Poor insulation, cold air, and temperatures dropping can be a bad combination that leads to pipes freezing. Swimming pool supply lines and outdoor pipes are particularly vulnerable to freezing temperatures during the winter.

If you suspect frozen pipes could be a problem it’s important to act immediately. Fixing frozen pipes is possible, but requires careful attention and following safety precautions to avoid further damage or injury.

Getting Professional Help to Thaw Pipes Before They Burst

At Made’s Plumbing we use professional pipe thawing equipment to prevent a catastrophe like pipes breaking or bursting. We also examine the piping to look for damage from the frozen water expanding inside. Even if the pipe doesn’t burst, you could have a leak on your hands.

Before the thawing process begins, we’ll turn off the main water supply to help prevent potential flooding. We come prepared for just about anything since frozen pipe repair could be straightforward or involve widespread damage.

Repairing Leaks and Burst Pipes

Freezing puts a lot of stress on your pipes and the rest of the plumbing system. After the pipes have been thawed you may find that further repair is needed to correct leaks, fix the piping and prevent the possibility of the pipes freezing again.

Professional plumbers in Arlington, like the team at Made’s, are going to inspect your plumbing system to identify problems. Minimizing the damage requires fixing things right away.

Call Made’s Plumbing if you want to inspect your plumbing system before the cold settles in, to prepare pipes for the winter or to thaw pipes that have frozen.
