What to Do Right Now

Three steps, in order. They can save you thousands in water damage before our truck even pulls up.

Stop the Water

Try the fixture first: the small angle-stop valve under the sink or behind the toilet, turned clockwise. Still flowing? Go to the main shutoff. In most Glendale and Burbank homes it's where the supply line enters the house — a valve near a front hose bib on the street-facing wall, in the garage, or on the pipe riser at the foundation. Can't find it? The concrete meter box at the sidewalk has a city-side valve; channel-lock pliers or a meter key will close it.
If the Water Is Hot, Kill the Water Heater

A hot-water leak means the tank is feeding it. Turn a gas heater's control dial to OFF, or flip the breaker for an electric unit, then close the cold-water inlet valve on top of the tank. This stops the scalding flow and protects the heater from firing while empty.
Call (818) 242-7878

Tell us what's leaking or backing up and what you've managed to shut off — we'll talk you through anything you're stuck on and dispatch the nearest technician while we're still on the phone. Keep everyone away from sewage and from standing water near outlets or appliances.

Any Hour, Any Night

Emergencies We Handle 24/7

Burst & Leaking Pipes

Corroded galvanized pipe — original equipment in thousands of local homes — can let go without warning. We find the break, stop the flooding, and make a permanent repair, not a clamp-and-hope patch. If the whole system is failing, we'll show you and say so honestly.

Sewage Backups

Wastewater rising in a tub, shower, or floor drain is a genuine health hazard that gets worse with every flush. We clear the stoppage fast, then camera the line to find what caused it — usually roots in an aging clay lateral around here.

Main Line Stoppages

When every fixture in the house backs up at once, the main sewer line is blocked. We clear it through your cleanout, verify flow, and show you the camera footage so you know whether this was a one-off or a warning.

Overflowing Toilets

A toilet that won't stop rising — especially one that overflows when nothing was flushed — signals a blockage deeper than the bowl. We stop the overflow, clear the line, and check whether the branch or the main is the real culprit.

Slab Leaks

A warm patch on the floor, the hiss of running water with everything off, or a spiking water bill can mean a supply line leaking under the concrete slab. We pinpoint it with electronic detection and give you honest options: spot repair or a reroute.

No Water in the House

If your taps suddenly run dry and the neighbors' don't, the problem is on your side — a failed valve, a collapsed galvanized line, or a break between the meter and the house. We diagnose it and restore your water as fast as the fix allows.

What Happens When You Call

A person answers — then a truck moves. No voicemail maze at 3 a.m. We take down what's happening, tell you what to shut off, and dispatch the closest available licensed technician to your address in Glendale or Burbank.

We stop the damage first. The first job on arrival isn't paperwork — it's containment. Kill the water, stop the overflow, protect floors and belongings, and stabilize the situation so nothing else gets ruined while we diagnose.

You approve a flat price before repair work begins. Once the emergency is contained, your technician explains what failed, what it takes to fix it properly, and the exact flat price — whatever the hour. No hourly meter, no add-ons after the fact, and every repair is backed by our workmanship guarantee.

Emergency Plumbers Minutes Away, Not Across Town

Response time is the whole game in an emergency, and it's why being local matters. We run emergency calls throughout Glendale — from hillside homes in Adams Hill, Glenoaks Canyon, and Verdugo Woodlands down to Citrus Grove, Tropico, and the Brand Boulevard corridor — and all over Burbank, including Magnolia Park, the Media District, the Rancho Equestrian District, and the Burbank hills. We also respond to nearby La Crescenta-Montrose, La Cañada Flintridge, Eagle Rock, Atwater Village, Toluca Lake, and North Hollywood.

One number covers all of it, day or night: (818) 242-7878.

Emergency Plumbing FAQs

How fast can an emergency plumber get to me?

We dispatch the nearest available technician the moment you call, and because we're based locally, our trucks are already in or near Glendale and Burbank — not fighting their way across the LA basin. You'll get a realistic arrival estimate on the phone, plus step-by-step help shutting off the water while you wait. Call (818) 242-7878 and we'll get moving.

Do you charge extra for nights, weekends, or holidays?

You'll never be surprised by the bill, whatever the clock says. Every emergency job gets a flat price quoted upfront — before any repair work begins — and you approve that exact number first. There's no open-ended hourly meter running at 2 a.m., and nothing gets added to the total afterward. The price you approve is the price you pay.

What counts as a plumbing emergency?

Anything actively causing damage or making your home unusable: a burst or spraying pipe, sewage backing up into tubs or floor drains, a main line stoppage that's shut down every fixture, a suspected sewer line failure, a slab leak, a leaking water heater, or no water at all. If you're not sure, call anyway — we'll tell you honestly whether it needs a truck tonight or can wait for a regular same-day appointment, which costs you nothing to find out.

Should I call my water company first?

It depends where the leak is. If water is surfacing at the sidewalk meter box or between the meter and the street, that's utility-side — contact Glendale Water & Power or Burbank Water and Power. Everything from the meter to your house, and inside it, is the homeowner's responsibility — that's us. If you can't tell whose side it's on, call (818) 242-7878; we'll help you sort it out and get the water stopped either way.
