What Causes Burst Pipes?

In colder climates, burst pipes are often the result of freezing water in the pipes. However, in Florida, we don’t experience such cold temperatures, and our burst pipes are caused by different issues. Here are two of the most common issues that result in burst pipe repair:

  • Clogged Drains: Letting a drain get clogged and failing to repair it will cause pressure to build behind the clog. Eventually, the pipe won’t be able to handle the pressure, and it will rupture.
  • Corroded Pipes: Using chemical drain cleaners on your pipes leads to corrosion inside the pipe. The chemicals used in these DIY drain cleaners are so harsh they create weak spots in the pipe that are prone to rupture. Pipe corrosion is why we always discourage homeowners from using chemical drain cleaners.
  • Shifting Soil: Shifting soil can cause stress on underground water pipes, leading to cracks, leaks, and burst pipes.

What to Do Immediately After Noticing Pipe Bursts

Nobody enjoys a plumbing emergency, especially when it involves a burst pipe! At Service Plumbing, we understand the stress a leaking or burst pipe can cause. Here’s a quick guide to get you started while we race to the rescue:

  • Turn Off the Water Supply: This is the most crucial step! Locate your main water shut-off valve, typically near the curb or where the water enters your house. Turn the valve clockwise until it stops completely.
  • Contain the Leak (if possible): If the burst isn’t major, place a bucket or pan under the leak to catch dripping water. This will help minimize water damage.
  • Minimize Water Usage: Shut off any non-essential water sources like dishwashers or washing machines to prevent further pressure on the plumbing system.
  • Call Service Plumbing: We’re available 24/7 for plumbing emergencies. Don’t hesitate to reach out – the sooner we get there, the faster we can address the pipe damage and get your water flowing smoothly again.

While it is possible to repipe a home yourself, it is not recommended, as it can be a difficult and dangerous process. Repiping a home requires working with water and pipes, which can easily lead to accidents if not done correctly. It is best to leave this job to the professionals.

If your water pressure is low, you may need to call a plumber to have your water pressure checked. Low water pressure can be caused by a variety of factors, such as a clogged water filter or a leaky faucet. It’s important to address low water pressure as soon as possible, as it can lead to water waste and increased energy costs.

It is recommended that you clean your drains every six months. However, if water is backing up into the tub, sink, or toilet in your home when you flush it, then you need to call a plumber right away to clean the drain. If water backs up into your sink then it’s probably coming from your shower and vice versa. Cleaning out the lines will prevent water from backing up into your home.

There are a few effective ways to clear a grease-clogged drain.

  • Use boiling water and dish soap to break up grease buildup.
  • Pour water mixed with baking soda into the drain, then pour vinegar on top of it to get a chemical reaction that breaks down grease.
  • Drain cleaners can also remove water buildup and hard water scale.
  • Plumbers recommend using a water-powered mechanical drain cleaner to clear clogs altogether. These machines are easy to use and clear away any type of clog quickly.

 

For a badly clogged drain, you may need to hire a professional plumber who can clear out the drain with special equipment.

Water heaters come in a variety of sizes, and the size you need depends on how much water your household uses. Here are some general water heater size guidelines:

  • If you use less than 40 gallons of water per day, a 40- or 50-gallon water heater will be large enough.
  • If you use between 40 and 80 gallons of water per day, a water heater with a capacity of 60 or 80 gallons will probably be required.
  • If you use over 80 gallons of water per day, an 85-gallon water heater should provide an adequate supply.

 

Note that these are general guidelines only; how much water your household actually uses may vary. To be sure you have the right water heater size, consult with a plumbing professional.
