Hemet Water and Sewer Emergency Contacts
A leak inside a property, a damaged private service line, and a problem in a public street may require different contacts. Use the visible location and immediate safety risk to decide where to start.

Private-property problem
When a plumbing request may be appropriate
A problem involving an indoor fixture, appliance connection, private building drain, water heater, wall or slab piping, or the private side of a service line may require a plumbing provider rather than a city crew.
Property ownership and utility boundaries vary. A responding provider or utility may need to inspect before responsibility is clear.
Problem guides
Prepare useful information before calling
Main line leak signs
Meter movement, wet soil, low pressure, and service-line clues.
Sewer backup
Stop using affected drains and avoid wastewater contact.
