If water is moving right now
Four steps keep a plumbing problem small until a plumber arrives. None of them needs tools, and each takes only a minute or two.
Turn the main shutoff clockwise until it stops. It is usually near the front hose bib or in the garage. A valve inside the meter box may belong to the City, so wait for us if the house valve will not work.
A backing-up drain means the line is blocked downstream. Run no water, flush nothing and keep drain chemicals out of it.
If the panel is dry and you can reach it without standing in water, switch off the breakers for wet rooms. Otherwise stay out and tell the dispatcher.
Photograph the damage before anything is moved or dried. Your insurance carrier will ask for them.
These steps do not replace a plumber, but they cap the damage. When you call, tell the dispatcher what you already did.

Call (855) 575-2890What counts as a plumbing emergency
Some problems can wait for a morning visit and some cannot. If any line below describes your house, call now.
- Water spraying or pouring from a pipe you cannot shut off
- Sewage backing up into a tub, shower or floor drain
- A water meter that keeps moving with every fixture turned off
- A toilet overflowing after the supply valve is closed
- A water heater tank leaking onto the floor
- A ceiling stain that is spreading or dripping
Not on the list? Call anyway. A dispatcher can tell you in a minute whether a visit tonight makes sense, and a slow drip near a fitting that is already corroded can worsen into a burst pipe repair.
How a call to our line works
- 01You call
A dispatcher answers at any hour. There is no form to fill out and no app to open.
- 02We ask what you see
Where the water is coming from, how long it has run, and whether it is stopped. Short answers are enough.
- 03A plumber is scheduled
We book the first opening that fits the problem. Same-day appointments are offered when the schedule allows.
- 04Price first, then work
The plumber looks at the problem and explains the price before any repair starts. You decide from there.
What makes plumbing different in Tavares
Tavares sits on a narrow isthmus between Lake Eustis and Lake Dora, about 118 feet above sea level. Lots near the water can stay wet for long stretches, which can hide a slow leak until the yard stays soggy. If your yard stays soggy in dry weather, a visit from our leak detection service is worth booking.
The City of Tavares pumps water from the Floridan Aquifer through six wells and maintains about 134 miles of water lines. Responsibility often changes at the meter, but it varies by property, so ask City of Tavares Utilities where yours ends. Our water line repair page explains how to tell which side a leak is on.
The city's published water quality report does not list a hardness figure, so scale on fixtures and water heaters is a guess until you test your tap. A home test kit or a call to City of Tavares Utilities settles it. If the result is high, our water softener and filtration page covers the options.
The city's wastewater system includes 70 lift stations that are monitored around the clock. A backup inside one house is usually a private line problem, and sewer line cleaning or sewer line repair handles that side. If the whole street is affected, call the city's wastewater line as well.
Not sure it counts as an emergency? Call and ask, any hour of the night.

How pricing works
You get a price before work starts, and that price depends on four things we can only see in person.
A worn flapper and a cracked sewer line can both show up as a toilet that will not flush. The fix and the price are very different.
A pipe in an open garage is quick. A pipe behind tile or under a slab needs cutting and patching.
Copper, PEX, cast iron and PVC each need their own fittings. Water heaters range widely by size and fuel type.
Nights and weekends can change the dispatch cost. We say so before you agree to anything.
Homeowners insurance often covers the water damage from a sudden leak, though the failed part may be excluded. Ask your carrier before you sign a work order, and keep your photos.
The fastest way to a real number is a call, because the price is explained before any work begins.
Check any plumber before you hire
Florida licenses plumbing contractors through the Department of Business and Professional Regulation. Use the Verify a License tool at MyFloridaLicense.com with a name or license number, and do it before any plumber starts work, including ours.
Search a plumber's name or license number with that tool before work starts, and ask any company, including ours, for its licensing details.
Work itself follows the Florida Building Code, Plumbing, the state standard, so a licensed plumber should also be able to tell you when your job needs a permit.
