FAQ
Frozen & Burst Pipe Repair FAQs
Can I thaw a pipe myself?
Yes, with gentle heat and the faucet open. Never use a torch. If you cannot find the frozen spot, call a plumber.
Why do back additions freeze so often?
Many were added later with less insulation and sit over cold crawl spaces.
Will a burst pipe always leak right away?
Not always. Many leak only after the ice thaws, so watch closely as things warm up.
