Fast response for any urgent plumbing problem

A burst pipe or indoor sewage backup can damage property and create safety concerns. Limit water use, follow the appropriate safety steps, and call to check participating provider availability for the location and requested work.

What is considered a plumbing emergency?

Burst Pipes & Flood Risk

Water rushing into drywall, floors, or foundations requires immediate main valve shutoff and repiping.

Sewer Main Line Backups

Raw sewage backing up into bathtubs, showers, or drains is a severe health hazard requiring instant clearance.

Water Heater Leaks / Failures

A leaking tank can rupture and dump 40-80 gallons of water into your home. Fast shutoff is critical.

Emergency Shutoff Checklist

Take these steps while the plumber is en route to minimize damage:

01

Close Main Water Valve

Usually located in the basement, utility closet, or near the street curb. Turn clockwise to shut off.

02

Turn Off Water Heaters

Turn off the gas valve or flip the electrical breaker to the heater tank to prevent it from burning out.

03

Open Outdoor Faucets

Open low-lying outdoor taps to drain remaining water out of the house plumbing network.
