Many plumbing companies offer emergency service for burst pipes, major leaks, sewer backups, overflowing fixtures and loss of water. Availability and after-hours rates should be confirmed directly.
Plumbers and drain-cleaning companies can inspect and clear clogged sinks, toilets, showers, floor drains and main sewer lines using tools appropriate to the location and severity of the blockage.
Many plumbers diagnose water-heater problems, replace components and install new tank or tankless systems. Ask whether the company services your fuel type and particular model.
