Plumbing Emergencies We Handle
Burst Pipes
Frozen pipes that burst, corroded pipe failures, or joint blowouts. Boise's freeze-thaw cycles from November through March are the leading cause — don't wait for the damage to spread.
Flooding & Water Damage
Basement flooding, overflowing fixtures, or water heater failures. Every minute of standing water increases structural damage to your Boise home's foundation and drywall.
Sewage Backup
Raw sewage coming up through drains is a health hazard. Common in older Boise neighborhoods with aging sewer laterals — especially the North End and Bench areas.
Water Heater Failure
Leaking tank, no hot water, or a water heater making unusual sounds. A failing water heater in a Boise winter is more than an inconvenience — it's a pipe-freezing risk.
Main Line Break
Your main water or sewer line is damaged, causing low pressure across the whole house or water pooling in the yard. Common in Warm Springs, Columbia Village, and Vista neighborhood homes with older infrastructure. This requires immediate professional diagnosis.
Frozen Pipes
Boise winters regularly drop below 20°F. Pipes in crawl spaces, garages, and exterior walls are most at risk — especially in Hidden Springs, Collister, and homes along the State Street corridor. If water won't flow, call before the pipe bursts.
While You Wait
What to Do During a Plumbing Emergency
Shut off the water
Find your main water shutoff valve — usually near the front of your house where the water line enters, or in the basement/crawl space. Turn it clockwise to close. In most Boise homes, the valve is a gate valve (round handle) or ball valve (lever handle).
Turn off the water heater
If the main water is off, turn off your water heater to prevent overheating. For gas units, set the dial to "pilot." For electric, flip the breaker.
Open a faucet to drain remaining pressure
After shutting off the main, open a faucet on the lowest level of your home to drain the remaining water and relieve pipe pressure. This reduces further leaking.

Avoid Costly Mistakes
What NOT to Do During a Plumbing Emergency
Don't use chemical drain cleaners
Store-bought chemical drain cleaners can corrode pipes — especially the older galvanized steel pipes found in many North End and Downtown Boise homes. They can also create dangerous fumes and make the problem worse. Let a licensed plumber use professional tools instead.
Don't ignore small leaks
A "small" leak can cause thousands of dollars in water damage within hours. Drywall absorbs water quickly, and mold can start growing within 24–48 hours — a common issue in Boise's Warm Springs and Columbia Village homes with finished basements. If you see any leak during an emergency, shut off the water and call immediately.
Don't try to thaw frozen pipes with an open flame
Never use a blowtorch, propane heater, or any open flame to thaw frozen pipes. This is a fire hazard and can cause pipes to burst from thermal shock. Instead, use a hair dryer on low heat or wrap the pipe with warm towels. For homes in Hidden Springs and along the State Street corridor, where crawl spaces are common, call a professional for safe pipe thawing.
Don't leave water running if you suspect a leak
If you hear running water, see wet spots on walls or ceilings, or notice a sudden spike in water pressure — shut off the main valve immediately. Running water through a damaged pipe accelerates structural damage to your home's foundation, subfloor, and insulation. This is especially critical for Boise homeowners in the Bench, Vista, and Northwest Boise areas where older infrastructure is more vulnerable.
Don't attempt DIY repairs on your main line
Main water and sewer line repairs require specialized equipment and are governed by Boise city plumbing codes. An improper repair can lead to contamination, code violations, and even more expensive fixes. Always call a licensed plumber for main line issues.
