Emergency Plumbing Services Millbrae

Every Emergency Covered, Every Hour

Burst pipes, failed water heaters, severe drain clogs, sewer backups, gas line leaks – we handle what can’t wait until Monday. Our trucks carry replacement parts for most common emergency repairs.

You get the same quality work at 3 AM that you’d get during business hours. Same licensing, same insurance, same permanent fixes. We don’t do temporary patches that fail again next month.

Millbrae’s unique plumbing challenges don’t surprise us. We’ve dealt with the mineral buildup from local water, the pipe freezing during those rare cold snaps, and the root intrusion issues common in established neighborhoods.

We typically arrive within 30-60 minutes for true emergencies in Millbrae and surrounding areas. When you call, we’ll give you an accurate timeframe based on your location and current traffic conditions. For burst pipes or flooding situations, we can often talk you through emergency shut-off procedures over the phone to minimize damage while we’re en route. Our plumbers live locally and carry fully-stocked trucks, so we don’t waste time gathering tools or making supply runs.
Our emergency service rates are clearly explained upfront when you call. While emergency calls do carry a premium compared to scheduled appointments, we believe in transparent pricing with no surprise fees. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying before we start any work. We think it’s better to be honest about costs upfront than to hit you with unexpected charges when you’re already dealing with a plumbing crisis.
We respond to any plumbing issue that can’t safely wait for regular business hours. This includes burst or frozen pipes, major leaks, water heater failures, severe drain blockages, sewer backups, gas line problems, and situations where water is actively damaging your property. We also handle urgent repairs needed before hosting events or when you have guests arriving. If water or sewage is where it shouldn’t be, or if you have no hot water or working toilets, we consider it an emergency worth our immediate attention.
Yes, every plumber on our emergency team holds current California state licensing and we carry full liability insurance and workers compensation coverage. We can provide proof of licensing and insurance before starting work if requested. This protects both you and us if anything unexpected happens during the repair. Many homeowners insurance policies require that emergency plumbing work be performed by licensed, insured professionals to maintain coverage, so our credentials help protect your insurance claims if needed.
Absolutely. When you call with a water emergency, we’ll immediately walk you through steps to minimize damage. This usually involves locating and turning off your main water supply or the shutoff valve for the affected fixture. We’ll explain how to safely move furniture and belongings away from the water, and whether you should contact your insurance company right away. Our goal is to start helping you the moment you call, not just when we arrive on site.
We always aim for permanent solutions, even during emergency calls. Our trucks carry quality replacement parts and professional-grade materials, not just temporary patches. However, if a complete repair requires special parts or extensive work, we’ll secure the situation safely and schedule the permanent fix as soon as possible. We’ll clearly explain whether we’re providing a temporary or permanent solution and give you realistic expectations about next steps if additional work is needed.
