Mississippi plumbing FAQ
How do I check a plumber's license in Mississippi?
Plumber licensing in Mississippi is largely handled by cities and counties; the State Board of Contractors licenses contractors on larger jobs.
Do pipes freeze in Mississippi?
Occasionally. Hard freezes don't happen every winter, which is why they cause so much damage when they do: many homes have exposed pipes and hose bibs that were never protected.
Is Mississippi water hard?
Generally moderate, based on national hardness mapping, but it varies by utility and by well. Your water provider's annual water quality report lists the hardness for your system, and a plumber can test well water.
How old are homes in Mississippi?
Census estimates for Mississippi put 15% of homes as built before 1960, 28% from 1960 to 1979, 30% from 1980 to 1999 and 28% in 2000 or later. Older homes are more likely to have galvanized supply pipe and cast iron or clay sewer lines.
