What Is Considered a Plumbing Emergency?

If water or sewage is actively damaging your home, you cannot stop the flow, or there is an immediate safety concern, call for emergency plumbing help.

Problems that need immediate attention include:

• Burst pipes
• Uncontrolled water leaks
• Sewage backing into the home
• An overflowing fixture you cannot stop
• Loss of water caused by a plumbing problem inside the home
• Suspected gas leaks
• Water near electrical equipment

A dripping faucet, a slowly developing fixture problem, or a planned replacement can wait for a standard appointment when there is no active damage or safety concern.

Common Emergency Plumbing Problems We Handle

A broken pipe can release a large amount of water in a short time. If you can safely reach the main water shutoff, turn off the water and call for help. Our leak detection and repair work includes finding the source and repairing leaking plumbing.

A main drain clog becomes urgent when wastewater or sewage starts coming back through fixtures. Emergency drain cleaning clears blockages when buildup or another obstruction has stopped the line from draining.

Sewer problems can go beyond a clog. If a damaged sewer pipe is causing the backup, sewer line repair fixes the damaged section instead of repeatedly clearing the line.

A leaking water heater can send water across a garage, utility room, or other part of the house. Our water heater services include repair and replacement when the equipment fails.

What Should You Do During a Plumbing Emergency?

Start by protecting people and the house.

If water is leaking and you can safely reach the shutoff valve, turn off the water. Do not enter standing water near electrical equipment or outlets.

Stay away from sewage and keep children and pets out of the affected area. Do not try to clear or repair a sewer line while sewage is backing up.

If you suspect a gas leak, leave the area. Follow your gas utility or emergency-service instructions from a safe location.

Once everyone is safe, call a plumber and leave hazardous repairs to trained professionals.

The repair depends on what happened and what needs to be done to stop the immediate problem. We do not promise a specific arrival time before we know the service location and current availability.

Emergency Plumbing vs. a Standard Plumbing Appointment

Call for emergency help when you have active flooding, sewage entering the home, an uncontrolled leak, or an immediate safety concern.

A dripping faucet, a fixture that is starting to wear out, or a planned plumbing replacement can be scheduled for a regular appointment if there is no active damage.

If water is spreading through the house or you cannot safely use the plumbing, do not wait for the problem to get worse.

What to Expect When You Call an Emergency Plumber

We start with what is leaking, backing up, or no longer working and if the water has been shut off.

When our plumber arrives, the first priority is stopping active damage where possible. Once the immediate problem is under control, we find what failed and explain the repair.

Some emergencies can be repaired during the visit. Others need additional work after the immediate leak, blockage, or safety problem is under control. We explain what we found and what needs to happen next.
