Frequently Asked Questions

How fast can you get here?
It depends on the day, but we prioritize true emergencies. Call us and we'll give you a real ETA.
Do you charge extra after hours?
We're upfront about pricing on the call. You'll know the cost before we come out.
What should I do while I wait?
If you smell gas, leave the home and call your gas utility. Otherwise, turn the thermostat off and keep the home above freezing with safe space heaters if needed — never use a stove or oven for heat.
