Frequently Asked Questions

Frozen Pipe Thawing & Burst Pipe Repair in Jackson FAQs

Real answers from our licensed technicians serving Jackson, WY.

What should I do immediately if a pipe bursts in my Jackson home? +

First, immediately turn off your main water shutoff valve (usually located in the basement, utility closet, or near the water meter). Then open faucets to relieve remaining pressure and call our emergency dispatch team at (888) 205-7875.

Why do pipes freeze so easily in Jackson, WY? +

With winter temperatures dropping to -20°F to -40°F with windchill in Jackson, pipes running through unheated crawlspaces, exterior walls, or poorly insulated rim joists freeze rapidly. Wyoming's frost line is 6.0 feet, so shallow lines are especially vulnerable.

Can I thaw frozen pipes myself with a torch or hair dryer? +

Never use an open flame torch—this is the #1 cause of house fires during winter freezes! While a hair dryer can work on visible exposed interior pipes, it cannot reach hidden wall lines. Our commercial thawing units thaw lines safely through electrical resistance.

How do I prevent my pipes from freezing during extreme cold snaps? +

Keep your thermostat set to at least 65°F day and night, leave cabinet doors under sinks open to circulate warm air, let faucets drip slightly on extreme sub-zero nights, and ensure exterior hose bibbs have hoses disconnected. For permanent protection, call us to install heat trace cables.
