What to Do Before Our 24 Hour Plumbers Arrive

Here’s what to do and how to prepare before an experienced 24-hour plumber from Sunny Home Services arrives at your West Jordan home:

Turn your water off at the local valve or at the main shut-off valve.

Switch the power or gas to your water heater off (when applicable).

Turn circuit breakers designated for leaking outlets, appliances, or water heaters off at the main breaker panel.

If you have issues with a gas water heater or gas appliance, turn off the main gas supply or set the pilot light to “off.”

Remove as much standing water as possible using towels and a mop and bucket to help dry out flooded areas.

Protect your belongings by moving furniture, area rugs, electronics, and other valuables out of wet areas in the home.

Common Emergency Plumbing Issues We Handle

At Sunny Home Services, we know that every home is different, but we do encounter some common emergency plumbing issues in West Jordan and the Wasatch Front, including:

Frozen and burst pipes caused by our deep winter sub-zero temperatures occur when exposed lines in garages, crawl spaces, and exterior areas start to thaw.
Since the Wasatch Front has some of the hardest water in Utah, many homeowners encounter a leaking or ruptured water heater tank due to hard water scale and mineral buildup.
Older neighborhoods in West Jordan often face issues like tree root intrusion and excess scale that may lead to blockages that cause sewage backups into floor drains and tubs.
Although it’s not a regional issue, we often encounter overflowing toilets and fixtures due to a hidden clog or stuck valve that forces water to spill over onto floors.

Why West Jordan Homes Are Prone to Plumbing Emergencies

You may wonder why so many homes in West Jordan are prone to plumbing emergencies. These emergencies may occur due to:

✓ Hard water: West Jordan’s water supply has a very high content of minerals like calcium and magnesium with a hardness scale of approximately 10 to 25+ grains per gallon that creates intense scale buildup in valves, pipes, and water heater tanks, leading to leaks and water damage.
✓ Freezing weather: Extremely cold, sub-zero winter snaps in our region can freeze uninsulated exterior pipes, causing cracks and bursting when the pipes thaw.
✓ Soil conditions: Heavy clay soil in the Wasatch Front expands during periods of heavy rain and contracts when it dries, putting excess stress on sewer lines and underground pipes.
✓ Aging infrastructure: Older homes built in the 1970s and 1980s may still have galvanized steel or polybutylene pipes that are vulnerable to leaks and corrosion.
✓ Tree root intrusion: As trees mature, their roots grow down into the ground, infiltrating clay or cast iron pipes, leading to massive backups that require professional sewer line inspection and repair.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you document plumbing repairs before work begins?

Can hard water cause a plumbing emergency?

If your home has hard water, it causes mineral buildup and excess sediment that can eventually clog your pipes, sewer line, and/or water heater tank. Having hard water accelerates buildup that often leads to cracks and leaks that require emergency services.
