Frozen-pipe coordination

Safe thawing advice, shutoff help, and arranging a licensed plumber for a split pipe are the core of this page. Open-flame thawing is not.

Pipes that have frozen and aren't flowing

A licensed plumber can be arranged when the work requires one. We'll also talk through safer next steps than an open flame.

Pipes that split as they thawed

That's a leak. Shut the water off if you can do it safely. Licensed plumbing is arranged for the repair.

After the leak is stopped

A wet cabinet or ceiling can be patched once it's actually dry.

What we will not tell you to do

We will not recommend a torch, a charcoal grill, or an unattended space heater as a thaw method. Those start fires.

How a request works

A straightforward path from your message to a clear price — then work only if you say yes.

  1. Handle fire or immediate danger first

    911, if that's what it is.

  2. Shut the water off if a thaw has already started a leak and you can do it safely

    Then tell us frozen, leaking, or both.

  3. A visit and a quote — then your OK

    A licensed plumber is arranged when required. We will not promise a thaw-by-a-certain-hour window. Opening a wall is a new conversation if that becomes necessary.

Frozen pipes in Pittsburgh winters

Cold air settles in river-town basements and in little-used rooms on the windward side of a hill. Older supplies and stops don't always sit in conditioned space.

Include your ZIP and whether the line is still frozen or already leaking. This intake covers Pittsburgh and nearby Allegheny County.

Questions

Should I use a torch?

No. Open-flame thawing starts fires. If a fire has already started, call 911.

Can you guarantee you'll thaw it before it bursts?

No. We will not promise an arrival window or a result we can't control. Shutting the water off, if you can do it safely, is the surest way to limit a burst.

Are you a licensed plumber?

Work that requires a license is arranged with a licensed local plumber. This page does not claim a license number under this brand.

Is this 24/7?

We do not advertise a staffed 24/7 dispatch we have not built. We'll be honest about what's possible when you call.

The pipe thawed and now it's leaking.

Treat it as a leak. Shut the water off if you can do it safely and tell us that the line has split.

Who comes out?

A licensed plumber is arranged when required. You'll know who is coming before a visit.

Request help

If a pipe is already spraying, say that first and shut the water off if you can do it safely.

Tell us whether the pipe is still frozen or already leaking, which room or basement run, and whether you can shut the water off. If a space heater or open flame is involved, stop and use safer heat only, or call 911 if there's fire danger.
