We are always reliable in an emergency so don’t hesitate to get in touch for advice and expert solutions, whether you have no running water, a water leak, broken fixtures, burst pipe or flooding disaster.
No Running Water
A plumbing emergency would certainly be considered if you turn on tap after tap and not a drop of water comes out. This problem will be assessed by one of our expert plumbers. Some reasons may include clogged tap connections, old or improperly installed water lines, or corroded pipes.
Water Dripping From Ceiling
You may not be able to see the damage, but even a few minor drips can signal a bigger hidden problem. Consistent water leaks can cause mold growth and mildew to grow which can be harmful. Ignoring pipe leaks can result in expensive water damage repair and restoration in the future. A KAN contractor plumbing expert will inspect the problem to determine whether it’s a faulty faucet, a bad seal, a cracked pipe, or something else and fix it.
Freezing Showers
Check your other faucets in case any of them produce warm water if you step into a freezing shower in the morning. If someone else has taken a shower recently, your water heater may be getting low on hot water. Call KAN local plumbing expert if you aren't able to identify the source of freezing water.
Toilet Overflowing
Blockages in your drain usually cause overflowing toilets. Water, waste, or even sewage overflows your toilet instead of flushing smoothly down the drain. If this problem is not addressed immediately, the floor of your bathroom could be damaged or even the ceiling could leak. Regardless of what caused it, KAN plumbing specialists can help you to fix it.
Flooding
Flooding may be catastrophic. Whether the reason is a plumbing problem in your house or a major storm. Plumbing may cause flooding in a variety of ways, including a faulty dishwasher, an overflowing toilet, a malfunctioning washing machine or a failed water heater, broken water pipes, sump pump failure, and a leaky foundation. When it comes to recovery, Kan Plumbing acts quickly to minimize serious damage from floods.
Burst Pipes
There are measures that can be done as soon as you see water from a burst pipe to prevent more damage. First, turn off the water supply and, if the pipe is near any electrical equipment, turn it off. Then, simply turning on your faucets, you may help reduce pressure buildup. After you've taken steps to prevent the situation from worsening, contact our local KAN plumbers to identify the problem and fix your pipes.
Burst Washing Machine Hose
Washing machine hoses bursting, one of the primary causes of house flooding, should be handled as soon as possible. If you observe dripping or accumulating water beneath your washing machine, make sure the hose is securely attached - it may only need to be tightened. If this is not the case, contact an emergency plumber immediately so that water does not spread. Even if there hasn't been any flooding, seeping water can cause significant water damage.
Sewer Line Stoppages
Strong odors that don't go away, various clogs throughout the house, and unusually slow draining are all signs that your sewage line is clogged. While ordinary clogs may be handled without requiring after-hour plumbing assistance, a main sewage line block is considered a serious plumbing emergency since it is the only plumbing line that drains all water from your property. To deal with these issues, contact your local emergency plumber. Do not try to repair it yourself as this can be very dangerous to your health.
No Hot Water
Every day, you use hot water in your house. That's great until the hot water becomes cool, then cold. While a lack of hot water may not appear to be an emergency, if your water heater is fueled by gas, it requires an after-hours appointment. If you have a gas water heater, a lack of hot water might signal a problem with your gas line. This is a risk that should not be overlooked since it might result in a risk of fire.
