Expert Long Island Frozen Pipes Repair Services

Is there ever a good time for frozen pipes? Being aware of the risks of varying pipe issues, especially in the winter, is critical. Neglected frozen pipes lead to cracks, leaks, or even burst pipes. If your pipes are not properly maintained, severe damages as a result of frozen pipes include:

• Structural damage
• Electric shocks
• Flooding
• Property damage
• Mold growth
• High repair costs
• Disruption of water supply

As temperatures in the winter continue to drop, the risk of frozen pipes forming increases. Once the temperature has dropped below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, the water in your pipes can freeze and begin to expand, leading to the potential for extreme damage. Pipes that run along exterior walls with little to no proper insulation are particularly in danger of freezing. Not all hope is lost! We offer tips and tricks to ensure your piping system stays intact, including leak detection services. We also recommend solutions like:

• Pipe insulation
• Leave your temperature no lower than 55 degrees Fahrenheit
• Remove and drain all hoses used outdoors
• Let your faucets drip
• Close inside valves to outdoor faucets and drain the remaining water
• Keep garage doors closed in chilly temperatures

These prevention methods may sound tedious, but they’re not nearly as horrible as a destroyed plumbing system that costs thousands of dollars to repair. Contact our plumbing experts for anytime services so you can count on us to assist you day and night.

Signs of frozen pipes include clanking sounds from your pipes, cracked pipes, little water flow from the faucets, condensation and frost on your pipes, and more. Even small leaks can lead to extreme flooding. There are some short-term DIY fixes, but contacting a professional for the emergency pipe repair Long Island can count on will ultimately save your house in the end.
