Broken Pipes
Leaks may or may not be an emergency. If a leak is fairly minor and you can create a temporary solution, it’s not an emergency. But if you have pipes that are completely broken or a leak that is gushing water, it’s definitely an emergency. When this happens, go ahead and turn off the water lines leading into your home so the leak does not continue.
Next, give our team a call to schedule your emergency plumbing service. Make sure you give us details about what happened and outline why it is an emergency so we can prioritize service for you. Then do your best to begin cleaning the mess.
The sooner you can get water up, the better the overall results will be. The longer the water stands, the more damage it will do. This includes damage to floors, drywall, and other items around your house. Plus, water can quickly lead to mold growth which is difficult to address.
Water Heater Problems
Any potential problems with your water heater should be considered an emergency. This is because while your water heater is a very sturdy appliance, it is also delicate in many ways. If a problem continues and corrosion begins to develop inside the tank, it is not reversible. Instead, you’ll find yourself having to replace your entire water heater. Catching and fixing water heater problems early can be the difference between a minor repair bill and a complete system overhaul.
Low or No Water Pressure
You may not think it’s alarming to have suddenly low water pressure. Maybe it’s just a fluke and the problem will resolve on its own. However, significantly low water pressure can indicate that there is damage to the lines leading into your house. Aside from impacting actual water pressure, this can also mean that your water quality is compromised.
Our team needs to figure out the source of the problem and get it fixed. If your water is losing pressure slowly, you may notice standing water in your yard or higher than normal water bills before the problem gets too bad. If possible, call for service sooner rather than later so we can address low water pressure before it’s so low that you can’t really use it.
