Called them for a leak issue for our water heater, and they were able to dispatch someone on Sunday Mother’s Day. Very grateful that Alex came and got the job done swiftly while explaining all the issues and the options to fix/replace the heater. — Google Review

Plumbing Emergency FAQs

What qualifies as a plumbing emergency?

A plumbing emergency is any situation where waiting could cause major damage to your home or put your family’s safety at risk. That can include burst pipes, severe leaks, overflowing toilets you cannot stop, sewer backups, or a sudden loss of all water. If water is spreading, you smell sewage or gas, or you cannot use essential fixtures, it is best to treat it as an emergency. When in doubt, give us a call and we can help you decide whether you need immediate service. When in doubt, call. We don’t charge for telling you it can wait. We’d rather you call unnecessarily than wait on something that can’t.

Do you offer emergency plumbing service after hours?

Yes, emergency plumbing problems do not keep business hours, and neither do we. When you have an urgent issue in the evening or on a weekend, you can reach out and our team will work to get a technician out as quickly as possible. Fast response helps limit water damage, protect your belongings, and restore your plumbing so you can get back to normal. If you are facing an emergency, call our main number and follow the prompts for urgent service.

What should I do while waiting for an emergency plumber to arrive?

If it is safe to do so, shut off the water to the affected fixture or use your home’s main shutoff valve to stop the flow of water. Move belongings out of the wet area, place towels or a bucket to contain leaks, and avoid using any plumbing fixtures connected to the problem line. For electrical safety, keep clear of standing water near outlets or appliances. If you suspect a gas leak or sewage backup, leave the area and wait for instructions from the professionals.
