Know the signs

Common urgent plumbing concerns

A quick guide to plumbing problems that often need prompt attention. This is general information, not a claim that every service listed is confirmed — describe your situation and request service.

Burst or leaking pipes

A split or cracked supply line can release water quickly. Shutting off the water where accessible helps limit the spread while service is requested.

Significant water leaks

Active leaks at fixtures, supply lines, or inside walls can cause hidden damage. Stopping the water at the source and requesting service helps limit it.

Severe drain blockages

A drain that's fully blocked can back up and overflow. Avoiding further use of the fixture until it's cleared helps prevent a backup.

Sewer backups

Sewage backing up through drains is a serious situation. Avoid contact with the water, keep people and pets away, and request an assessment.

Overflowing toilets

A toilet that won't stop overflowing can be stopped at its shutoff valve where accessible. Requesting service helps resolve the cause.

Water heater leaks

A leaking water heater can fail suddenly. Shutting off water and the energy source where accessible helps limit damage while service is arranged.

Sudden loss of water pressure

A sharp pressure drop across multiple fixtures can indicate a supply line problem or a hidden leak. An assessment helps identify the cause.

Stay safe first

What to do before a plumber arrives

General safety guidance for common plumbing problems. These are sensible precautions, not a substitute for professional assessment.

  • Shut off water where safe and accessible

    If a fixture or supply line is leaking, turn off the nearest shutoff valve or the main water supply to reduce ongoing leakage while you wait for service.

  • Move belongings away from water

    Where it's safe to do so, move rugs, furniture, and stored items away from pooling water to help limit damage.

  • Stay clear of electrical hazards

    If water has reached electrical outlets, panels, or appliances, stay clear and contact the appropriate qualified emergency service — don't wade into it.

  • Avoid contact with contaminated water

    If sewage or contaminated water is present, keep people and pets away from the area and don't run water or flush toilets if a backup is active.

  • Don't attempt dangerous repairs

    Avoid opening electrical equipment, entering flooded utility areas, or handling contaminated water. Describe the situation clearly and let a qualified professional assess it.

  • Note what you observed

    Jot down when the problem started, what you noticed, and anything you tried — it helps the right service get scheduled quickly.

Rental properties

Landlords and property managers can request service for tenant-reported issues, recurring problems, or pre- and post-tenant plumbing checks.
