Great Neck's mix of historic homes, mid-century neighborhoods, and newer developments means plumbing systems vary widely in age and condition.

Common Urgent Plumbing Issues
Some plumbing problems simply cannot wait. Knowing when to call immediately can save you thousands in water damage and prevent hazardous conditions in your home.
Burst pipes demand instant attention, especially during harsh winter months when Great Neck temperatures plummet. Freezing water expands within pipes, causing splits that can release hundreds of gallons per hour. If you notice discolored water, unusual hissing sounds, or sudden pressure drops, shut off your main valve and call us immediately.
Sewer backups create serious health risks and require professional handling. Foul odors, multiple clogged drains, or water pooling around basement floor drains signal a main line blockage that won't resolve with store-bought remedies.
Gas water heater leaks present potential explosion hazards. If you smell gas near your unit or see water pooling beneath it, evacuate the area and contact emergency services and our team.
Overflowing toilets and major drain blockages can rapidly contaminate living spaces. When plunging fails and water continues rising, professional equipment and expertise become essential.
