A plumbing emergency in Big Bend demands an immediate response — and Burkhardt delivers one. Our licensed master plumbers are dispatched 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year to handle burst pipes, sewer backups, failed sump pumps, gas line leaks, water heater failures, and overflowing toilets throughout Big Bend and Waukesha County.
Big Bend is small Fox River village in Waukesha County, known for some of the hardest water in the greater Milwaukee area. The local housing stock consists largely of a mix of older Fox River village homes and surrounding rural residential properties. The area is served by municipal well supply with elevated hardness levels typical of Waukesha County. Minerals in the local water supply, combined with the age of many plumbing systems, create real risk of sudden failure — especially during Wisconsin's coldest months when freezing temperatures stress already-aged pipes and joints. When a system fails in this environment, water damage escalates within minutes.
Every Burkhardt emergency truck is fully stocked to resolve most plumbing emergencies on the first visit, minimizing water damage and restoring normalcy to your home as quickly as possible. Our technicians arrive with diagnostic equipment, repair parts, and the licensing required to work on gas and water lines throughout Wisconsin. We serve every neighborhood in Big Bend — from the center of town to the farthest residential streets.
Burkhardt Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electric has served Big Bend and the surrounding Waukesha County area for more than 60 years. We are a third-generation, family-owned company — not a franchise — which means local accountability and consistent service every time. GreenSky financing is available to help manage the cost of unexpected emergency repairs or larger replacement projects discovered during an emergency call. Call 414-206-3049 to schedule service or speak with a dispatcher any time of day or night.
