It’s every homeowner’s nightmare: waking up in the middle of the night to the sound of water rushing through your walls. That’s exactly what happened to a Graduate Hospital resident last weekend. A burst pipe in their upstairs bathroom caused a toilet overflow and water damage to the floor below. They called Point Breeze Plumbing Experts — and we were on-site within the hour.
Emergency plumbing calls like this are more common than you think, especially in neighborhoods like Grays Ferry and Southwest Philly where older plumbing systems are still in use. This time of year, fluctuating temperatures can cause pipes to expand and contract, increasing the risk of hidden cracks or pressure buildups.
Our licensed plumbers quickly shut off the water main, located the source of the rupture, and performed a high-pressure water line repair. We also replaced aging connections that were at risk of failure. Within hours, the client’s water was safely restored — without having to replace their entire floor or drywall system.
This situation is a reminder of why it’s essential to know who to call when disaster strikes. From clogged toilets to full pipe bursts, our team is on-call 24/7 to serve homeowners in Point Breeze, Graduate Hospital, and Grays Ferry. We offer affordable, fast plumbing service with a focus on damage prevention and long-term solutions.
We also educate our clients about warning signs — like inconsistent water pressure, bubbling paint near plumbing lines, or slowly draining fixtures — that may indicate bigger issues brewing behind the walls.
