What to Do If Pipes Freeze

Even with the best preventive measures in place, sometimes pipes freeze unexpectedly. If a frozen pipe is suspected there are some immediate measures to take.

Turn Off the Water Supply: If a pipe freezes, immediately shut off the water supply to prevent a burst pipe from flooding the home.

Thaw the Pipe Slowly: Use a hairdryer, space heater, or hot towels to gently thaw the frozen pipe. Avoid using open flames, such as a blowtorch, as this could damage the pipe or create a fire hazard.

Call a Professional Plumber: A homeowner may not be able to locate or safely thaw the frozen pipe, it’s best to contact a professional plumber to prevent any further damage.

Importance of Professional Plumbing Services

While some winterizing tips can be carried out by the homeowner, such as dripping faucets, opening cabinet doors, and keeping the thermostat at the correct temperature, sometimes professional assistance is necessary.

In instances of a burst pipe, thawing a large portion of frozen pipes, or installing pipe heating cables, it’s essential to rely on the expertise of a licensed plumber.

Professional plumbing services can also help a homeowner identify areas of the home that are particularly vulnerable to freezing.

Leaky’s offers long-term solutions such as upgrading insulation, rerouting pipes, or installing more advanced heating systems.

The Costs of Ignoring Frozen Pipes

Ignoring frozen pipes can lead to costly repairs and significant damage. A burst pipe can cause flooding, ruin floors and walls, and create mold problems that are both dangerous and expensive to fix. According to insurance industry data, the average cost of repairing water damage from burst pipes can range from $5,000 to $70,000, depending on the extent of the damage and the home’s structure. This makes prevention a far more cost-effective solution.
