When to call us right away

Call straight away if water is spraying or pooling, sewage is coming up a drain, a water heater is leaking at the base, or the house has no water at all. Those problems damage floors, drywall and wiring while you wait. A few minutes on the phone can stop a small flood from becoming a large one.

Smell gas? Leave the building first and call Enbridge Gas at 1-800-767-1689 or 911 from outside. Do not use phones or switches inside the building. Call us after the gas utility says it is safe.

What to tell the dispatcher

Having these answers ready makes the call shorter and the visit better.

• Your street address and ZIP code, such as Midvale 84047 or Sandy 84070
• What is happening, in plain words, and where in the house
• When it started and whether it is getting worse
• Whether you have shut off the water and where the main valve is
• What type of water heater or fixture is involved, if you know
• A phone number we can reach you at during the visit

You do not need to know the cause. If you are not sure which of our services fits, just describe what you see and we will sort it out with you.

What to do until the plumber arrives

These steps limit damage. You do not need tools for any of them.

1. 1

   Stop the water

   Turn the main shutoff valve clockwise until it stops.

2. 2

   Stop the drains

   Do not flush, run the washer or use sinks if sewage is backing up.

3. 3

   Stay clear of electric

   Keep away from wet outlets and breakers. Flip the breaker only if it is dry.

4. 4

   Take photos

   Photograph the water and damage before you clean up.

For specific problems, our burst pipe repair and drain cleaning pages list more steps. Never use chemical drain cleaner in a full drain.

Where we are and when we answer

Our office is at 75 East Fort Union Blvd, Midvale, UT 84047. The line is answered 24/7. Plumbers are dispatched to our service area from here, so please call first rather than stopping by.

For leaks in the street or at the city meter, Midvale Public Works takes water emergencies 24/7 at 801-567-7235. Press 0 for the on-call employee. Everything past the meter, on your property, is the one we handle. See our service areas for the towns we cover.

Standards and sources

Before you hire any plumber, check the license on the Utah Division of Professional Licensing lookup. Plumbing work follows the International Plumbing Code (IPC), and Midvale's own water plan cites the IPC for fixtures in new construction.
