Flooding
Floods are one of the most common types of emergencies our plumbing company attends to. Normally, flooding is caused by broken or burst pipes and leaking fixtures. These can be attributed to inevitable wear and tear, shoddy workmanship or unexpected malfunctioning.
Once a large amount of water starts streaming, it can ruin furniture, decor and appliances. If flooding is not remedied quick enough, water can cause irreversible damage to the affected areas of your property.
As we all know, water seeps into every crack and permeates beyond the surface of anything it reaches. Aside from excessive moisture, your home or office might also see structural instability when water gets to the foundation.
Bursting
Fixing burst pipes is one of the plumbing services that we urgently execute. Pipes tend to burst when there is a significant increase in the water pressure. That pressure can cause water to seep through a joint, resulting in slow, constant leakage. If the pressure is too strong, it can forcibly crack the pipe. With the full flow of water unleashed, your floors can be flooded in minutes.
Corrosion is another cause of burst pipes. Over time, rust will keep on forming and gradually taper the flow of water in the pipes. The deterioration will likely break down the material in the pipe. Whatever the reason, our emergency plumbers either repair or replace the pipe, depending on the damage.
Leaking
An emergency plumber is the best person to help check for and take care of gas leaks. If you constantly catch a whiff of gas in your home, that’s not a good sign. In fact, you have every reason to worry.
Unlike water leaks, gas leaks present greater dangers for your health and safety. For one, there is the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning. Another is the possibility of fire. The gas spreading through your house is flammable and once it comes into contact with an open flame, it could trigger a fire or worse, an explosion.
