Tell us what the water is doing, whether it has stopped and whose home it is. A person reads every request and matches it to a licensed, insured plumber for the part that cannot wait. We cannot promise how soon a request sent at night is read, so close the main shutoff first.

Would you rather talk it through? Call (315) 640-3590.

Once you press send

A person reads it. It is not sold to lead buyers and it is not an auto-reply: someone looks at whether the water has stopped, what is near power or gas, and whose home it is.
Your request goes to a licensed, insured plumber who works your town, who contacts you on the number you give. If it sounds like the utility's pipe rather than yours, you are told that instead.
There is no phone number on this site yet. We would rather say so than print one we cannot vouch for, so the form is the way in. While you wait, keep the main shutoff closed and photograph everything before it is moved.

Five entries are mandatory: name, phone number, email, the property's street address and its ZIP code. The questions and the message box can be skipped. The ZIP code picks the plumber who covers that town, the street line tells them which house, and the address never appears in our logs.

Local Context

First steps at an East Syracuse water heater

Water is spreading from the water heater in an East Syracuse cellar. Turn the gas control to off or the heater's breaker off, if you can reach it dry, then close the cold valve on top of the tank and keep clear of the hot water. In a two unit building, let the other household know before the water reaches their side.

Deciding

East Syracuse tenants and the owner's repair

Nearly half of village households rent, and outside the City of Syracuse the state maintenance code requires working hot water of at least 110 degrees. A failed heater in a rented flat is the owner's repair, and a new tank needs a county permit first.
