FAQs
What constitutes a plumbing emergency that warrants calling Prompt Response Plumbing in Kodak?
A plumbing emergency is any situation that threatens to damage your property, endanger health, or leave you without essential water service. Common examples include burst or frozen pipes, major leaks, sewage backups, overflowing toilets, no hot water during cold weather, gas line leaks, and water heater failures. If shutting off the main water valve doesn’t stop the problem or you feel unsafe, call us immediately—24/7—so we can mitigate damage and restore service.
How quickly can your technicians reach my home or business in Kodak during an emergency?
Our on-call team is based right here in Sevier County, allowing us to reach most addresses in Kodak within 60 minutes—often sooner. When you call, our dispatcher confirms your location, provides an estimated arrival time, and keeps you updated en route. Because we stock common repair parts on each service vehicle, most emergencies are resolved in a single visit.
Are your plumbers licensed, insured, and trained for emergency work?
Yes. Prompt Response Plumbing employs only Tennessee-licensed journeyman and master plumbers. Every technician carries full liability and workers’ compensation insurance and receives annual training in the latest codes, safety protocols, and rapid-response procedures. Our team is also background-checked for your peace of mind, and we follow CDC-recommended sanitation practices on every call.
What should I do before the emergency plumber arrives?
If it’s safe, locate and turn off the main water shut-off valve (usually where the main line enters your home). For localized leaks, use fixture shut-off valves. Switch off the water heater’s power or gas supply if water is leaking from it. Clear the area of valuables, pets, and small children, and mop up excess water to reduce floor damage. Do not attempt major repairs yourself—improper fixes can worsen the problem.
How much will an emergency plumbing service cost?
Emergency visits include a flat diagnostic fee that covers travel and assessment, even at night or on holidays. After diagnosing the issue, the technician provides a written, upfront price based on the scope of work—no hourly surprises. Typical emergency repairs range from $125 for minor leaks to $1,200+ for extensive pipe replacement, but we will not begin work until you approve the estimate. Financing options and major credit cards are accepted.
Do you guarantee your emergency repairs?
Absolutely. All emergency labor carries a 1-year workmanship warranty, and parts are covered by the manufacturers’ warranties—often 1 to 6 years. If the same problem recurs within the warranty period due to our workmanship, we return at no charge. We also offer optional service plans that include annual inspections to help prevent future emergencies.
