Pipe Thawing Services
 Partial
water service indicates that a pipe is frozen somewhere in the house. A complete
lack of water service can be the result of a frozen water meter or a frozen pipe leading
from the water main in the street to the house. A meter or water pipe that feels extremely
cold is most likely frozen. It's important to clear frozen blockages as soon as possible to
minimize the danger of pipes bursting in some inaccessible spot. The resulting leak could
cause serious property damage. If you are worried about frozen pipes, please contact us
today.
Got Frozen Pipes?
- Don’t let your outdoor faucets freeze up in the winter.
- Unattach your garden hoses before freezing temperatures arrive in the
fall.
- Then close the shut-off valve on the pipe(s) which lead to your outdoor
faucet(s).
- Then open the outdoor faucets so that any residual water can drain.
If your indoor faucets sometimes freeze in very cold weather:
- Try leaving the cabinet doors under the faucets open so that they can
get a bit more heat.
- In extreme cases let the water trickle very slowly into the sink.
- Insulate water pipes which may be exposed to freezing temperatures or
wind. Water pipes which are not being used should be drained for the winter
in areas where there may be severely cold weather.
- If there is plumbing in your garage, be sure to keep your garage door
closed when it is very cold. Pipes in unheated garages or basements should
be insulated.
