Our emergency plumbers are trained and equipped to handle a wide range of urgent plumbing problems.
Burst pipes can flood your home in minutes. We quickly locate the break, shut off the source, remove damaged sections, and perform permanent pipe repairs to restore full system integrity.
Many Scottsdale homes are built on slab foundations. When a slab leak develops, it can compromise your flooring and foundation. Our team uses advanced leak detection equipment to pinpoint the source and recommend the most effective repair solution.
A broken main water line can leave your home without water or cause major yard flooding. We diagnose the issue quickly and repair or replace damaged lines using professional-grade materials built to last.
Sewer backups create serious health risks and property damage. We identify the blockage, clear the line safely, and inspect your system with a free sewer drain camera inspection to prevent repeat problems.
If your water heater is leaking, making loud noises, or has ruptured, immediate service is critical. We repair or replace faulty units to prevent flooding and restore hot water safely.
Gas leaks are dangerous and require immediate professional attention. If you suspect a gas issue, leave the area and call your utility provider first, then contact us for safe repair and restoration.
Scottsdale’s climate and soil conditions create unique plumbing challenges.
Delaying emergency plumbing repairs can lead to foundation damage, mold growth, structural issues, and costly restoration work. Acting quickly protects your home and your investment.

Any situation where water is actively damaging your home, a fixture or system has stopped functioning safely, or a health or safety risk is present qualifies as a plumbing emergency. Common examples include burst or broken pipes, slab leaks with active water intrusion, main water line breaks, sewer backups, overflowing toilets that will not stop, water heater leaks or ruptures, gas line issues, and a complete loss of water to the home. If you are not sure whether your situation qualifies, call us. We will walk you through it and tell you honestly whether you need immediate service or whether it can wait until regular hours. When in doubt, it is always better to call.
Response times depend on your location and how many calls are active at the time, but emergency dispatch is our priority. We serve Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, Phoenix, Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, Glendale, and Tempe, and our technicians are dispatched from the Scottsdale area. When you call, we give you an honest estimated arrival time based on current conditions rather than a vague promise. Our service vehicles are fully stocked so that most emergency repairs can be completed on the same visit without a return trip for parts. Fast arrival matters, but arriving prepared to actually fix the problem matters more.
No. Zest Plumbing & Drain does not charge after-hours fees, weekend surcharges, or holiday premiums. The price for emergency plumbing service on a Sunday night is the same as the price during regular business hours. This is a firm policy, not a promotional offer. Many plumbing companies add significant surcharges for after-hours calls, which means homeowners end up paying a penalty for something that was not their fault. We do not think that is fair, and we have not operated that way since 2008. Upfront pricing is provided before any work begins regardless of when you call.
Yes, and in most emergencies you should. Shutting off the water supply as quickly as possible reduces damage while you wait for a plumber to arrive. The main shutoff valve for your home is typically located near where the main water line enters the house, often in the front, side, or garage of the house. In Scottsdale, it may also be located in a ground-level access box near the street or property line. If only one fixture is involved, the individual shutoff valve under the sink or behind the toilet is faster. If you cannot locate your shutoff or it will not turn, call us immediately and we will guide you through it over the phone.
Yes. We do not perform temporary patches and return later to complete the real repair. When our technicians respond to an emergency, the goal is a permanent, code-compliant fix completed on that visit. Our service vehicles are fully stocked with the materials needed for most common emergency repairs, which is why we can make permanent repairs on the first call rather than stabilizing the situation and scheduling a follow-up. In cases where the scope of the problem requires additional work, such as a full sewer line replacement or a whole house repipe, we complete the immediate emergency portion on the first visit and schedule the larger project with clear communication about what is needed and why.
It depends on the type of damage and how your policy is written. Most homeowner’s insurance policies cover sudden and accidental water damage, such as a pipe that bursts unexpectedly and floods a room before it can be shut off. Gradual damage that developed over time, such as a slow leak that was not caught for weeks or months, is typically excluded because it is considered a maintenance issue. Slab leaks can fall into either category depending on the circumstances and your specific policy language. If you plan to file a claim, professional documentation of the cause, the detection method used, and the repair performed strengthens your case. We are glad to provide that documentation and work alongside your adjuster as needed.
If you smell gas or suspect a gas leak, leave the home immediately without stopping to turn off lights, use your phone, or operate any switches. Do not create any sparks. Once you are safely outside and away from the structure, call your gas utility provider, which is Southwest Gas for most Scottsdale homes, to report the leak and request an emergency shutoff. Once the utility has secured the gas supply and cleared the home for re-entry, contact us for gas line inspection and repair. We handle emergency gas line repairs and will confirm the system is safe and fully repaired before service is restored. Never re-enter the home or attempt to locate the leak yourself.
