Gene's Plumbing handles emergency plumbing across Cape Girardeau and the surrounding area — licensed, insured and available for emergencies.
A plumbing emergency in Cape Girardeau is measured in gallons per minute, so the first call is about stopping it, not scheduling it. You get talked to your main shutoff while a truck is already moving.
Every house handles emergency plumbing a little differently depending on its age, and Cape Girardeau has plenty of both old and new. The fitting, the pipe material and the way the last plumber left it all change what the right repair is.
That is why the Cape Girardeau truck carries parts for more than one era of plumbing. The emergency plumbing job gets finished on the first visit wherever it can be, because a second trip costs you a day and costs us the trust.
How the job actually runs, start to finish.
A plumber asks the questions on the phone that narrow it down, so the right parts and the right machine are already on the truck when it arrives.
A gauge goes on the system, a camera goes down the line, or the meter gets checked with everything off — whichever actually answers the question. Nobody quotes a repair on a guess.
If there is a cheaper option that will actually hold, you hear about it. If the cheap option is a patch that fails in six months, you hear that too.
Before the truck goes you see it working — the drain running, the pressure holding, the pit cycling — not just a thumbs up from the driveway.

Real reviews from real service calls.
"Water heater let go on a Sunday morning and flooded half the basement. Had someone here inside two hours, new tank in by afternoon, and he hauled the old one off. Price was what he said on the phone."
"Our water smelled like sulfur since we moved in. They tested it instead of guessing, put in the right filtration, and the smell was gone the same day."
"Ran a new gas line for the range and the dryer. Pulled the permit, passed inspection first try, and cleaned up the drill shavings in the utility room."
