Emergencies in Newton

When a plumbing emergency can't wait

Newton's century-old Victorians and Colonials bring their own emergencies: aging cast-iron drains that back up, galvanized supply lines that let go, and older steam and hot-water heating that quits on the coldest nights. We shut things down safely, stop the damage and restore heat and water — and when the emergency fix requires it, the work is pulled under the proper City of Newton permits and inspected.

We answer 24/7 across all of Newton's villages — Newton Centre, Newtonville, West Newton, Auburndale, Waban, Newton Highlands, Nonantum and Chestnut Hill — and we'll talk you through shutting the water or gas down safely while a truck heads your way.

The emergencies we see most in Newton

  • Aging cast-iron drains backing up in century-old Victorians and Colonials
  • Galvanized supply lines letting go and flooding basements in Newton Centre, Newtonville and West Newton
  • Older steam and hot-water heating quitting on the coldest nights across the villages

We also handle no hot water, gas leaks, sewer & drain backups and frozen pipes 24/7 — and back the emergency fix with a full boiler or water-heater repair or replacement if it's needed.
