Emergency Plumbing Issues Explained

One of the most common emergency plumbing issues we encounter is a broken pipe. As Chicago-area plumbers, we see a lot of frozen pipes in the winter that break, causing a headache for homeowners and business owners alike. However, this is the not the only cause of broken pipes. Pipes in older homes can become weak and thin and brittle and break during normal use. Additionally, home or business accidents (like DIY projects gone wrong or machinery misuse) can result in broken pipes as well. Regardless of what causes it though, a broken pipe is a plumbing emergency! When you have a burst pipe, calling an emergency plumber is critical. The goal is to get the water turned off as soon as you notice it and then have a professional plumber fix it as quickly as possible so you can start the clean up process. Emergency plumbers have the tools and skills necessary to come in and fix a major plumbing problem 24/7 hours a day 365 days/year so you can get back to your normal life.

Another common plumbing emergency is a flooded home or business. When a pipe fitting comes loose, a clogged toilet, a toilet that keeps running, a hot water heater leaks, a washing machine supply line bursts, a toilet tank leaks, or anything else unfortunate happens to cause a flood, you’ll need an emergency plumberLicensed plumbers can go into your flooded office, business showroom, home basement, bathroom, laundry room, or kitchen and determine where the water is coming from so they can get the problem fixed right away. Afterwards, the cleanup process can begin to get the space back in good condition.

Toilets tend to have a lot of issues as well because they are used so frequently. In homes where there are fewer bathrooms, they get even more use, which makes them more likely to wear out faster and break (and also need to be fixed more quickly when they do). If you only have one bathroom and that toilet gets clogged or starts to leak, it can become a serious problem very quickly. When your only bathroom is out of order, give a local professional plumber a call to get it fixed fast. It will cost a little more than waiting for regular business hours, but the time saved is well worth it because you won’t have to go to a neighbor’s house or nearby store to use their bathroom for days until yours is functional again.
