Burst pipes, leaks and backups

Water damage spreads fast. A burst supply line can release hundreds of litres an hour, and a sewer backup creates a health hazard as well as a mess. Bremner's has handled urgent plumbing calls in Halifax for over a century, and our team is ready to stop the damage and make a lasting repair.

  • Burst or frozen pipes
  • Major active leaks
  • Sewer and drain backups
  • Failed water heaters leaking

Is it an emergency?

What counts as a plumbing emergency

Call immediately if water is actively leaking and you cannot stop it, if sewage is coming up through a drain, if you have no water at all, or if a pipe has frozen or split. A dripping tap or a single slow drain can usually wait for regular business hours.

While you wait, shut off the main water valve if it is safe to do so, turn off power to affected areas if water is near electrical, and move valuables away from the water.

How it works

Our 24/7 answering service

Outside business hours, your call to (902) 453-4800 goes to our answering service. They take your name, address and a description of the problem and pass it straight to the on-call plumber, who will call you back to confirm details and arrange to come out. During business hours, Monday to Friday 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, our office dispatches a crew directly.
