What to Do When a Pipe Freezes or Breaks

A faucet that produces only a trickle may indicate frozen plumbing. Metro Water Services recommends leaving the faucet open while carefully applying heat to the suspected frozen section. As water begins moving through the pipe, the flow can help melt the remaining ice.

For safe pipe thawing, Metro Water Services identifies these heat sources:

Electric heating pads wrapped around the pipe
Electric hair dryers directed at the frozen section
Portable space heaters positioned away from combustible materials
Towels soaked in hot water and wrapped around the pipe

Don’t use an open flame to thaw plumbing. A blowtorch, propane heater, charcoal stove, or similar device can create a fire hazard and damage the pipe.

Limit Water Damage After a Pipe Break

If a pipe has broken, close the property’s main water valve to limit the release of water. Don’t attempt to operate the water meter yourself. Metro Water Services warns that handling a meter during cold weather can damage it.

Frozen and broken pipes inside a property are private plumbing issues, so Metro Water Services directs property owners to call a plumber. Contact us if the frozen area can’t be located, reached, or safely thawed, or if water is escaping from a damaged pipe.

Signs of Frozen & Burst Pipes in Nashville

A frozen pipe restricts or stops water flow. A burst pipe has developed a break that allows water to escape into the surrounding area. A faucet that suddenly delivers a weak trickle during freezing weather can be an early sign of ice inside the plumbing.

More than one pipe may freeze during the same cold snap. If the frozen section can’t be found, accessed, or thawed safely, Metro Water Services recommends contacting a licensed plumber.

Common freeze locations in homes include areas with greater exposure to outside temperatures or limited heated air. Metro Water Services identifies these problem areas:

Outdoor hose bibs and pool plumbing
Unheated basements and crawl spaces
Attics and garages
Plumbing inside kitchen cabinets
Pipes along poorly insulated exterior walls

Commercial Plumbing at Risk

Commercial properties may have exposed sprinkler lines and backflow prevention assemblies, which keep contaminated water from flowing backward into the public water supply. Severe freezes have caused widespread pipe breaks and damage to these assemblies across Nashville.

A burst line may cause visible water, damp building materials, reduced pressure, or unusual sounds behind a wall. Close the main water valve if it’s safe, then call us about the private plumbing emergency. Don’t handle the municipal meter.

Freeze Prevention for Nashville Properties

Preparation before a severe cold spell can reduce plumbing exposure in homes and commercial buildings. Metro Water Services recommends checking areas where water lines pass through unheated or exterior-facing spaces.

Take these steps before and during freezing weather:

Close garage doors: Keep doors shut where water supply lines run through the garage.
Protect crawl spaces: Close crawl space vents before temperatures fall sharply.
Cover outdoor spigots: Add protective covers to exposed hose bibs before severe cold arrives.
Open cabinet doors: Let warmer indoor air circulate around plumbing beneath sinks.
Let faucets drip: Maintain a small flow of water during the coldest conditions.
Keep the thermostat steady: Use a consistent setting and don’t set it lower than 55°F while away.

Exterior-wall plumbing, sprinkler lines, pool supply lines, and backflow prevention assemblies deserve extra attention before a freeze. Property owners should also locate the main water valve in advance so they can reach it quickly if a pipe breaks.

FAQs About Frozen Pipe Repair in Nashville

What should I do first if I discover a frozen pipe in my house?

Keep the affected faucet slightly open to relieve internal pressure as ice begins melting, and locate your main water shutoff valve in case the pipe splits while thawing.

Why do pipes usually burst when they start to thaw rather than when they freeze?

Water expands as it turns to ice, creating immense pressure between the ice blockage and the closed faucet. This trapped pressure forces pipe walls apart until melting releases the water.

Can you repair frozen PEX, copper, and PVC pipes?

Yes, our technicians are equipped to safely thaw and repair all common residential piping materials, including copper, PEX, CPVC, and PVC supply or drain lines.

How can I help prevent my Nashville pipes from freezing during future cold snaps?

Insulate exposed pipes in crawlspaces and garages, seal exterior foundation drafts, disconnect outdoor garden hoses, and let indoor faucets drip slightly during extreme overnight freezes.
