Plumbing emergency right now? Here's what to do

Two quick moves limit the damage before we arrive. Then call — we'll stay on the line and walk you through the rest.

  1. Shut off the water. For one fixture, use its local valve. For a burst pipe or flooding, close the main shut-off valve (garage, basement, crawlspace, or by the street meter — turn clockwise).
  2. Cut power or gas if needed. If water is near outlets or the panel, switch off that circuit. Smell gas? Leave the house first.
  3. Call us. Describe what's happening — we give you an honest arrival window and dispatch a plumber the same hour.

Smell gas? Don't wait.

Leave the home immediately. Don't flip switches, light a flame, or use your phone indoors. From outside, call your gas utility and 911 if the odor is strong — then call us to repair the line once it's safe.

No water at all? That can mean a main line break — call and we'll diagnose it today.

Talk to a plumber
Is there a 24 hour emergency plumber open now in Portland?

Yes. We're open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including holidays. A live dispatcher answers and a licensed plumber is sent the same hour for active emergencies. Call (971) 386-1515.

How quickly can an emergency plumber reach my house in Portland?

Typically within about 60 minutes anywhere in the metro, depending on your neighborhood and traffic. You get a real arrival window when you call.

What is considered a plumbing emergency?

Burst or leaking pipes, sewer backups, no water, no hot water, overflowing toilets, major leaks, sump-pump failure during flooding, and the smell of gas. If water is spreading or you smell gas, call immediately.

Do emergency plumbers charge more at night or on weekends?

We don't. Many Portland plumbers add 1.5x–3x after-hours surcharges; we charge the same upfront, flat-rate price any hour of any day, including holidays.

My basement is flooding from a burst pipe — what do I do?

Shut off the main water valve immediately, cut power to that area if it's safe, move belongings out of the water, and call us. We dispatch a plumber and can coordinate water extraction and drying.

I smell gas near my water heater — what should I do?

Leave the home right away, don't flip switches or light anything, and call your gas utility and 911 if the smell is strong. Then call us from outside — we handle emergency gas line repairs once the area is safe.

Do you handle commercial plumbing emergencies?

Yes — restaurants, offices, retail, and multi-family properties across Portland: backed-up lines, water heater failures, burst supply lines and more, 24/7. Commercial plumbing →

Are you licensed and insured for emergency work?

Yes — a licensed Oregon plumbing contractor, bonded and insured, with background-checked plumbers experienced on Portland's older galvanized and cast-iron systems.

How much does an emergency plumber cost in Portland?

Cost depends on the problem — most emergency calls run in the same $150–$600 range as a standard repair, with major work like sewer backups or pipe replacement running higher. You get a flat, upfront price before any work starts, and we never add after-hours, weekend, or holiday surcharges.

Should I call 911, 311, or a plumber for a plumbing emergency?

Call 911 only for a gas leak, fire risk, or immediate safety hazard. Portland's 311 line covers city-owned sewer and water mains in the street, not the pipes inside your home. For anything on your property, call a licensed emergency plumber directly.
