Signs You’re Having a Plumbing Emergency
Just because you have plumbing problems, that doesn’t mean you need emergent repairs or services. The following plumbing issues are not considered emergency-worthy:
- Dripping faucets, hoses, or any other water source.
- A one-time sink, tub, or toilet clog.
- Slow drainage or pooling in your tub/shower.
- Hidden mold/mildew due to water exposure.
Signs to look out for in your plumbing system that would qualify for an emergency service include:
- No water coming from taps
- No hot or cold water
- Overflows, floods, and pipe bursts
- Poor water pressure
- Leaking pipes
Broken Pipes: A ruptured pipe has the potential to seriously damage the surrounding area.Â
Blocked Drains: Although blocked drains may appear to be a regular plumbing issue, they are considered an emergency in houses that only have one bathroom.
Frozen Pipes: Burst pipes are most common in the winter when pipes freeze and expand more readily. Whether your pipe is frozen or has already burst, call a professional to have it repaired immediately.
Overflowing Toilet: When a toilet overflows and backs up, it’s an emergency. If there’s just one restroom available, this can create an emergency.
No Hot Water: If your water heater is leaking or you don’t have any hot water at all, contact an emergency plumber to fix the problem and bring back your hot water. We provide free replacement quotes if your water heater is beyond repair.Â
Gas Leaks: If you smell a weird odor in your house, such as rotten eggs or sulfur, or if your carbon monoxide detectors go off, we strongly recommend that you evacuate immediately and contact us for emergency gas leak detection and repair.
How Leaks Can Cause Bigger Problems
The severity of plumbing crises varies, but they should all be addressed quickly to prevent any additional damage. Serious water damage and even the potential for mold development might result from a busted pipe. The lives, health, and safety of those you love are at risk due to a gas line leak. With the knowledge and tools to handle any plumbing issue, our dependable emergency plumbers are here to help.
When your plumbing system is cleaned and maintained regularly, emergencies can often be avoided. Our Oklahoma City emergency plumbers can examine your plumbing system and take care of minor water- and gas-related issues before they develop into more serious ones. Call Suntech for plumbing emergencies related to plumbing fixtures, water heaters, sewer lines, gas lines, and more.Â

What You Should Do During a Plumbing EmergencyÂ
A plumbing emergency may not be remedied with any at-home tips or steps, and you may just have to call a professional right away. However, if you’re unsure about the severity of your plumbing problems and feel confident in your skill, then try these steps for emergency DIY plumbing:
- Turn off water sources and heating devices to prevent any hazards: To turn off your water in a plumbing emergency, find your water meter and turn off the water to your house. Your water meter will most likely be outside on or around your house, in your basement, or laundry room. To check that your water is off, go to a faucet inside your home and turn it on, if there is water flowing then your water is not turned off. If no water flows from the faucet, then you know you successfully turned off the water to your home.
- Locate and isolate any leaks: Turn off the water to halt the leak and clear up any standing water to prevent more damage while you wait for the plumber to come. If you suspect a gas leak, switch off the gas and leave the house before contacting a professional.
- If your drains are clogged, remove any debris: If you notice sewer water backup or deeply clogged drains, stop running water and call your city, HOA, or village to see if there is a sewer backup near you.
Calling a professional to handle any plumbing repair during an emergency is the best thing you can do for your home to guarantee that the job is done correctly.
