An unexpected freeze can quickly cause a huge problem within the inner workings of your home’s plumbing system. Taking preventative measures will help keep your home running smoothly. Our team at Las Vegas Rooter has some tips to keep your home in tiptop shape!
Know Your Home– Consult our professionals to know if there are any exposed pipes in unheated areas of your home. This could mean pipes in exterior walls, or plumbing outside of your home. We’ll help you take preventative measures during the warmer months to eliminate the potential damage of a frozen or busted pipe.
Seasonal Maintenance– As it gets chillier, make sure to disconnect your garden hose, drain it, and store it before the winter’s first freeze. What most homeowners don’t know is that if left connected, a hose can create unwanted pressure throughout your whole plumbing system. This pressure could burst an interior pipe, causing terrible damage to your home’s foundation.
Preventative Measures– For any exposed pipes, it’s always best to consult a professional to come up with the most cost efficient option. Las Vegas Rooter will give you some insight on some inexpensive foam insulation for the pipes in your home. We have extensive knowledge as to the best solutions to eliminate any and all issues.
In the event that you’re left with frozen and/or damaged pipes, you should give a professional at Las Vegas Rooter a call. We have the tools and know-how to address the issue, come up with a plan of repair, and implement a solution to ensure the safety of you and your home.
