Is It a Plumbing Emergency?
If waiting means more damage or a safety risk, call now:
Sewage Coming Up
Through a floor drain, tub or basement toilet. Stop using water.
A Pipe That Burst or Froze
Shut off the main and call.
A Sump Pump That Quit in a Storm
The pit is rising and the rain isn't stopping.
A Water Heater Leaking From the Tank
A leaking tank only gets worse.
A Gas Smell
Get out, then call Nicor Gas or 911 from outside. We'll repair it once it's safe.
A Leak You Can't Find
A growing ceiling stain or a meter that won't stop.
The Emergencies We See in Tinley Park Homes
Most of the emergency calls our Tinley Park office takes fall into three groups.
Storm Nights
Big storms bring two kinds of trouble at once: sump pits filling and sewers backing up. A dead sump pump during a downpour is one of our most urgent calls.
Deep Freezes
Cold snaps like January 2014 and the January 2019 polar vortex split pipes in exterior walls, garages and spigot lines. Most start leaking once they thaw. See burst pipe repair.
Original Equipment Failing
In homes from the 1980s and 1990s, the water heater, sump pump and ejector pump are often the first things to go, and they tend to go at the worst time.
