Plumbing Emergencies Don't Always Happen During Business Hours

A burst pipe, overflowing toilet, sewer backup, or sudden water leak can happen without warning. Knowing what to do first can help reduce damage and give you more control until help arrives.

Once the immediate problem has been stabilized, the next step is understanding what caused it. From there, we can explain the available repair options and help you decide how you'd like to move forward.

What Is Considered a Plumbing Emergency?

Some plumbing problems can wait until the next available appointment. Others should be addressed as soon as possible to help prevent additional damage to your home.

Common plumbing emergencies include:

• Overflowing toilets
• Water heater leaks
• Drains backing up
• Sudden loss of water service
• Burst or leaking water lines
• Sewer line backups
• Gas line concerns
• Slab leaks causing active water intrusion

If you're unsure whether your situation is an emergency, give us a call. We'll ask a few simple questions to help determine the urgency.

What Can I Do Before the Plumber Arrives?

Shut Off the Water

If water is actively leaking or flowing, shutting off the main water supply can help prevent additional damage.

Turn Off the Water Heater (If Necessary)

If your water heater is leaking or your home's water has been shut off, turning off the unit may help prevent additional damage.

Stop Using Drains

If multiple drains are backing up, the problem could be in the main sewer line. Continuing to use sinks, showers, toilets, washing machines, or dishwashers may force more water into the system and lead to additional backups inside your home.

Until the problem has been evaluated, it's best to avoid using your plumbing system whenever possible.

Protect Your Belongings

Move valuables, furniture, electronics, and other items away from standing water whenever it can be done safely.

When in Doubt, Reach Out
