Plumbing issues need to be taken care of immediately. Ignoring certain plumbing issues will only result in major repairs that are costly. A good rule of thumb is to keep an eye out for leaking pipes, slow drainage, and frequent clogs.

Calling in a professional at the right time is essential for major plumbing problems. Here are some issues that require emergency plumbing services:

Overflowing toilet

A toilet plunger is often sufficient to take care of small clogs. However, the buildup of debris and waste over time eventually leads to overflowing toilets. Your bathroom can flood as a result and such backups release harmful particles into the air along with an unpleasant odor. Bathrooms located on the upper floors may also leak into the lower floors.

Overflowing bathrooms cause much damage and you’ll need a plumber to address the issue immediately. They use a plumbing snake to remove the clog. Extensive damage caused by a clog will require additional measures.

Broken pipes

A system of pipes runs all around your home. These pipes take fresh water to faucets and drain wastewater. Any cracks in these pipes can cause the pipes to break. A broken water line can flood your house. Broken pipes cause major water wastage and water damage too.

A professional plumbing service will be able to turn off the water supply for you and fix the damage as soon as possible. If the cause of the broken pipe is tree roots, rooting services need to be called in as well.

No hot water

There may be a number of reasons why there’s no hot water supply in your kitchen and bathroom faucets. The most common reason tends to be electrical issues, water heater problems, and plumbing leaks.

If there’s a leak in the body of the water heater, hot water is constantly being wasted. This doesn’t give the water heater enough time to heat the water. Issues with the water heater can also cause it to malfunction.

Backups in the sewer system

Sewer backups in your home can cause multiple problems. A clogged sewer can cause multiple clogs in your home simultaneously. Sewage odors from the drains are unpleasant and pooling may occur near the drain too. Sewer backups are a messy task and are best left to the professionals. They can identify the root cause of the problem whether that’s severe clogs or main water lines.
