When Your Plumbing Can't Wait Until Monday

Some plumbing problems get worse every hour you wait.

A burst pipe can flood a room in minutes. A gas leak puts your family at risk. A water heater that quit on a cold Portland morning isn't a minor inconvenience. It's a real problem that needs a real plumber today.

PDX Plumber takes emergency calls seriously. Nolan and the team show up on time, in uniform, with fully stocked vans so most repairs get handled in a single visit. No runaround, no waiting on parts, no surprise charges at the end.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it safe to stay home during a plumbing emergency?

It depends on the situation. A burst pipe or sewage backup may require you to shut off your main water supply and stay clear of affected areas. A suspected gas leak means you should leave the home immediately and call your gas provider before calling a plumber. Once it's safe, call PDX Plumber and we'll take it from there.

How fast can a Portland emergency plumber get to my home?

PDX Plumber aims to respond to emergency calls the same day you contact us. Our plumbers arrive on time with fully stocked vans, which means most repairs are completed in a single visit rather than stretched across multiple appointments.

What counts as a plumbing emergency?

If it's causing active water damage, a safety risk, or leaving your home without water or heat, it's an emergency. Burst pipes, gas leaks, sewage backups, water heater failures, and overflowing toilets all qualify. When in doubt, call. We'll help you assess it.
