A pipe that has split
Spots on a ceiling, soft drywall or dampness in a crawl space may come from a split pipe. Once you describe where it is, the plumber hunts for the break and replaces that piece of pipe.
Emergency Plumbing in Toms River
When a pipe splits, a drain backs up or water collects where it should not, call and describe what you see. We take down the details and pass the call to a plumber who works your area.
Below are the problems this line takes, a note on winter pipes, and what comes after the first call.
Problems this line takes
Sewage backing up
A tub, shower or floor drain that fills with sewage has a stoppage downstream of it. Sending a camera down the line is how the plumber locates it.
A toilet running over
Toilet water spilling over the rim a second time, or refusing to clear, suggests a blockage beyond the bowl. That stretch of line gets cleared, and then the fixture itself is checked.
Water around the heater
Water collecting near the heater could come from the tank, a valve or a connection. The plumber finds the leak first and then tells you if the heater should be fixed or replaced.
Dry taps after a freeze
No water at the taps after a cold night suggests a frozen or split pipe. The plumber follows the line, then thaws the pipe or replaces it.

After the first call
On the call we describe the next step and give you a free, personalized estimate. Ask the plumber you hire about anything bigger than the emergency fix, such as replacing a section of pipe.
A leak with no visible source is covered under leak detection. If a sewer backup keeps returning after it is cleared, sewer line repair covers the camera work and the repair itself. Both, and the other services, are listed on the homepage.
