What Is Considered A Plumbing Emergency For Homeowners?
A plumbing emergency is any problem that risks water damage, sewage exposure, gas safety, or loss of service. Common emergencies include burst or actively leaking pipes, slab leaks, sewage backups, no-drain situations affecting multiple fixtures, gas leaks or damaged gas lines, and water heater leaks that threaten flooding.
