24/7 Emergency Plumber in Decatur, IN
Andrews Plumbing offers 24/7 emergency plumbing service for homes and businesses in Decatur, IN and across Adams, Wells and Allen Counties in Indiana and Van Wert County, Ohio. When you call after hours, our team first assesses whether the problem is a true emergency or can safely wait until regular hours, so you get help fast when you need it and are not paying for an emergency visit when you do not.
Our regular hours are Monday through Friday, 7:00 am to 5:00 pm. Outside those hours, call (260) 202-0286 and tell us what is happening. Because we own our sewer cameras and excavation equipment, the same team can handle the emergency and the repair that follows, including sewer line repair, well pump and sump pump repair and water heater replacement.
What Counts as a Plumbing Emergency?
Burst or leaking pipes
Water spraying or pouring from a pipe, or a leak you cannot stop, can damage floors, walls and ceilings in minutes.
Sewer backups
Sewage coming up through floor drains, tubs or toilets is a health hazard and usually means a blocked or broken sewer line.
No water
A failed well pump, pressure tank or main line can leave the whole house without water.
Failed sump pump
A sump pump that stops during heavy rain or snowmelt puts your basement at risk of flooding.
Leaking water heater
A water heater leaking from the tank, or a home with no hot water in winter, needs prompt attention.
Frozen pipes
Frozen lines can split when they thaw. Shut off the water and call before the ice melts if you can.
Smell Gas? Leave First, Then Call
If you smell gas, leave the building right away. Do not use light switches, phones or anything that could cause a spark inside. Once you are outside, call your gas utility's emergency line or 911.
What to Do While You Wait
- 1
Shut off the water
Close the main shutoff valve, usually where the water line enters the house or near the well pressure tank. For a single fixture, use the valve under the sink or behind the toilet.
- 2
Turn off the water heater
If the water heater is leaking, turn off its power (electric) or set the gas control to off or pilot, then close the cold water valve above the tank.
- 3
Stop using drains
During a sewer backup, stop running water, flushing toilets and using the washer until the line is cleared.
- 4
Keep people away from water and power
Do not walk through standing water near outlets, appliances or the electrical panel.
