You can contact us at any hour of the day or night for immediate plumbing services – but should you do so? Or should you wait and call us during regular business hours?
The fact is– many homeowners aren’t quite sure what really qualifies as a plumbing emergency. Often, if you’re in any doubt, it’s best to err on the side of caution and contact a plumber, regardless of the time. However, if you’re facing one of the following situations, you’ll need to call an emergency plumbing service as soon as possible!
Burst Pipe
When a pipe bursts, the rush of water pouring into your home should signal you to contact us right away. You can shut off the flow at the main water valve, but you’ll need an expert to repair the damage.
Frozen Pipe
In the winter, water running through your pipes can freeze. If you notice little or no water coming from a tap or a toilet that isn’t refilling after a flush, call us immediately. A frozen pipe can easily rupture, so the situation cannot wait.
Toilet Overflow
An overflowing toilet is definitely a plumbing emergency. Shutting off the main valve for the toilet can prevent the problem from getting worse, but if the situation isn’t quickly resolved, you may end up with severe water damage.
Sewer Line Leak
If your bathtub is filling with wastewater or your toilet fills when you run the bathroom sink, you may have a sewer line leak. Prompt repair is essential to avoid issues, so don’t hesitate to call us!
Gas Line Leak
A gas line leak can threaten the health and safety of your family. If you notice a rotten egg smell or hear hissing noises coming from behind a wall, leave your home at once and call 911, your utility company and our emergency plumbing service.
Water Heater Leak
When you suddenly have no hot water, a leak in your water heater may be to blame. And if the leak is at the bottom of the unit, the problem is a definite plumbing emergency. Without a quick fix, the tank could collapse and flood your home. Contact us immediately before this happens!
