When To Call for 24 Hour Plumbing Service
Plumbing issues can escalate quickly, turning a minor inconvenience into a disaster that could lead to thousands of dollars in damage. Below are the most common situations where you should call for emergency plumbing repair.
Burst Pipes: Burst pipes are one of the most urgent plumbing emergencies. This can happen due to excessive water pressure or frozen pipes.
Clogged or Overflowing Toilet: A clogged toilet can quickly become an emergency, especially if it overflows. When plunging or normal unclogging methods don’t work, call an emergency plumber.
Severe Drain Clogs: Clogged sinks, showers, and tubs that can’t be cleared with traditional drain cleaning methods could signal a more serious issue that requires emergency plumbing services.
Leaking Water Heater: A ruptured water heater can flood the surrounding area, resulting in water damage, mold, and mildew growth. If you see water pooling around the water tank’s base, call us for 24 hour water heater repair.
Sewer Backup: A sewer backup is another severe plumbing emergency that poses health risks due to contamination from raw sewage.
Are you sick of always running out of hot water? Call and ask about our tankless water heater services and never run out again.
Signs of a Failing Water Heater
Running out of hot water during a morning shower is not a good way to start your day. Most water heaters don’t suddenly fail; minor issues escalate and cause a total breakdown. If you know the signs that your water heater is in trouble, you can call for repair or replacement before the worst happens.
Inconsistent or No Hot Water: If the water heater struggles to provide consistent hot water or if the water is lukewarm or cold, it could signal a failing water heater or faulty heating element.
Rusty or Discolored Water: If your hot water has a red or brown tint, it could indicate the tank is rusting internally.
Leaks: Water puddles around the tank’s base could mean the tank is cracked. A leaking tank can cause severe water damage and typically requires replacement.
Odd Sounds: Rumbling, popping, or banging from the water heater typically means sediment buildup in the tank. As sediment heats up, it hardens and causes the odd noises.
