Aurora Emergency Plumbing
A plumbing emergency does not wait for business hours, and neither do we. Whether it is a burst pipe in an older Original Aurora home or a failed water heater in a newer Painted Prairie build, our team responds quickly across all three counties Aurora touches.
Rapid Response Plumbing for Aurora Emergencies
Burst pipes, major leaks, and sewage backups can cause serious damage in a short amount of time, and the right response in the first hour often determines how much repair work follows. Our emergency plumbers arrive equipped to shut down the problem fast and start repairs immediately.
Aurora spans Arapahoe, Adams, and Douglas counties, and our team is familiar with the plumbing quirks of each one, from Original Aurora’s aging pipe systems to the newer construction further southeast. If a water heater has failed completely rather than just leaking, our water heater replacement team can also step in same day.

What Counts as a Plumbing Emergency in Aurora
- Burst or actively leaking pipe: Water actively damaging floors, walls, or ceilings needs immediate attention.
- Water heater leaking heavily: A tank that is actively spilling water rather than just showing minor moisture should be addressed right away.
- Sewage backing up into the home: A health hazard that needs immediate response.
- Gas smell near a gas line or water heater: Shut off the gas supply if it is safe to do so and call immediately.
Not every plumbing issue needs an emergency call, but a few situations should never wait.
Should I shut off my water before help arrives?
Yes, if a pipe has burst or is leaking heavily, shutting off the main water supply immediately limits the damage while you wait for a plumber. Every Aurora homeowner should know where their main shutoff valve is located before an emergency happens, since finding it during an active leak wastes valuable time.
Is a slow leak still an emergency?
A slow, contained leak, like a dripping faucet or a toilet that runs occasionally, typically is not an emergency and can be scheduled as a standard repair. The distinction is whether water is actively causing damage right now versus a problem that is stable enough to wait a day or two for a normal appointment.
Do you offer weekend and holiday emergency service in Aurora?
Yes, plumbing emergencies do not check the calendar, and our team is available to respond on weekends and holidays when a burst pipe, major leak, or sewage backup cannot wait for the next business day. We treat every emergency call with the same urgency regardless of when it comes in.
