No flow: The loss of running water could be caused by a clog, or corrosion in your main water line.
Water leaks: Whether water is dripping from the ceiling, or a pipe has burst and is flooding your basement, call before the damage becomes irreparable.
Toilet overflows: They’re messy and unsanitary, but homeowners don’t always treat overflowing toilets as emergencies. Know better and call us to check the vent pipe filler float, and other components.
No hot water: A malfunctioning water heater hot water, shower mixing valve, or even a gas line could be the culprit.
Blockages: Severe clogs in your drains or toilets can lead to unhealthy backups and overflows, creating potential health hazards. We have the expertise and equipment to clear even the most stubborn blockages.
Sewer issues: Breaks and blocks in your sewer line can impact your entire plumbing system.
Gas Leaks: Gas line leaks pose immediate safety hazards.
Pump failure: A malfunctioning sump pump can leave your home vulnerable to flooding, mold, and water damage.
If You’re the Victim of a Plumbing Disaster
When you’re faced with a plumbing emergency, don’t get caught off guard by the sudden urgency and dread. Your response can mitigate the risk of injury and property damage until professional assistance arrives. Here’s a comprehensive guide on what to do in such scenarios:
- Shut off the water: It is crucial to halt the water flow to prevent further damage. Locate and turn off the main water shutoff valve.
- Assess the situation: Quickly determine the source and severity of the problem.
- Turn off electrical appliances: If the water has spread near electrical outlets or appliances, shutting off power at the circuit breaker eliminates the risk of electrocution or electrical fires.
- Call Service Minds Benjamin Franklin Plumbing: Tell us about your findings from Step 2, whether we’re dealing with a burst pipe, an overflowing toilet, or a leaky water heater.
- Contain the damage: Use any available means – towels, buckets, or bowls – to collect water and stop its spread. Move any valuables or electronics away from the affected area.
