Yes — we’re here for plumbing and HVAC emergencies whenever you call.
A real person answers our phones 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to understand what’s happening and guide you toward the right next step — whether that’s immediate dispatch or the next available appointment during regular hours, including Saturdays.
Not every urgent situation requires a middle-of-the-night dispatch — but many do. When there’s a safety concern, flooding risk, sewer issue, or a major comfort system failure in extreme weather, it should be treated as an emergency.
Emergencies usually fall into one of three categories:
If you’re unsure, calling is always the right move — we’ll walk through the problem and help you decide.
Common emergencies usually fall into two categories — urgent plumbing/drain issues and heating or cooling failures during unsafe conditions. Below is a quick guide to the types of problems we treat as emergencies, along with resources from our blog to help you understand what’s happening.
| Emergency Issue (with Blog Link) | Why It’s an Emergency |
|---|---|
Burst Pipe or Major Leak |
Water escaping where it shouldn’t can lead to structural damage, mold growth, and electrical hazards within minutes. Shut off your water and call immediately. |
Sewer Backup or Strong Sewer Odor |
Sewage backing up into drains or entering your home is a direct health risk. This requires immediate professional attention. |
| No Water or Sudden Loss of Water Pressure | A sudden drop in water pressure or no water at all may signal a broken main line, a major underground leak, or severe blockage. These issues can worsen rapidly and require prompt diagnosis. |
No Heat During Freezing Temperatures |
In freezing weather, losing heat can quickly become unsafe for children, older adults, and pets. This should always be treated as an emergency. |
HVAC Failure During Extreme Heat |
Albuquerque heat can push indoor temperatures to dangerous levels. A sudden AC failure or evaporative cooler blowing hot air during a heatwave is more than uncomfortable — it can be unsafe. |
Burning Smells, Smoke, or Electrical Issues from HVAC Equipment |
These symptoms may indicate overheating, electrical failure, or fire risk. Turn off the system and call immediately for guidance. |
