Emergency Plumbing Help in Colorado

Burst pipes, sewage backups and leaking water heaters can't wait until next week. Here's what to do right now to limit the damage — and how to reach Zenith for urgent help.

When to Call an Emergency Plumber

  • A burst or frozen pipe
  • Water leaking through a ceiling or wall
  • Sewage backing up into tubs, toilets or floor drains
  • No water anywhere in the home
  • Water pooling around the base of the water heater

What to Do Before We Arrive

  1. Shut off your home's main water valve to stop the flow
  2. If the water heater is leaking, turn off its gas or power and close its cold-water inlet valve
  3. If sewage is backing up, stop using all drains, toilets and appliances
  4. Move valuables, rugs and electronics away from the water
  5. Call Zenith and describe exactly what you're seeing

Frequently Asked Questions

Where is my main water shutoff?

In many Colorado homes it's in the basement, crawl space or utility room where the water line enters the house — often near the water meter or water heater. It's worth finding it before you need it.

Can frozen pipes really burst?

Yes. Water expands as it freezes, which can split a pipe. If a pipe is frozen, open the faucet it feeds, apply gentle heat such as a hair dryer (never an open flame), and call us if water doesn't return.
