Troubleshooting Emergency Plumbing Calgary

One of the most important things you can do to prevent emergency plumbing problems is to be proactive.

There are some routine checks that you should do in your home on a regular basis. Make sure all of your water fixtures have been installed properly and have been checked for leaks.

If you do have emergency plumbing needs , it’s possible that there is a problem with one of your pipes behind the walls or under your home . Check for any signs of water damage on the walls of your house, particularly in the corner of rooms that are near water fixtures.

If you find evidence of leaking, call emergency plumbers immediately to avoid further damage to your home. In some cases, emergency plumbers may be able to fix the problem by simply tightening a loose connection on a pipe.

In other cases, emergency plumbing issues may require further inspection, especially if the leaking is coming from behind your walls or under your home.

Emergency Plumbing Calgary FAQ

Sewer backups, burst pipes, clogged drains or toilets as well as gas leaks are just a few common Emergency plumbing problems. Emergency plumbing services are normally needed for damage caused by water entering your home or business’s premises due to emergency situations like freezing cold temperatures and heavy rainfalls during winter season in Calgary and area. These kinds of weather conditions can cause lot of damages such as leaky faucets, frozen pipes, broken furnaces , water heaters , dishwashers washing machines, and water softeners.

Emergency Plumbing services can also be required for household plumbing jobs such as repairing or replacing broken pipes including frozen pipes, burst pipes, or leaky faucets.

Any Emergency situation that does not involve water damage to your home should be considered non-emergency Emergency Plumbing issues, and it is best to make a normal appointment with one of our plumbers.

The obvious caveat to the above is when your are experience no-heat from your furnace in the middle of the cold Calgary winters!

Unlike a bathroom reno, plumbing emergencies are often an unplanned expense. However, if you wait, or try to solve the issue yourself, what starts as a fairly simple fix can turn into a costly project. When you call Instant Plumbing, you will have immediate access to an expert plumber.

Over the phone, we can provide an initial cost range, based on the information you provide. Before a plumber is even dispatched, you’ll have an idea of what to expect. We can also walk you through any emergency measures, while you’re waiting for your plumber to arrive, to lessen any damage.

Another emergency plumbing question emergency plumbers often hear from residents is “can I unclog the toilet myself?”

As emergency plumbers can attest, emergency plumbing problems are never easy to fix quickly. If you’re trying to fix a sink blockage yourself, for instance, it’s important to remember that using harsh chemicals can further damage your pipes and create more serious problems down the line.

Instant Plumbing was outstanding with respect to our emergency on Sunday and following up with the replacement of the hot water tank.

Derek was very helpful Sunday arranging the proper tank and service for Monday and the installers were excellent…Brian and assistant were very careful removing and bringing in the new large tank. There was no damage and they were clean about it! The tank was installed tested and we have been enjoying hot water and warm floors since …with no issues!

Our regular plumbing company dropped the ball big time with us when we were calling early Sunday morning…Instant did not!!! Very responsive and a quality installation was our experience.

Thanks guys!

We had a plumbing, sewage, septic pump, back-up emergency and Instant Plumbing came right away.

Jeff and Austin had to wear hazmat suits to protect themselves as my husband is currently battling cancer and undergoing chemotherapy. Jeff and Austin were considerate, friendly, thorough and just plain terrific.

When I called Instant Plumbing to give the rest of our information for payment afterwards,

I had a very nice conversation with Carolyn who inquired about the hazmat notification on our file.

I explained about my husband, and went on to tell her about our son also having had cancer when he was only 6. Carolyn told me to wait for the invoice and it would be sent through email.


A couple of days later, Carolyn and George rang our doorbell with a gorgeous bouquet of flowers, a visa gift card and an invoice for only the parts the plumbers had to replace.

Their kindness, as well as the professionalism of the plumbers we had in our home have won lifetime clients from our family.

Thank you so much for your unbelievably kind gesture and thorough work you completed in our home George and Carolyn & Instant Plumbing and Heating.
