Why people call us

When a pipe lets go, you need a plain answer to one question: who do I call? In Johnston, Wake and Harnett counties, the answer is one number, any hour.

A person on the line

Calls are answered around the clock, and we start by helping you stop the water before anything else.

Straight talk on cost

You hear the options and what they involve before work starts. Repair when repair makes sense, replace when it does not.

Local by default

We know the difference between a Clayton slab, a Smithfield crawl space and a Harnett County well house.

The next five minutes

Water where it should not be? Do this first.

These steps are safe for most homeowners and limit damage while help is on the way. Your safety comes before your floors.

Call (919) 792-8705
  1. Step 01

    Shut off the water

    Close the fixture valve if the leak is at one sink or toilet. Otherwise close the main shutoff, usually where the water line enters the house, in the crawl space, a utility closet, the garage or near the water heater. On a well, you can also switch off the well pump breaker.

  2. Step 02

    Make it electrically safe

    Keep clear of standing water near outlets, cords or appliances. Only switch off a breaker if you can reach the panel while standing somewhere dry. If you are unsure, stay out of the area.

  3. Step 03

    Secure the water heater

    If the heater is leaking, close its cold supply valve and turn off the breaker (electric) or set the gas control to off (gas). If you smell gas, leave the house first and call your gas utility or 911 from outside.

  4. Step 04

    Call, then protect what you can

    Call (919) 792-8705. While you wait, move valuables and electronics up and away, catch drips, and take photos for your insurance company.

Home ground

JoCo first. The whole southern Triangle close behind.

Johnston County has grown up fast. New subdivisions off NC-42 in Clayton sit a short drive from crawl-space homes near downtown Smithfield and well-fed farmhouses outside Four Oaks and Kenly. Each one asks something different of a plumber.

From that base we work up into Raleigh, Garner, Cary, Apex, Fuquay-Varina and Holly Springs, and across into Angier, Lillington, Coats, Erwin and Dunn in Harnett County.

Questions

Good to know before you need it.

Still unsure? A phone call is the quickest answer.

Where is my main water shutoff valve?

In most Triangle homes it is where the water line enters the house: in the crawl space near the front foundation wall, in a utility or water heater closet, or in the garage. Slab homes often have it near the water heater. There is also a curb valve at the meter, usually in a box near the street, though some utilities prefer that only they operate it. Find yours before you need it.

What should I do first if a pipe bursts?

Close the main water shutoff, stay away from water near electrical equipment, and open a faucet at the lowest point of the house to relieve pressure. Then call us at (919) 792-8705. We answer 24/7.

What parts of North Carolina do you serve?

Johnston, Wake and Harnett counties, including Clayton, Smithfield, Selma, Benson, Four Oaks, Kenly, Raleigh, Garner, Cary, Apex, Fuquay-Varina, Holly Springs, Angier, Lillington, Dunn, Coats and Erwin. We do not serve Durham or Orange counties.

Are you really available 24/7?

Yes. Emergency calls are answered 24 hours a day, every day of the year, including nights, weekends and holidays.

How do I book non-emergency work?

Call (919) 792-8705 for urgent help or to discuss scheduling. For non-urgent questions and service inquiries, you can also use the form on our Contact page. A form submission is not a confirmed appointment.

How do I keep pipes from freezing during a cold snap?

Disconnect garden hoses, close crawl-space vents, let faucets on exterior walls drip slightly on the coldest nights, and open sink cabinet doors so warm air reaches the pipes. If a pipe freezes, never use an open flame to thaw it.

Save the number before you need it.
