When the weather begins to turn cold, it is crucial to prepare your home, commercial office and plumbing system(s) for freezing temperatures. The PNW area that we service receives 2-4 months of very cold weather, and freezing pipes and drain systems are not uncommon in Eastern WA and Northern ID.
That is why it is important to call a plumbing specialist like Bulldog Rooter with over 15 years of frozen pipe repair and prevention, to not only help with repairs when your pipes and system begins to freeze, but also to help prevent any future freezing and damages from occurring! Get in touch with the plumbing professionals today to get started!
When the temperature outside drops below 32 degrees fahrenheit, the outside of your pipes will begin to freeze, but once it becomes even colder, the inside of your pipes will freeze, and then eventually the water inside! This will cause your pipes to expand (water expands when it freezes) and eventually cause fractures or large breaks in your pipes. The breaks in your pipes and plumbing system can cause hundreds of gallons of water to leak throughout your system - costing you thousands of dollars in repairs.

Taking preventative measures during the warmer months is the best way to mitigate any damages that may occur during the freezing cold months in winter. How does Bulldog Rooter service the Eastern WA and Northern ID communities with frozen pipe prevention? Listed below are some of the measures Bulldog Rooter takes to ensure your pipes stay above freezing temperatures so they do not burst or leak:
Pipe/Plumbing System Diagnosis - We run a plumbing system diagnosis to determine how old your system or pipes are, how they have weathered over the years, and whether they have been properly protected from the environment. We can evaluate the lifespan and determine where freezing may occur.
Pipe/Plumbing Insulation - We provide pipe insulation for various plumbing systems in your home or commercial office. Fluctuating temperatures damage your pipes, especially those exposed to weather. This insulation will keep your pipes at a consistent temperature and reduce the chances of freezing.
Install Equipment - Bulldog Rooter provides plumbing system equipment that maintains the temperature of your pipes and system to ensure there are no freezes, even in the winter time. Ask about heat cable systems for your residential or commercial space!
