Called about a gas smell near the water heater. They told me to get out of the house first and call the utility, then came and found it. Took it seriously, which I appreciated.

Emergency Plumber in Knoxville, Iowa
When water is moving somewhere it should not be, the clock matters more than anything else. Our Knoxville 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 Knoxville and the rest of Marion 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 Knoxville 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.

Faucet drip in the kitchen that two other people had failed to fix. Correct cartridge, ten minutes, done. Sometimes it just takes someone who carries the right parts.

Emergency Plumber in Knoxville: common questions
How fast can a plumber get to me in Knoxville?
Most emergency calls in Knoxville 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 Knoxville?
No. The price we quote for a job in Knoxville 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 Knoxville 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.
Can you come out the same day in Knoxville?
Yes, most Knoxville calls are handled the same day, and genuine emergencies - flooding, sewage backups, no water, gas smells - get moved to the front of the queue immediately.
