Our $185 Emergency Dispatch Fee Counts Towards The Service We Provide
Immediate Steps To Take
- Pressurized water leak: shut your water off at your main shut off valve or at the water meter.
- Gas Leak: If you can't shut a valve off to stop the leak or if you hear hissing and the gas indoors is super strong — go outside and call 911 or your gas supplier — your safety is paramount.
- A main sewer clog: Stop using all water then go outside and slowly remove your clean-out cap (you should have 1 near the house and 1 near the street). It's better to have sewage flowing on your lawn than inside your home.
- No water pressure at any fixture: check your main shut off valve to ensure it wasn't accidentally shut off. Then check with your water provider to see if there is an outage.
After you've taken these immediate steps — call your plumber.

What is a plumbing emergency?
Not all situations require an expensive late night plumbing visit. So what's the difference?
Is it an emergency?
(Immediate dispatch needed)
- Active Water Leaks: A pressurized leak that cannot be shut off and is actively damaging your home’s interior.
- Total Water Outage: A complete loss of water supply to the entire home.
- Main Sewer Line Blockage: A backup or clog that completely prevents the use of all toilets, sinks, and tubs.
- Uncontrollable Gas Leak: A suspected gas leak that cannot be safely isolated or shut off.
Can it wait for regular hours?
(Save money — Book regular schedule)
- No Hot Water: But your water heater isn't leaking heavily.
- Single Toilet Clog: And you have additional toilets that are not clogged.
- Individual Sink or Tub Clog: But nothing else is clogged.
- Dripping Faucet or Hose Bib: Drips that aren't damaging your home can wait for normal business hours.

Frequently Asked Questions
When you have a late-night sewer, water, or gas emergency, you don’t need a sales pitch—you need a solution. We charge hourly because our priority is getting a licensed plumber to your door immediately to isolate the problem and safely restore service to the rest of your home.
We aren’t coming out just to give you a price; we’re coming out to stop the emergency. If a permanent repair isn’t possible right then, we will perform a safe, temporary fix to get your water or gas back on, then return during normal business hours for the final repair to save you money.
