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.

Very quick response. Even worked late to get my floor drain clear. Knew exactly what to do the second he saw the floor drain. These folks are pros. If you’re a landlord and need a responsive team that’s fairly priced- these are your guys.

Jason Maxwell came out to check my water heater. He was able to come out the same day that I called. He inspected my corroded water heater and told me it needed to be replaced, before it made a bigger mess than it had made already. The whole tank was really rusty and corroded and water was in the tray. He checked on the price and said he had good news and bad news. The good news was the tank was under warranty and the bad news was installation was $1400. Well...I don't have the skills to install a water heater and told Jason to go ahead. He had to go pickup a water heater, but was only gone about 30 to 40 minutes. He had the water draining out of the old water heater while he went to get the new one. He took the old water heater out and installed the new one and cleaned up the little bit of water that dripped on the floor. Ran water to get the air out of the lines. I asked Jason if he could show me how to change the filter in my Nuvo water softener. He said, "sure". This system was really different from our old one and I bought the wrong filter, so I'm Really glad he helped me out. It only to Jason about 3 hours total, including having to go pickup the new water heater. I asked him some questions about tankless system, because I was curious. He was very knowledgeable and didn't mind answering my questions. We've had good luck with Atherton Plumbing and have used them several times. We've been pleased with all the plumbers.

My shower cartridge was worn out and the shower wouldn't shut off so I had to shut the water off to the house. They sent Macen to take care of it and he was excellent, thus the 5 star rating. He was very respectful of our home and knew exactly what to do and had the new parts on his truck. Done in an hour.....

I had detected a problem with my water pressure for 4 months or so and called Atherton and their Lead Technician Jerry Stover came to my home and my water heater was completely clogged from the water softener residue. Water Softener had sent all it's material to the Hot Water heater and now I had no running water and tank wouldn't drain....Jerry knew exactly what to do and made sure EVERY toilet, sink, bathtub, washer, Everything that receives water in the 3 story home was working and stayed after hours to make sure.....water softener was getting some age and I should have called sooner...As far as Atherton and Jerry Stover...If there was something beyond 5 stars I would leave it. Now I know what to do in the future, everything was explained

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!

We had a stopped kitchen drain that came on suddenly as family dinner was being prepared. I tried plunging the blockage, but got nowhere. Using Atherton's convenient online service request form to schedule an appointment, and had a plumber here at 8 AM the next morning! Ryan was efficient, pleasant, and informative as he got to work. He was able to feed a snake through the sink drain and clear the clog, which was found about 10 feet down the pipe. He cleared the line for about 40 ft to make sure the clog was gone. He cleaned up the sink area and was gone in about 45 minutes start to finish. And the work is warranted for 90 days. We're VERY happy with the work from Atherton Plumbing.
