How emergency plumbing works in Orange
When something bursts, backs up, or leaks in Orange, call us at any hour. We help you stop the damage on the phone, then send a plumber in a truck stocked for burst pipes, sewage backups, gas line problems, and failed water heaters.
Housing in Orange runs from pre-1940 craftsman and Victorian homes in the Old Towne historic district to newer hillside homes on the east side.
When to call for emergency plumbing
Call for emergency service when water is flooding the house, sewage is coming up in tubs, toilets, or floor drains, you smell gas and cannot find or shut off the source, a burst pipe keeps flowing after the main is closed, a water heater is leaking heavily, or the house has no water.

What customers say
★★★★★
I had a plumbing issue that needed to be repaired sooner than later. Miguel came out and knew how to fix it immediately. Miguel was professional, friendly and knowledgeable. I won't hesitate to call them in the future.
★★★★★
Great experience with Miguel and Steven! Fixed my stubborn kitchen sink clog. Very informative and respectful of my home in addressing the issue. Highly recommend!
★★★★★
I had an excellent experience with SoCal 1 Plumbing! Eliass came out to clear a blockage in my kitchen line by snaking it through the outside wall clean-out, and everything was done efficiently and with great care. He also installed new tubular drains under my kitchen sink to stop the leaks I’d been dealing with. The work was high-quality, and they even provided a 1-year warranty on parts and labor, which gave me peace of mind. Highly recommend their professional and reliable service!
