Why Pipes Burst & What Can You Do to Prevent It?

A burst pipe is a serious issue that requires immediate attention. Every minute that goes by is water and money down the drain. Also, water damage to your property can run in the hundreds or thousands of dollars, not to mention the mold you might get. Here are the main reasons pipes burst and how you can prevent it.

  • Clogs: When pipes clog, the pressure builds and can lead to a rupture.
  • Freezing: Freezing and expanding pipes are one of the most common reasons for failure.

To prevent burst pipes, make sure that pipes are well-insulated for winter and let the water slowly drip to prevent freezing. Also, keep your drains free-flowing with professional drain cleaning at least once a year.
