Common plumbing issues in Denver include frozen pipes during winter, hard water mineral buildup, water pressure problems due to elevation, and aging pipe infrastructure in older neighborhoods.

Denver plumbers typically charge $75-150 per hour, with most service calls starting at $150-200. Emergency services may cost more. Complex jobs are usually quoted as flat-rate projects.

To prevent frozen pipes: insulate exposed pipes, keep garage doors closed, let faucets drip during extreme cold, maintain consistent indoor temperature, and know how to shut off your water main in emergencies.
