How to Know When It’s a Plumbing Emergency

Not every plumbing problem requires immediate service, but when one does, the consequences of waiting can be severe. You may be dealing with a true plumbing emergency if you notice:

  • Uncontrolled water leaks or flooding: A burst pipe or broken water line can quickly cause water damage to floors, walls, and electrical systems.
  • Sewage backup: If wastewater is coming up through drains, tubs, or toilets, it’s a serious health hazard that needs our professional attention right away.
  • No running water: Losing access to clean water isn’t just inconvenient—it can make your home unlivable until the issue is resolved.
  • Frozen or burst pipes: During cold Reno winters, frozen pipes can burst and cause costly damage if not handled quickly.

If you’re unsure whether your situation counts as an emergency, it’s best to play it safe and call DeHart Plumbing, Heating, and Air Inc.

What to Do in a Plumbing Emergency

A fast response can make all the difference when you’re facing a plumbing disaster. Here’s what to do while waiting for our professionals to arrive:

  1. Turn off the water: Locate your home’s main shut-off valve and close it to stop the flow of water and prevent further damage.
  2. Shut off electricity if necessary: If water is near electrical outlets or appliances, turn off power to the affected area from your breaker panel to stay safe.
  3. Move valuables and furniture: Protect your belongings by moving them out of the wet area and using towels or buckets to contain any leaks.
  4. Avoid using plumbing fixtures: Don’t flush toilets, run faucets, or use drains until the issue has been repaired—especially during backups.
  5. Contact Us: Our emergency plumbing team will respond quickly, diagnose the issue, and make necessary repairs.

Don’t let just any plumbing contractor handle an emergency plumbing scenario. Our commitment to integrity means you’ll never face hidden fees or rushed fixes—just dependable service when you need it most.
