Great communication. Text when they were on the way, a photo of what failed, and the invoice matched the quote exactly. That should be normal and somehow it isn't.

Emergency Plumber in Grimes, Iowa
When water is moving somewhere it should not be, the clock matters more than anything else. Our Grimes emergency line is answered by a person, not a machine, and the plumber who takes the call is the one who tells you how long until a truck is in your driveway. We work nights, weekends and holidays across Grimes and the rest of Polk County at the same rate we charge on a Tuesday afternoon.
Call (833) 435-9778 and describe what is happening. We will give you an arrival window before you hang up and a flat price before anyone starts work - the same price at 2am as at 2pm.

Winter splits pipes in the same places every year
The runs that fail in Grimes are predictable: supply lines in exterior walls, anything crossing an unheated crawl space, and hose bibs left connected in November. Ice rarely bursts the pipe where it forms - it bursts it downstream where the pressure has nowhere to go, which is why the damage often shows up somewhere that never froze.

Hot water ran out after one shower. Sediment had taken half the tank. Flush and a new anode rod and it has been fine for two years.

Water bill nearly doubled and I could not find anything wrong. They found a slab leak under the hallway with a listening device, cut one small square of flooring, and fixed it. I was braced for a lot worse.

Emergency Plumber in Grimes: common questions
How fast can a plumber get to me in Grimes?
Most emergency calls in Grimes get a truck moving within the hour. When you call (833) 435-9778 we give you a real arrival window before you hang up, and we call again if traffic or weather changes it.
Do you charge extra at night or on weekends in Grimes?
No. The price we quote for a job in Grimes is the same at 2am on a Sunday as it is at 2pm on a Wednesday. There is no overtime multiplier and no holiday surcharge.
What should I do before the plumber arrives?
Shut the main water valve off if you can reach it safely, then open the lowest faucet in the house to drain pressure out of the lines. If you smell gas, leave the building first and call from outside.
Do you handle emergency calls for businesses too?
Yes. Restaurants, salons, clinics and shops in Grimes get the same 24/7 line. Tell us when you open and we will work around it so you are not closed the next morning.
Do you serve the smaller towns around Grimes?
We do. Our Grimes coverage extends through the surrounding communities, and we run across the whole state, so being outside the city limits does not mean waiting longer or paying a travel premium.
