Emergency Plumbing in Tempe, AZ — 24/7 Service for Bursts, Backups & Leaks

Not every plumbing problem needs immediate attention. If you notice any of the issues below at home, it’s usually safe to wait before calling for help:

• Slow dripping faucet
• Low water pressure
• A clogged sink that has yet to overflow

But if there’s a risk to your health or property, call an emergency plumber right away. Reach out to us  if you notice any of these problems:

• Water is actively leaking in your home
• Sewage backup
• If the only toilet is non-functional
• If the hot water is unavailable in the winter

Emergency plumbers are ready to respond fast. Many older homes and condos in Tempe have pipes that might fail without warning. If you’re unsure about your plumbing, give us a call. We’ll give you professional advice in 30 seconds or less.

If you’re dealing with a plumbing emergency, here are some steps you can take to limit the damage until our team arrives:

• Get other household members, pets, and valuable belongings away from the affected areas.
• Find the main water supply and turn it off. The valve is usually in the basement or garage, but older homes in Tempe might have it somewhere else. If you’re not sure where it is, call us, and we’ll guide you over the phone.
• If safe, shut off the electricity near the water.  
• Turn off the water heater if you think it’s causing any problems.
• Keep the water contained with buckets, containers, or towels.
• Don’t try to fix the problem yourself: with plumbing, a mistake can make things worse. Wait for our experts to take care of it.

Some plumbing problems can wait until morning, but others need to be addressed NOW, even if it’s in the middle of the night or over a holiday weekend.
