What to Do During a Plumbing Emergency
While waiting for our emergency plumbing team to arrive, there are a few actions you can take to protect your home and prevent further damage:
- Stop the Water first, before anything else
- Find the Source which is often not where the water is showing up
- Show You the Problem and what it's going to take
- Quote the Repair before we start, including anything we find along the way
- Make It Safe Tonight if the permanent fix needs daylight, parts, or an excavation
- Schedule the Follow-Up on the spot if there is one
Taking these steps will help reduce water damage while you wait for professional assistance.
Sewer Line Problems and Plumbing Emergencies
The single most common after-hours call we run is a main line backing up. Clearing it gets you through the night but a main that backs up once usually backs up again and the reason is almost always sitting in the pipe: roots, a belly or a line that's failing.
That's why we follow these up with a sewer camera inspection rather than just clearing and leaving. If the line's sound then hydro jetting keeps it clear but if it isn't you'll want to know before the next holiday weekend. See our sewer line repair page for what that involves.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it an emergency or can it wait until morning?
If water is actively damaging the house or sewage is backing up inside, call now. If it's a slow drain or one fixture out of service then waiting until morning is fine.
Do you charge more for after-hours calls?
Emergency work is priced differently than a scheduled appointment and we'll tell you the number before we do anything so there's no surprise on the invoice.
Where's my main water shut-off?
In most Las Vegas homes it's near the front hose bib or in a covered box between the sidewalk and the house.
