When You Need Emergency Plumbing Repair
Not every plumbing problem requires a call for immediate help, but sometimes, waiting means risking severe property damage and expensive repairs. Here are the situations where you should call for a 24-hour plumber now instead of waiting for an appointment.
Overflowing Toilet
Depending on the size of your household, your bathroom is one of the most used rooms in the house, so it’s no wonder that clogged and overflowing toilets are one of the most common plumbing problems in many homes. When a toilet overflows, there’s the mess that comes with it and the potential for water damage, which means this is a problem that you must fix as quickly as possible.
Burst Pipes
It’s never good when water leaks into the house. Water leaks bring structural damage and can spur the growth of mold and mildew. If you have a pipe that’s burst or is in danger of bursting because it previously froze, call for help right now instead of waiting.
Broken Sewer Lines
Broken sewer lines can lead to property damage, health hazards, and costly repairs if not addressed quickly and professionally. Trenchless sewer line repair is an effective approach to solving these issues. When a sewer line breaks, it can cause sewage backups, foul odors, and even structural damage to your home. Trust us for trenchless sewer line solutions for a fast and minimally invasive fix.
Water Heater Failure
Having on-demand hot water is a necessity for modern living. In some cases, a failed water heater means you have to put up with a cold shower or two when waiting for a plumber to come in and fix it. In contrast, in other cases, such as in the middle of winter, running out of hot water can be detrimental to the health and safety of your family. When you need water heater repair, it’s best to call for help sooner rather than later.
Gas Leaks
Lastly, if you have a natural gas leak in the house, consider it an emergency situation and call for help immediately. Leaking natural gas poses severe health and safety concerns, so don’t ignore this problem and hope it fixes itself.

Signs You Need Water Heater Repair
Most homeowners don’t know they have a problem with their water heater until they step into a freezing shower in the morning. However, it doesn’t have to get to that point to know there’s a problem. The typical water heater gives warning signs that it’s failing far before the system shuts down, allowing you to take action and call for repairs or replacement. Here are the typical warning signs to watch out for.
Fluctuating Water Temperature
Not getting any hot water from your water heater is a no-brainer that something is wrong; however, another sign that things aren’t working properly is if you notice the water temperature fluctuates. This problem can be caused by mineral deposits or a failing heating element.
Strange Noises
Water heaters should operate silently, so when your system begins making strange noises like banging, gurgling, or popping, it means there’s an issue that’s only going to get worse if you ignore it. In most cases, strange noises result from a buildup of mineral deposits result from flushing the tank.
Foul Tasting Water
If your water suddenly develops a metallic taste, it means there’s corrosion happening somewhere in the system. Also, be on the lookout for rust-colored water coming out of one or both of the taps. While you can’t stop corrosion once it starts, you can slow its progress and buy some time while planning on replacing your water heater.
If you notice any of the above signs or your water heater is doing anything else out of the ordinary, call KC’s 23 ½ Hour Plumbing & Air Conditioning and ask about our water heater repair service before the problem worsens.

Why You Should Call a Drain Cleaning Company for Clogged Drains
If you’re like most homeowners, you’ve probably never thought about calling a professional plumber to clean your drains, but this service comes with many benefits over using chemical drain cleaners to unclog your drains, and here are just a few.
Reduces Major Blockages
Regular drain cleaning is preventative maintenance you shouldn’t ignore. Having your drains professionally cleaned regularly keeps them free-flowing and ensures that you won’t experience significant clogs that bring your water flow to a crawl.
Eliminates Odors
If you’ve ever noticed a foul odor coming from your drains, it’s because of the food and other debris that’s stuck in the pipes and begins rotting over time. Chemical drain cleaners often fail to solve this problem, which is why hiring a pro for thorough drain cleaning is the answer to a fresher-smelling home.
Protects Plumbing
Significantly clogged drains never go away on their own, and chemical drain cleaning products often push the clog deeper into the system instead of eliminating it. Over time, clogged drains can cause water pressure to build up, leading to pipes leaking and bursting. Regular drain cleaning ensures that this doesn’t happen by cleaning your pipes from top to bottom. Another thing to consider is that many drain cleaning products use harsh chemicals to clean out clogs, damaging older pipes. Professional drain cleaning is safe for all plumbing and better for the environment.
