FAQs
What should I do first when I discover water damage in my Monteagle home?
Turn off the main water shut-off valve immediately to stop additional water flow, then switch off electricity in affected areas if it’s safe to do so. Next, call our 24/7 emergency plumbing line. While waiting for our technicians, remove valuables and excess water with towels or a wet-vac to minimize damage.
How quickly can your emergency plumbers arrive in Monteagle?
Because we are based in and around Monteagle, we have on-call crews positioned locally. In most cases we arrive within 60 minutes of your call—often sooner during normal traffic conditions. We’ll give you an accurate ETA when you contact us.
Will my homeowner’s insurance cover the cost of water damage plumbing repairs?
Most standard policies cover sudden and accidental water damage, such as burst pipes, appliance leaks, or overflowing fixtures. We’ll document the damage, provide detailed invoices, and work directly with your insurance adjuster to streamline the claims process. Coverage can vary, so it’s best to review your policy or contact your agent.
Can you dry out my walls, floors, and cabinets after fixing the leak?
Yes. We offer full structural drying and water remediation services. After repairing the plumbing source, we use commercial dehumidifiers, air movers, and moisture meters to dry hidden cavities in drywall, subfloors, and cabinetry, preventing mold growth and structural deterioration.
How do you detect hidden leaks behind walls or under slabs?
Our technicians use non-invasive technology—thermal imaging cameras, acoustic listening devices, and moisture mapping—to pinpoint concealed leaks without destructive demolition. If a slab leak is suspected, we can perform electronic leak location and minimally invasive access to repair the pipe.
What emergency plumbing issues warrant an immediate service call?
Contact us right away for frozen or burst pipes, sewer backups, overflowing toilets, water heater failures, leaking washing machine hoses, sump pump malfunctions, or any standing water that threatens structural components. Quick professional intervention limits damage, reduces repair costs, and safeguards your property.
