When to Call for Emergency Drain Service

Not every slow drain is an emergency, but some situations shouldn't wait. Here's how to tell the difference.

By Niagara Drain Team · · Emergencies

Situations that usually need immediate help

  • Sewage or wastewater coming into your home
  • A backup that's spreading or getting worse
  • An overflowing toilet or fixture you can't stop
  • No working toilet in the home
  • Water from a drain approaching electrical equipment

Situations that can often wait

  • A single slow sink that still drains
  • A minor clog in a second bathroom
  • Occasional gurgling without backups

If you're unsure, call

It's not always obvious how serious a drain problem is. Describing what you're seeing over the phone can help you decide. Niagara Drain is available 24 hours at (289) 270-6803.

What to do while you wait

Stop using water in the home, keep people and pets away from any wastewater, and move belongings away from affected areas if it's safe.
