Overview
What counts as a real plumbing emergency
When you have a plumbing emergency, you shouldn't have to wait for assistance. At Mark Johnson & Sons Plumbing, we offer 24-hour emergency services to help you with everything from backed-up drains to burst pipes. We respond to calls quickly, even on weekends and holidays — a real person always answers, never a machine.
If your plumbing situation can wait for regular business hours — like a slow drip or a running toilet — we'll schedule an appointment. But you can count on us to arrive on the scene fast for any true emergency. We'll treat your home with respect, and our upfront flat-rate pricing means no surprises on the bill.
Why homeowners across North Louisiana call us first
- Live answering 24/7 — a real person, never a machine
- Same-day response — including nights, weekends & holidays
- Upfront flat-rate pricing before any work begins
- Fully stocked trucks for one-trip repairs
Call us right away for
- Burst pipe — shut the water off at the main if you can, then call. Every hour matters for drywall and flooring damage
- Sewage backing up — into a tub, shower, or floor drain. Health hazard, escalates fast
- Gas smell — anywhere near a stove or water heater. Leave the house, shut off the meter if safe, then call
- Water heater leaking at base — actively draining is different from condensation. Call now
- Main water line break — wet spot in yard, water bill spike, no pressure in the house
What you'll pay
Emergency after-hours service adds a dispatch surcharge on top of the normal flat-rate repair price. The repair itself is quoted the same way it would be during business hours — no emergency tax on the actual work. Members of the Classic Membership get priority dispatch plus 15% off the repair cost.
Before we get there
Three things that can save you money while we're en route. One — shut the water off at the main valve (usually near the front of the house or where the supply comes in). Two — if sewage is backing up, stop using any drain or fixture. Three — move belongings off the floor near the affected area. Beyond that, don't try to snake or patch anything; let us diagnose before anything gets made worse.

The Process
What Happens When You Call After Hours

On the truck
Professional tools, parts, and diagnostics — every call.
Real human answers
No phone tree, no offshore answering service. A local dispatcher picks up 24/7, asks a few triage questions, and either dispatches a truck or gives honest guidance if it can wait.
Live ETA
You get a real response window and a text when the tech is on the way. Typical response is 60 to 90 minutes across the North Louisiana service area.
Contain the problem first
Tech's first job on-site is stopping the damage — shut valves, cap broken lines, set up containment. Diagnosis and quoting comes after the bleeding stops.
Quote before the repair
Even on an emergency, the price is flat-rate and given before work. You approve before we fix. No 'figure it out later' billing.
Full fix or bridge fix
If we can finish the full repair that night, we do. If the full fix needs daylight or a part, we make a solid temporary fix and schedule the permanent one first thing in the morning.
Pricing
How Emergency Plumbing Pricing Works
Emergency pricing = normal repair cost + after-hours surcharge. No emergency tax on the repair itself.
Flat rate, quoted before we start
You get the full price for the job up front — not an hourly meter you watch climb. You approve it before a tool comes out of the truck.
The quote is the price
It doesn't move once work begins. If something unexpected turns up behind a wall or under a slab, we stop and talk it through with you before going further.
