This does raise a question in people\u2019s minds: What actually counts as an emergency? We\u2019ll answer that question as best we can.<\/p>\n

An emergency is whatever you think is an emergency<\/h3>\n

In other words, if the problem seems urgent to you, don\u2019t overthink it: call a professional plumber immediately. It might turn out that the problem isn\u2019t as serious as you thought it was\u2014but it\u2019s much better to err on the side of caution, especially when it comes to plumbing issues where damage to your home is a significant possibility. It isn\u2019t a bother for us to get to you if you think you\u2019ve got an emergency situation.<\/p>\n

Some specific plumbing emergencies<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • Overflowing toilet: <\/strong>When a toilet won\u2019t stop running and starts to flood, you should have a plumber on the scene right away. Make sure you shut off the freed line valve (if the toilet has one) and then call for assistance.<\/li>\n
  • Busted pipe:<\/strong> This is a problem that often occurs because of frozen pipes in winter. To avoid serious flooding, have professional plumbers on the job right away.<\/li>\n
  • Extensive clogs:<\/strong> A single sink clog might be something you can break through with a plunger. But when there are multiple clogs occurring, it\u2019s probable that there is a deeper problem down in the sewer line and drainage system. This could result in back-ups around the house and even sewage flooding into the basement.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
