Emergency Plumbing FAQs

You would call an emergency plumber for urgent plumbing issues that pose an immediate threat to your home, safety, or health. These situations often involve significant water damage, gas leaks, or complete system failures that cannot wait for regular business hours.

Common reasons to call an emergency plumber include:

  • Burst pipes: A burst pipe can cause extensive flooding and damage to your property.
  • Severe water leaks: If a leak is substantial and uncontrollable, it could cause water damage or flooding.
  • Blocked drains or toilets: Major blockages can disrupt your plumbing system and cause backups.
  • Gas leaks: Any suspected gas leak should be treated as an emergency due to the risk of explosion or poisoning.
  • No hot water: In some cases, a lack of hot water, especially in cold weather, may be considered an emergency if it impacts health and safety.

In these urgent situations, a licensed emergency plumber can assess and resolve the issue quickly to prevent further damage. Read our plumbing emergency guide for more advice.

You should call an emergency plumber when a plumbing issue presents an immediate threat to safety, health, or property. Emergency plumbers are available 24/7, so you can contact them anytime—day or night—to address urgent problems.

  • Health risks: Issues like sewage backups or contaminated water lines can pose serious health hazards, making it vital to resolve them quickly.
  • Life-threatening situations: Gas leaks or burst hot water systems are life-threatening emergencies that require immediate action due to the risk of explosion or poisoning.
  • Property damage: Major water leaks, burst pipes, or blocked drains can cause severe flooding, leading to costly structural damage, mould, and other long-term issues.

In any of these cases, delaying a repair can exacerbate the situation. That’s why our emergency plumbers are available around the clock to address such critical issues, ensuring safety and minimising damage.

The actions you take while waiting for the plumber will depend on the specific type of emergency. In general, you should focus on ensuring safety and minimising damage, which may involve turning off the water or gas supply, containing leaks, and avoiding the use of affected plumbing fixtures.

Here’s a more detailed guide based on the situation:

  1. Turn off the water supply: If there’s a burst pipe or serious leak, your priority should be to stop the water flow. Locate your main water shut-off valve, typically near the water meter or outside the house, and turn it off. This will help prevent further flooding and property damage​.
  2. Contain the leak: Use towels, buckets, or any absorbent materials to soak up and contain the water. Place these around the leak or under the affected area to limit the spread of water into other parts of your home.
  3. Shut off the gas (if relevant): If you suspect a gas leak, immediately turn off the gas supply at the main valve, usually found near the gas meter. After that, open windows and doors to ventilate the area. Don’t use electrical switches, appliances, or open flames until the plumber arrives​.
  4. Avoid using plumbing fixtures: If your emergency involves blocked toilets or drains, it’s important to stop using any fixtures that are connected to the problem. Continuing to use them could worsen the blockage and lead to a more severe backup.
  5. Clear the area: Move any valuables, electrical items, or furniture away from the leak or affected area to minimise the risk of water damage. This helps protect your belongings and reduces potential hazards like electrical shorts.
  6. Contact your plumber for advice: Call your plumber for further instructions after taking these steps. We’re available 24/7 and can often provide immediate guidance over the phone to help you manage the situation safely until we arrive.

By following these steps, you can limit the damage and ensure the safety of your home while waiting for professional help. For rentals, please take a look at our article, Emergency Plumbing for Renters.

A plumbing emergency is any issue that poses an immediate risk to your property, health, or safety. These situations require urgent attention to prevent further damage, and failure to act quickly can result in significant harm.

Common emergencies include:

  1. Burst pipes: A burst pipe can lead to severe flooding, causing damage to walls, floors, and possessions, as well as increasing the risk of mould growth​.
  2. Sewage backups: Sewage in your home creates unsanitary conditions that can lead to illness and contamination, making it a top priority for urgent attention​.
  3. Gas leaks: A gas leak is considered a life-threatening emergency due to the risk of explosion or poisoning. If you suspect a leak, turn off the gas supply and call an emergency plumber​.
  4. Overflowing toilets or drains: Uncontrolled water from overflowing toilets or drains can cause immediate damage to your home and may pose health risks due to contamination.
  5. No water supply: A sudden and unexplained loss of water disrupts essential activities and could indicate a serious plumbing issue that requires prompt diagnosis and repair​.

In addition to these emergencies, anything you want urgently attended to, such as minor leaks or issues that could escalate, can also be considered an emergency. Local Plumbing & Gas Co. provides rapid response plumbing for these situations, ensuring fast service when needed most. Please note that emergency services often incur higher rates due to the quick response time, but they provide peace of mind when immediate action is necessary.
