Frequently Asked Questions Columbus Broken Pipe Repair

The reason pipes break is usually improper insulation that leads to freezing and bursting. This happens especially with water lines running across the garage or near outside walls. If you leave the garage door open in the wintertime, the garage gets super cold and the lines freeze. Once those pipes start to thaw, they can burst.

If a pipe is broken, you’re usually going to get water everywhere–your water is going to run until somebody shuts it off.

It’s crucial to know where your main water shut off is. Turn it off immediately and keep it off until the problem has been fixed.

Different types of pipe will withstand the freezing and damage better than others. PEX pipe is pretty forgiving as far as freezing, where copper pipes are more at risk to freeze and burst.

Burst pipe repair in Columbus depends on the situation. If we need to start cutting drywall to expose the pipes and pinpoint the area, it takes longer. Sometimes there are multiple places where the copper lines have frozen. The solder joints may leak at a different time later on. When we come on-site, we do our best to isolate the issue and work to resolve it.
