Know the Signs

Is It a Plumbing Emergency?

If waiting means more damage or a safety risk, call:

Sewage in the Basement

Through the floor drain, a basement toilet or the tub.

A Burst Pipe

Shut off the main and call.

A Dead Sump Pump in a Storm

The pit is filling and the rain keeps coming.

A Leaking Water Heater

A leaking tank won't fix itself.

A Gas Smell

Get out and call Nicor Gas or 911 from outside. We'll repair it once it's safe.

Water You Can't Find

A ceiling stain that's growing or a meter that won't stop.

Local Knowledge

The Emergencies We See in Naperville Homes

Most emergency calls our Naperville office takes fall into three groups.

Root Backups

Roots are the number one cause of sewer backups in Naperville, and they often choose a holiday weekend. Sewage backup service stops it and shows you the cause.

Frozen Pipes Over Garages

Many Naperville homes have rooms over attached garages, and the pipes in those floors freeze first. See burst pipe repair.

Storm Nights

Heavy rain fills sump pits and sewer lines at the same time. A sump pump with a battery backup keeps the basement dry when the power goes out.

Water Heaters That Quit

In homes from the building boom, water heaters are often on their third replacement. When a tank lets go, it can put dozens of gallons on the basement floor. See water heater repair.

"So it's Christmas Eve and my sewer is backed up. J. Blanton did not hesitate or cancel my appointment. George and Mike were excellent! They were not rushed, answered all my questions. Very knowledgeable and honest, which goes a long way especially as a first time home owner."

"Super helpfull. They called back on a Sunday late afternoon and came out that evening. 3 plumbers came to the house on Monday to finish the job. Joe, George and Anthony. Highly recommend them. No one wants to have Sewage backing up, they treated it like an emergency and kept at it."

"Josh Reid came by on Saturday night around 8pm to help us with an emergency plumbing issue. He was beyond friendly and very honest with us. He was able to help us route our line to stop the back flow that was occurring in the house. I could tell he really cared about our situation and didn't seem annoyed at all considering it was Saturday night."
