When to Call an Emergency Plumber

Turn to our plumbing contractors if you find yourself in an emergency

There are few things as unnerving as a plumbing emergency and there are many different types of plumbing problems that homeowners face. However, there are some problems that require immediate service before something disastrous happens. Here are some of the most common events that occur where you would need to contact an emergency plumber:

THERE IS A RISK OF FLOODING
Any time there’s the potential for a flood, you need a professional right away. There are numerous plumbing mishaps that can lead to flooding, which can cause irreparable damage to your flooring, carpets, furniture, insulation, electrical system, and wood framing. Flooding due to a failed sump pump, burst pipe, sewer back up, or water shut off valve failure, are all examples of plumbing emergencies. Flood damage can cause significant damage to structures and is a safety concern, therefore should be addressed as soon as possible.

SEWER BACKUP
Sewage contains all of the waste products that have been removed from your home. When there is a backup in the sewer line, fumes, odors, and pathogens begin to infiltrate the indoor environment, creating a health hazard. A sewer backup, whether caused by a blockage, broken pipe, or tree root intrusion, is an urgent reason to call an emergency plumber.

BURST PIPES
If a pipe has burst, there is no doubt you should contact an emergency plumber. Water can flood your home quickly and in massive quantities, causing extensive damage to your infrastructure. Turn off the water via the main shut-off valve to help reduce the water damage to your home.

OVERFLOWING TOILET
While a clogged toilet is one thing, an overflowing toilet is an emergency. To get this taken care of ASAP, you will need to rely on an emergency plumber. The cause of your overflowing toilet could be something simple or it could be a much more significant plumbing issue.
