Thaw Your Frozen Pipes The Right Way
East Texas winters can be harsh on your outside plumbing. Sub-freezing temperatures cause water to harden and pipes to expand and burst. When this happens, contact McCoy Plumbing. We offer fast pipe thawing service for all residential and commercial properties in Tyler and the surround cities. We thaw all types of plumbing systems including metal and PVC pipes.
Don't Let Your Plumbing Stay Frozen
Exposing your pipes to freezing temperature will damage them if they not properly insulated. Pipes burst because of the expansion of frozen water which has nowhere to go. This same expansion can loosen the connections between two pipes. The result is leaks and mold or mildew growth.
We Offer Plumbing Solutions That Work
At McCoy, we offer a comprehensive plumbing service that provides you with long-term solutions for preserving your pipes during the winter. We can isolate the sections of your plumbing where the damage occurred. From there we replace the old pipes with new durable piping, and then protect the exposed plumbing with proper insulation. Our goal is to provide you with long-term results instead of quick fixes. You'll save time and money down the road.
What Should You Do If You Have Frozen Pipes?
In cases of severe weather and icy roads, a McCoy Plumber may not be able to reach you immediately. There are some steps you can take, however, to thaw out or isolate your frozen pipes until a plumber arrives.
- Shut off the main water line leading into the property. This eases the pressure on your pipes and reduces the potential for further damage.
- You can slowly thaw out the pipes using a common household hair dryer. Do not use any flame or torch equipment. Placing hot flame on a frozen pipe will cause it to burst instantly.
- If you observe slower water pressure and anticipate that your pipes will be frozen, it's best to call a McCoy plumber to take preventative measures and reduce the risk of damaged pipes.
