When plumbing emergencies strike, it’s normal to have a lot of questions about what to do next, how fast help can arrive, and what services are covered. To make things simple, we’ve answered the most common questions homeowners and businesses ask about 24/7 emergency plumbing services.
What qualifies as a plumbing emergency?
A plumbing emergency includes burst pipes, overflowing toilets, sewage backups, gas leaks, water heater failures, or any issue that puts your property at risk of flooding or damage. If it can’t wait until tomorrow, it’s an emergency.
How quickly can Western Rooter respond to emergency calls?
We’re available 24/7, including nights, weekends, and holidays. In most cases, a licensed plumber can be dispatched and on-site the same day — often within the hour for local service calls.
Do you charge extra for emergency plumbing services?
We keep our rates competitive, even for late-night or holiday calls. Prices vary based on the type of repair and severity of the problem, but we’re upfront with estimates before starting any work.

Yes. Our team is trained and equipped to handle emergencies in single-family homes, apartment buildings, retail businesses, restaurants, and office spaces.
