A flooded water heater, a failed sump pump in a storm, a sewer backup into tubs and sinks, or a burst pipe— when it’s an emergency, minutes matter. Gotta Guy Plumbing & Home Services responds fast across Wichita, KS and surrounding areas (Maize, Goddard, Andover, Derby, Haysville, Park City, Bel Aire, and more). We stabilize the situation, protect floors and finishes, and get your home safe again—then show you clear options before work begins.
Our on-call team prioritizes active leaks, mainline sewer backups, no-hot-water, flooded basements, and frozen/burst pipes. We arrive with floor protection, pumps, and diagnostic tools to stop the damage and make smart, lasting repairs.
Emergency Calls We Handle Most
Typical urgent calls we handle across Wichita, KS and surrounding areas—including 67203, 67207, 67208, 67212, 67205, and nearby ZIPs—include:
- Sewer backed up into tubs/sinks/floor drains: Multiple fixtures gurgling or backing up is a mainline sign. We clear the line and can add a camera inspection to pinpoint roots, offsets, or bellies.
- Water heater leaking / flooded: Tank leaking at base or ruptured T&P. We shut down safely, pump out if needed, and replace tanks—or install properly sized tankless when it’s right for your gas and usage.
- Sump pump failure / storm flooding: We test/replace pumps, add check valves, and recommend battery backups for power-loss events.
- No hot water: Failed elements, gas valve issues, ignition trouble, or tanks at end-of-life. We repair when smart and replace when necessary—same day whenever possible.
- Toilet leaking/overflowing: Failed wax ring, cracked tank, stuck fill, or clogged line. We stop the leak, fix the cause, and sanitize the area.
- Active leaks at valve stops & burst/frozen pipes: We isolate quickly, thaw safely when appropriate, repair neatly, and protect cabinets and walls.
- Critical fixture/valve failures: Shower valves that won’t shut off, failed PRVs, leaking main shutoffs—we stabilize and replace to code.
Don’t see your emergency? If water runs through it, we handle it—call and we’ll triage on the spot.

- No surprises: You approve the price before we begin; if conditions change, we pause and review with you.
Wichita Area Sewers & Winter: Good to Know
Many Wichita neighborhoods (Riverside, College Hill, Westlink) have mature trees and some older clay or cast-iron laterals. Roots, joint offsets, and low spots can create repeat clogs—especially after storms. A camera inspection removes guesswork; we’ll mark depths/locations and explain cleaning vs. spot repair vs. trenchless options.
Winter can bring frozen pipes. Exposed runs in garages, crawlspaces, or exterior walls are most at risk. We thaw safely where appropriate and repair burst sections to code, then recommend insulation/heat-tape or reroutes if needed.
Tip: If multiple fixtures gurgle or back up—especially the lowest drain—avoid running water and appliances and call immediately to prevent overflow.
Repair or Replace: Honest Guidance
We’ll tell you when a targeted repair is the best use of your dollars—and when a replacementwill save money and stress over time. You’ll always see pros/cons, timelines, and warranties before you decide.
