FAQs
What counts as a plumbing emergency, and when should I call for service in McMinnville?
A plumbing emergency is any situation that threatens your safety, property, or access to clean water. Examples include burst pipes, severe leaks, overflowing toilets, sewer line backups, no hot water, gas line issues, or water heaters that are leaking or making unusual noises. If shutting off the fixtureâs supply valve or your homeâs main water valve does not stop the problem, or if sewage or gas is involved, call our McMinnville emergency line immediatelyâday or night.
How fast can a fully stocked truck reach my home or business in McMinnville?
Because our technicians are already based in McMinnville and the surrounding Yamhill County area, we can usually dispatch the nearest truck within minutes of your call. Typical arrival time is 30â60 minutes, depending on traffic and weather. You will receive a confirmed ETA via text or phone, and our dispatcher will keep you updated if road conditions change.
What does âfully stocked truckâ mean, and why is it important?
Each of our trucks carries more than 1,000 common plumbing parts and specialized toolsâfittings, pipes, water heater components, disposal units, toilet rebuild kits, shut-off valves, drain-cleaning machines, and even replacement faucets. This mobile warehouse setup lets us complete over 90 % of repairs on the first visit, saving you the cost and inconvenience of return trips or waiting until local supply houses open.
Are there extra charges for after-hours, weekend, or holiday emergency plumbing calls?
We believe in transparent, upfront pricing. While emergency service requires an on-call dispatch fee, the amount is quoted before we send a technician and it is the same 24/7âno hidden premiums for weekends or holidays. Once on site, the plumber will perform a quick diagnostic and give you a flat-rate price for the entire repair so you can approve the work before we begin.
Can most repairs really be completed in one visit?
Yes. Thanks to our fully stocked trucks, proprietary parts-tracking system, and well-trained technicians, we finish the majority of emergencies in a single trip. If a specialty item is requiredâsuch as a custom water heater or a unique fixtureâwe place an expedited order and install a temporary solution (for example, capping a line or installing a loaner device) so your home remains safe and functional until the part arrives.
What should I do while waiting for the emergency plumber to arrive?
First, shut off the closest fixture valve or the main water shut-off (usually located where the water line enters the house or near the water meter). Open taps on the lowest level of your home to relieve pressure. If water is leaking, move valuables, place buckets under drips, and use towels to protect floors. For sewer backups, avoid all drain use and keep children and pets away from affected areas. For gas leaks, evacuate immediately, leave doors open for ventilation, and call 911 from a safe distance. Then wait for our licensed McMinnville emergency plumber to handle the repair.
