Residential Frozen Pipe Repair in Columbus

At Mr. Rooter Plumbing®, we look forward to winter – it’s one of our favorite times of the year! But it’s definitely not the best season for your plumbing. When the temperatures dip below freezing, exposed pipes can freeze, leaving you without running water - or worse - with a burst pipe.

Luckily, we offer frozen pipe repair in Columbus to stave off winter disasters! Read on to learn more about our residential frozen pipe repair services and prevention methods.

Our Residential Frozen Pipe Repair Services

Not all frozen pipes require the same repair techniques. Generally, when we perform frozen pipe repairs in Columbus, we’ll use one of two methods: thawing or burst repair.

  • Thawing: Thawing is reserved for when your pipes are frozen but still intact. During this process, we’ll use warming tools to thaw the pipes without damaging them. Though the ice may melt on its own without professional help, it typically takes hours, and there’s still a risk of pipe bursts.
  • Burst repair: As water turns into ice, it expands and can crack pipes open. To fix ruptured pipes, we’ll use a burst pipe repair kit. Still, the pipe may need to be replaced in some cases. Repair kits are ideal for moderate burst damage, and replacement is best for severely damaged pipes.

If you currently have frozen pipes, act quickly. Fixing frozen pipes fast, whether they’re busted or not, can limit damage and save you a lot of money in plumbing repairs.

Prevent Frozen Pipes with Insulation

Preventing frozen pipes is always better than having to repair pipe damage. Fortunately, with a little help from Mr. Rooter, keeping your pipes protected is easy. Our team can install pipe insulation to keep your pipes from freezing. Here’s a quick overview of the types of pipe insulation we can install in your home:

  • Rigid foam pipe insulation: This material provides slightly less insulation than other materials but is moisture- and corrosion-resistant.
  • Flexible elastomeric foams or rubber pipe insulation: Elastomeric foams are durable, flexible, easy to install, and highly effective at regulating temperatures.
  • Polyethylene: This is the most popular option for residential pipe insulation because it’s affordable, durable, and lightweight. It also offers excellent freeze protection and condensation control.
