Frozen Pipe Thawing Process Loomis

How We Save Your Pipes
First, we locate the exact frozen section through thorough inspection of your plumbing system. This step is crucial—frozen areas are often hidden behind walls or in crawl spaces where homeowners can’t reach them. Next, we use professional thawing equipment like heat guns, infrared lamps, and electric pipe thawing tools. These methods safely melt the ice without damaging your pipes or surrounding structures, unlike DIY attempts with hair dryers or open flames. Once water flows freely again, we verify the thawing success and check for any damage. Then we provide specific recommendations to prevent future freezing, including insulation upgrades and temperature regulation strategies tailored to your Loomis property.

How quickly can you respond to frozen pipes in Loomis?

We provide 24/7 emergency response for frozen pipes in Loomis, typically arriving within hours of your call. Unlike some companies that make you wait days or only work during business hours, we understand that frozen pipes don’t follow a schedule. Our emergency response is designed to minimize damage and get your water flowing again fast. The longer frozen pipes sit, the higher the risk of bursting, which can cause thousands in water damage and disrupt your entire household. When you call us, you’re talking to our team directly—not an answering service that takes messages. We dispatch immediately because we know every minute counts when your pipes are frozen.
In Loomis, pipes freeze when they’re exposed to cold air in uninsulated areas like basements, attics, crawl spaces, and along exterior walls. Even though our winter temperatures rarely drop below 32°F, pipes in these vulnerable locations can still freeze when cold air circulates around them. Poor insulation is the biggest culprit. Pipes running through areas without proper insulation or where cold drafts enter through gaps around windows, doors, and foundations are most at risk. Homes built before modern insulation standards face higher risk. We also see freezing in pipes that homeowners can’t easily access or monitor. These hidden pipes freeze without obvious warning signs until water stops flowing or, worse, until they burst and cause water damage.
Frozen pipe thawing typically costs between $150-$350 for the plumbing repair itself, depending on the location and severity. However, if pipes have already burst, costs can range from $500-$2,000 or more, plus potential water damage cleanup averaging $3,500. That’s why we emphasize fast response—catching frozen pipes before they burst saves you thousands. Emergency service calls during nights or weekends may include a premium, but it’s far less expensive than dealing with burst pipes and flooding. We provide upfront, transparent pricing with no diagnostic fees. The quote we give you over the phone is what you pay, unlike companies that charge you just to look at the problem before giving you the real price.
While minor cases might be addressed with hair dryers or warm towels, professional assistance ensures safety and prevents damage. DIY thawing attempts often fail because most frozen areas are behind walls or in crawl spaces where homeowners can’t safely reach them. Using the wrong heat source can damage pipes or create fire hazards. We’ve seen homeowners crack pipes by applying too much heat too quickly, or create electrical hazards by using extension cords in wet areas. Professional thawing equipment is designed specifically for this job. We can safely access hard-to-reach areas and use controlled heat that thaws ice without damaging your pipes or surrounding structures. Plus, we identify why the freezing happened and how to prevent it.
Turn off your main water supply immediately to prevent flooding if pipes burst. This is the most important step—it can save you thousands in water damage if pipes rupture while you’re waiting for help. Next, turn on faucets connected to the frozen pipes to relieve pressure and allow water to flow once thawing begins. Open cabinet doors under sinks to let warmer air circulate around pipes, but never use open flames or uncontrolled heat sources. Call us immediately at our 24/7 emergency line. Don’t wait to see if pipes will thaw on their own—the longer they stay frozen, the higher the risk of bursting. We can often prevent major damage by responding quickly with professional thawing equipment.
Insulate pipes in unheated areas like basements, attics, and crawl spaces using foam sleeves or pipe wrap. This is the most effective prevention method for Loomis homes, where pipes in these areas face the highest risk during winter months. Keep your thermostat set to at least 55°F even when you’re away, and allow faucets to drip slightly during extreme cold spells. The moving water helps prevent freezing, and the small increase in your water bill is far less than frozen pipe repair costs. Seal gaps around doors, windows, and foundations to prevent cold drafts from reaching your pipes. We can inspect your property and provide specific recommendations based on your home’s layout and vulnerable areas.
