If you’re dealing with an active plumbing emergency, contact our team right away.

24-Hour Emergency Plumber Support in the Twin Cities
A burst pipe or sewer backup does not become less urgent because it happens after business hours. We provide 24-hour emergency plumbing support for Minneapolis homeowners dealing with active leaks, overflowing fixtures, leaking water heaters, and other urgent plumbing problems.
Contact us when the problem happens, including overnight and on weekends. We’ll discuss what you’re experiencing, help identify immediate precautions, and explain the next steps for service. When you need an emergency plumber in Minneapolis, you can reach our team without waiting for normal business hours to resume.
When to Call an Emergency Plumber
Not every plumbing issue requires immediate service, but some situations should be addressed as soon as possible to reduce damage and protect your home.
Burst or Leaking Pipes
Water can spread quickly behind walls, beneath flooring, and into finished spaces. Immediate repairs help limit water damage.
Sewer Backups
Wastewater backing up through drains, tubs, or toilets creates both a plumbing problem and a health concern that should be addressed immediately.
Water Heater Leaks
A leaking water heater can damage surrounding areas and may indicate that the tank or a major component has failed.
Frozen Pipes
Minnesota winters can freeze water lines quickly. Prompt service may help prevent a frozen pipe from bursting.
Sump Pump Failure
A sump pump that stops working during heavy rain or snowmelt can leave your basement vulnerable to flooding.
Gas Line Concerns
If you smell natural gas or hear a hissing sound near a gas appliance or line, leave the area immediately and contact your gas utility. Once the area is safe, our licensed plumbers can inspect and repair qualifying gas line issues.
Emergency Plumbing Services
Emergency plumbing calls often involve more than stopping a leak. Our plumbers inspect the affected area, identify the source of the problem, and recommend the repair that best protects your home.

What to Do Before Your Plumber Arrives
If it’s safe to do so, taking a few simple steps can help reduce damage while you’re waiting for service.
-
Shut off the main water supply if water is actively flowing.
-
Turn off the power to the affected water heater if it’s leaking.
-
Keep family members away from standing water near electrical equipment.
-
Avoid using plumbing fixtures if sewage is backing up.

Move valuables away from affected areas whenever possible.
