FAQs
What qualifies as a plumbing emergency and how quickly can you arrive in Sequatchie?
A plumbing emergency is any situation that threatens your property, health, or safety—such as burst pipes, severe leaks, overflowing toilets, sewage backups, or loss of water service. In Sequatchie, our on-call technicians are strategically dispatched and can usually reach your home or business within 60 minutes of your call, day or night.
Are your emergency plumbing services really available 24/7, even on weekends and holidays?
Yes. Plumbing problems don’t take a day off, so neither do we. Our emergency hotline is staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year—including weekends, nights, and all major holidays. No answering machines or third-party call centers; you’ll speak directly with a local Sequatchie dispatcher who can mobilize a licensed plumber immediately.
What should I do while waiting for the plumber to arrive to minimize damage?
First, shut off the main water valve or the local fixture valve to stop the flow of water. If you can’t locate it, our dispatcher will guide you over the phone. Next, turn off electricity in affected areas if water is near outlets or appliances. Contain the leak with buckets or towels, and avoid using chemical drain cleaners—they can worsen the problem or create safety hazards. Finally, take photos of the damage for insurance purposes.
How much does an emergency plumbing visit cost, and do you provide upfront pricing?
Emergency rates depend on the time of day, severity of the issue, parts required, and labor involved. Before any work begins, our technician performs a quick assessment and presents a written, flat-rate quote that includes all foreseeable costs—no hidden fees or overtime surprises. We also offer financing options and accept most major insurance coverages for qualifying water-damage claims.
Are your plumbers licensed, insured, and background-checked to work in Sequatchie County?
Absolutely. Every technician holds a current Tennessee Journeyman or Master Plumber license, carries full liability and workers’ compensation insurance, and undergoes annual background and drug screenings. We comply with all Sequatchie County building codes and pull permits when required, so you can trust that the repair will be safe and code-compliant.
Do you guarantee your emergency repair work, and what kind of warranty do you offer?
Yes. All emergency repairs come with a 1-year parts and labor warranty, and many manufacturer-supplied parts carry additional warranties of up to 25 years. If the same issue reoccurs within the covered period due to our workmanship or a defective part, we’ll return promptly at no extra charge to make it right.
