How can I fix a frozen pipe safely without causing damage?

You can safely thaw a frozen pipe by relieving pressure and warming it slowly. Avoid open flames to prevent fire or pipe damage. Quick steps:

  • Shut off water to the affected line.
  • Open nearby faucets to release pressure.
  • Warm the pipe with a hair dryer or warm towels.
  • If you see a crack or leak, shut off the main and call us. We offer same-day pipe thawing and burst repairs, plus prevention advice and leak detection/alarm systems in Scranton and nearby. <br/>
