What Qualifies as a Plumbing Emergency?
Some plumbing issues can wait for a scheduled appointment, but others pose an immediate risk to your health, safety, and property. If you are experiencing any of the following, it is critical to seek professional help without delay.
Burst Pipes & Severe LeaksA burst pipe can release gallons of water per minute, leading to catastrophic structural damage, ruined flooring and furniture, and the potential for dangerous mold growth. Any significant, uncontrolled leak requires immediate action.
Sewer Line BackupIf water is backing up into your drains, tubs, or toilets, it’s a clear sign of a main sewer line clog. This isn’t just water; it’s unsanitary wastewater that poses a serious health hazard to your family and must be addressed immediately.
Overflowing ToiletA toilet that continues to run and overflow is a common but serious emergency. It can quickly cause significant water damage to your bathroom floor and the structure below.
No Water in Your HomeA sudden and complete loss of water could indicate a major break in your main water line. This not only halts all daily activities like cooking and cleaning but can also signal a significant problem underground that needs prompt attention.
Water Heater FailureA severely leaking water heater tank can cause extensive flooding and water damage. Other malfunctions, like a smell of gas from a gas-powered unit or strange popping and banging noises, can indicate a safety risk that requires an expert inspection.
Gas Line LeaksThe smell of rotten eggs or sulfur is a critical warning sign of a natural gas leak. This is the most dangerous type of plumbing emergency. If you suspect a gas leak, evacuate your home immediately, call your gas utility provider from a safe distance, and then contact a certified professional for the necessary repairs.
Critical Steps to Take Before Your Plumber Arrives
While our technician is on the way, you can take a few crucial steps to minimize damage and ensure your family’s safety. Acting quickly can make a significant difference.
- Shut Off the Main Water Valve: Your first and most important action is to stop the flow of water. The main water shut-off valve is typically located where the water line enters your home, often in a basement, crawl space, utility closet, or outside near the water meter. Turn the valve clockwise until it is fully closed.
- Turn Off the Water Heater: To prevent the tank from overheating or bursting due to a lack of incoming cold water, you should turn off your water heater. For an electric heater, switch off the corresponding breaker in your electrical panel. For a gas heater, turn the switch to the "PILOT" position.
- Manage the Water: If it is safe to do so, begin removing standing water using buckets, mops, towels, or a wet/dry vacuum. This helps prevent water from seeping deeper into floors, subfloors, and walls.
- Prioritize Electrical Safety: If water is near electrical outlets, appliances, or your breaker box, do not touch anything. Shut off your home's main electricity at the breaker panel to prevent the risk of electric shock.
- Clear the Area: Ensure our technician has a safe and clear path to the affected area. Move any furniture, boxes, or other items that may obstruct access to the leak or damaged pipe.
