Before a Frozen Line Begins Leaking

Avoid forcing a frozen valve or pipe. The plumbing trade handles the pipe, while a restoration crew handles any water damage.

Turn off fixtures and note the water meter reading. Movement with no known use can suggest a hidden leak, which a plumber should assess.

How Vacant Home Frozen Pipe Water Cleanup Works in Holyoke

1. Remove the pooled water

   A wet carpet may need repeated passes to pull water from the backing and pad.

2. Trace damp materials

   Wall cavities beside a split pipe are checked for absorbed water.

3. Expose trapped moisture

   Wet wallboard that cannot dry in place is taken out before equipment runs.

4. Verify the dry-out

   Drying is completed against measured goals for the materials and local conditions.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

A thaw leak may keep dripping after the valve closes because water is trapped in the assembly. The crew checks the full path and dries affected materials.

• Close the main water valve before walking through the property.
• Avoid rooms with wet electrical equipment or sagging ceilings.
• Ask a plumber to stop and address each damaged pipe.
• Photograph every affected room before contents are moved.
• Keep a record of when the water was discovered.
