What Pipes Are Vulnerable to Freezing?
Because Texas rarely sees below freezing temperatures, our pipes typically don't have the proper insulation to protect from the cold. Additionally, they're typically located in places that don't have proper insulation, such as exterior walls, attics, and or basements.
What Are the Signs of Frozen Pipes?
While it's easy to tell when the temperature drops to a freezing chill, it's not as easy to tell when your pipes are frozen. Winter's cold temperatures bring with it a lot of maintenance concerns for homeowners. One of the most common of these issues is a frozen water pipe.
That's why it's important to be on the lookout for the following signs of frozen pipes:
Cold Temperature: The first sign to look for when it comes to frozen pipes is the outdoor temperature. When the temperature drops to 32 degrees Fahrenheit or lower it's important to begin taking precautions to prevent pipes from freezing.
Frost on the pipes: While not all of your pipes are visible, those under your sink or near your toilet are. If there is noticeable frost on these pipes, chances are that you're dealing with frozen pipes.
No water coming from the faucet: If you turn on the faucet only for no water to turn out, it means that the pipe leading to the faucet is frozen.
Gurgling Sounds: When there are loud gurgling or banging noises coming from your pipes, it is a good sign of chunks of ice flowing through your pipes.
Bulging Pipes: Water expands when frozen. If the water in your pipes begins to freeze the pipes will bulge and eventually burst.
Odd smells: Frozen pipes can also lead to clogs and blockages. If there's a strange smell coming from your plumbing system, it could be due to frozen pipes.
It's important that you give us a call as soon as you spot any of these warning signs. Left alone, frozen pipes can burst, which can result in costly water damage and pipe replacement.

"We will use this company again when needed because of them and our experience."
Trent and Reggie were the most professional associates entering our home. They listened to our concerns and information before even starting to investigate a supposed foundation leak. They treated our home with respect as if it were there's. When they finished they summarized what they did, answered our questions and made some suggestions concerning the water pressure coming into our home. We were very pleased with their work.
