What Is Considered A Plumbing Emergency For Homeowners?
A plumbing emergency is any issue that risks flooding, sewage exposure, or loss of water and needs same-day service. Examples include burst or actively leaking pipes, sewage backups or toilet overflows, a fully clogged main drain, a failed sump pump during storms, no water to the home, and water heater leaks. We provide 24/7 emergency response and same-day service with licensed, insured techs and advanced diagnostics in Elgin and nearby areas.
Quick checks:
- Shut off your main water valve.
- Cut power to electric heaters or set gas to pilot.
- Avoid using drains until cleared.
