Yes — many connected providers offer 24/7 emergency dispatch for burst pipes, major leaks, sewer backups, and other urgent issues; response times vary by location and time of day, so for safety first shut off the main water supply and, if necessary, electricity to flooded areas before contacting an emergency plumber.

Plumbing professionals on reputable networks are typically licensed and carry liability insurance; always ask for a license number, proof of insurance, and written confirmation that permits will be obtained for work that requires them.

Pricing depends on the job type and complexity, parts and materials, required permits, travel or emergency dispatch fees, and whether the technician charges by the hour or a flat rate; request a written estimate that breaks down labor, parts, and any diagnostic or trip charges before work begins.

Some providers offer free or low-cost estimates for non-emergency work, while emergency calls often include a diagnostic or trip fee; ask up front whether the inspection is complimentary and whether that fee is credited if you proceed with repairs.

Immediately shut off the main water valve, open nearby faucets to drain water, turn off electricity to flooded areas if safe, contain the spread with towels or buckets, document damage for insurance, and contact an emergency plumber right away.

Common signs include multiple fixtures backing up simultaneously, gurgling toilets, sewage odors in the yard or basement, unusually lush patches in the lawn, and slow drains throughout the house; a sewer camera inspection is the safest way to diagnose the problem.

Tank water heaters store and continuously heat a volume of water and are typically less expensive to install, while tankless (on‑demand) units heat water as needed, offering higher energy efficiency and longer lifespans but usually higher upfront costs and different installation requirements; a professional assessment will determine the best option for your home.

Schedule a professional plumbing inspection at least once a year; water heaters benefit from annual flushing, drains can be proactively cleaned every 1–2 years depending on usage, and older pipes should be inspected regularly to prevent costly failures.

Licensed plumbers typically handle permit application and scheduling of required inspections for major repairs or installations; always confirm in writing that your contractor will secure necessary permits and pass local inspections.

Yes, fixtures can usually be installed in older homes, but older piping materials (galvanized steel, cast iron, or lead) can cause ongoing problems; repiping is recommended when frequent leaks, low water pressure, discoloration, or health concerns indicate deteriorated pipes—have a plumber inspect and provide options.

Insulate exposed pipes, keep a consistent indoor temperature, open cabinet doors under sinks to allow warm air circulation, disconnect and drain outdoor hoses, and consider heat tape for vulnerable sections; if temperatures plummet, let faucets drip slightly to reduce freezing risk.
