Four Common Plumbing Emergencies

Plumbing emergencies can be a major headache for homeowners and renters alike. From burst pipes to clogged toilets, there are a variety of issues that can cause significant damage if not addressed quickly. Luckily, no matter what’s going on, your local Topeka plumbing pros at Blackburn can help. Here are four of the most common plumbing emergencies we see:

1. Burst pipes: This is perhaps the most serious plumbing emergency, as it can cause significant water damage to your home. Signs of a burst pipe include low water pressure, strange noises coming from your pipes, and water stains on walls or ceilings.
2. Clogged drains: A clogged drain can cause water to back up and overflow, leading to water damage and potential health hazards. Common causes of clogged drains include hair, grease, and food waste.
3. Leaking faucets: While a leaking faucet may not seem like an emergency, it can waste a significant amount of water over time and lead to higher bills. It may also be a sign of more serious plumbing problems.
4. Overflowing toilets: An overflowing toilet can cause water damage and unsanitary conditions in your bathroom. This can be caused by a clog in the toilet or in the main sewer line.

Plumbing Emergencies We Handle

Some plumbing problems can wait for a scheduled appointment, while others need attention right away before they cause water damage or a safety hazard. Blackburn Plumbing responds fast to the emergencies Topeka homeowners and businesses run into most:

Burst pipes - common during Topeka's freeze-thaw winters, when water freezes, expands, and splits a line.

Sewer backups - sewage coming up through drains or toilets, often from a main-line blockage. See our drain and sewer line service.

No hot water - a failed or leaking water heater. We also handle water heater repair and installation.

Suspected gas leaks - leave the home and call 911 first, then reach out. Learn more about our gas line services.

Overflowing toilets - a clog in the toilet or main line causing water to spill onto the floor.

Major leaks - a broken supply line or fixture flooding a room and threatening your floors and walls.

What to Do in a Plumbing Emergency

Taking a few quick steps before we arrive can limit the damage and keep everyone safe:

Shut off the water. For a single fixture, use its supply valve. For a burst pipe or major leak, close the home's main water shutoff valve.

If you smell gas, leave the home immediately, do not flip switches or use anything that could spark, and call 911 and your gas utility from a safe distance.

Contain the leak. Use towels or a bucket, and move furniture or valuables away from the water.

Turn off the water heater if the water supply is off, so it does not run dry and overheat.

Then call Blackburn Plumbing at 785-260-0299 so we can get a plumber to you.

Once the water is off and the area is safe, the pressure is off too. Our team will take it from there.

Emergency Plumbing FAQ

What counts as a plumbing emergency?

A plumbing emergency is any problem that can cause water damage, sewage exposure, or a safety hazard if it is not addressed quickly. Burst pipes, sewer backups, overflowing toilets, a failed water heater, and a suspected gas leak all qualify. If water is spreading or you cannot stop it, treat it as an emergency. Blackburn Plumbing responds fast in Topeka. Call 785-260-0299.

What should I do if a pipe bursts?

Shut off your home's main water valve right away to stop the flow, then open a faucet to drain the remaining water and relieve pressure. Move valuables away from the water and, if it is near electrical outlets or the panel, shut off the power to that area. Then call a plumber. Blackburn Plumbing handles burst pipes in Topeka.
