Emergency plumber in Lake Forest

What counts as an emergency

Water that you cannot shut off, sewage in the home, a pipe that has burst, or a household with no hot water overnight — those are the calls we treat as emergencies. A dripping faucet or a slow drain can usually wait for a scheduled visit the same or next day.

If you can, shut off the fixture or the house main and call us. We will tell you over the phone whether to leave the water off and how soon we can be there.

After hours and weekends

Posted hours are 7:30 AM to 8:30 PM, every day. Emergency calls outside that window are still answered when the problem cannot wait. You get a licensed plumber, an on-site assessment, and a price before work starts — including after hours. No surprise fees added at the end.

Before we get there

• Find the house shutoff before you need it — usually at the street side of the house, near the hose bib or in a box by the curb.
• Turn off the water heater if the tank is leaking. Gas to pilot, or the breaker for electric.
• Skip the drain chemicals. They rarely clear a real blockage and they make the repair more dangerous for whoever opens the line.
• Photograph the damage before cleanup if you plan to file an insurance claim.
