When a pipe bursts in your Capitol Hill brownstone at midnight, or a sewer backs up in your Washington Park home on a Saturday, the last thing you want is a voicemail. Plumb Pros Inc. is the emergency plumber for Denver, CO that actually picks up — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year — and dispatches a licensed technician the same call.
We're based in Arvada and have served Denver and the surrounding metro since 2002. Most Denver addresses are reachable within 30 to 60 minutes from our dispatch. Every emergency call is handled by a fully licensed, background-screened Colorado plumber who arrives with the parts to resolve the most common emergencies on the first visit. No diagnostic fees. Upfront pricing before any work begins. No surprises on the invoice.
Call (303) 430-1911 — we answer every call, day or night.
Stop the Damage: What to Do While We're on the Way
The few minutes between when a plumbing emergency starts and when a technician arrives can make the difference between a manageable repair and a flooded basement. If you're dealing with a burst pipe, major leak, or sewage backup in your Denver home, take these steps immediately:
- Shut off the main water supply. Your main shutoff valve is typically located in the basement near the water meter, in a utility room, or in a front-yard curb box near the street. Turn it clockwise until it stops. This is the single most effective action you can take to limit damage.
- Drain the lines. Once the main is off, open the lowest faucet in the house — usually a basement utility sink or a ground-floor bathroom — to drain water away from the leak point and reduce pressure in the lines.
- Kill power near water. If water is near electrical outlets, your furnace, your water heater, or your electrical panel, shut off the main breaker before touching anything. Water and electricity in contact is a life-safety issue, not just a plumbing issue.
- Don't use any drains. If you suspect a sewer backup, stop using all fixtures immediately. Running water into a backed-up line will make the situation significantly worse.
Once you've taken these steps, call us at (303) 430-1911. We'll walk you through anything else specific to your situation while a technician is in route.
Emergency Plumbing Services We Handle in Denver, CO
Plumb Pros Inc. responds to the full range of residential and commercial plumbing emergencies across Denver. Our trucks are stocked for the most common Denver emergency calls so we can resolve most issues in a single visit.
Burst and Frozen Pipes Denver's freeze-thaw cycle — with temperatures that can swing 40 degrees in a single day and regularly drop below zero in January and February — puts real stress on pipes in uninsulated exterior walls, crawl spaces, and garage utility rooms. We respond to burst pipe calls across all Denver neighborhoods and carry the materials to make permanent repairs, not temporary patches.
Sewer Line Backups Much of Denver's residential sewer infrastructure was installed decades ago using clay tile and cast iron pipe. Root intrusion, joint separation, and corrosion are common in older neighborhoods like Baker, Sunnyside, Cole, and Five Points. When a sewer backs up, we dispatch with hydro-jetting equipment and camera inspection capability to locate the blockage, clear it, and tell you what caused it.
Water Heater Failures A water heater leaking from the tank body cannot be repaired — it needs to be replaced before it floods. We carry Bradford White, Navien, and Rinnai units on our service vehicles and can complete same-day water heater replacements throughout Denver. If you're seeing water pooling at the base of your unit, call immediately.
Gas Line Leaks If you smell gas in your Denver home, leave the building without operating any switches or appliances, then call 911 and Xcel Energy's emergency line from outside. Once the gas company has secured the line, call Plumb Pros at (303) 430-1911 for certified gas line repair. We are licensed for gas piping work in the City and County of Denver.
Drain Emergencies Severely clogged or collapsed drain lines that affect multiple fixtures simultaneously are an emergency — especially when the backup is reaching finished floors. We use hydro-jetting for complete blockage removal rather than augers that punch a temporary hole through the clog.
Pipe Leaks and Water Damage Active leaks inside walls, under slabs, or at fixture connections need to be addressed immediately to prevent mold, structural damage, and drywall deterioration. We handle leak detection and pipe repair for all pipe materials found in Denver homes — copper, CPVC, galvanized steel, and PEX.
