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 a Skaneateles water heater

The water heater is leaking. Shut it off at its own control, or its breaker if electric, close the cold valve on top, and keep clear of the hot water. If it runs on propane or oil and you smell fuel, leave and contact your supplier from outside.

Deciding

Skaneateles village power and a wet tank

Inside the village, a wet panel is a matter for the village's own Light Department, not National Grid. Outside it, the usual utility applies. Either way, the replacement tank needs a county permit.
