When You Need a Plumber Right Now

A plumbing emergency doesn’t wait for business hours. Whether it’s a burst pipe on a January night, a sewage backup on a Sunday morning, or a water heater failure right before family arrives — these situations need fast, reliable help. Bluffs Plumbing Co. has been serving Scarborough homeowners around the clock because we know that waiting until Monday isn’t always an option.

Our emergency line connects you directly to a dispatcher who can route a licensed plumber to your home quickly. No call centres, no runaround.

What to Expect

  1. Call us — Describe the situation. We’ll ask a few quick questions to understand the urgency and give you an honest ETA.
  2. Free estimate — Before any work begins, your plumber will assess the problem and walk you through what’s needed and what it will cost.
  3. We do the work — Our plumber handles the repair using parts stocked on the truck. Most emergency jobs are resolved in a single visit.
  4. Walkthrough — Once the work is complete, we’ll show you exactly what was done, answer your questions, and make sure you’re satisfied before we leave.

The Most Common Plumbing Emergencies We See

Burst and Frozen Pipes Scarborough winters are tough on older pipes, especially in unheated crawl spaces and exterior walls. When a pipe bursts, water can spread through walls and subfloors within minutes. Our plumbers carry the materials to cut out damaged sections and restore water service the same night.

Sewage Backups A sewage backup is a health hazard and one of the most stressful plumbing events a homeowner can face. The cause is often a blockage in the main drain line — sometimes caused by tree roots, grease buildup, or a collapsed section of pipe. Bluffs Plumbing Co. carries professional-grade drain snakes and hydro-jetting equipment to clear the blockage and get your drains flowing again.

Flooding and Water Damage Prevention Scarborough sits in a part of Toronto that’s seen significant basement flooding during heavy rainfall events. If your sump pump has failed during a storm, or if a supply line has let go behind a washing machine or under a sink, every minute of delay increases the damage. We prioritize active flooding calls and can help you stop the water fast.

Don’t wait — call Bluffs Plumbing Co. the moment a plumbing emergency happens. We’d rather hear from you early than arrive to a bigger problem.

"Had a burst pipe on a Sunday morning — water everywhere. Dave and his crew were here within 40 minutes. They fixed the pipe, cleaned up the mess, and had everything back to normal by noon. Can't say enough good things about how professional they were."
