What to do while you wait
If a pipe bursts, turn off your main water supply right away and call us. Not sure where it is? Read where your main water shutoff is, and how to use it, and see what to do in the first ten minutes after a burst pipe.
If you smell gas or suspect a leak, leave the area first and contact us from outside. Skip chemical drain cleaners on a backed-up drain, since they can damage pipes and make the clog worse.

The short answer
Emergency plumbing is urgent repair for problems that risk water damage, a health hazard, or serious disruption, such as a burst pipe, a sewer backup, a gas leak, or a sudden loss of hot water. A licensed plumber finds the cause, explains the options, and gives the price before any work starts, then makes the repair and checks the system for underlying problems. You need it when water is flowing where it should not, sewage is backing up, or you smell gas, and the service is available 24/7.
Emergency plumbing FAQ
- What qualifies as a plumbing emergency?
- A plumbing emergency is any situation that risks water damage, a health hazard, or serious disruption. Common examples are a burst pipe, a sewer backup, a gas leak, an overflowing toilet, and a sudden loss of hot water. If water is spreading, sewage is backing up, or you smell gas, treat it as an emergency and call right away.
- How quickly can you respond to an emergency call?
- Emergency service is available 24/7, and we aim to respond quickly and reliably to limit damage. When a plumber can arrive depends on that day’s schedule, and the office tells you what to expect when you call. Our trucks are stocked to finish most repairs on the first visit, so your plumbing can be working again as soon as possible.
- What should I do if a pipe bursts in my home?
- Turn off your main water supply immediately, then call us. Keep the area clear and move belongings away from the water while you wait. The plumber locates and repairs the damaged section to stop the water and helps prevent further water damage.
- Can you help with a gas leak?
- Yes, our plumbers are trained to handle gas line emergencies safely. If you suspect a gas leak, leave the building first and call 911 or your gas utility from outside, and don’t switch lights or appliances on or off on the way out. Once the area is safe, contact us for the gas line repair.
- What are the warning signs of a sewer backup?
- The warning signs of a sewer backup are several drains clogging at once, foul odors, gurgling noises in drains, and water backing up into sinks, tubs, or toilets. When more than one fixture is affected, the problem is usually in the main sewer line rather than a single drain. Stop using water in the building and call, because a backup can bring contamination into the home.
- Are emergency plumbing services more expensive?
- Emergency plumbing can cost more, because work outside normal hours can carry additional fees. A service fee applies after normal business hours, and the office explains what applies before a plumber is dispatched. You are also given the price up front, so you know what to expect before any work starts.
- How can I prevent plumbing emergencies?
- Regular maintenance is the main way to prevent plumbing emergencies. Drain cleaning, pipe inspections, and water heater checks catch small problems before they turn into a burst pipe, a backup, or a failed heater. Knowing where your main water shutoff is also helps you limit the damage if something does go wrong.
- What should I do if my water heater stops working?
- Check for a power or pilot light problem first. On an electric heater that means the breaker, and on a gas heater it means the gas supply and the pilot. If there is no obvious cause, or the heater is leaking, contact us for emergency water heater repair, and the plumber will also check the system for underlying problems.
- Can you fix a backed-up toilet right away?
- Yes, blocked and overflowing toilets are handled as emergencies to prevent contamination and further damage to your plumbing. Close the shutoff valve behind the toilet to stop it refilling while you wait. The plumber removes the blockage, repairs any faulty parts, and inspects the sewer line if the backflow keeps coming back.
- Is it safe to use chemical drain cleaners in an emergency?
- No, chemical drain cleaners should be avoided in an emergency. They can damage pipes and make a clog worse, especially when the line is fully backed up. Call a professional plumber instead, who can clear the drain safely and find what caused the blockage.
