Plumbing Elevated. Service Perfected.
Yes. Alchemy Plumbing accepts calls around the clock, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Whether you are dealing with a burst pipe at 2 a.m. or a sewage backup on a holiday weekend, our Lake Oswego team is ready to respond. When you call, we will walk you through immediate steps to minimize damage — like shutting off the main water valve — while we dispatch a licensed plumber to your location. We handle everything from emergency water heater failures and gas line concerns to active leaks and flooding. Our goal is to get eyes on the problem fast so we can stop the damage, diagnose the root cause, and get your system back to working order with as little disruption as possible.
Alchemy Plumbing responds to the full range of residential and commercial plumbing emergencies in Lake Oswego. That includes burst or frozen pipes, major water leaks, slab leaks, sewer line backups, overflowing toilets, failed water heaters, gas line issues, and flooding from failed sump pumps. We also respond to commercial emergencies for businesses in the Lake Oswego area, including restaurants, office buildings, and multi-unit properties. If you are not sure whether your situation qualifies as an emergency, call us — our team will help you assess the urgency and determine the right next step.
First, locate and shut off the main water valve to stop additional water from flowing into your home. If the emergency involves a gas appliance or you smell gas, leave the property immediately, call 911, and then contact Northwest Natural. Avoid using electrical switches near standing water. If there is localized flooding, move valuables to a dry area and start removing standing water with towels or a wet vacuum if it is safe to do so. When you call Alchemy Plumbing, our team will walk you through these steps over the phone while a licensed plumber is on the way to your Lake Oswego home or business.
Gas leaks require immediate action. If you suspect a gas leak, evacuate your property, call 911, and then contact your gas utility (Northwest Natural in most of Lake Oswego). Once the area is safe and the utility has responded, Alchemy Plumbing can handle the repair, replacement, and re-certification of the affected gas line. Our team is experienced with gas line repair and installation for both residential and commercial properties. We coordinate directly with the utility to ensure the line is properly tested and cleared before your gas service is restored. Never attempt to locate or repair a gas leak yourself.
Because Alchemy Plumbing is headquartered right here in Lake Oswego at 6615 SW McEwan Rd, our response times for local emergencies are among the fastest in the area. We accept calls 24/7 and prioritize active emergencies — burst pipes, sewer backups, gas concerns, and flooding — to get a licensed plumber to your door as quickly as possible. Response times vary depending on current call volume and time of day, but our local presence means we are not dispatching from across the metro. Call us at 971-405-8448 to get immediate help.

Whether it is a main line backup in a restaurant kitchen or a water heater failure in an office building, our licensed team has the equipment and experience to diagnose and resolve the issue quickly.
