Plumbing emergencies can be more stressful than dealing with a simple clogged toilet. When disasters strike, you need an immediate response from a skilled plumbing company that can repair the issue and minimize property damage.

We pride ourselves on treating each client’s plumbing system with the same care we would give our own.

World-Class Emergency Plumbing

When you have a plumbing emergency on your hands, you need to contact a plumber who can handle the job quickly. The longer a massive flood, leak, sewage overflow, or any other issue continues to go on, the more damage your home and belongings sustain.

The Core Plumbing experts know the San Diego area like the backs of our hands due to years of serving residential and commercial clients in the area. We will quickly respond to your emergency plumbing requests, identify the source of the problem, and implement a viable solution.

Types of Plumbing Emergencies

Though most plumbing problems are inconvenient, they are not always emergencies. Emergencies come with a risk of water damage or hazardous waste exposure, such as:

Basement floods from a bad sump pump or leaking pipe
Faucet malfunctions
Overflowing toilets

Here are several other severe plumbing problems:

Water Heater Malfunction: A faulty water heater tank can spill gallons of water into your home. Whether the damage stems from maintenance neglect, corrosion, or improper installation, the water damage can lead to thousands of dollars in property repair and equipment replacement.
Burst Pipes: If too much pressure builds up around a weak point in a pipe, the force can cause the line to burst. Depending on the damage location, the water could flood parts of your house or flow between walls.
Sewer Backups: When wastewater enters your home due to clogged pipes from grease, hair, and scum accumulations, you have a backup on your hands. Sewage exposure can lead to substantial property damage and require biohazard cleanup efforts. Contact Core Plumbing immediately to stop the backup and perform sewer system repair, if necessary.

How To Prevent a Plumbing Emergency in San Diego

There are practical steps you can take to prevent some plumbing disasters:

Never pour fats, oils, or grease down drains
Only flush septic-friendly toilet paper
Use garbage disposals sparingly
Don’t hang anything from an exposed pipe

What Clients Say About Us

I wish I would have called Core Plumbing first. I tried another company that spent an hour here and couldn’t fix the job. Core was on time and done in 30 minutes. Cleared or sewage line and was very kind and knowledgeable.

Theresa B.

Definitely a cut above the rest!! David was on time, knowledgeable, and efficient in replacing a cracked cast iron pipe to ABS, which caused a flood in our home. I have and will continue to use Core Plumbing for our plumbing needs!!
