Frozen pipes are more than a no-water problem — they burst and flood entire homes when they thaw. Our plumbers safely thaw frozen lines, repair any splits before water is restored, and add insulation and heat cable to prevent it from happening again.
Frozen Pipe Repair — what's included
- Safe frozen pipe thawing (no torches on plastic)
- Split pipe location and repair

What to do right now
Shut off the main water valve immediately — before the pipe thaws. Open faucets to relieve pressure. Do not use open flames on any pipe. Call us and we'll dispatch a plumber with the right thawing equipment.
Preventing frozen pipes
Most freezes happen in uninsulated exterior walls, unheated garages, cold basements and around hose bibs. We install foam pipe insulation, self-regulating heat cable and freeze-proof sillcocks that dramatically reduce risk.

Our Thornhill customers come from Thornhill Woods, Uplands, Beverley Glen, Royal Orchard and surrounding streets. Because our shop is in Concord, we're minutes away — not hours.
Common frozen pipe repair questions
Can I thaw a frozen pipe myself?
Only with warm air (hair dryer, space heater at a safe distance). Never a torch. And always shut off the main first — safer to have us handle it.
How do I prevent freezing next year?
Insulate exposed pipes, disconnect garden hoses in fall, keep the thermostat above 15°C when away, and let a faucet drip during extreme cold snaps.
Will my insurance cover a burst pipe?
Sudden bursts are usually covered; damage from long-term freezing while the home was unheated may not be. Check your policy.
