When It Can't Wait
Fast Emergency Drain Response for Denver Homeowners
A backed-up drain after hours isn’t an inconvenience you schedule around — it’s a plumbing emergency. Raw sewage in a bathtub, a toilet that won’t stop overflowing, or a basement floor drain backing up can cause serious water damage and health hazards if left unaddressed. Done’s licensed plumbers are available around the clock to clear the blockage, stop the damage, and get your home back to normal. See all of our drain cleaning services for standard and urgent situations.
Since 1999, Denver homeowners have called us first when drains go wrong at the worst possible time. We answer the phone every hour of every day, we give you a real price before we start, and we don’t charge you extra just because it’s 2 a.m. on a Sunday. One call is all it takes.
- True 24/7 Availability Done's emergency line is staffed around the clock — nights, weekends, and holidays. When you call 833-539-9153, a real person answers and dispatches a licensed plumber to your home.
- Fast Response Times We prioritize emergency drain calls across the Denver metro. Our goal is to get a plumber to your door quickly so you can stop worrying and start recovering.
- Licensed & Background-Checked Every technician who comes to your home is a licensed plumber who has passed a background check. You can open the door with confidence, any hour of the day.
Emergency Situations
Drain Emergencies We Handle Right Away
These four situations call for immediate help — don't wait to see if they resolve on their own.
-
Sewage Backing Up Into the Home
If raw sewage is coming up through a tub, floor drain, or toilet, your main sewer line is almost certainly blocked. This is a health emergency. Stop using all water in the home and call Done immediately.
-
Overflowing Toilet
A toilet that overflows and won't clear — especially when other drains in the home are also slow — signals a blockage deeper than the fixture itself. Continued use can spread contaminated water throughout your home.
-
Basement or Floor Drain Backup
Floor drains are the lowest point in your plumbing system, so they're often the first to show when the main line is blocked. Water or sewage coming up through a basement floor drain needs immediate attention.
-
Complete Drain Stoppage
When nothing drains at all — sinks, tubs, and toilets all stopped at once — the blockage is likely in the main sewer line. Store-bought drain chemicals won't fix this and can make the plumber's job harder.
Emergency Services
What Done Does When You Call After Hours
Our emergency drain response is fast and thorough — we don't just clear the clog, we make sure your home is safe before we leave.
- Main Line Snaking Our plumbers arrive with professional-grade drain snakes to cut through and clear blockages in your main sewer line — the kind of equipment that actually reaches the problem, not the 20-foot consumer versions.
- Hydrojetting for Stubborn Blockages When a snake isn't enough — heavy grease buildup, dense root intrusions, or compacted debris — we can deploy high-pressure hydrojetting to fully clear the line rather than just punch through the clog.
- Camera Inspection After Clearing Once the drain is flowing, we can run a camera to confirm the line is fully clear and to check for underlying damage that caused the backup. Knowing why it happened helps prevent the next emergency.
- Safety Assessment If sewage has entered your living space, we'll let you know what areas may need sanitizing or drying before they're safe to use again. We can also advise on next steps and connect you with restoration resources if needed.

★★★★★
I've been using this company for years now, both for my own home and for a rental property, for everything from basic leaks to a new underground sewer line. They're always very prompt and professional, and provide options without being pushy. Today's service guy, Robby, asked how much technical detail I wanted to know, and explained the problem and repair options at my level.
★★★★★
Charles came to my home today with a great attitude he was calm effective and a joy to be around. He is wonderful and descriptive in a way I can understand

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you charge extra for emergency or after-hours drain service?
Done does not add a hidden surcharge just because it’s late at night or a weekend. We give you an upfront price before we start, and that’s what you pay. Call 833-539-9153 any time — there’s no penalty for needing us after business hours.
Should I use drain cleaner or a store-bought snake while I wait?
We recommend against chemical drain cleaners for a main line backup. They rarely reach the actual blockage and can create caustic conditions that are hazardous for our plumbers when they arrive. If you have a store-bought plunger, you can try it on an individual fixture, but for a main line issue the best thing to do is stop using water in the home and call us.
How fast can someone get to my home?
Response times vary depending on how many calls we have in queue and your location within the Denver metro, but we prioritize emergency drain calls. When you call, our dispatcher will give you an honest estimated arrival window. We serve the full Denver metro area and have been doing so since 1999.
What if the backup keeps happening?
A recurring backup usually means there’s an underlying problem — tree roots, a damaged pipe, or a section of line that’s partially collapsed. After clearing the immediate blockage, we can run a camera inspection to find out why it keeps happening and give you a repair plan that actually solves the problem long-term.
