When the temperatures go below freezing, many people find that their pipes have burst and frozen. When the pipes rupture, the homes or commercial buildings are subject to flooding which can seriously ruin infrastructure.
The bad news is that cleaning up after a frozen pipe break is much harder than just cleaning up a water leak. The good news is that we can help restore your home and ensure there is no lasting damage from the pipe bursting.
We recommend you call us right away if you notice any of the following:
- There are loud noises inside your wall
- You leave faucets on overnight to keep them from freezing but you wake up to them not running
- The toilet tanks are not refilling after you flush them
- The water pressure is very low
- You notice streaks and dark areas in your walls
- There are water spots in the ceiling
- You notice the pipes under the sink are covered in condensation or frost
- Your water meter shows water flowing but all your fixtures are off
- There are sinkholes in the yard, and you do not know where they came from
If you notice any of the above things, make sure you call us as a frozen pipe burst can quickly turn into an emergency.
Our Process
If you call us to come to your house after a pipe burst cleanup, you might be wondering what to expect when we arrive. A pipe burst is very stressful so we always aim to ensure we take the stress off your shoulders and do all the hard work for you.
Here are the things you can expect us to do and help you with.
Step 1: Inspection
When we first arrive, we have to inspect the entire area. This is so we know what we are dealing with and we know the best course of action to take.
We will need to look at all the walls and under the sinks to see how extensive the damage is. We will also take a look at any dark water spots or streaks on the walls and ceilings.
We also need to ensure we know the source of the pipe bursting so we can turn off the water at the source so it doesn’t continue leaking. We will do this first and then turn off the water. If the damage is extensive, we might have to turn the water off to the entire home.
We might also have to turn off the electricity if the leak has happened close to water sources or wires. This is because water next to electricity can be very dangerous so we need to make sure we are keeping you and your family safe.
Step 2: Protect Your Furniture
This needs to be done quickly because we want to make sure all your carpets and furniture are safe. Sometimes, the water can extensively ruin your furniture and in this case, you will need to buy new items.
However, we try to restore items whenever possible. If the damaged furniture can be restored, we will take it to our facilities and try to dry it out and clean it as much as possible. All the items will need to be relocated so that they do not stay in a wet environment.
You will also need to open the windows of your home so that fresh air can come in. We will also set up large dehumidifiers to ensure that the moisture in the home comes out and goes back to safe levels.
Step 3: Cleaning the Area
Now that furniture is out of the home and the water leak has been located, it’s time to start cleaning the home. We need to get the water out as fast as possible. We will have to use our special water mitigation and water techniques in this part. We have special equipment that can remove large amounts of standing water in a small amount of time.
We also have commercial-grade tools where we can suction the water out of the walls and the floors. This ensures that all the water is removed from the home and that mold cannot grow. If there is water in the home, mold has the chance of growing and this can be very dangerous to the health of you and your family.
This is why we advise you not to clean your home yourself after a pipe burst. You might not be able to remove all the water and the mold will begin growing under the floors and in the walls. Your family might start having allergies and asthma.
Step 4: Restoring the Home
If the water damage is extensive, we might need to take steps to restore the home. This means repairing sections of the floor and walls.
If we are able to restore the furniture that is in the home, we will also bring all the items back into the home and ensure your place looks even more beautiful than before.
Before we leave, we will ensure that the plumbing and electricity are back in order as well as ensure that the humidity levels are safe. We have special tools that can measure the moisture in the air and we always want to make sure the level is safe before you and your family back.
