Part 2: ⚙️ Our Core 24/7 Emergency Plumbing Services
(This section explicitly answers the user’s question, “What Services Are Offered?”)
2.1. Burst Pipes and Major Leaks
- The Problem: Freezing temperatures (rare but dangerous in AZ), severe water pressure, or corrosion can cause pipes to rupture.
- Emergency Service: Immediate isolation and shut-off of the main water supply, followed by pipe section replacement or repair (PEX, copper, or PVC).
- Local Focus: Common calls for burst pipes in older homes in Mesa and Tempe due to aging copper infrastructure.
2.2. Main Line Sewer Backups and Clogs
- The Problem: When sewage or foul water backs up into your shower, tub, or toilet, indicating a main sewer line blockage.
- Emergency Service: Using specialized equipment (power augers and emergency hydro-jetting) to clear the main line and restore sanitation.
- Prevention: We use Sewer Scope Camera Inspection to determine the exact cause (tree roots, collapsed lines) after the immediate emergency is cleared.
2.3. Water Heater Failures (Leaking or No Hot Water)
- The Problem: A water heater that is leaking from the tank (a total failure) or completely fails to produce hot water, especially critical during the cooler Arizona nights.
- Emergency Service: Immediate unit replacement (gas or electric) or emergency repair of T&P valves and heating elements to quickly restore service.
2.4. Gas Line Leaks (Safety First)
- The Problem: The smell of rotten eggs, indicating a potential natural gas leak from a furnace, water heater, or appliance line.
- Emergency Service: Immediate response. We work with your gas company to shut off the gas, locate the leak using professional detection equipment, and perform permanent line repair to ensure the safety of your home in Fountain Hills or Paradise Valley.
2.5. Faulty Fixtures and Overflowing Toilets
- The Problem: A toilet or sink that won’t stop running or is actively overflowing and cannot be controlled by the fixture shut-off valve.
- Emergency Service: Repair or replacement of faulty toilet internal components (flapper, fill valve) or quick repair of fixture lines.
Part 3: COST TRANSPARENCY: EMERGENCY RATES
Emergency Surcharge Notice: All emergency plumbing calls (after 5 PM, weekends, and holidays) include a non-negotiable surcharge for immediate dispatch and after-hours labor. This fee ensures we can maintain 24/7 readiness and protect your home in Phoenix and Scottsdale when other companies are closed.
