5-star Google reviews ★★★★★ ★★★★★ "NATHAN to the rescue! Nathan showed up to my house for a late afternoon call. He was very easy to talk to and took his time to explain the hows and whys of each step. He allowed me to ask many questions and answered them all. Not once did I feel like he was rushing to complete the job. TRUST & REASSURANCE on the spot!"

Joanne CrossanWe find it first. Then we talk price.
On Call has been locally owned since 2009. When we show up, we're looking for the actual problem — not the most expensive fix. Our plumbers aren't paid on commission, so there's no pressure to sell you something you don't need. We'll tell you what we found and what it costs, and the decision is yours.

Emergency Plumber On Call FAQs
Is there really no service call fee?
Yes, for now — normally $89. Ask when you call.
What counts as a plumbing emergency?
Active water coming in somewhere it shouldn't, sewage backing up, or anything you can't safely use your house around. When in doubt, call.
What should I do before the plumber gets there?
Shut off water to the fixture if you can — or the main shutoff if the leak is bad. Don't use any drains if sewage is backing up.
Do you answer after hours?
Yes. 24/7 means 24/7.
