Plumbing emergencies we handle
Every service focuses on safety, convenience, and reducing the stress of plumbing emergencies.
Burst and leaking pipes
A burst pipe floods fast and damages floors, walls, and belongings by the minute. We stop the leak and repair the line, including hidden and slab leaks. See our burst pipe repair page for more.
Sewer backups and main line clogs
Sewage backing up into tubs or floor drains is a health hazard and a true emergency. We clear the main line and, when needed, camera it to find the cause. Learn the signs you need sewer repair.
No hot water or a leaking water heater
A failed or leaking water heater can’t wait, especially when it’s dumping water near the tank. We repair and replace tank and tankless units fast — see water heater repair and replacement.
Overflowing or non-stop running toilets
An overflowing toilet or one that won’t stop running can flood a bathroom quickly. We stop the water and fix the cause, day or night.
Gas line issues
If you smell gas, leave the house and call us from outside. We handle gas line repairs and installs safely and promptly. Reach us any hour at (520) 834-8400.
In a flooding emergency, shut off your water first.
Turn your main shut-off valve clockwise to stop the flow. For a gas water heater problem or a gas smell, leave the area and call from outside. Keep clear of any water near outlets or your electrical panel. Then call us — we’ll guide you through the rest.

WHY CHOOSE US
Why Tucson calls Al Coronado in an emergency
- We answer 24/7, and we mean it. Lots of companies advertise emergency service; we actually pick up at night, on weekends, and on holidays. Since 1981, being there in the crisis is how we’ve earned 2,600+ reviews.
- No after-hours upcharge. This is the big one: we charge the same flat rate whether it’s noon Tuesday or midnight Saturday. You’re already dealing with an emergency — the price shouldn’t be one too.
- Upfront flat-rate pricing. Even under pressure, you get the price before we start. We don’t use a stressful moment to pad a bill, and we back our work with up to a 5-year workmanship guarantee.
- Licensed, local, and fast. Our trucks are stocked, our plumbers are licensed, and we cover all of Tucson and Pima County — so help reaches you quickly.
Know when to call for emergency service
Spotting early warning signs can prevent small problems from turning into major water damage.
Standing water
Water where it shouldn’t be demands immediate attention. Pooling around your water heater, seeping through ceiling drywall, or bubbling up through floor drains all signal serious problems developing.
Unusual odors
Your nose knows trouble too. Sewage smells inside mean waste isn’t leaving properly. Gas odors near water heaters or furnaces require immediate evacuation and professional help.
Strange noises
Strange sounds tell important stories. Gurgling from multiple drains suggests main line blockage. Banging pipes might mean dangerous pressure building. Hissing near appliances could indicate gas leaks.
Total fixture failure
Complete fixture failure needs quick action. No water pressure throughout your house, toilets that won’t stop overflowing, or total drainage stoppage can’t wait until Monday. These problems typically get worse fast without professional intervention.
