From Emergency Repairs to Full Installations
Whether it’s a leaking pipe, a failing water heater, or plumbing for a brand-new build, our licensed team handles projects of every size across the metro east region.
Emergency Plumbing
Burst pipes, sewer backups, no hot water, when it can’t wait, we answer. Day or night, Priority Plumbing shows up fast and fixes it right the first time.
Drains &
Sewer
Slow drains, clogs, and sewer line problems don’t fix themselves. From drain cleaning to full sewer replacement, we diagnose the root cause and get it flowing again.
Commercial Plumbing
Businesses can’t afford plumbing downtime. We handle everything from backflow testing and maintenance contracts to restaurant drain service and new construction rough-ins.
Water
Quality
If your water smells, tastes off, or leaves buildup on everything — there’s a fix. We install whole-home filtration, water softeners, HALO systems, and treat well water at the source.
Water
Heaters
No hot water is never convenient. We repair, replace, and install both tank and tankless water heaters — usually same day, and always with upfront pricing.
Pumps
Sump pumps, well pumps, ejector pumps — we install, repair, and replace all of them. Don’t wait for a pump failure to become a flooded basement or a dry tap.

Our Emergency Plumbing Services
Emergency situations can show up in different ways. Some are obvious. Others build up over time and suddenly get worse. Priority Plumbing is here, ready to respond. Below are the most common emergency services we handle:
Leaks behind walls, under floors, or under concrete can cause damage before you even notice them. We locate the source and fix the issue without doing more work than needed.
If sewage is coming back into your home or drains are backing up in multiple areas, it’s usually a main line issue. We clear the blockage and identify what caused it.
Water spreading across floors or filling up a basement can do serious damage quickly. We stop the source and assess what needs to be done next.
Cold Illinois winters can freeze pipes fast. If water stops flowing or pressure suddenly drops, a frozen pipe could be the cause. We step in before it turns into a burst pipe situation.
Not Sure If It's an Emergency Plumbing?
Not every plumbing issue needs immediate service, but some do. If you’re unsure, here’s a simple way to look at it.
Call us
immediately
Water actively spreading or rising in your home. Sewage visible inside the house. You smell gas near a water appliance or pipe. A pipe has burst and you can’t shut off the water.
Call us
today
No hot water and you have a household to run. A toilet is completely out of service. A drain is backing up in multiple fixtures. You see water staining growing on a ceiling or wall.
Schedule at your
convenience
A slow drain in one fixture.
A dripping faucet. A running toilet that isn’t leaking. These are real problems worth fixing, but they’re not emergencies.
Shut off your
water first
If water is actively spraying or flowing from a pipe, find your main shutoff and turn it off before you call. It’s usually near your water meter or where the main line enters your home. Then call us.
Commercial property emergency
A plumbing failure in a restaurant, retail space, or commercial building can shut down operations. We serve commercial clients across Metro East Illinois on the same 24/7 basis as residential.
Why Having a Trusted Emergency Plumber Matters
When something goes wrong, the response matters just as much as the repair.
- Faster action helps limit damage
Water can spread quickly and cause problems behind walls, under floors, and in areas you can’t see. Getting help sooner helps reduce the impact.
- One call, clear answers
You call, we answer. We’ll talk through what’s happening and let you know what to expect before we arrive.
- Repair-first approach
Even in an emergency, we don’t jump straight to replacement. If something can be fixed, we’ll fix it first. If more work is needed, we’ll explain why.
- Work that holds up
Emergency repairs shouldn’t be temporary fixes. We do the job the right way and stand behind it with a 1-year warranty and a 100% satisfaction guarantee.
- Same service for homes and businesses
We handle both residential and commercial emergencies across the area with the same level of care and attention.
Flexible Payment Options
We know that an emergency plumber visit is rarely a planned expense.
To help take the weight off your shoulders, we offer financing through Housecall Pro and Wisestack.Â
Â
The process is low-stress, featuring an easy pre-qualification step and quick approvals for various credit levels.
Â
 We also accept cash or check if you’d like to help us eliminate extra credit card fees.
When a Plumbing Problem Can’t Wait, We’re Ready
Some problems give you time to think. Others don’t.
Â
If water is going where it shouldn’t, drains are backing up, or something just doesn’t feel right, it’s better to get it checked sooner rather than later.
Â
At Priority Plumbing Services, we keep things simple. If we can repair it, we will. If something more is needed, we’ll walk you through it so you can make the call.
Â
When you need an emergency plumber, we’re here 24/7 to help.
