What We Fix During An Emergency
No plumbing emergency is too big or too urgent for our team. Our licensed technicians arrive fully equipped to diagnose and repair most emergencies in a single visit.
- Burst or leaking pipes
- Overflowing toilets or drains
- Water heater failures or leaks
- Blocked sinks, tubs, or showers
- Sewer line damage or blockages
- Indoor flooding or standing water
Our technicians provide emergency repairs for residential, commercial, and multi-unit properties, including HOA-managed communities.
What To Do Before The Plumber Arrives
While our emergency plumbing team is on the way to your San Jose home, a few quick actions can significantly reduce water damage to your property:
- Shut off the main water supply. Your main shutoff is typically near the water meter, under the kitchen sink, or in a utility closet. Turning it off immediately stops water flow and limits damage.
- Turn off the water heater. If your water supply is shut off, turn off your water heater to prevent overheating or pressure buildup.
- Don’t flush or use drains if you suspect a sewer backup – this can cause sewage to back up further into the home.
- Move valuables and electronics away from any standing water or active leaks if it is safe to do so.
- Document the damage with photos or video for your insurance claim before cleanup begins.
Not sure where your shutoff valve is or what to do next? Call us, our team can walk you through it on the phone while we dispatch a plumber to your door.
