Frozen pipes are more than just an inconvenience they can cause water blockages, leaks, or even pipe bursts that lead to costly damage. The challenge is, sometimes it’s hard to know whether your pipes are actually frozen or if something else is going on.
That’s where having the right experts makes all the difference. At Elite Spot-On Services, we don’t do the repairs instead, we use advanced diagnostic technology to help homeowners and plumbers pinpoint the exact issue. Then, we refer our findings to a licensed contractor so the work gets done right the first time.
Why Do Pipes Freeze?
Pipes are more vulnerable when:
-
Temperatures fall below 32°F
-
Plumbing is located in uninsulated or poorly heated areas (attics, crawl spaces, exterior walls)
-
There’s limited airflow around the pipes
Warning Signs of Frozen Pipes
If you notice any of these, frozen pipes may be to blame:
-
No Water Flow
If you turn on the faucet and only get a trickle or nothing at all ice may be blocking your pipes. -
Odd Odors
Unpleasant smells coming from drains or faucets can signal that ice is stopping waste from exiting properly. -
Frost on Exposed Pipes
Visible frost or ice on accessible pipes is a telltale sign of trouble. -
Strange Noises
Banging, clanking, or whistling may mean water is struggling to pass through an icy blockage.
What to Do if You Suspect Frozen Pipes
-
Shut off your main water supply to reduce risk of flooding.
-
Keep faucets slightly open to relieve pressure as ice begins to melt.
-
Use safe heat sources (like a space heater or hair dryer) to gently warm exposed sections—never an open flame.
-
Call your plumber.
