Examples of a plumbing emergency would be a sewer backup, broken pipe, flooded basement, a sewer line break, frozen pipes, suspected pipe leak in the wall, or leaking hot water tank. However, other plumbing problems can become an emergency as well depending on a someone’s circumstances. For instance, if someone with a single bathroom has a badly clogged toilet, that is likely an urgent situation as well.
