Emergency Plumbing
& Heating
A real licensed technician picks up every call — no voicemail, no answering service. We dispatch fast across Coquitlam and the Lower Mainland.
(604) 365-0812What We Handle 24/7
We respond to plumbing and heating emergencies of all types — any time of day or night, weekends and holidays included.
Burst or Leaking Pipes
A burst pipe can dump hundreds of litres into your home in minutes. We respond fast, locate the break, stop the water, and begin repair — any time of day or night.
Sewer Backup
Raw sewage backing up into your drains or toilets is a health emergency. We dispatch immediately to diagnose the blockage and restore drainage — before contamination spreads.
No Heat in Winter
A failed furnace or boiler in cold weather isn't just uncomfortable — it can be dangerous. We prioritize emergency heating calls from October through March.
No Hot Water
Complete loss of hot water affects your whole household. We diagnose and repair water heater failures — gas, electric, and tankless — including same-day service when available.
Gas Leak Suspected
If you smell gas: leave immediately, don't operate any switches, and call FortisBC at 1-800-663-9911. Once the gas is safely off, call us for inspection and repair.
Flooding or Water Damage
Appliance failures, supply line breaks, and overflowing fixtures can all cause rapid flooding. We help stop the source and advise on next steps for water damage mitigation.
