Frequently Asked Questions
What qualifies as a plumbing emergency?
A plumbing emergency involves critical situations that can cause significant damage to your home or pose health hazards. These issues demand immediate attention to minimize costly repairs and safety risks.
Immediate Risks of a Plumbing Emergency:
Burst Pipes: Can lead to severe water damage, mold growth, and structural issues.
Sewage Backups: Pose serious health risks due to bacteria, contaminants, and foul odors.
Major Leaks: May result in flooding and property damage.
Gas Line Issues: Create a dangerous risk of fire, explosion, or carbon monoxide poisoning.
If you’re facing any of these problems, acting fast is crucial. Just Better Home Services can help prevent further damage and restore your home’s safety.
My toilet is overflowing; how should I handle this?
If your toilet is overflowing, turn off the water supply valve and call a professional plumber immediately to prevent further damage. Overflowing toilets can be caused by:
Clogged Drains: The most common cause is a blockage in the pipes, often due to excessive toilet paper, foreign objects, or buildup over time.
Blocked Vent Pipe: The vent pipe allows air to flow through the plumbing system. If it’s clogged with debris or nests, it can prevent proper drainage, leading to overflows.
Malfunctioning Float Mechanism: If the float inside the tank is not working correctly, the tank may overfill, causing water to spill over
Sewer Line Backup: A clog or damage in the main sewer line can prevent wastewater from draining, causing water to back up into the toilet.
Septic System Issues: If your home has a septic system, an overflowing toilet could indicate that the tank is full or there’s a problem with the drain field.
Faulty Flapper Valve: If the flapper inside the tank doesn’t close properly, water may continue running into the bowl, leading to an overflow.
Excessive Water Pressure or Tank Overfilling: If the water pressure is too high or the refill valve doesn’t shut off properly, the bowl can overflow.
If you are unsure of the cause or cannot fix the issue, call a plumber immediately. Do not turn the water back on until the issue is resolved. At Just Better Home Services, our emergency plumbing service can provide fast, same-day service to resolve issues just like this. If your toilet is overflowing, don't hesitate to call us immediately.
