24/7 emergency plumber in Ottawa.
When a pipe bursts at 2am in -25°C, you don't have time to compare quotes. Adams Plumbing answers Ottawa emergency calls 24 hours a day, 7 days a week — including statutory holidays.
When to call us immediately
A pipe has burst, frozen and split, or is spraying water — turn off your main shut-off and call us.
Sewage is backing up into a basement floor drain, tub or toilet — stop using all water in the home and call.
A toilet is overflowing and a plunger is not working, or a water heater is leaking from the bottom of the tank.
What you can do before we arrive
Shut off the water at the main valve. In older Ottawa homes it may be a round gate valve that turns clockwise to close.
If it is a water heater leak, also turn off the gas or breaker for electric units.
Open the lowest tap in the house to drain residual pressure and document damage with photos for insurance.
Pricing transparency
Our emergency dispatch fee is published before we leave the shop, and the on-site quote is given in writing before any work starts.
