Here are some of the typical emergency plumbing issues we can help you with.
Flooding
Nothing is worse than a basement flood (especially when it’s water from the drain). Sewage backups and burst pipes can cause terrible flooding. If you don’t fix it ASAP, you risk water damage to the rest of your home or building. Whatever the cause of flooding, we can find it and fix it as quickly as possible.
Frozen Pipes
Pipes burst or crack and leak when water freezes inside of them, which can cause flooding and water damage if something isn’t done about it right away. Our professional plumbers can help you avoid that disaster with pipe repair and replacement.
Clogged Drains and Pipe Blockages
Is the water in the shower drain or sink moving slower than ever–or worse, not at all? We can make those nasty clogs and blockages disappear with a camera inspection to find the problem and a tool kit full of solutions, like sewer line and drain cleaning services, hydrojetting, as well as repairs and replacements.
Running Toilets Or Faucets
Got a toilet that won’t stop running or a faucet that won’t stop dripping? Not only is it annoying, but it’s also a waste of water and drives your bills through the roof. We can help you prevent all of that by fixing any leaky faucet or running toilet and even doing installations.
Defective Hot Water Tank
Getting nothing but ice-cold water from the tap? It could be a broken water tank. Our technicians are skilled in solving these problems and can have your taps running hot again in no time!
Pipe Leaks
Leaking pipes are the most common plumbing issue our emergency plumber in Vaughan face. Pipes typically leak from the joint area (unless they’re completely corroded). If you don't catch a leak quickly, it can cause even more damage than a mess or puddle. Luckily, we can find even the most low-key leaks and repair them so your pipes run as good as new.
Burst, Damaged Pipes
Again, pipe bursts are usually caused by frozen water, but other types of damage that cause leaks and bursts include tree roots, shifting ground, solid blockages, and even age. Our team can repair and replace a damaged or burst pipe to get it back in working order in no time.
Broken Sump Pump
If your drains aren’t clearing at all, it may not be a blockage. It could be a broken sump pump, which causes sewer backups and floods. We can determine if this is the issue and repair or replace the sump pump so your drains can get back to normal.
Malfunctioning Water Filtration System
If your drains aren’t clearing at all, it may not be a blockage. It could be a broken sump pump, which causes sewer backups and floods. We can determine if this is the issue and repair or replace the sump pump so your drains can get back to normal.

Emergency Plumbing Across All of Vaughan
Vaughan is one of the fastest-growing cities in Ontario, and with that growth comes a wide range of plumbing challenges. From the older homes in Woodbridge with aging copper pipes, to the new construction subdivisions in Kleinburg and Maple with sump pumps that need servicing, to the townhome developments in Concord and Thornhill — every neighbourhood in Vaughan has its own plumbing profile. We know them all.
Plumbing Nerds responds to emergency calls across every Vaughan community:
- Woodbridge — Older homes on Islington Ave and Highway 7 corridors frequently deal with cast iron drain deterioration, root intrusion in sewer lines, and failing water heaters that are well past their lifespan. We handle all of it.
- Maple — Newer subdivisions off Keele Street and Major Mackenzie Drive often call us for sump pump failures, especially during spring thaw and heavy rain events when basement flooding risk spikes.
- Kleinburg — Estate homes in Kleinburg run on larger-diameter pipes and often have complex systems. We arrive prepared for any configuration.
- Concord — High-density residential and mixed-use buildings along Jane Street and Dufferin Street require fast response. We dispatch from Vaughan so we are never far away.
- Thornhill — Older Thornhill homes near Clark Avenue and Yonge Street frequently experience main drain blockages and hot water system issues. We bring camera inspection equipment on every emergency call.
If you are in any part of Vaughan and facing a plumbing emergency, call 647-560-5737 now. We are available Monday to Friday 7am to 10pm and weekends 8am to 6pm.
What Happens When You Call Plumbing Nerds in Vaughan
We know that when you are dealing with a plumbing emergency, the last thing you want is to be bounced between automated menus or given a vague arrival window. Here is exactly what happens when you call us:
Step 1 — You speak to a real person immediately. No hold music, no press-1-for-this. Our team answers your call, listens to what is happening, and gives you honest guidance on what to do right now — including whether to shut off your main water supply.
Step 2 — We dispatch the nearest available licensed plumber. Our team operates out of Vaughan, which means we are not driving in from the other side of the GTA. We come to you.
Step 3 — We diagnose before we quote. Every emergency call includes a $96 diagnostic fee. Before any repair work begins, we give you a clear upfront quote. No surprise invoices.
Step 4 — We fix it right the first time. Our plumbers carry common parts on every truck so the most frequent emergency repairs — burst pipes, clogged drains, sump pump failures, water heater issues — are resolved in a single visit whenever possible.
All Plumbing Nerds technicians are Red Seal certified plumbers licensed under the Ontario College of Trades. We carry full WSIB coverage and liability insurance on every job in Vaughan.
Vaughan Emergency Plumbing — Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Are you actually available evenings and weekends, or will I get voicemail?
You will reach a person. During our hours — Monday to Friday until 10:00 PM, Saturday and Sunday 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM — we answer calls and dispatch. We're honest that we're not a midnight service, but within those hours, you won't sit on hold or get routed to an answering service.
How fast can you get to my home in Vaughan?
Because we're based at 160 Applewood Crescent in Concord, most Vaughan locations are 10–25 minutes from our office. Response time varies by how many calls are active, but we prioritize active flooding and sewage backup situations above routine calls.
Do you charge extra for evening or weekend calls?
We charge a service call fee for all visits, and our labour rates are transparent. We'll tell you the full cost before we begin any work — no surprise invoices after the fact.
My basement has sewage backup. Is it safe to stay in the house?
Sewage contains harmful bacteria and pathogens. Avoid contact with the affected area, keep children and pets away, and do not use any plumbing in the home. Turn off the HVAC system if it has floor vents near the affected area to prevent odour and contamination spread. Call us immediately — this is one situation where response time directly affects your family's health.
Can you also help with water damage cleanup after the plumbing is fixed?
Water damage remediation — drywall removal, drying, mould prevention — is typically handled by a restoration contractor, not a plumber. We'll fix the source of the problem and can recommend local restoration services we trust. Document everything with photos before any cleanup begins for your insurance claim.
My pipes froze overnight. What should I do before you arrive?
Do not use an open flame to thaw frozen pipes — this is a fire hazard and can crack pipes that are already under thermal stress. If you know which pipe is frozen and it's accessible, a hair dryer on low heat held at a safe distance is reasonable. Otherwise, shut off the main water supply to reduce pressure on the frozen section, and call us. We have the right equipment to thaw safely and assess whether any sections have already split.
