In these days I appreciate a company that answers the phone and communicates when they're running behind schedule for an appt. George came out, assessed what needed to be done, reasonable price agreed upon, and returned same day with his team to repair two gas fuel line leaks. They put in the extra time to get it done properly, so my gas could be turned back on by PGW. Continued blessings. Thank you

Expert Emergency Plumbing Service in Philadelphia, PA
When a pipe bursts, a drain backs up, or a water heater fails, Philadelphia homeowners need a plumber who can act fast. Drain State Plumbing & Drain Cleaning handles emergency plumbing service across Philadelphia, PA, covering burst pipes, sewer backups, active leaks, failed water heaters, and sudden pressure loss. Philadelphia's housing stock creates real urgency. Many row homes across the city carry aging cast iron drain stacks, galvanized supply lines, and shared sewer laterals. A failure in one spot can spread quickly behind walls, under floors, or into a finished basement. Philadelphia's freeze-thaw winters add extra stress to pipes that are already working hard. When something goes wrong, the first step is shutting off the main water valve, usually found in the basement near the front wall of a row home. After that, call us. We diagnose the problem on arrival, explain what we found, and get to work. Do not wait for a small leak to become a flooded room.
