Northford, CT Frozen Pipe Repair
Have A Broken or Frozen Pipe? Our Team Can Help!
Connecticut can experience harsh winters, and every time you experience your faucets not releasing enough water, chances are that the water in your pipelines has frozen. Water expands when it freezes, and it can result in some major plumbing issues. With non-insulated pipes, there is the risk of water freezing and creating pressure blocks – this can eventually lead to leaks, cracks, and even the pipeline bursting.
Luckily, you have a plumber you can trust ready to unfreeze your pipes in no time. A-Team Plumbing & Drain provides exceptional, reliable service at any time of day. 24/7 emergency service is one of our many benefits, so you can have peace of mind even in the midst of a crisis.
Prevent Frozen Pipes in CT: Tips & Tricks
Water pipelines that are directly exposed to extreme weather conditions, like the winters in Connecticut, become prone to freezing and causing damage. Before the winter season arrives, make sure your pipes are covered and protected. Water sprinkler lines, outdoor hoses, plumbing in the basement and garage, and uninsulated outdoor pipes are most vulnerable to freezing when the weather gets cold.
It’s important that you notice the water activity in your plumbing before the issue gets from bad to worse and ends up costing you thousands of dollars in repair.

Act Quickly
Once you are aware that a pipe is frozen, you must act quickly to thaw the pipe. Depending on the location of the pipe and your level of expertise, you can attempt to thaw the pipe yourself but we highly recommend contacting a licensed plumber.
It is important to thaw the pipe as soon as possible because it has the potential to burst and cause extensive damage to your property.
I had called A Team to come and clear a drain in my bathroom sinks. But since Andy was at the house I asked him about repairing a shower faucet valve that had leaked inside the wall. Andy looked over what he would need to do the job and then sat down and wrote out a complete list of job estimates depending on how far I wanted him to complete the job.
After deciding on the option that would not only do the shower valve but also replaced the section of the drain pipe that had the shut off valve in it.
I scheduled a date to have the work done and not only was I sent an e mail to alert me they were on their way but also a picture of Andy that would be coming to my house. He showed right on time and got straight to work.
The entire job was completed in just a few hours and looks fabulous.
Once I get the walls closed back in he says he will come back and finish the covers that go over the shower valve and spout.
I have nothing but good things to say about A Team Plumbing and especially Andy . He was easy to work with, completely explained what was needed to do the job and did such a professional repair. If I need a plumber in the future I won't hesitate to call again.- Michael K.
