FAQs
How fast can your emergency plumber arrive at my property in Crab Orchard?
Because our technicians are locally dispatched throughout Crab Orchard, our average response time is 30–45 minutes from the moment you call. During peak periods such as heavy storms or city-wide water outages, arrival may take up to 60 minutes, but we always keep you updated by text or phone so you know exactly when help will reach your door.
Do you really provide emergency plumbing service 24/7, including weekends and holidays?
Yes. Our live call center is staffed around the clock, 365 days a year. Whether it’s 3 a.m. on a Sunday or Christmas afternoon, a licensed plumber is on standby, fully equipped to handle burst pipes, flooded basements, sewer backups, and any other urgent issue in Crab Orchard.
What kinds of plumbing emergencies do you handle?
We handle all residential and light-commercial emergencies, including burst or frozen pipes, major leaks, failed water heaters, overflowing toilets, sewer line blockages, clogged main drains, gas line leaks, sump-pump failures, and sudden drops in water pressure. If water is causing damage or you suspect a health or safety hazard, call us immediately.
Will I be charged extra for an after-hours emergency visit?
Our pricing is transparent. We do have an after-hours service fee that covers the additional labor and logistics of mobilizing crews at night, on weekends, or holidays, but there are no hidden surcharges. Before any work begins, your technician will explain the problem, present repair options, and give you a written estimate so you can approve costs upfront.
What should I do to minimize damage while waiting for the plumber to arrive?
1) Shut off the main water supply—usually located near the water meter or where the main line enters the house. 2) Turn off electricity to affected areas if water is near outlets or appliances. 3) Open faucets to relieve pressure and drain remaining water. 4) Place towels or buckets under active leaks and move valuables or electronics out of harm’s way. 5) Avoid using chemical drain cleaners; they can worsen clogs and create hazards for the plumber.
Are your emergency repairs guaranteed?
Absolutely. All parts and labor are covered by our written 1-year warranty. If a repair we performed fails within that period, we return promptly at no charge. For water heaters and fixtures, we honor the manufacturer’s warranty and register the product for you whenever possible.
