Frozen Pipes Repair Services in Edmonton

Why Pipes Gets Frozen?

Extremely cold temperatures can also cause damage to your pipes and plumbing systems. In Edmonton, we suffer from winters with harsh temperatures that go well below freezing. These cold days put your pipes at risk for freezing, turning the water into solid ice and causing dangerous blockages.

When the temperatures drop, your pipes may be at risk. If your pipes are not properly insulated, frozen pipes are cause for concern. Once your pipes are frozen, this ice can continue to expand. If this issue is left unresolved, it can cause your pipe to burst or crack.

How to know if you pipe is frozen?

Hose-bibs are the biggest culprit and freeze frequently
The pipes are extremely cold to touch
Frost developed on the pipes
No water flowing from faucets

What You Should Do When Your Pipes Freeze

If you suspect that your pipes are frozen, you first need to shut off your main water valve to take pressure off your pipes and prevent flooding. If you can spot the blockage, you may be able to thaw the ice yourself with the help of a space heater or hairdryer.

Contact our professionals so we can make our way to your home to inspect and thaw the leak and prevent any other damages.

While all poorly-insulated pipes are susceptible to freezing when the temperatures drop dramatically, there are some pipes that freeze more frequently, including:

Exposed pipes
Water supply pipes in unheated areas
Pipes in walls with little to no insulation

This is my second time using the team at capital heating and plumbing and I can honestly say there team has some real hero’s.We had the please of having Jesse Piech as our plumber today he was on time respectable and he even went out of his way to help get the neighbours cat out of a tree on his lunch break I might add all well his pogo went cold( luckily he installed our new range all before lunch so he could warm it up)Capital plumbings team swept and whipped down the area they worked in and cleaned up all the mess and left our home looking even better than when they got there.I would recommend this company to anyone needing service done right with great people it was nice to have trades men with out potty mouths and can clean up after ones self.

It has been two years and we love our John Wood water heater!Tom and his Capital Plumbing install team were quiet, efficient, friendly and cleaned up the area well following install.At the same time, all sinks had an easy-to-use shut-off valve added beneath for safety in case of water emergency, a water line for future refrigerator was installed and they threw in a new, safe hose attachment for the clothes washer to replace the aging rubber. Never even thought of it. You never want a water line to burst!

Great experience. Capital plumbing was able to get me in within 2 days whereas all other plumbing companies I called couldn't get me in until next week. I was late returning Toms call, so he took the liberty of doing an inspection on my home and flagged a couple more issues before fixing the one I called about. Really appreciate his diligence and customer service!

A couple of weeks ago Darren replaced our hot water tank after it burst. Capital was so quick to respond and Darren was very good. He helped with the flood we had from the tank. Within a few hours we had a new water tank installed. Today Daniel came back and did amazingly replacing our sump pump and cleaning our furnace and humidifier. He is very thorough and did a great job explaining our issues. Thanks Capital plumbing and heating for always being there for us and having the best employees.
