FAQs
What types of emergency plumbing situations do you handle in Kodak?
Our experienced Kodak-based team is equipped to resolve burst or frozen pipes, sewer line backups, overflowing or clogged toilets, major leaks in water heaters, broken water mains, failed sump pumps, gas line leaks, and any sudden loss of water pressure. No matter the size of the job—from a flooded basement to a single leaking fixture—we arrive with fully stocked trucks and the specialized tools required to diagnose and repair the issue on the spot.
How fast can your plumbers reach my home or business in Kodak during an emergency?
We maintain on-call crews stationed in and around Kodak 24/7. In most situations, a technician is dispatched within minutes of your call and can typically arrive anywhere in the Kodak, Sevier County, or East Knoxville corridor within 60 minutes or less—often much sooner depending on traffic and weather. While en route, our dispatcher will keep you updated with a live ETA so you can prepare and feel confident help is on the way.
Are your emergency plumbing services available 24/7, and will I pay extra for nights, weekends, or holidays?
Yes. Plumbing emergencies rarely follow a convenient schedule, so our hotline is staffed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. We do have a modest after-hours service fee to ensure we can keep experienced technicians ready around the clock; however, we always quote that fee up front before sending a plumber so you know exactly what to expect. There are no surprise surcharges or hidden labor fees once the job is complete.
Are your plumbers licensed, insured, and experienced with Tennessee codes?
Absolutely. Every plumber on our emergency response team holds a current Tennessee state license, carries full liability and workers’ compensation insurance, and undergoes ongoing training to stay current on local building and plumbing codes specific to Sevier County. Many of our technicians have 10-plus years of field experience, giving them the practical knowledge to solve even complex problems quickly and safely.
What can I do before you arrive to limit damage from a plumbing emergency?
If it is safe to do so, locate and shut off the main water supply valve—usually found near your water meter or where the main line enters your home. For gas leaks, cut the gas supply and ventilate the area. Avoid using electrical appliances in flooded zones. Place towels or buckets under active leaks, and switch off the breaker to affected circuits if water is near outlets. Never use chemical drain cleaners in a backup, as they can worsen clogs and create hazards for our technicians.
How can I reduce the likelihood of future plumbing emergencies?
Schedule annual plumbing inspections, flush your water heater to remove sediment, install leak-detection devices, insulate exposed pipes before winter, and avoid pouring grease or non-flushable items down drains. We offer preventative maintenance plans in Kodak that include camera sewer line checks, pressure tests, and fixture tune-ups. These small, proactive steps often reveal issues early—saving you the stress and cost of an unexpected emergency call.
