What to Have Ready When Calling Our Dispatcher
To help our coordinators evaluate your plumbing situation and dispatch the properly equipped mobile service van as quickly as possible, having the following basic details ready is helpful:
- Your Exact Service Address: Including any specific rural gate codes, acreage landmarks, or subdivision directions.
- Water Source Type: Whether your home connects to the City of Yelm municipal water grid or a private well head with a pressure tank.
- Specific Symptoms Observed: For example, complete lack of hot water, active leaking beneath a slab, slow draining throughout the home, or a rapidly cycling well pump.
- Main Water Shutoff Status: Let our dispatcher know whether you have already shut off your home's main water supply valve, or if water is currently flowing uncontrolled.
- Fixture Age & Fuel Type (if known): For water heaters, whether the unit is electric or gas, and whether it is a standard tank or tankless system.

Do not wait. Call our emergency dispatch line immediately for priority technician routing.
Critical Safety Steps While Waiting for Technician Arrival
If you are dealing with an urgent plumbing failure, taking these immediate precautions protects your home from escalating water damage and electrical hazards:
Shut Off the Water
Turn your home's main shutoff valve clockwise until fully closed. For rural well systems, turn off the dedicated double-pole circuit breaker labeled "Well Pump" at your main electrical breaker panel.
Turn Off Water Heater Breakers
If your electric water heater is leaking or you have shut off the main water supply, turn off the 30-amp water heater breaker. Heating elements that remain energized in an empty or drained tank will burn out in seconds.
Avoid Electrical Contact with Water
If standing water has accumulated near baseboards, floor electrical outlets, appliances, or extension cords, avoid the area entirely until power to those circuits is turned off at the main panel.
Relieve Line Pressure
Open an exterior garden hose bib or a lowest basement laundry sink faucet to relieve residual water pressure and drain remaining water safely away from interior living areas.
