Emergencies we handle
If it can’t wait until morning, it is what we do. Day or night, we are on call.
Burst & Frozen Pipes
A burst or frozen pipe can flood a home in minutes. We stop the water, find the break, and repair it fast.
Sewer & Drain Backups
Sewage backing up into tubs or floor drains is a health hazard. We clear it and find the real cause.
No Water / Well Pump Failure
Lost all water? We diagnose well pumps, pressure tanks, and main lines to get it flowing again.
Water Heater Leaks & No Hot Water
A leaking or failed water heater repaired or replaced, often the same day, so you are not left cold.
Sump Pump Failure & Flooding
When a storm knocks out your pump, we get the water out and your pump working before more damage hits.
Gas Leaks & Major Leaks
Smell gas or have water pouring in? Leave, call your gas utility, then call us, we respond 24/7.
Right now
Before we arrive, what to do
A few quick steps can limit the damage while we are on the way.
Shut off the water
Find your main shut-off valve and close it to stop the flooding at the source.
Kill power if needed
If water is near outlets or your electrical panel, shut off power to that area safely.
Smell gas? Leave
Get everyone out, do not flip switches or light anything, and call from outside.
When to call now
Don't wait if you see this
Some problems can wait for a scheduled visit. These cannot, call us right away.
Water pouring or pooling fast
If water is flooding in and you cannot stop it at the fixture, shut the main and call now.
Sewage smell or backup
Sewage in tubs, toilets, or floor drains is a health hazard that needs immediate help.
No water anywhere
A whole-house loss of water, often a well, pump, or main line issue, is an emergency.
A leak you can't stop
A steady leak you cannot shut off at the valve will keep causing damage until we arrive.
Rotten egg gas smell
A sulfur or gas smell means leave the home, call the gas utility, then call us.
No heat or hot water in a freeze
In freezing Maryland weather, no heat or hot water can lead to frozen, bursting pipes.

Local conditions
Maryland emergencies we see most
Our weather, soils, and well systems create a few emergencies we handle again and again.
Frozen & Burst Pipes
Maryland cold snaps freeze and split pipes in walls, crawlspaces, and unheated areas, then flood when they thaw.
Storm Sump Failures
Heavy rain plus power outages overwhelm or kill sump pumps, flooding basements across the county.
Sewer Backups & Well Failures
Saturated ground backs up sewers, and well pumps and tanks fail, cutting off water to the whole home.
Be ready before it happens
Know this before an emergency
A little prep makes a flood or freeze far less costly. Most Montgomery County homes are on WSSC water, while many in Clarksburg, Damascus, and Poolesville are on private wells, so knowing your setup matters when seconds count.

Emergency plumbing FAQ
Real answers for the emergencies Maryland homeowners actually face.
My pipes froze during a Maryland cold snap. What should I do?
Shut off your main water valve right away so a thawing pipe does not flood the house, and do not thaw pipes with an open flame. Open a faucet to relieve pressure, then call us. We locate frozen and burst pipes, repair them, and help you prevent it next winter.
Heavy storms knocked out my power and my sump pump failed. Can you help?
Yes. Storm outages are exactly when sump pumps quit and basements flood. We respond 24/7 to get the water out and your pump working, and we can add a battery backup so the next storm does not catch you off guard.
My well stopped giving water. Is that an emergency you handle?
Absolutely. Many homes around Clarksburg, Damascus, and Poolesville are on private wells, and a failed well pump or pressure tank means no water at all. We diagnose and repair well systems day or night to restore your water.
Sewage is backing up after heavy rain. What now?
Stop running water immediately so you do not add to the backup, keep everyone away from the contaminated area, and call us. Saturated ground and root intrusion cause backups across Montgomery County, and we clear the line and camera it to find the cause.
Where is my main water shut-off, and should I turn it off?
If water is flooding in, yes, shut it off. WSSC-served homes usually have a main valve where the line enters the house, often near the water meter or front foundation wall, while well homes have a valve near the pressure tank. If you are not sure, call and we will talk you through it.
Do you charge extra for after-hours or weekend emergencies?
We give you clear, upfront pricing before any work begins, so you always approve the cost first. Call any hour and we will tell you exactly what to expect, no surprises.
How fast can you reach me in an emergency?
Because we are based right here and our crews cover Montgomery County every day, we can usually reach most towns quickly, and a real neighbor answers 24/7 to get a stocked truck moving the moment you call.
I smell gas. Is that a plumbing emergency?
Treat it as urgent. Leave the home, do not flip switches or light anything, and call your gas utility’s emergency line from outside, then call us. We handle gas line leaks and repairs 24/7.
