Why Call Masters Plumbing Service First
4 Reasons Memphis Residents Call Us Before Anyone Else
Emergency plumbing calls are not the moment to gamble on an unknown contractor. Here's what you get every time you dial Masters Plumbing Service.
🪪
State-Licensed & Fully Insured
Every plumber we dispatch in TN holds an active state license, carries liability coverage, and is background-verified before entering your home.
🚐
Fastest Dispatch in Memphis
We run dedicated emergency shifts — no re-routing a daytime crew. When you call at 2 AM in Memphis, the on-duty emergency plumber is already in a stocked truck, not waking up from a sleep.
💲
Upfront Flat-Rate Pricing
No time-and-material billing that balloons once we're inside your walls. Our flat-rate schedule covers after-hours and holiday calls so you can say yes or no with full information.
🔧
Fully-Stocked Service Trucks
Our trucks stock over 400 SKUs of repair parts. A second trip for parts is a delay you don't need in an active emergency, which is why we invest in pre-stocking every van.
What We Handle
Every Emergency Plumbing Scenario We Resolve
From main line ruptures to gas-assisted water heater failures, our emergency crew in Memphis, TN handles the full spectrum of after-hours plumbing crises.
High Priority
Burst & Ruptured Pipe Response
Pipe failures in slab, wall, or crawl space locations require thermal cameras and acoustic detection. We trace the break precisely, open only what we must, and restore line pressure before leaving.
Immediate Response
Main Water Line Emergencies
A failed main shutoff or a street-to-meter line leak leaves you without water entirely or flooding a yard. We coordinate with your local utility for safe shutoff, then excavate minimally, repair the breach, and restore flow.
After-Hours
Sewer Backup & Overflow Mitigation
We contain the overflow area, clear the restriction, and provide a written scope report noting whether further lining or excavation repair is needed.
Critical
Water Heater Failure & Flooding
Our trucks carry both gas and electric water heater units in the most common residential capacities. If replacement is the right call, we have the unit, we have the permit knowledge, and we execute same night.
All Hours
Gas Line Leak Response
We do not guess at gas leaks. Every repair includes a manometer pressure test and documentation before the gas is restored — required by most jurisdictions and non-negotiable for your safety.
On-Call
Frozen Pipe Thaw & Damage Repair
If a freeze has already caused a crack or full rupture, we repair the section, wrap exposed pipe in foam insulation, and advise on permanent weather protection to prevent recurrence.
No runaround, no hold queues, no "we'll try to get someone out tomorrow." This is how a real emergency response operates.

What Customers Say
What Happens When You Trust Masters Plumbing Service in an Emergency
★★★★★
Woke up to my basement floor wet at 1 AM. Masters Plumbing Service answered on the first ring, walked me through shutting off the main while the tech drove over, and arrived in under 40 minutes. Fixed a failed copper elbow behind the wall and pressure-tested before leaving. Exactly what I needed.
— D. Morrison, Memphis
★★★★★
Holiday weekend, sewer line backed up into our downstairs bathroom. I braced for a "we can't come until Monday" answer. Instead I had a plumber at my door in 52 minutes. He jetted the main line clear and showed me the camera footage of a root intrusion we'll need to address permanently. No upsell pressure — just clear information.
— P. Nguyen, Memphis, TN
★★★★★
My water heater tank cracked and was draining onto the utility room floor. Called Masters Plumbing Service at 10 PM — they had a replacement 40-gallon gas unit on the truck. Tech drained the old tank, pulled the failed unit, installed the new heater with new flex connectors and expansion tank per current code, and lit the pilot. Hot water by midnight.

Common Questions
What People Ask Before They Call
Typical arrival in Memphis is 35–55 minutes. We track our technicians in real time and give you an accurate ETA via text the moment someone is dispatched. Weekend and overnight calls use the same on-duty emergency crew, not an on-call plumber who still needs to get dressed and drive to the shop.
Our pricing schedule includes an after-hours component, but it's built into the flat-rate quote you receive before any work starts. You decide whether to proceed with full knowledge of the cost — there's no bait-and-switch at billing.
If you have an active water leak, locate your main shutoff valve — usually at the meter, in the utility room, or under the street-side exterior wall — and turn it clockwise until it stops. If you smell gas, evacuate the structure and call your utility company before calling us. Our dispatcher will walk you through protective steps for your specific situation when you call.
All of our field technicians maintain current TN plumbing licenses, and the company carries general liability and workers' compensation insurance. You'll see our truck markings, company ID, and license credentials before we cross your threshold.
Some emergency repairs — main line replacements, water heater installations, gas line work — require a permit in most TN jurisdictions. We pull the required permits and schedule the inspection. The cost of permitting is included in or disclosed alongside your flat-rate quote.
We stand behind every emergency repair. Parts and labor warranties are documented on your receipt. We've built our reputation in Memphis, TN on not walking away from a job that doesn't hold — and we're not about to start now.
