San Mateo County’s older homes often deal with aging pipes and outdated plumbing systems that can fail without warning. Our plumbers understand the specific challenges of the area’s infrastructure, from tree root intrusion in sewer lines to the effects of ground shifting on pipe connections.
Every emergency call includes thorough diagnosis, upfront pricing, professional repair work, and cleanup. We don’t charge extra for nights, weekends, or holidays because plumbing emergencies don’t follow a schedule. Our goal is getting your plumbing working properly again as quickly as possible, with repairs that last.
We prioritize emergency calls and typically arrive within 1-2 hours, even during nights, weekends, and holidays. Our response time depends on your exact location in San Mateo County and current call volume, but we understand that plumbing emergencies can’t wait.

You’ll get the same professional service and fair pricing regardless of when you call. We provide upfront estimates before starting any work, so you’ll know exactly what the repair will cost with no surprises on your bill.
Any plumbing issue that threatens your property or prevents you from using essential plumbing fixtures qualifies as an emergency. This includes burst pipes, major leaks, sewer backups, water heater failures, and completely clogged main drains.
We also handle urgent situations like broken water lines, failed sump pumps during storms, and gas line leaks. If you’re not sure whether your situation qualifies as an emergency, just call us. We’d rather assess the problem and help you determine the best course of action than have you wait and potentially face more expensive damage later.
Yes, all our plumbers are fully licensed by the state of California and our company carries comprehensive insurance coverage. We’re also accredited by the Better Business Bureau and have been serving San Mateo County since 2001.
Our technicians receive ongoing training to stay current with local plumbing codes and the latest repair techniques.

Absolutely. Every emergency plumbing repair we complete in San Mateo County comes with our two-year parts and labor warranty. If something goes wrong with our repair work within that timeframe, we’ll return and fix it at no additional charge.
This warranty covers both the parts we install and the labor involved in the repair. We stand behind our work because we use quality materials and take the time to complete repairs correctly the first time. Our goal is solving your plumbing problem permanently, not creating a situation where you need to call us back in a few months.
If water is actively damaging your property, you can’t use essential plumbing fixtures, or you smell gas, call immediately for emergency service. Burst pipes, major leaks, sewer backups, and gas line issues always require urgent attention.
Other situations like slow drains, minor leaks, or running toilets might be inconvenient but usually aren’t true emergencies unless they’re getting worse rapidly. When in doubt, give us a call and describe what’s happening. We can help you determine whether the problem needs immediate attention or can be scheduled for regular service hours. It’s always better to ask than to wait and discover you needed emergency help after damage has occurred.
