What qualifies as a plumbing emergency?
A plumbing emergency is any situation that threatens immediate property damage, creates health hazards, or leaves your home without essential water services. This includes burst pipes, severe leaks flooding your home, sewer backups, gas line leaks, complete water heater failures, or any plumbing issue that cannot safely wait until regular business hours. If you're unsure whether your situation is an emergency, call us at 587-834-3668 — we're happy to assess your situation over the phone.
How quickly can an emergency plumber arrive in Calgary?
We maintain strategically positioned service vehicles throughout the Calgary region to ensure the fastest possible response. For life-threatening situations like gas leaks, we prioritize immediate dispatch. Our goal is to minimize damage and restore your peace of mind as quickly as possible.
What should I do while waiting for the emergency plumber?
If safe to do so, shut off the main water supply to stop flooding. For burst pipes, turn off your home's water at the main shut-off valve. If there's a gas leak, evacuate immediately and call 911, then contact us. Move valuables away from water damage. Take photos for insurance purposes if possible. For overflowing toilets, stop using all plumbing fixtures. Our emergency dispatch team will provide specific guidance based on your situation when you call.
