Water · Residential
Residential plumbing, handled like it's our own house.
From a dripping faucet in Cranston to a whole-home repipe in Newport: licensed plumbers, stocked vans, and a flat price before we start.
Most plumbing problems announce themselves at the worst possible moment, a supply line lets go on a Sunday, a water heater quits during the first cold snap. SOS Plumbing & Heating exists for exactly those moments. Our residential plumbers cover the entire state from our West Warwick shop, with same-day service on most calls and a live person on the phone 24/7.
Water stains on a ceiling, a spinning meter, the smell of damp behind a wall. We trace leaks to the source and fix the cause, not just the symptom. That includes pinhole leaks in aging copper, failed compression fittings, slab leaks and the galvanized-pipe corrosion common in Rhode Island homes built before the 1960s.
Faucets, toilets, garbage disposals, shower valves, supplied by us or by you. Every install is pressure-tested and cleaned up before we leave, and workmanship is guaranteed in writing.
Whatever the job, the process is the same: diagnose, quote a flat price, get your approval, fix it right. That's why Rhode Islanders rate SOS 4.8 stars across 300+ Google reviews.

How a rescue works
No phone tree, no callback queue. Describe the problem and we dispatch the nearest tech, same-day for most calls, immediately for emergencies.
The tech diagnoses on site, walks you through options, and quotes flat pricing before any work begins. You approve, or you don't. No surprises on the invoice.
Stocked vans mean most repairs finish in one visit. We protect floors, wear boot covers, and leave the space cleaner than we found it.
Workmanship is guaranteed and every tech is licensed and insured in Rhode Island. If something isn't right, we come back. That's the whole policy.
No phone tag
Four fields, no account, no spam, a dispatcher reads it and calls you back. Emergency? Skip the form: (401) 601-5040 is answered 24/7.
Signals received
"We called SOS for a leaky fixture, and they were quick to respond. Came right out and replaced gaskets instead of the whole fixture. Another plumber quoted over $1000 before they saw what we needed… we will call them again if we ever need anything."
"Excellent crew!! Jose and Matt came early in the timeframe the office provided and were professional and friendly the entire time, explaining everything along the way… this company is HONEST and upfront about pricing. The job was less entailed than originally thought, so my final cost was reduced dramatically."
"I had a saddle valve fail at 10pm and couldn't get the drip to stop at the leak. I got an instant and informative call back… Good advice, kind people, solid work and reasonable prices. This is a great company, highly recommended."

Good questions
We quote flat, upfront pricing after diagnosing the job on site. You approve the exact number before work begins. No hourly meter running, no surprise line items on the invoice.
Yes. No job is too small, running toilets, dripping faucets and slow drains are half of what we do, and fixing them early prevents the expensive version later.
Usually, yes. Our vans stock common tank sizes and parts, so most standard water heater replacements happen the day you call. Tankless conversions are typically scheduled within a few days.
Regularly. Pre-1960s Rhode Island homes often still carry galvanized supply lines that narrow and rust from the inside. We replace them with copper or PEX, usually in a day or two, with walls opened as little as possible.
Gladly, and it costs you nothing to ask when we're already diagnosing. Camera footage, pressure readings and photos come standard, so you can compare like for like.
Yes, and you hear the number on the phone before anyone rolls. Dispatch during regular business hours starts at $235 and covers both the trip and the first half hour on site. Distance sets the rest: $260 across most of our range, $300 at the furthest edges of the state. After that first half hour, labor runs $200 an hour. Emergency calls are $495 for the first hour, then $300 an hour. No fine print, and no surprise line items on the invoice.
