When Is a Plumbing Problem an Emergency?

Not every plumbing problem requires emergency service, but some problems can cause serious damage if they are not addressed quickly.

  • Burst or leaking frozen pipes
  • Sewage backups
  • Overflowing fixtures you cannot stop

  • Significant water heater leaks

Common Questions

Emergency Plumbing FAQs

What counts as a plumbing emergency?

A plumbing problem is generally an emergency when waiting could cause significant water damage, create an unsafe or unsanitary condition, or leave essential plumbing unusable. Burst pipes, uncontrolled leaks, sewer backups, overflowing fixtures, failed sump pumps, and significant water heater leaks are common reasons to call an emergency plumber.

Do you offer same-day emergency plumbing service in Plymouth?

We prioritize urgent emergency plumbing calls and offer same-day appointments whenever availability allows. Brass Tacks Plumbing serves Plymouth and homeowners throughout the Twin Cities West Metro.

What should I do if a pipe bursts in my home?

If you can safely reach your main water shutoff, turn off the water to help limit additional damage and then call us. Stay away from standing water near electrical equipment or outlets. For other pipe, leak, fixture, and residential plumbing problems, learn more about our general plumbing services.

Is a sewer backup considered a plumbing emergency?

Yes. Sewage backing up into your home can create an unsanitary condition and may damage floors, walls, and belongings. If multiple drains are backing up or sewage is coming through a floor drain or fixture, contact an emergency plumber promptly.

Is a leaking water heater an emergency?

It can be. A significant or uncontrolled water heater leak can cause substantial damage and should be addressed quickly. We can diagnose the problem and determine whether water heater repair is appropriate or whether water heater replacement makes more sense.

Is having no hot water a plumbing emergency?

Not always. No hot water can be urgent, especially when a water heater has suddenly failed or there are signs of a leak, but it does not automatically mean the situation is an emergency. Call us and explain what is happening so we can help determine the appropriate next step.

What should I do if my sump pump stops working?

If the sump basin is filling with water or water is already rising in your basement, call promptly. A failed sump pump during heavy rain or snowmelt can quickly become an emergency plumbing situation and increase the risk of water damage.

Do you provide 24-hour emergency plumbing?

Our phones have 24/7 live support, but our field plumbers do not operate around the clock. We prioritize emergency plumbing services and offer same-day appointments whenever availability allows. Call 612-888-1234 and we will let you know the soonest we can help.

How much does an emergency plumber cost?

The cost depends on the problem, the repair required, and the parts or materials needed. We diagnose the issue first, explain the recommended emergency plumbing repair, and review pricing before approved work begins. You can also learn more about our broader plumbing services.
