Thaw it before it splits.
Frozen lines thawed safely, split pipes repaired and exposed plumbing insulated so the next cold snap does not become a flood.
- Thaw: Controlled heat, never an open flame
- Check: Look for splits before pressure returns
- Prevent: Insulation, heat tape and rerouting
What it is, and why it matters.
Middle Tennessee does not get long winters, which is exactly why the occasional deep freeze catches homes off guard. Pipes in exterior walls, crawl spaces, garages and attics freeze first, and a pipe that is frozen can split without anyone knowing until it thaws.
If you have a frozen line, we thaw it safely and check for splits before the water comes back on at full pressure in your Nashville home. Then we fix the reason it froze with insulation, heat tape, rerouting, foam covers on hose bibs and a plan for the next cold night.
Four things done right.

Frozen Pipe Repair and Prevention: common questions
How do I keep pipes from freezing on a cold night?
Open cabinet doors under sinks on exterior walls, let a faucet drip, disconnect and cover outdoor hose bibs and keep the thermostat at a steady temperature. For long absences, call us about draining the system.
Is it safe to thaw a pipe with a torch?
No. Open flame can ignite framing and damage fittings. We use controlled heat sources, and a plumber should check the pipe afterward for splits.
