Emergency Plumber FAQs for West Bend, WI
What to know before and during a plumbing emergency, and when it is time to call for 24/7 emergency plumbing help.
What counts as a plumbing emergency?
A plumbing emergency is any problem that is actively causing water damage, threatens your health or leaves you without essential service. Common examples include a burst or leaking water line, sewage backing up into the home, no water at all, a failed water heater leaking onto the floor and a flooding basement. A slow drip or a single slow drain can usually wait for regular hours, though a quick pipe repair still prevents bigger trouble later.
Is a sewage backup in a floor drain an emergency?
Usually, yes. Sewage coming up through a basement floor drain or a lower toilet often points to a blocked main sewer line, and every fixture you use pushes more wastewater toward that backup. Stop running water, avoid flushing and keep people and pets away from the contaminated area. Once the emergency is handled, professional drain cleaning can clear the line and help keep it from happening again.
What should I do if I smell gas in my home?
Leave the home right away, without switching lights on or off or using anything that could spark. Once you are outside, call your gas utility or 911 from a safe distance and follow their instructions. After the utility has made the area safe, a plumber can locate and repair the damaged gas pipe or fitting and test the line before your appliances go back into service.
Can a failed sump pump wait until morning?
If water is rising in the sump pit or already reaching the basement floor, it typically cannot wait. During heavy rain or the spring thaw in Wisconsin, a stopped sump pump can let a basement flood within hours. Check that the pump is plugged in and the breaker has not tripped, move valuables off the floor, then call 262-644-7045 for emergency plumbing service.
What information helps when I call an emergency plumber?
Describe what you see and where it is happening, whether you have shut off the water or the gas, and how long the problem has been going on. Mention if the water heater, the sump pump or a sewer backup is involved and whether water is reaching finished areas. Photos are helpful too. Clear details let the plumber arrive prepared with the right parts and tools for your emergency plumbing repair.

I built a new home and Wilkes was great from start to finish. Caroline in the office was always helpful when I had questions. Jerry went above and beyond in not only taking care of the plumbing, but also to coordinate with other contractors to make sure all of the small details were handled correctly by all. I would highly recommend. Thanks for a great experience!

Very friendly staff, very professional. For some reason I trusted them right after my initial phone call regarding my issues at my house, Robert showed up when me and my wife were at work I opened up my garage door and he did his thing and closed my garage when he was finished. Would highly reccomend them to anyone and definitely use them again in the future for my household needs!

What a fantastic company! Not only did they come out and fix our sink drain and install a water heater in a timely fashion, they just went above and beyond to help us out! We just recently moved to a new house and they were more than understanding with our needs both financially and for the house. I recommend Rob highly for any plumbing needs! Thank you again for everything

Wilkes did a great job and coordinated with the biz doing our new flooring (Ideal Custom Flooring). We had 2 plumbers out that were friendly, efficient and patient with working around all of us being in the house as well. Highly recommend but they are a very busy shop so your best bet is scheduling well in advance of your plumbing needs, excluding emergencies.
