How can I fix a frozen pipe safely without causing damage?
The safest way is to have a pro thaw the pipe and check for leaks so you don’t crack it. Ken’s Plumbing provides frozen-pipe thawing, repairs, and prevention, with 24/7/364 emergency service in areas like Greenville and Spartanburg. Exact steps depend on the pipe’s location and condition.
Quick checks:
- If you see bulging, cracking, or water, shut off the main water supply.
- Gently warm the area indoors and avoid high-heat or open-flame methods.
- Schedule a professional thaw, inspection, and any needed repairs.
