Third plumber we called about a main line that kept backing up. First two just cabled it and left. These guys ran a camera, showed me the cracked joint on the screen, and lined it. Two years and no problems since.

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

Older sewer lines here are clay or cast iron
Plenty of Waterloo homes still run their waste out to the street through clay tile with a joint every few feet, and roots find every one of them. Cast iron scales shut from the inside instead. Either way, a main line that backs up twice in a year is telling you something a camera can confirm in twenty minutes.

Bought an older house and had them scope the sewer before closing. Found roots in two joints. We used the video to negotiate the repair into the sale. Best money I spent on that purchase.

Our old cast iron stack was scaled almost shut. They jetted it and the difference was obvious immediately. Showed me before and after footage.

Emergency Plumber in Waterloo: common questions
How fast can a plumber get to me in Waterloo?
Most emergency calls in Waterloo 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 Waterloo?
No. The price we quote for a job in Waterloo 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 Waterloo 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 tell me what is wrong over the phone?
Often we can narrow it down, and sometimes we can tell you it is something you can fix yourself in five minutes. We would rather do that than send a truck you did not need.
