Emergency Plumbing FAQs
What counts as a plumbing emergency?
Burst or leaking pipes, sewage backing up into the home, no water, a leaking water heater, flooding from a failed sump pump, and any suspected gas leak are all emergencies. If water is spreading or you can’t use your plumbing, call right away.
What should I do while I wait for an emergency plumber?
Shut off your main water valve to stop the flow, turn off the water heater if there is a leak, and keep everyone away from sewage or standing water near outlets. If you smell gas, leave the building and call 911 or your gas utility from outside.
Where is my main water shutoff valve?
In most Houston-area homes, the main shutoff is near where the water line enters the house, often in the garage, on an exterior wall, or near the water heater. There is also a valve at the meter box near the street. It is worth finding yours before an emergency happens.
Do you offer 24/7 emergency plumbing?
Yes. Heaton Plumbing offers round-the-clock emergency plumbing service across Greater Houston, including nights, weekends, and holidays.
What should I do if my pipes freeze?
Shut off the main water valve, open the affected faucets, and gently warm the pipe with a hair dryer or space heater kept at a safe distance. Never use an open flame. If a pipe has burst or you can’t locate the freeze, call us.
Can you handle emergencies at businesses?
Yes. We respond to plumbing emergencies at restaurants, offices, and rental properties. Learn more about our commercial plumbing services.
