What counts as a plumbing emergency?
- A burst or leaking pipe that will not stop after the valve is closed
- Sewage backing up into tubs, showers or floor drains
- A water heater leaking, making loud popping noises or flooding the garage
- No water at all to the house
- Water coming through the ceiling or walls
- A running toilet that is overflowing and will not stop
Not sure if it qualifies? Call anyway. We will tell you honestly whether it can wait for a normal appointment.
What happens when you call
We ask a few quick questions
Where the water is, whether you found the shutoff, and what you can see. That lets us arrive with the right parts.
We stop the damage first
Our first job is to isolate the leak or clear the blockage so the water stops. Permanent repairs come next, after you approve the price.
You get a clear price before work starts
No surprise add-ons. If something changes on site, we explain it and get your approval first.
Emergencies we see most in Richardson
Winter freezes split exposed pipes in attics, garages and outdoor hose bibs. In summer, drought dries the clay soil, and slab foundation movement can crack lines under the house. Older neighborhoods also see sewer backups from aging drain lines and mature tree roots. If your problem is one of these, see our pages on burst pipes and slab leaks, sewer and drain cleaning and water heater repair.
Homes and businesses
We handle houses, apartments, offices and retail spaces along the Central Expressway and Telecom Corridor. Prices for common jobs are on our cost guide.
