When a pipe bursts at 2am, when the basement is flooding, when sewage backs up the night before guests arrive — you need a real plumber on the phone, not a call-center triage line. We answer 24/7 with a dispatcher who knows our techs and your area. Most Port Moody emergency calls are met on-site within 60–90 minutes from our Coquitlam base.
Our emergency plumbing team is dispatched in marked vans stocked for first-visit fix on the most common Port Moody emergencies: burst PEX or copper, leaking water heaters, failed sump pumps, sewer backups, slab leaks, and frozen-pipe ruptures (Heritage Mountain elevation freezes most years). We carry isolating gear, pipe-repair stock, replacement sump pumps, and full sewer-cleaning rigs.
Same rates 24/7 — no overtime, no weekend, no holiday surcharges. Our 2am rate is the same as our Tuesday-afternoon rate, in writing. 1-hour callback guaranteed on every emergency request — phone or web form, day or night.
What's Included
24/7 dispatch with real humans
No call-center triage. Our dispatcher takes your address, your problem, and gets a tech rolling. Most Port Moody addresses 10–20 minutes from Coquitlam dispatch.
Burst pipe + leak isolation
We carry full repair stock — PEX, copper, brass fittings, push-to-connect emergency couplings. We isolate the leak first (shut off the right valve), then repair.
Sewer backup + immediate clearing
Sewer-cleaning rigs (cable + hydro-jetting) and sewer cameras on standby vans. We clear the line, then diagnose root cause (root intrusion, grease, broken pipe).
Sump pump failure response
Pleasantside, Ioco, and lower Glenayre flood when sumps fail in heavy rain. We carry replacement primary pumps, battery-backup pumps, and float switches.
Water heater failures
Tank ruptures, no hot water, gas leak symptoms, T&P relief valve discharge. Diagnostic on-site, replacement same-day if needed.
Insurance coordination
We document the failure, take photos, and provide a written cause-of-loss report your home insurer needs. Many Port Moody clients get the visit covered under their policy.
Common Port Moody Plumbing Emergencies — by Neighborhood
Heritage Mountain elevation freezes pipes. Heritage Mountain and Heritage Woods at 200m+ get cold snaps below -10 °C most winters — enough to rupture exterior hose bibs, garage water lines, and any plumbing in unconditioned attic space. We respond with thaw equipment (induction thawer, heat trace) and emergency repairs. Prevention: heat trace + insulation, which we install on demand.
Glenayre and College Park have aging galvanized supply. 1960s–80s homes commonly run on original galvanized that's now 40–60 years old. We see ruptures at fittings, mostly at the city stop or behind drywall. Emergency response: isolate, replace the failed section in PEX or copper, recommend full re-pipe within 6 months.
Pleasantside, Ioco, and lower Heritage Mountain flood when sumps fail. Heavy fall and winter rain plus high water table = sump pump duty cycle through the roof. When the pump or float fails, basements take on water within hours. We carry replacement pumps and can be there within 90 minutes most calls.
Suter Brook, Newport Village, and Inlet Centre condo emergencies usually involve unit-to-unit leaks (failed flex line, dishwasher hose, washer hose, water heater). We respond fast, document for strata insurance, and coordinate with the building's emergency contact.

What Port Moody Homeowners Say
“Pipe burst on a Saturday night in our Newport Village townhouse. Called at 9pm — tech was here in 45 minutes. Stopped the flood, replaced the section overnight, and helped us file the strata insurance paperwork. Total lifesaver.”
“1968 Glenayre rancher — original galvanized was failing. They re-piped the whole house in PEX over three days, only opened drywall where they had to, and patched everything before leaving. Pressure is back to normal everywhere.”
“Sewer line backed up the day before guests arrived. They cleared it with hydro-jetting in under an hour and ran a camera to find the root intrusion at the property line. Booked the spot repair the next week. Saved Christmas.”
