A split or burst supply line
Name the spot the water is escaping from, and say if it pours or only drips. A split pipe or a failed fitting can soak walls and floors well beyond the break.
Emergency Plumbing in Carlsbad
Burst pipes, drains pushing sewage back up, toilets running over, leaking water heaters and houses with no water are what this page is for. Call and describe it, and the problem gets looked at.
Availability varies with the provider, where you are, how many technicians are free and how busy the day is, so we cannot guarantee that any particular service will be offered.
Problems this page covers
Sewage backing up
Rising sewage at a floor drain, tub or toilet means the drain line or the sewer lateral is blocked somewhere. Name the affected fixtures so the plumber can start in the right place.
A toilet that overflows
When a toilet overflows, call. Mention whether the nearby sinks and tub are slow to drain too.
A water heater leaking at the base
Water pooling under a tank heater is a reason to call. Tell us where it collects and whether it is still growing.
No hot water or no water at all
No hot water points to the water heater, while no water at all can come from a failed line. Tell us which of the two you have when you call.
What to tell us when you call
Tell us where in the house the problem is, what you can see or hear and when it started. If water is running, say so, and name any fixture that has stopped working.
Frequently asked questions
Is emergency service available at any hour?
