Why Choose Homewerx?

Every Minute Costs Money

A burst pipe releases 4-8 gallons per minute. In 30 minutes, that's 120-240 gallons soaking into floors, walls, and ceilings. Fast response dramatically reduces water damage restoration costs.

Know Your Main Shutoff Now

The most important thing in a plumbing emergency is stopping the water. If you don't know where your main shutoff valve is — or it's corroded shut — the damage multiplies while you search.

Sewer Backups Are Health Hazards

Raw sewage backing into your home creates Category 3 water damage — the most hazardous classification. Professional cleanup isn't optional; it's a health necessity requiring immediate response.

Gas Leaks Require Immediate Action

If you smell gas, evacuate immediately and call from outside. Gas line leaks can cause explosions. We respond to gas emergencies with the urgency they demand and coordinate with SDG&E.

Our Process

01

Emergency Dispatch

Call our 24/7 line and speak to a live person — not a voicemail. We dispatch a technician immediately with the equipment needed for your specific emergency.

02

Water Mitigation

First priority is stopping the water. We locate and close the appropriate shutoff, then assess the scope of the leak or break while minimizing ongoing damage.

03

Diagnosis

Once the emergency is stabilized, we identify the root cause — burst pipe, failed valve, sewer blockage, water heater failure — so the repair addresses the actual problem.

04

Emergency Repair

We carry common repair parts on every truck. Most emergency repairs are completed on the first visit: burst pipe patches, valve replacements, water heater shutdowns, drain clearing.

05

Damage Documentation

We photograph all damage and provide detailed documentation for your insurance claim. Our reports include the cause, scope of damage, and repair performed.

06

Follow-Up Assessment

After the emergency repair, we schedule a follow-up to assess whether additional work is needed — full repiping, sewer lateral replacement, or water heater installation.
