FAQs
What should I do first if I discover a sudden plumbing leak in my Jonesborough home?
Immediately locate and turn off the closest shut-off valve—either the fixture valve (under sinks/toilets) or the main water supply valve, usually found near the water meter or where the main line enters your home. Shutting off water minimizes damage and buys time until an emergency plumber arrives. After shutting off the water, open nearby faucets to relieve pressure, move valuables away from the leak, and call our 24/7 emergency team at the number listed on this page.
How quickly can your emergency plumbers reach my property in Jonesborough?
Our on-call technicians are stationed within Washington County and surrounding areas, allowing us to reach most addresses in Jonesborough within 60 minutes—often faster during off-peak traffic hours. Our dispatch system tracks the closest available crew so we can provide real-time arrival estimates once you call.
Do you charge extra for after-hours or holiday emergency service?
Because emergencies rarely happen during business hours, we maintain transparent, flat-rate emergency pricing that factors in nights, weekends, and holidays. While the rate is higher than standard scheduling to cover overtime labor, you will receive a written quote before any work begins, with no hidden fees or surprise surcharges.
Can you help with water damage mitigation once the leak is repaired?
Yes. In addition to stopping the leak, our technicians can extract standing water, set up commercial-grade drying equipment, and apply antimicrobial treatments to prevent mold. We can also document the damage for insurance claims and coordinate with local restoration partners for any necessary structural repairs.
What types of sudden leaks do you handle?
Our licensed plumbers resolve burst or frozen pipes, ruptured water heaters, failed washing-machine hoses, leaking supply lines, slab leaks, ceiling or wall pipe ruptures, and any unexpected water intrusion tied to your plumbing system. If water is coming from an unknown source, we use electronic leak detection and thermal imaging to pinpoint and repair it quickly.
Is your emergency plumbing work guaranteed?
Absolutely. All emergency repairs come with the same workmanship guarantee as our scheduled services. Parts and labor are covered for a minimum of one year, and many components carry longer manufacturer warranties. If the repaired area leaks again due to our workmanship, we will return promptly at no cost to you.
