Frozen Pipe Repair and Flood Cleanup in Elk Grove Village, IL

(630) 656-9915

In Elk Grove Village, IL, and the surrounding areas, winters can be harsh, featuring a lot of snow and severely cold temperatures. Because of this weather, there’s a good chance for frozen pipes to occur. With cold enough temperatures, water that is inside the pipes will freeze into ice, expanding in size. This expansion places pressure on the pipes. With enough pressure, the ice will burst open the pipe, spread water throughout the property, and result in water damage.

NuEra Restoration and Remodeling can help those in Elk Grove Village, IL, and the surrounding areas with such damage with the frozen pipe damage restoration services we provide. Our professionals clean up the mess burst pipes create and restore the damaged property it has affected. To do this, we first extract water, dry the area, and then work on restoring the damaged materials.

Knowing how low temperatures can get during the winter in the Elk Grove Village area, it is crucial to look out for any frozen pipes in your home or building, because frozen pipes often burst and cause serious water damage on your property.

Frozen Pipe Repair and Flood Cleanup

If you do experience a pipe burst on your property, the first thing you should do is shut the water off. After that, get in touch with us for our frozen pipe damage restoration services. It is important to act right away, because water damage worsens with time. With our advanced equipment, we will eliminate any standing water and excess moisture from affected materials. Then, we will restore the damaged areas and check for mold growth.

Preventing Frozen Pipes

You can’t stop freezing temperatures in the winter, but you can prevent frozen pipes. If you follow these steps, you can reduce the risk of frozen pipes and avoid pipe bursts on your property:

  • Turn on your faucets to drip water. The constant movement within the pipes will help prevent the water from freezing.
  • To keep pipes beneath sinks warm enough, open the cabinet doors so that the heat enters.
  • To insulate pipes that are in vulnerable places, use pipe insulation or electrical tape.
  • As long as it’s deemed safe, heat uninsulated pipes by placing a space heater in the area.
  • During the winter, bring your garden hoses inside, and turn off the outside water supply.

Thawing Frozen Pipes

Low water pressure and icy or frosty pipes are indicators that a pipe has frozen. To find and thaw the frozen pipe, follow these steps:

  • Locate the line with the frozen pipe.
  • Locate the frozen section by following the pipe line.
  • Check for ice, frost, or bulges on the pipes.
  • Use a hair dryer or heat lamp to thaw the pipe. Don’t use any kind of open flame to thaw it.
  • If you need to, remove the drywall to access the frozen pipe.
  • At the end of the pipe line with the frozen pipe, turn the faucet on to a trickle.

"Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Responsiveness, Value Clint and his team were AWESOME!!! He was very considerate of my time and space. I was very frustrated when he arrived & when he left I felt happy and relieved that my issue was resolved! He made sure to clean everything with non-toxic chemicals so that my kids would be safe, he explained everything he was doing and executed it perfectly. I had a leak in my ceiling and sewage water everywhere. He put in the time and hard work to disinfect, clean, and dry everything throughly. He was quick, efficient, and respectful! I would definitely recommend his services to anyone who has an issue in their space. Thank you Clint."

"Our technician Alec came in and re-padded the carpet that had been torn up last week due to water damage. He was so friendly and talkative, and worked very quickly to get the job done! In and out within 30 minutes so that I could get on with my day. Would definitely recommend. Thanks Alec!"

"After our apartment flooded on Chirstmas Eve, we were worried about dry wall repairs and patches, and disgusted by the stench. NuEra handled our dry wall replacement and patching and our carpets. We didn't get a business card from the man who worked on our walls and ceilings, but he did so without his partner that day. We are so grateful! After the drywall repairs, our carpets were cleaned so thoroughly and efficiently. Alex treated the carpet and scrubbed it out well before applying the deodorizer and scrubbing that in. He even got out a bright yellow stain from the water that had leaked in. It's such a relief to no longer live in a stinky apartment! Alex and Nick were wonderful! Thank you so much!"
