Immediate Steps to Take

There is no time to lose when a plumbing crisis occurs; acting with some caution can limit the damage.

While you wait for a licensed plumber to make it out to your property in Navarre, we recommend the following:

If there is interior flooding, turn off the local shutoff valve or the main water supply right away.
Should a toilet or sewer be backing up, do not flush and stay off any faucets or appliances that feed the sewer line.
Stay clear of any sewage. It is a biological hazard and a health risk, so keep pets and children well away from the affected zone.
In the event of a flood and you cannot get to the shut-off, many communities will shut the water at the meter to spare you further damage.

The history of the house is important, too. If you recently purchased a home and discover evidence of several older plumbing repairs, we may recommend looking more closely at the system before assuming each patch was an unrelated event.

The Way Riptide Plumbing Approaches an Emergency Call

We will get on the phone and size up the situation so you have a clear idea of your options and what comes next.

Our typical triage process looks like this:

We determine if the issue is isolated to one fixture or the entire house. A clogged sink trap or a small supply line leak might be something we can put on the schedule for tomorrow; an active leak or whole-house stoppage demands we be there now.
Where there is an active leak, our first order of business is to halt the water and use our tools to find any hidden leaks before they do structural harm.
With a sewer stoppage we will diagnose whether it is a localized problem with a grease clog or a main line matter and put the proper drain services in place, from rooter work to video camera inspection.

Our Tools and Techniques

To resolve these matters in a safe and timely fashion, our technicians rely on professional grade equipment.

You can expect us to use:

Hydro jetting, cutters and sewer machines to put an end to stubborn clogs
Video cameras for a close look at sewer lines to spot intrusions or breaks
Thermal imagers, geophones and moisture meters to track down underground or slab leaks
When a sewer or slab leak must be isolated, we will do the necessary targeted excavation and hydrostatic testing

Why a Prompt Response Matters

Getting a professional on site quickly is the best way to contain costs and damage. We will stop the source of the water and drain the system as needed. If there is a chance of sewage backing up into the home, we will isolate the leak or clear the line; should the contamination be severe, we can coordinate the specialized cleanup or septic service required in Navarre. We also offer sound advice on whether a full replacement or a temporary fix is the wiser long-term play for a damaged fixture or water line.

Health and Safety

Standing wastewater and sewage are not to be trifled with. If either makes its way onto your walls or flooring, you will likely need professional remediation to make the space safe again, which can mean removing drywall and baseboards. Heed your plumber’s counsel on containment and keep children and animals at a distance.

A Few Words on Prevention

Wipes and paper towels are a common cause of main sewer line trouble; do not put them in the toilet.
Grease poured down the kitchen sink will build up and create blockages, so avoid it.
Make sure you know where the main water shut-off is and how to use it. Give the supply line connections and valves an occasional once-over.
If you have an older system or notice low pressure, put in for a camera inspection or routine drain cleaning.

They showed up within the time they said they would, quickly figured out what was needed, then got to work right away. They did a great job replacing my water heater connections and a broken spigot. Everything worked without any issues and they checked inside my house to ensure nothing else was negatively affected. I would highly recommend them to anyone!

Riptide plumbing came through for me and my family. After calling multiple companies waiting over night waiting for someone to show up. I called riptide at 7am and they had someone to me in a few short hours. Work was done and efficient ALEC was professional and very friendly. If I could give them 100 star rating I would.
