Dangers of Frozen Pipes

When temperatures are freezing, your pipes can face a big problem. Water can get trapped inside and freeze, causing not only blocks but expansion. While frozen pipes may seem like a small issue, it can actually lead to further problems. When frozen pipes are under constant pressure and expand, they can burst, causing a flood and a lot of water damage. 

Here are the common signs that you have frozen pipes:

  • Frost on exposed pipes
  • No water coming out of the tap
  • Strange odour from taps
  • Damp walls
  • Strange sounds from the faucet

Our Frozen Pipe Repair and Replacement Services

Leaving frozen pipes unattended may cause more damage than you think. Our team starts with identifying the issue within the pipe, also locating its origin. From there our solutions involve thawing the pipe, repairing frozen pipe then insulating the area to prevent future issues. Here’s how we do it.

We start by inspecting the whole area of your frozen pipe. This way we can determine where the problem starts and stops.

Thawing frozen pipes is a delicate procedure that requires careful care and knowledge. This is done by applying heat to the frozen areas.

Depending on the extent of damages, we can repair or replace the pipes once the frozen pipes are fixed. Our repair solution involves tightening pipe joints and applying protective resin to prevent minor damages. 

For pipe bursts that lead to larger damages, we offer complete frozen pipe replacement. This is a long lasting solution that will prevent future water damage.

For homes that require proper insulation, our team can provide different solutions such as proper insulation, heating cables, and more. 

If you live in an older home in Ottawa, there is a high chance that you need proper insulation for your plumbing system. Don’t wait until your pipes are frozen to contact our team – be proactive and beat the cold. Contact our team to start winterizing your plumbing.
