Spotting frozen pipes early can help you avoid a major plumbing disaster. Here are some common signs to watch for:
- No water or low water pressure from faucets
- Visible frost on exposed pipes
- Strange odors coming from drains (due to blocked vent pipes)
- Unusual sounds, such as banging or clanging, in the plumbing
- Wet spots or water stains on walls or ceilings
If you notice any of these warning signs, it’s important to act quickly. Mr. Rooter Plumbing is equipped to thaw pipes safely and inspect for damage to prevent costly repairs down the road.
Our Frozen Pipe Services
At Mr. Rooter, we provide a full range of frozen pipe services designed to address emergencies and prevent future problems:
Pipe Thawing
Our skilled plumbers use safe, professional-grade equipment to gently thaw frozen pipes without causing damage. We never recommend using open flames or DIY methods that can worsen the situation or create fire hazards.
Burst Pipe Repair
If a pipe has already burst, we act fast to shut off the water supply, assess the damage, and repair or replace the affected section of pipe. We’ll also inspect nearby pipes to ensure no other areas have been compromised.
Leak Detection
Water damage isn’t always visible right away. We use advanced leak detection tools to identify hidden issues behind walls, ceilings, and floors—saving you from more extensive repairs later.
Preventative Winterization
Protecting your home before temperatures drop is the best way to avoid frozen pipes. Our winterization services include:
- Pipe insulation for vulnerable plumbing
- Outdoor faucet and hose bib protection
- Heat cable installation for high-risk areas
- Sealing air leaks that let cold air reach pipes
Don’t wait for a burst—contact Mr. Rooter Plumbing now and schedule an appointment for fast, reliable frozen pipe service.
Why Frozen Pipes Can’t Wait
Frozen pipes aren’t just a winter inconvenience—they can turn into full-scale water emergencies. A single burst pipe can release hundreds of gallons of water per hour, damaging floors, walls, and belongings. The cleanup and repair costs can quickly add up.
At Mr. Rooter Plumbing, we understand the urgency. That’s why we offer 24/7 emergency plumbing services, with no overtime charges—ever. You can rely on us for rapid response and quality workmanship, backed by our Neighborly Done Right Promise®.
