What Causes Burst Pipes?

Burst pipes often occur due to a combination of environmental and structural factors. Common causes include:

  • Freezing Temperatures: When exposed to freezing weather, water inside the pipes can freeze, expand, and cause the pipe to crack. This is especially common with outdoor or poorly insulated pipes.
  • Aging Pipes: Over time, pipes may weaken due to wear and tear, making them more susceptible to bursts.
  • Tree Roots and Ground Shifts: Aggressive tree roots can wrap around underground pipes, cracking or breaking them. Similarly, ground movement from construction or natural shifts can cause pipes to snap.
  • High Water Pressure: Excessive water pressure can strain pipes, leading to leaks and eventual bursts.

By understanding these causes, you can take proactive steps to protect your plumbing system and reduce the risk of future emergencies.

How to Prevent Burst Pipes

Preventing burst pipes requires regular maintenance and attention to your plumbing system. Here are some practical steps to avoid costly damage:

  1. Insulate Exposed Pipes: Use foam, rubber, or fiberglass insulation to protect pipes from temperature fluctuations. This is especially important for outdoor pipes or those in unheated areas of your home.
  2. Monitor Water Pressure: Install a pressure regulator to ensure water pressure stays within safe levels.
  3. Run Water During Freezing Weather: If you’ll be away during winter, leave a slow trickle of water running through your pipes to prevent freezing.
  4. Schedule Regular Inspections: Have your plumbing system inspected annually to identify and address potential issues before they escalate.

Taking these preventative measures can save you time, money, and the stress of dealing with an emergency.

I use Atherton for all of my plumbing needs and they always are very nice and honest. I appreciate all the care they put into fixing the multitude of issues I have had in my home from the usual plumbing issue to sump pump issues and install, to major leaks and beyond!

Placed the service call to have my pedestal sink leak resolved. While Luke was here, I had him hook up the Omigo seat and replace the strainers in my sink with ones that fit properly. I spent more than I had anticipated but I'm super happy to have these issues resolved. BTW Luke was clear about the pricing so there were no suprises. Been a long time happy and loyal Atherton customer as they redid most of the plumbing in 2022.

Had to have a toilet replaced. Excellent and quick service- they were at my house in a few hours to provide a detailed estimate, and the next day to install. Did not try to push me into a getting a new toilet. Instead, they walked me through and provided a bid for my 3 options so I could make an informed decision. High quality materials (I did a comparison of product at big box stores) were used. Would definitely recommend to friends and neighbors. Macen and Dillion were great! EDIT- needed a kitchen drain unclogged and called Atherton again. Ryan showed up and took care of it. He did not try to oversell me on something he assessed that I probably didn’t need given my issue, which is key for me. He explained what he would be doing and also took the time to explain that it is usually dish soap that causes sludge build up over time and to use a vinegar water solution every so often to break down the soap residue. 90 day guarantee- so if the drain clog comes back within that time, it will be taken care of. Will continue to use Atherton again for any future needs.

Had a great experience. Were we given a time of 12:00pm-3:00pm. A little after 11:00am Jason called asking if I would like him to arrive earlier as he was available or at the 12:00 window given. I happily took the earlier time. Jason even gave me an estimate time of his new arrival. With the inspection, cost estimate was given with clear explanation of what was needed and the options. Jason quickly fixed the issue and ensured all work fixed the issue we were having. Understanding of my still working from home, he was quite yet efficient. Thank you for being so great Jason!

I had them come over and cut out 2 abandoned gas pipes from my home. Tech was good, job done quickly. Im not any type of plumber, so I can't comment too much on pricing, but I was expecting to pay closer to $500 to cut 2 pipes and cap them, but it was $900. It was good work, I was just surprised it cost so much.

Water heater pilot went out after my basement flooded. Tried lighting it multiple times with no effect. Went a couple of weeks without hot water. Tech came out turned the gas on and it lit after a few attempts. Gave it 30 minutes and checked my water pressure and quality in the interim. High pressure and hard water, gave me some suggestions and a quote but didn't press.

We had service on 5/28/26. Luke installed a shutoff valve on the water line to the fridge. This was done in preparation of receiving a new fridge the following week. Luke did a great job, re-working the line and attaching the valve to the wall, and fastening it for easy install of new line from the new fridge. Thanks for your ingenuity and explaination of the process.

If it were possible to give 10 stars, JASON MAXWELL of Atherton Plumbing would be the recipient.I had a major leak from an old water heater. I panicked and my first thought was of Jason who had come out on another emergency about four years ago.. He worked diligently until he solved the problem. I am so grateful that he was available when I called . He came the same day, assessed the situation, gave me a quote, helped with paperwork and proceeded to get the job done within three hours of his arrival. Jason is the ultimate professional, Very detailed, courteous,arrived on time, removed the old water heater, installed the new one, placed everything back as it was.. If you are ever in need of a plumber, you will never go wrong with Jason. I highly recommend JASON MAXWELL and ATHERTON PLUMBING..

We contracted with Atherton for installation of a Kraus double kitchen sink, Moen faucet, and Insinkerator disposal. George Strietz was the technician who performed the installation. He is a very experienced, highly skilled plumber who did an amazing job! He removed the old units, installed new drain traps, replaced old chrome/galvanized fittings with PVC, and installed the new units. Everything was done meticulously! When he was finished he cleaned everything up and took away the old units and boxes. We are so pleased with the entire process. His estimate was timely, price was reasonable, scheduling was perfect. We highly recommend Atherton and will certainly call them for any future plumbing issues.

He is a competent and professional individual providing service excellent service to me, once again.
