Expert emergency plumbing in Sacramento
Plumbing emergencies don't wait for business hours — and they don't wait for a convenient time. Whether it's a burst pipe flooding your home, a sewage backup, or no hot water in the middle of winter, The Water Works provides 24/7 emergency plumbing service throughout Sacramento, California and Sacramento County.
Our emergency plumbers are licensed, insured, and experienced. We carry common repair parts and equipment on every truck so we can stabilize most emergencies on the spot. We prioritize active flooding, sewage backups, and gas leaks as highest urgency and dispatch accordingly.
When you call, you'll talk to a real person — not a voicemail. We'll help you shut off your water or gas if needed, walk you through immediate steps to minimize damage, and give you a realistic arrival time. Our emergency service includes nights, weekends, and holidays. We provide a written repair report for your insurance if needed.
