A burst pipe, a sewer backup, or no water at all can't wait until morning. In Colton's older homes near Downtown and the La Cadena corridor, galvanized pipes fail without much warning. Summer heat stresses water heaters and expands the clay soil under slabs, cracking lines that were fine last year. Winter cold snaps have burst exterior pipes in Grandview Heights homes that weren't built with insulation in mind. If you smell gas, see water pooling, or hear your toilet gurgling, don't wait it out. Small leaks turn into flooded floors fast, and a cracked slab line only gets more expensive the longer it runs. Quick action also protects you from mold and structural damage down the road.[1]
