Shreveport Emergency Plumber
An emergency plumber in Shreveport is what you need when a pipe bursts at midnight, sewage comes up in the tub, the water heater floods the garage, or there is no water at all. These do not wait for business hours. Our team treats a plumbing emergency with the urgency it deserves in Shreveport, Bossier City, Greenwood and Blanchard, and we are committed to getting the damage stopped and the repair handled by professionals. Call (318) 300-4894 now.
What Counts As An Emergency
A burst or actively leaking pipe you cannot stop, sewage backing up into the house, a water heater leaking heavily, a gas smell, or no water to the house. For a gas smell, leave the house and call the gas utility and 911 first, then call us. A dripping faucet or a single slow drain can usually wait for a normal visit, and our team will tell you honestly which one you have. When you need emergency plumbing in Shreveport, our team is ready to help.
What To Do Right Now
Close the main shut-off valve. If your house has its own valve, it is usually where the water line enters the building. If not, use the valve at the meter: in Shreveport the meter is generally at the front of the property, between the edge of the road pavement and your property line. If the leak is from the water heater, close the cold-water valve above the unit and turn off the gas or the breaker. Move valuables out of the water. Then call (318) 300-4894. We will ensure that your emergency plumbing repair in Shreveport is handled by professionals.
Freeze Emergencies
Shreveport does freeze. On 16 February 2021 the temperature fell to 1°F, and during the Christmas 2022 freeze so many mains and private service lines broke that the whole city was placed under a boil advisory. Exposed lines in attics, garages, crawl spaces and outside walls burst first. If a freeze is forecast, cover outdoor faucets, open cabinet doors on outside walls, let a faucet drip, and know where your shut-off is. If a pipe bursts, shut the main and call. Our team is fully committed to reliable burst pipe repair in Shreveport.
Storm And Flood Emergencies
Shreveport gets around 51 inches of rain a year, and severe thunderstorms are part of spring and summer. In June 2015 the Red River crested at 37.14 feet and flooded homes in Caddo and Bossier parishes, with backwater flooding around Cross Lake and Twelve Mile Bayou. After a flood, a water heater whose burner or controls were under water must be checked before it is used again, and sewage backing up during heavy rain means the main line needs attention. Our team is focused on high-quality emergency plumbing across Shreveport.
What We Handle
- Burst pipes and split supply lines
- Sewage backups and blocked main lines
- Water heater failures and floods
- Service line breaks and no water to the house
- Gas line leaks, after the utility has made it safe
- Overflowing toilets and fixtures that will not shut off
Our first job is to stop the water and make the home safe. Once the damage is under control, our plumber explains what failed and what the full repair involves. We are committed to making emergency plumbing in Shreveport simple and reliable.
Why Call Us In An Emergency
Because in an emergency you need clear instructions and work that is done right. Our team tells you how to stop the water, explains what failed, and gives you an honest answer: if it can wait until morning, we say so. A bigger job, such as a repipe after repeated bursts, can be planned once the house is safe. We strive for reliable, high-quality outcomes even at the worst moment, at a fair and reasonable price, and every emergency repair is handled by professionals and completed properly.
