Not every plumbing issue requires a middle-of-the-night call, but some genuinely can't wait. Here's how to tell the difference.
Call Immediately
- Sewage backing up into the house
- Multiple fixtures backing up at once
- An overflowing toilet that won't stop
- A burst pipe or active flooding
- No water draining anywhere in the property
Can Usually Wait for Regular Hours
- A single slow drain in one fixture
- A running toilet that isn't overflowing
- A minor, isolated leak that's been contained
When in Doubt, Call
If you're not sure whether something qualifies as an emergency, it's better to call and describe the situation than to wait and risk water damage or a health hazard from sewage exposure.
