FAQs
What qualifies as a plumbing emergency in Grandview?
Any situation that risks water damage, health hazards, or loss of essential service is an emergency. Common examples include burst pipes, sewer line backups, major leaks that can’t be controlled with a shut-off valve, overflowing toilets you can’t unclog, and water heater leaks that threaten flooding. If the problem could damage your property or leave you without safe water, treat it as an emergency and call us right away.
How fast can you arrive at my Grandview home after I call?
Our emergency team is on standby 24/7 and typically reaches most Grandview addresses within 60 minutes—often sooner during off-peak traffic hours. When you call, our dispatcher pinpoints your location, provides an ETA, and keeps you updated if traffic or weather conditions change.
What should I do 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 any affected area if water is near outlets or appliances. 3. Open faucets to drain residual water and relieve pressure. 4. Move valuables, furniture, and electronics away from standing water. 5. Avoid using chemical drain cleaners—they can worsen pipe damage. 6. If safe, snap photos of the damage for insurance documentation.
Are emergency plumbing services more expensive than regular service calls?
Because emergencies require immediate mobilization of staff, after-hours scheduling, and rapid access to parts, the base service fee is higher than routine appointments. However, we provide upfront flat-rate pricing before any work begins, so there are no surprise charges. We also waive the emergency dispatch fee if extensive repair work is approved during the same visit.
Do you guarantee your emergency repairs?
Yes. All emergency repairs come with the same workmanship warranty as our scheduled services—one year on labor and manufacturer warranties on parts. If the same issue recurs due to our workmanship within the warranty period, we will return and fix it at no additional cost.
Can you bill my homeowners insurance directly?
We can provide detailed invoices, photos, and moisture-reading reports that most insurers require. While policies vary, we’ll work with your adjuster to streamline reimbursement. In many cases we can bill insurers directly for covered water-damage mitigation, reducing your out-of-pocket expense at the time of service.
