Common Plumbing Emergencies
Toilet Overflow.
Bathrooms are usually close to other areas of the house, like bedrooms, living rooms, front areas, and so on. It’s advised that if your toilet begins to overflow, you shut off the plumbing in your house, and call a local plumber right away.
Burst Pipes.
Maybe the water pressure was faulty. Maybe the pipes froze. Maybe a section of piping was slowly weakening until it finally gave out. Whatever the cause and case may be, no one wants to in the world to wake up to a burst pipe. It can cause severe water damage and a lot of financial headaches, so if it happens, call the plumbers you trust.
Rust.
Rust can originate from leaky pipes or dank spaces, and it can slowly weaken the structural integrity of your home plumbing system. If left unchecked, rust can also end up in the water supply, perhaps rendering the water in your home non-potable.
Sewer Backup.
If enough debris—like grease, hair, toilet paper, and other discarded material—winds up sticking together somewhere in your home sewer line, it can cause a major backup. This could result in toilet overflow, overall poor drainage, or even contamination.
Water Heater Malfunction.
Water heaters degrade over time, and can end up bursting if they become too weak. So it’s crucial that you get your water heater regularly checked by an experienced and trusted plumber.
