A split or burst supply line
Call about water spraying from a pipe or soaking through a wall. Say where you see it, and the plumber you hire either mends the line or fits a new piece where it is damaged.
Emergency Plumbing in San Jose
If a pipe is spraying, a drain is pushing sewage up or the water heater is dripping beneath the tank, the next step is a phone call to us. Tell us the room and what you see, and we connect a local plumber.
Give us the address and what you can see, and the plumber you hire takes it from there. Availability depends on the provider and your location.
Problems that count as urgent
Sewage backing up
When wastewater surfaces in a floor drain, tub or toilet, the line has stopped carrying it away. Tell us which fixtures are affected so the plumber you hire can look at the right section.
A toilet that overflows
Water spilling over the rim means the line behind the toilet is blocked or the fill valve will not close. A plumber clears or repairs whichever it is, and the toilet goes back to normal.
A water heater leaking at the base
Water collecting beneath a tank heater can mean the tank has failed. Give us the heater’s age and where it sits in the house, and the plumber you hire talks you through repair or replacement.
No hot water or no water at all
Cold showers from a tank heater or taps that give nothing both have causes a plumber can trace, from the heater to the supply line. Describe what stopped and when.
What to tell us when you call
Start with what is wrong and where in the house it is. Add whether the problem is one fixture or several, and give the address, so the plumber you hire arrives knowing which job to expect.
After the call
When the urgent part is over, the cause still needs a look. A worn fitting, a tired heater or a damaged line might need more work later, and the plumber you hire can explain what that involves.
