you charge to come out on a service call?

We are upfront about our service fee because we feel it is a small amount to ensure you are getting a qualified plumber in your home. In addition, we accept all major forms of credit cards.

Can you give me a price over the phone?
We have found that the only way to properly diagnose a plumbing problem in your home or business is to actually see it. The plumber needs to come out and evaluate your problem, do a thorough diagnosis, and give you options for solving your problem and exact prices.
Many times our plumber can give you other options to solve the plumbing problems that will save you time and money.

Should I try fixing my plumbing problem myself?
No. If you decide to take on a plumbing repair yourself, you could be making the problem worse and end up needing a plumber to come out in the long run and it could end up costing you more money. Our advice is to assess the problem, contact us, and ask us what we think. We will give you an honest expert opinion on the specific matter.

What should I do if my pipes freeze?
Do NOT use an open flame to thaw a frozen pipe. This is not only a fire hazard but it could also cause a steam explosion! When pipes are frozen in a home, there is often water available at one faucet but not another.
If there is no water at all, the problem may be in the street. Either way, you should contact a professional plumbing company. Call McDonald Plumbing at (616) 698-6771 for our professional opinion or to ask us questions.

Do you have to dig up my yard or driveway to fix problems?
McDonald Plumbing’s trenchless technology gives the homeowner a cost-effective alternative to traditional dig methods of pipe replacement while still offering the structural strength of a new pipe. This method allows our plumbing technicians to replace the underground pipe without disturbing any surface materials such as driveways, sidewalks, and floors.
