FAQs
What makes your plumbers ‘licensed professionals’ in South Pittsburg?
Every technician on our emergency team holds a current Tennessee Journeyman or Master Plumbing License issued by the Tennessee Board for Licensing Contractors. In addition, we are fully insured, background-checked, drug-screened, and required to complete a minimum of 40 hours of continuing education each year. This combination of state licensing, insurance, and ongoing training ensures any work we perform in your South Pittsburg home or business meets or exceeds all local plumbing and building codes.
What types of emergency plumbing problems can you handle?
We respond to virtually any plumbing crisis, including burst or frozen pipes, major leaks, overflowing or blocked toilets, sewage backups, broken water heaters, gas or water line breaks, slab leaks, sump pump failures, and severe drain blockages. If water, wastewater, or gas is escaping where it shouldn’t—or plumbing stoppages threaten to damage property—call us immediately and we’ll dispatch a licensed professional to resolve the issue safely.
How fast can you arrive at my property in South Pittsburg during an emergency?
Because our service hub is located right in the South Pittsburg area and we keep fully stocked vehicles on standby, our average door-to-door response time is 45–60 minutes. Weather, traffic, and the volume of simultaneous emergencies can affect arrival times, but we always give you an accurate ETA when you call and keep you updated en route.
Are your emergency plumbing services available 24/7, even on weekends and holidays?
Yes. Plumbing disasters don’t keep office hours, so neither do we. Our dispatch center is staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, including Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s Day. When you call, a live representative will answer, gather the needed details, and immediately mobilize the closest licensed technician.
How much will an emergency plumbing visit cost, and do you provide upfront pricing?
We charge a flat diagnostic fee that covers travel to your location, a full inspection, and an itemized written estimate. Once we explain your options, you approve the work and price before we start. Because every situation is unique, final costs depend on factors such as parts required, labor time, and after-hours rates, but you’ll never be surprised by hidden charges or overtime add-ons that weren’t disclosed first.
What should I do while waiting for the emergency plumber to arrive?
1) Shut off the main water valve (usually near the water meter) to stop additional flooding. 2) If a gas line leak is suspected, leave the building immediately and call 911 from a safe location. 3) Turn off electricity to flooded areas at the breaker panel if it’s safe to do so. 4) Move valuables, electronics, and furniture out of standing water. 5) Avoid using chemical drain cleaners or makeshift fixes—they can worsen damage or create safety hazards. 6) Take photos of the affected areas for insurance purposes. Then relax; help is on the way and our licensed professional will handle the rest.
