Burst Pipes Prevention

Burst pipes are a common problem, especially in areas with harsh winter weather. When temperatures drop, the water inside the plumbing lines can freeze, causing them to leak or rupture. This not only leads to water damage in your home, but it can also be incredibly costly to repair.

Burst pipes can be costly. Not only do you have to pay for the cost of repairing the burst pipe, but you also need to address the water damage in your home. That’s why it’s so important to take proactive steps to prevent broken lines in the first place.

Here are some helpful tips:

Insulate pipes: Protect those that are exposed to the cold, like those in the attic or running through exterior walls. This helps protect them from freezing temperatures.
Let outdoor taps drip: Allow outdoor water taps to drip slightly during the cold months to keep water moving and prevent freezing.
Drain outdoor hoses: Store hoses inside before winter starts to prevent them from freezing.
Maintain thermostat settings: Keep a consistent thermostat temperature day and night to avoid dramatic temperature fluctuations.
Keep water heater on: Consider leaving your water heater on, even if you'll be away from home for a period of time.
Open cabinet and bathroom doors: Allow warm air to circulate around pipes by opening cabinet and bathroom doors.

Taking these proactive measures can help prevent the headaches and high costs associated with spit water lines. However, if a pipe ruptures in your home or business, don’t wait – contact the experts at Ben’s Plumbing right away for fast, professional burst pipe repair services.

Causes of Burst Pipes

Ruptured pipes can be a real headache, leading to water damage, costly repairs, and potential emergencies. Understanding the common causes behind these plumbing issues is the first step in saving on the cost of emergency burst pipe repair for your home or business.

Low Temperature

Frozen water lines are a leading cause of cracked pipes. The water inside freezes, expands, and puts pressure on the pipe until it bursts. Ben’s Plumbing offers reliable frozen pipe burst repair services to quickly address this issue.

Old Age and Corrosion

Over time, the materials used to construct water lines – like iron or copper – can degrade and corrode, weakening the walls and making them prone to collapse.

Clogged Pipes

Severe clogs in the pipes can also build up pressure and lead to leaks or cracks. And in some cases, a sudden impact or physical trauma can simply cause it to crack or split.

What Should I Do In Case of a Rupture

When you’re faced with a fractured water line in your home or business, the first crucial step is to shut off the main water supply. This will stop the water from continuing to flow and cause further damage.

Once the water is turned off, it’s time to call in the experts. At Ben’s Plumbing, we have the skills and resources to provide prompt, efficient pipe burst fix.

If the damage is relatively minor, our plumber may be able to simply repair the ruptured area. However, in more severe cases, a replacement may be necessary. Before any work begins, our team will thoroughly evaluate the extent of the issue and provide you with an upfront pipe burst repair cost estimate.

We understand cracked lines can be stressful and disruptive, so we’ll work quickly and diligently to get your water flowing again with minimal disruption. Our goal is to get your property back to normal as soon as possible, all while ensuring the repairs are done right the first time.

As an owner of a 100+ year old house, I'm well acquainted with plumbers. Ben Foster is the best. Great communication from his office, and he offered to come over the same day when I called because my description of the problem made it sound like an emergency (it wasn't). He showed up at the agreed upon time, and efficiently handled the faucet repair. He also let me know that the original sink stopper mechanism (my term, not his) was much higher value that the replacement I had purchased, recommended I retain it, and told me he would make the original work. Ben is friendly and professional and was a joy to work with.

Prior to calling Ben, we had already tried a couple contractors on Thumbtack. Ben came over the same day I called and arrived on time. He found the issue and gave me options to fix it. He even offered to teach me how to do the work myself to save me money! Ben is an incredibly honest and knowledgeable professional. I would not hesitate to recommend him and will definitely call him the next time I have a problem.

Ben's responded quickly to a small leak that had developed. They quoted us a rate to find the leak (which they promptly did with a minimum of opening ceiling/wall space). They then quoted us a rate to repair the leak, and then proceeded to do a fine job. Highly recommend.

The plumbing at our rental house backed up and caused a flood. We hired a local roto-rooter company to come out and clear the line - lots of money but at least they were fast. Two weeks later, our tenants called - basement flooded again and they weren't happy. It was a Saturday and I was out of town. Based on these reviews, I called Ben's Plumbing. Ben called me back within 15 mins. He explained that the costs on the weekend were much higher - but he could stop by the house and see if he could make a temporary fix to hold until Monday. And he did! Then Monday his plumber snaked our line, put a camera down, and found the original roto-rooter guys only cleared the line to a point - creating a jam just beyond that point. From start to finish, Ben kept me informed, the costs were very reasonable, and the work was professional. Plus, he's a really nice guy. Ben's the guy to call!

Have used this service a number of times. This weekend my water heater started leaking and since it was almost 18 years old, clearly needed replacing. Did not have time for multiple estimates but I got two estimates. Ben's crew came out on a Sunday morning early and finished in a timely fashion. They even came in under their original estimate. The other estimate was several hundred dollars more and would have Ben several days later. I am very happy with the service and the water heater heats up faster than my old one.

"Excellent experience! I had a backed up line, and Nick came out and did a thorough job. He explained the situation in laymen's terminology, showed me the issues via video, and solved the problem. I would definitely recommend him to others"
