  • Pipes in crawl spaces and basements are particularly prone to freezing. When the temperature drops, the water freezes, the pipes expand, and if they’re not thawed, they may burst.

  • Worried about the pipes in your attic? If it’s cold and exposed up there, they could freeze and burst, turning your home into a water feature. Call today for residential pipe insulation in Norfolk, VA, and prepare for winter.

  • Insulating cold water pipes protects against freezing, while insulating hot pipes can prevent heat loss. It also reduces condensation, making pipe insulation ideal for energy savings.

  • If you own a holiday home that’s vacant for extended periods throughout the year, call us to discuss our water pipe freeze protection services. If there’s no one in the building, there’ll be no furnace or central air to keep the house and pipes warm.

  • We use various types of materials (including heat tape, fiberglass, and foam wrap) depending on the pipes, level of exposure, and preference.

Why Pipe Insulation Matters for Norfolk Homes

Although winters in Norfolk, VA, are fairly mild, we do get the occasional cold snap, with the mercury dropping below freezing. When that happens, the water in exposed pipes can freeze, and as ice has more volume than water, the pipes will then expand. The high pressure from water trying to force its way through the pipe will worsen the issue, eventually leading to a burst.

Insulation guards against this outcome, keeping the worst of the winter temperatures away from those pipes and ensuring they remain operational during extreme cold snaps. Furthermore, insulation minimizes condensation and moisture buildup, while also reducing energy loss in hot water pipes.

When to Schedule Pipe Insulation

We offer thermal pipe insulation in Norfolk throughout the year, so it’s never too early to book a visit. Most customers request our insulation services after a frozen pipe scare, at which point they realize how susceptible their pipes are to freezing and do their best to prevent a recurrence.

The best times to insulate pipes in crawl spaces, basements, and attics include:

  • Before a cold snap
  • When you’re going on an extended vacation
  • If you’ve just bought an older home
  • Following an addition/renovation to your attic, crawl space, or basement

We also help many homeowners deal with the aftermath of frozen pipes, including leaks and bursts. We can help them thaw frozen pipes and also repair leaking and burst pipes, but prevention is the best cure, and insulating pipes in advance could save you a lot of money and hassle in the long run.
