Hillsboro Emergency Plumber
Unfortunately, plumbing problems don’t always happen during normal business hours. So, when you need help at night or the weekend, you can rely on Pilot Plumbing and Drain. We’re family-owned and operated, and our plumbers are licensed, insured, and highly trained. They can fix any plumbing problem you have at any time- from hot water heater repair to pipe replacement, and everything in between.
Hot Water Tank Replacement Service
We depend on our water heaters for instant hot water daily. But, even the most well-maintained water heater will eventually fail. Here are some red flags that indicate your water heater is ready for retirement.
- Age of the Water Heater: Most water heaters have a 10-15 year lifespan. If your water heater is nearing or has surpassed this age range, it may be time to consider a replacement, even if it appears functioning properly.
- Rusty or Discolored Water: If you notice rust or sediment in your hot water, it could indicate that the tank is corroding from the inside. Rusty water often indicates that the tank’s inner lining is deteriorating, leading to leaks and, ultimately, the need for a new water heater.
- Unusual Noises: As wAs water heaters age, sediment can build up on the bottom of the tank. When sediment hardens, it causes banging or rumbling noises, which can shorten its lifespan.
- Leaks: If you see water pooling around the base of your water heater, it could indicate a leak or a failing pressure relief valve. If the tank has cracked, it must be replaced immediately to avoid flooding.
Our water heater maintenance service can prevent minor issues from escalating and ensure your system lasts as long as possible.

Expert Clogged Drain Repair in Hillsboro, OR
Clogged drains are one of the most common plumbing problems. When you have a stubborn clog, you might use a chemical drain cleaner or home remedy. These methods can provide temporary relief, but in many cases, the clog returns. Hiring a professional drain cleaning company is the safest, most effective way to remove clogs and leave pipes free-flowing. We have advanced tools like hydrojetting machines and augers that get deep into the system to prevent clogs from returning.

When To Call an Emergency Plumber
It can be difficult to know when a plumbing problem requires immediate attention and when it’s safe to wait for an appointment. Here are the most common situations when you should call for help now.
- Burst Pipe: If a pipe bursts in your home, it can cause significant water damage very quickly. This plumbing emergency requires immediate attention to prevent further damage to your property and belongings.
- Sewage Backup: Sewage backing up in the house is a serious health hazard because it contains harmful bacteria and pathogens that could make your family sick.
- Major Leaks: A major leak, such as water pouring from the ceiling or walls, can cause extensive damage to your home’s structure and possessions. Immediate repair is necessary to stop the water flow and mitigate damage.
- No Water Pressure: If you suddenly lose water pressure throughout the house, and it’s not an issue with the supplier, it could be a blockage in the main water line.
