Front Royal Frozen Pipe Repair and Prevention Services

Keep your pipes from freezing and fix them promptly when they do!

When Virginia temperatures drop below freezing, the water inside your pipes can turn to ice. As the ice expands, it puts pressure on the pipe walls, causing them to swell and even crack or burst. Burst pipes can wreak havoc throughout your plumbing system and lead to flooding in parts of your house. When that happens, you need the best plumbers in the Valley. Mr. Rooter Plumbing of the Shenandoah Valley is here to offer professional service to Winchester, Stephens City, Middletown, Strasburg, and the surrounding communities! Whether you are experiencing frozen pipes, leaks, or burst pipes, contact our local Front Royal frozen pipe repair crew!

  • Unprotected or unheated pipes have a higher probability of becoming obstructed with ice. Plumbing in basements, crawl spaces, attics, garages, and exterior walls is most prone to freezing conditions and most likely to need our Front Royal burst pipe repair services. Even if your pipes don't burst, an expanded pipe after thawing is compromised and may be susceptible to future leaks. When it comes to water pipes freezing, prevention is easier (and cheaper) than repair.

  • Water sitting in outdoor pipes begins to freeze when temperatures reach 32°F. For frozen pipe prevention, Front Royal plumbers recommend keeping your thermostat set to a minimum of 55°F when the temperature gets that low, and leaving under-sink cabinet doors ajar to allow for heat circulation. Leave faucets at a slow drip to keep water moving through the pipes. Finally, schedule a professional pipe insulation service to protect exterior and unheated pipes.

  • If you haven't experienced burst pipes yet, save yourself the expense and hassle by calling us immediately if you notice any signs that a pipe is frozen. A highly trained professional will help you with the delicate thawing process to get your water flowing again. Our Front Royal frozen pipe repair services are available day or night - because a frozen pipe can't wait! Contact our anytime customer service when you need an emergency plumbing appointment for freezing or burst pipes.

Frequently Asked Questions

When it comes to frozen pipe prevention, Front Royal takes advice from Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Shenandoah Valley! Contact us if you have a question about frozen or burst pipes that isn’t answered below.

  • When a frozen pipe bursts, high repair bills follow closely behind. It may not leak immediately once the pipe splits, if the water is still frozen, but once the pipe thaws you could spill thousands of gallons of water through that crack and rack up an astronomical water bill. Trying to prevent your pipes from freezing should be your first move, but freezing sometimes happens anyway. If it does, the best thing you can do is try to catch it before it bursts and get the pipe thawed. In addition to providing the quickest Front Royal burst pipe repair, we can also help with thawing efforts to stave off the break!
