Even in Garland, TX, property owners are at risk of sustaining significant water damage as a result of frozen pipes. This occurs when the water within pipes expands as it turns into ice, bursts the pipes, and allows potentially hundreds of gallons of water to escape.

The resulting damage can range from discolored furnishings and structural elements to actual structural damage and destroyed belongings. At RestorationMaster, we respond within hours of your call with emergency frozen pipe water damage cleanup services to restore your property.

Preventing Frozen Pipes

In a perfect world, you would never need to contact us in the first place. If you follow these proactive measures, you may be able to do just that:

• Encourage a steady flow of water during cold spells by allowing water to drip out of faucets
• Warm up pipes below sinks by opening cabinet doors
• Wrap poorly insulated pipes in electrical tape or pipe insulation
• Keep commonly cool areas that house pipes (such as attics and basements) warm with space heaters
• If possible, turn off your outdoor water supply, and store your watering hose in a warm environment

Locating Frozen Pipes and Preventing Ruptures

In situations where you were not able to adequately prepare, or your proactive measures simply did not quite do the trick, you can still prevent freezing pipes from rupturing:

• Keep an eye out for faucets with low water pressure
• Follow the pipes feeding affected faucets, and look for frost, ice, bulges, or fissures
• Turn up your heat, use an infrared lamp, or apply heat directly with a hair dryer when you find the specific location of the problem (never use heat with an open flame)
• If need be, you can remove drywall in order to heat freezing pipes, repair them, or add insulation
