When Do You Need Emergency Plumbing?

Not every plumbing call is an emergency. Indeed, depending upon the circumstances, it can sometimes wait a few days until you have time in your schedule and can call in a plumber when it’s convenient to you. But plumbing doesn’t always follow strict timetables, and as nice as it might be to schedule repairs at your convenience, sometime an emergency call is necessary. We happily provide emergency services for homeowners in need, but before you incur the added expense, you should consider when an emergency call is necessary. Here’s a few guidelines

It Can’t Wait

This is the most obvious factor in determining whether emergency repairs are needed. If you shut off the water to your home, will it halt the problem? For example, will water stop coming out of the leak? If so, how long can you comfortably go without water until a service can get there? If it happens in the early hours of the morning on a weekday, you may be able to sit tight until normal business hours. If it takes place on a weekend or some other time, however, you need to get the problem fixed without having to wait. Generally speaking, if it will take more than a few hours to wait for regular plumbing service, you should probably call in an emergency service.

It’s Causing Damage

Sometimes, simply shutting off the water won’t help the problem, and the longer you wait, the more damage could be inflicted. It may also be a situation where waiting can disrupt the normal functions of the household: costing you sleep before a workday, for instance, or preventing basic tasks like using the toilet or meal preparation. In those cases, you should consider emergency service, since the added cost will pay off in getting your household back up to speed again.
