Da Vinci’s Best Plumbing Fixes Frozen Pipes

When the temperature drops, frozen pipes can strike without warning. If you turn on a faucet and only get a trickle—or nothing at all—it’s a sign your pipes may be frozen. The longer you wait, the greater the risk of a burst that could cause costly water damage.

Da Vinci’s Best Plumbing is here to help. Our licensed plumbers can safely thaw your pipes and repair any damage before it gets worse.

Step 2 – Turn Off Your Water Supply

Find your home’s main water shut-off valve and close it. This stops pressure from building inside the frozen pipe, reducing the risk of a burst before we arrive.


Step 3 – Gently Warm the Pipe (if it’s Accessible)

If you can see the frozen section and it’s easy to reach, warm it gradually:

  • Use a hair dryer or space heater on a low setting.
  • Never use an open flame or propane torch.
  • Keep the faucet open to relieve pressure as the ice melts.

If you can’t find the frozen area, wait for our plumber—forcing heat in the wrong place can make the situation worse.


Step 4 – Open Cabinets and Warm the Room

Allow warmer air to circulate around plumbing under sinks or near exterior walls. You can also raise your thermostat slightly until help arrives.


Step 5 – Prevent Future Freezing

After we’ve thawed your pipes, we’ll help you:

  • Insulate exposed plumbing.
  • Seal drafts near water lines.
  • Keep a steady indoor temperature during cold snaps.

A few small steps now can save you from major repairs later.

I wad very impressed with the customer service, and price. Would definitely recommend to everyone if you want the job done Wright, on time, at a great price go with Davinci's Best Plumbing.
We used Da Vinci’s Best Plumbing for a kitchen sink repair, and they did a great job. The technician was very professional and took the time to explain all the available options along with their pricing. After completing the repair, he double-checked his work and made sure everything was functioning properly. I was very satisfied with the service. Thank you, Aaron and Da Vinci's Best Plumbing team.
These guys are absolutely amazing. We had a leaking pipe in our crawl space—and when I say crawl space, I mean tiny, tight, and complicated. Aaron could not have made the process any easier. He was brilliant, incredibly transparent, and so helpful every step of the way. He spent over 10 hours on the job and never once made us feel rushed or in the dark. We truly could not have asked for a better experience. We’re so grateful and would highly recommend DaVinci’s Best Plumbing to anyone.
I was trying to repair a leaking valve in my bathroom pretty late at night and realized the problem was beyond my (meager) skills. Luckily they answered their phone and sent someone right away who was able to diagnose and fix the problem within 15 minutes. Well worth the peace of mind knowing my bathroom wasn't going to flood overnight!
We found our plumbing repair provider! We were scheduled right away with an appointment and had several issues looked at and corrected. Aaron was knowledgeable and went above and beyond as well as explaining costs and procedures to both of us. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend DaVinci's AND Aaron to anyone looking for a good plumbing company.
Aaron was first-class. He stuck with our problem until solved.
Prompt. Professional. Friendly. Affordable. Excellent job. Respectful. Thoughtful. Fast... what more can I say. My new go to for plumbing or ?
Wonderful service. And he was so gentle with my mother talking with her while he worked. Work was done professionally and things were explained as needed. Different estimates were g, explained and adjusted as the job changed once the diagnostic was done. Will do business with again. But hopefully not, you know
Will definitely refer to others.
