Gas Leak Warnings and Safety Procedures
If you smell a gas-like odor in or around your property, immediately evacuate the area. Do not flip on or off any light switches, plug or unplug any appliances, or turn on a flashlight before exiting the premises. The battery from the flashlight could produce a spark, igniting the area of leaked gas.
Call us first at (760) 276-5817 and let us assess the situation for you. Once we arrive, if we determine it is on the SDG&E side of the meter, we can call SDG&E for you.
You may also call the SDG&E emergency number at 1-800-611-7343 or 9-1-1 from an outside phone, but doing so may run the risk of putting your property in a gas lockout, taking days, weeks, or even months to get the gas turned back on. It all depends on how quickly they can assess the situation, and whether or not they deem the area as livable. Do not re-enter your home until a gas company official has inspected the premises and has let you know it is safe for re-entry.

What Kinds of Emergency Plumbing Services Do We Offer?
At Anderson, we offer a wide range of emergency plumbing services. Part of these services include emergency drain services for drain clogs and blockages as well as emergency heating and cooling services for AC and heater repair. No matter the situation, it is important to stay calm and assess the problem at hand before taking drastic measures. Various situations can lead to a plumbing emergency:
Emergency Plumbing Leak Repairs for a Burst Pipe
If you have a burst pipe due to ground movement from seismic activity, corrosion over time, severe pressure build ups from clogs, or poorly installed pipes, consider calling Anderson Plumbing, Heating & Air. Burst pipes can cause extensive water damage, compromising the structural integrity of your home. It can also lead to mold, increased water bills, and can come into contact with electrical wiring and appliances, creating a risk of an electrical shock or a fire.
There are some signs that can help you diagnose a burst pipe. If you notice an unexplained spike in your water bill, water stains on floors, walls, or ceilings, or lower water pressure—it could mean you have a burst pipe. Depending on the severity of the burst pipe, we may need to consider repiping a big portion of the plumbing system. Even if you have a busy schedule, we have weekday technicians and weekend plumbers ready to offer pipelining and repiping services if this ever happens.
Plumbing Repairing Services for a Leaking Water Heater
A lot of homeowners take minor water heater issues for granted and end up having to pay for costly repairs later on. Water heater repairs are some of the most costly repairs in the plumbing world, and you can prevent unnecessary repairs by performing routine water heater maintenance at least once or twice a year. You don’t need an emergency plumber for this, and can schedule an appointment with us online. Our maintenance technicians will flush out the mineral buildup from your water heater, improving its efficiency and longevity.
Outdoor Plumbing Repair for a Broken Sewer Line
If there is a crack in the sewer line, it can be very dangerous to your home. The sewer line leak can flood your yard with sewage, as well as compromise the structural integrity of your home’s foundation. Our San Diego emergency plumbers can conduct a thorough inspection of the sewer line, repair line leaks, and install a sewer line replacement if need be.
Emergency Services for Clogs and Blockages
When it comes to clogs and blockages, you can rely on our emergency drain services. We know how frustrating and inconvenient a clogged pipe can be. While it may not be as severe as a gas leak or a broken sewer line, they can completely ruin a living space and make it uncomfortable to do daily tasks. So if you need an emergency plumber now, call us at (760) 276-5817 and our team will be on its way!
San Diego Locals are at High Risk for Plumbing Emergencies
There are several factors that contribute to the need for fast and reliable emergency plumbing services in San Diego. Here are some reasons why San Diegans encounter issues and might need an emergency plumber now:
Earthquakes
San Diego is located in a seismically active region, where even small earthquakes can cause pipes to leak or burst. These tremors can cause damage to the plumbing system in the bathroom, kitchen, or even the foundation of a home. Inspecting your property for cracks in the foundation or uneven piping is a necessity after an earthquake. Consider calling Anderson for emergency plumbing repair services.
Aging Infrastructure & Coastal Climate
Many homes and buildings in San Diego were built a long time ago, and don’t have updated plumbing systems. As their plumbing systems age, their piping is more prone to breaks, leaks, and other failures. This, combined with the corrosion caused by the coastal climate can be detrimental to older plumbing systems. If you notice recurring dripping sounds or leaks, you might want to get your property inspected for water damage. Water damage is dangerous as it can threaten the structural integrity of the home, and can cause major plumbing issues.
Hard Water
Any water above 180 ppm (parts per million) is considered relatively hard. San Diego has a water hardness of 276 ppm (way above average), which can lead to mineral buildup in pipes and appliances. This can lead to clogs and other pipe-related damages. If you start to experience lower water pressure and high energy bills, there is a high probability our emergency plumbers can clear out those deposits and help restore consistent water flow. You can also prevent buildups from occurring by asking one of our San Diego plumbers to install a Whole Home Water Filtration system.
Seasonal Rain
Heavy rains can cause an overflow and overwhelm drainage systems, and often cause tree roots to grow inside your toilet sewer drain line. The flooding can cause backups to commercial and residential properties, sometimes requiring a team of emergency plumbers to find an efficient solution.
FAQs
Toilet clogs are one of the most common bathroom plumbing issues and may require immediate action to avoid an overflow. If your toilet starts to overflow right after you flush it, remove the lid on the back of the toilet and press down on the rubber flapper valve until the tank stops filling up. When the rubber flapper is secure, raise the float arm and hold both items in place until the water level returns to normal.
A severe sink clog will require the help of an emergency plumber; however, some clogs can be fixed with simple, DIY unclogging methods such as using a drain cleaner, pouring boiling water down the drain, or using a clean plunger to dislodge the clog. If the clog is bad enough, you may need an emergency drain service cleaning to fix the issue.
If you don’t have any hot water in your house, the first thing you should check is the pilot light under your water heater. Additionally, make sure the power source to the water heater is connected and that the water heater thermostat is set to a proper warmth. In some cases, the thermostat is accidentally pushed to a cold setting. If you don’t want to deal with the hassle of checking what issues your water heater may have, you may have to call an emergency plumber.
First, you’ll need to turn off your main water line to fully disconnect the water supply from your house. Your main water line may be found in a crawl space or near your water heater. If the shut-off isn’t somewhere inside your house, it will probably be near the street under a metal lid. If you are too busy to find and disconnect your main water line, you might need to search for an emergency plumber in San Diego. In the meantime, if you know where the leak is coming from, you can mop up the water to avoid mold or mildew accumulation.
