Sewage backup
Sewage coming up a floor drain, tub or toilet. We clear the main line and find the cause with our sewer line repair service.

Every faucet dry. Usually a frozen line, a main water line break or a well pump problem. We find it and fix it.
Main water line break
Water bubbling up in the yard or a sudden drop in pressure. Our water line repair service fixes the line from the meter or well to your home.
Burst washer hose
Washing machine hose split and flooding the laundry room. We replace the hose and the shut-off valves if they fail.
Broken shut-off valve
The main or fixture valve will not close, or it leaks when you turn it. We replace the valve so you can control your water again.
Gas line leak
Gas smell or hissing near a pipe. Leave and call the gas company first. Then our gas line repair service fixes the line.

Emergency Plumber in York, PA: FAQs

Yes. York Plumbing Pros is open 24/7 for plumbing emergencies across York County. Call (717) 750-0749 any time, day or night.
What counts as a plumbing emergency?
Water you cannot stop, sewage coming up a drain, a flooding basement, no water in the house, a water heater leaking from the tank, or a gas smell. If water is damaging your home right now, it is an emergency.
What should I do before the plumber gets there?
Turn off the main water valve. Turn off power to wet areas if you can reach the panel safely. Move valuables away from the water and put towels or buckets under leaks. Take photos of the damage for your insurance company.
Where is the main water shut-off valve?
In most York County homes it is in the basement, where the water pipe comes in through the front wall, often next to the water meter. Turn the handle to the right (clockwise) until it stops. Homes with a well can also turn off the well pump breaker.
What if I smell gas?
Leave the house right away and do not use light switches, phones or appliances inside. Call your gas company's emergency line or 911 from outside. After the gas company makes the home safe, call us to repair the gas line.
Will my home insurance cover a burst pipe?
Many home insurance policies cover sudden water damage, but every policy is different. Call your insurance company to check. Taking photos before cleanup and stopping the water quickly both help your claim.
