Emergency Plumbing in Edgewood
A burst pipe or a sewer backup does not wait for a convenient day. In Edgewood we quote a flat rate first and never add an emergency fee.
Limit the damage before we arrive
For a burst pipe, shut off the main water valve and call us. Edgewood is served by more than one water provider, so the meter location can differ from house to house. If you cannot find the shutoff, tell us and we will walk you through it.
For a sewage backup, stop running water in the house and keep people and pets away from the affected floor. For a leaking water heater, close the cold supply to the tank and shut off the gas or power to it.
Call right away if
- →Water is spraying or pooling inside
- →Several drains back up at once
- →There is no water at all
- →Hot water is gone and it is freezing out
Leave first, then call
Natural gas in Edgewood is supplied by Puget Sound Energy. If you smell gas, leave the building, do not flip switches or use a phone inside, and call your gas utility's emergency line from outside.
Once you are safe and the utility has dealt with the leak, call us for the plumbing side, such as a damaged gas line to a water heater or appliance.
If the problem turns out to be a failed water heater, a frozen line, or a pump that quit in a storm, we say what can be fixed on the spot and what needs a planned follow-up visit.
Call, text, or send a message, whichever is easiest in the moment.
If you are unsure whether it counts as an emergency, call anyway. We would rather hear from you early.
What happens after you call
Regular hours are Monday to Friday, 8 to 5. During those hours a real person answers. We talk through a likely cause, give you steps to keep the damage down, and send the next available plumber.
Whether the problem is on an older acreage property with a long service run or in a newer subdivision, the price is quoted flat before we start. Nothing is added because it is urgent.
