The True Cost of Waiting on Lincoln Park Emergency Plumbing Repair

The cost of waiting in a plumbing emergency is almost always far higher than the premium you’ll pay to an emergency plumber for immediate service.

Consider this – Lincoln Park emergency plumbers typically charge 1.5 to 3 times as much as their routine plumber counterparts working during regular business hours. And yet, that added cost is much lower than the price you’ll pay for restoration and mold remediation if you let water damage sit at all. So, while it may sound like an okay idea to let a plumbing disaster on a Saturday night wait until a Monday morning to address, the cost you don’t see right away will come back many times over down the road when you need to pay for added cleanup services.

Remember, a burst pipe can release gallons of water every minute. Waiting even a few hours can turn a $500-3,000 pipe repair job into $5,000-20,000 in water damage when you consider the subsequent cost of cleaning and restoration (replacing flooring, drywall, insulation, etc.). 

Additionally, mold growth can begin in under 24 hours, which means the longer you let water damage occur or sit, the more likely you are to need mold removal services later. And mold remediation isn’t cheap! Most estimates put the cost around $10-25 per square foot. That means mold growth after flooding in a 1,000 sq/ft basement could cost $10,000-25,000 for safe removal.

And those are just the easily quantifiable costs of waiting on emergency plumbing repair. There are also less obvious costs to consider like possible structural damage, insurance complications, mold-related illness, and disruption to your daily life.
