• What should I do if my toilet is overflowing?

• What should I do if a pipe is leaking?

  If a pipe is actively leaking, shut off the closest fixture valve or the main water supply if it is safe to do so, then place a bucket or towels under the leak. Contact us and we will review the situation.

• What should I do if I smell gas?

  If you smell gas, leave the building immediately, do not flip switches or use phones inside, and contact your gas utility or 911 from outside. Do not attempt gas repairs on your own.

  Yes. We diagnose and repair sewer lines in Hampton and Newport News — from main-line clogs and root intrusion to broken or collapsed pipe, sewer backups, and full sewer line replacement.
