Split or burst pipes
Once a pipe splits, the water keeps moving into the walls, ceilings and floors around it. Stopping that flow comes first for our plumber, who then finds the break and repairs or replaces the damaged section.
Emergency Plumbing in St. Clair Shores
Sewage in a floor drain, a pipe that has burst and a toilet flooding the bathroom all mean one thing, pick up the phone. Say where you are and what has happened, and we match you with a local plumber.
We take emergency calls from St. Clair Shores homeowners and from the six other towns on our service list.
Problems that cannot wait
Sewage coming up a drain
Sewage in a floor drain or a tub tells you the line to the city sewer is blocked or broken past the fixture. After clearing it, the plumber runs a camera down the pipe to find what caused it.
Overflowing toilets
A toilet that rises toward the rim and stays there is blocked past the bowl. The plumber clears the stoppage with an auger, then flushes again to confirm the waste is moving down the line.
A leaking water heater
Water on the floor under a tank heater may come from a fitting that has loosened, a valve that failed or a tank rusted through. Tracking the drip to its source tells us, and then you, if repair is worthwhile or replacement is the better call.
Water that will not come on
No water at all can come from a failed valve, a frozen line or a break in the service pipe. The plumber traces where the supply stops.
When a cold snap hits
In St. Clair Shores the average January night bottoms out at 21°F, and about 115 days in a typical year reach 32°F or below. The pipe freeze risk checker rates your own setup.
If a tap runs dry on a cold morning, give us a call and name the fixtures with no water, and a plumber is matched to your job.
