Hamden emergency plumbing FAQs
Are you really available 24/7 in Hamden?+
Yes. A live person answers our emergency line day, night, weekends and holidays. Because we're headquartered on Crestway in Hamden, most emergency calls in Spring Glen, Whitneyville, Mount Carmel, West Woods and Centerville are on-site within an hour.
What counts as a plumbing emergency?+
Anything actively damaging your home or making it unlivable: burst or leaking pipes, sewage backing up into the house, no hot water in winter, water heater flooding the basement, a running toilet that won't shut off, or a gas smell (call the utility first, then us for repair).
How fast can you get to my Hamden home?+
Most Hamden emergencies get a technician on-site within 45–90 minutes. Streets closest to our Crestway shop — Whitney Avenue, Dixwell Avenue, State Street, Ridge Road — are often faster.
What should I do while I wait for the plumber?+
Shut off the water. The main shutoff is usually near the water meter in the basement. For a leaking water heater, shut off the cold-water inlet on top of the tank. For a burst pipe, shut off the main. For a sewage backup, stop using water in the house until we arrive.

If you call us back within one week to schedule the work, the full $125 is credited toward the job.
