When it can't wait
Is it an emergency?
Not every drip is a crisis — but some are. Answer two questions and we'll tell you if you should call us right now, wait for business hours, or try something yourself first.
- Honest triage — we'll tell you when it's not urgent
- No dispatch fee for confirmed emergencies under 10 miles
- Answered by a real person, not a call center
Six services, one standard of work.
Whether it's a dripping faucet or a full repipe, every job gets the same approach: diagnose first, quote in writing, clean up after.

Our basement flooded on a Sunday night. Davis & Sons had someone here within thirty minutes. They fixed the issue, cleaned up, and charged us exactly what they quoted. This is who you want in an emergency.
Straight answers
The questions everyone asks.
Thirty-seven years of phone calls, condensed. If yours isn't here, call — Diane picks up.
Do you charge just to come out?
Emergency dispatch starts at $185 and includes the diagnostic — you're not paying twice. No trip fee within 15 miles of our Preston Highway warehouse. For scheduled work, estimates are free.
Are you actually available at 2 a.m.?
Yes. Diane runs dispatch and a real person answers every call, nights and holidays included. Average emergency response inside the 264 loop is 45 minutes.
Will you quote a price before you start?
Always. We diagnose first, then hand you a written quote before any work begins. The number on the quote is the number on the invoice — read our reviews; it's the thing people mention most.
Are your plumbers licensed and insured?
Kentucky Master Plumber license #MP-4821, bonded to $2M, BBB A+ rated. Every tech on your property is background-checked and W-2 — no day-labor subs on residential calls.
What's your warranty?
One year on workmanship across the board, and 10-year parts warranties on water heater installs. If something we fixed fails, we come back and make it right — no arguing.
Should I shut off my water before you arrive?
If water is actively flowing where it shouldn't — yes. Your main shutoff is usually at the front of the basement or near the meter. Call us and we'll walk you through it while the truck is on the way.

Water doesn't wait.
Water doesn't wait.
Neither do we.
One call reaches a dispatcher who knows the trucks, the techs, and probably your neighborhood.
