When the Texas winter takes a sharp turn and temperatures drop below freezing, your home’s plumbing is under an immense amount of stress. In Arlington, where our infrastructure isn't always built for prolonged deep freezes, a frozen pipe can quickly transform from a minor inconvenience into a catastrophic flood.
If you’ve turned on your faucet and only heard a faint trickle—or worse, nothing at all—your pipes are likely frozen. The clock is now ticking. As water freezes, it expands, creating pressure that can reach over 2,000 pounds per square inch, easily shattering copper, PVC, and PEX pipes alike.
If you suspect a frozen pipe, don't wait for the thaw. Thawing is when the most damage occurs.

Why Frozen Pipes are a North Texas Nightmare
In colder climates, pipes are buried deep underground or heavily insulated in heated basements. In Arlington, many of our pipes run through unheated attics, crawlspaces, or against exterior walls with minimal insulation.Common Customer Pain Points & Our Solutions

What to Do While You Wait for Your Plumber
If you have identified a frozen pipe in your Arlington home, follow these steps immediately to mitigate the risk:- Keep the Faucet Open: As you treat a frozen pipe and the ice begins to melt, water will begin to flow through the frozen area. Running water through the pipe will help melt ice in the pipe.
- Locate the Main Shut-off Valve: Be prepared to turn off the water to the entire house if the pipe bursts during the thawing process.
- Apply Heat Safely: You can use an electric heating pad wrapped around the pipe, an electric hair dryer, or a portable space heater (kept away from flammable materials).
- NEVER Use an Open Flame: Never use a blowtorch, kerosene or propane heater, charcoal broiler, or other open flame devices. This is a leading cause of house fires during winter freezes.
- Call the Professionals: Dial +1(888) 357-0829 immediately.
The Danger of the "Silent Burst"
One of the most dangerous aspects of frozen pipes is that you might not know a pipe has burst until the ice thaws. The ice itself acts as a plug. Once the temperature rises, the ice melts, and water begins pouring out of the fracture.This is why we recommend having a professional inspect your plumbing even if you think the pipes have thawed "naturally." We check for:
- Hairline fractures in copper joints.
- Stress marks on PEX piping.
- Slow leaks inside wall cavities that can lead to mold growth.
