Common plumbing FAQs in South Florida

Do I need a permit for plumbing work in South Florida?

Yes, in most cases, permits are required for major plumbing installations. For example, water main taps, backflow prevention devices, and water meter setups all typically need one. As a licensed plumbing contractor, Acer Plumbing handles all permitting and inspection coordination on your behalf, ensuring everything is done legally and up to code.

What is backflow, and why do I need a prevention device?

Backflow is when contaminated water flows in reverse into your clean water supply — often caused by sudden drops in pressure. A backflow prevention device stops this from happening and is required for many properties in Florida. Additionally, we install certified devices and offer regular testing to keep your system safe and compliant.

How do I know if I have a water leak underground?

For example, common signs include unusually high water bills, damp spots in your yard, or a drop in water pressure. We use advanced camera inspection and pressure testing to locate hidden leaks without damaging your property. The sooner a leak is found, the more money and water you can save.

Are your plumbing services covered by warranty?

Absolutely. We stand behind our work with warranties on both labor and parts (length may vary depending on the service). If something goes wrong after installation, we'll make it right. We believe in long-term relationships, not quick fixes.

Do you offer eco-friendly plumbing options?

Yes! We offer eco-friendly plumbing solutions. For example, low-flow fixtures, water-saving devices, and sustainable practices that help reduce water waste and lower your utility bills.
