Common Causes

What Causes Burst Pipes?

Burst pipes are so common because they can happen for a variety of reasons.

Blockages & Pressure

Clogs inside your pipes can grow big enough to block the flow of water, causing pressure to build up until the pipe gives way.

Old, Worn-Out Pipes

Aging pipes weaken over time and become far more likely to crack or burst, especially older galvanized steel lines.

Remodeling Damage

Accidental damage from homeowners during remodeling, renovations, and landscaping is a common and preventable cause.

Extreme Weather

Heavy rainfall, strong winds, and shifting ground during storms can all put unexpected stress on your piping.

Tree Roots

Roots naturally seek out water and can grow into pipes at joints or small cracks, expanding until the line fails.

Neglected Maintenance

Going too long between service visits lets small issues go unnoticed until they become an urgent, costly emergency.

Prevention

Can You Avoid Burst Pipes?

Some plumbing issues are unavoidable, but being mindful about what goes down your drains can go a long way toward preventing emergencies.

Watch what you wash down: Avoid washing large pieces of food, grease, and hair down the drain whenever possible.

Install mesh drain covers: These guarantee that no large items make their way into your pipes.

Call for regular servicing: Annual maintenance on your piping system helps identify potential issues before they arise.

Trouble With Frozen Pipes?

Frozen pipes wreak havoc on many homes. Without prompt repair, they can burst and create a mess that's costly to clean up. Watch for these warning signs during cold periods.

Little or no water from the faucet

Frost buildup on visible pipes

Strange odors or sounds

Damp drywall

Persistent plumbing issues

Restoring water flow to a frozen pipe: Apply heat with warm towels, a hairdryer, or a space heater. Keep the faucet on while warming so the ice can thaw and trickle out. Continue applying heat until water pressure is restored.

Shut off your home's main water valve immediately to stop the flow, then call us. Turning off water to the affected area (if possible) and moving valuables away from the leak can also help limit damage while we're on the way.
We prioritize burst pipe calls and aim to get a plumber to your home as quickly as possible. Call 225-372-2444 and we'll let you know our current response time.
Yes. As water freezes inside a pipe, it expands and builds pressure that can crack or split the pipe. The damage often isn't obvious until the ice thaws and water starts leaking or spraying out.
You can apply gentle heat with a hairdryer, warm towels, or a space heater while keeping the faucet on to let the ice thaw and trickle out. Never use an open flame. If you can't find the freeze point or water doesn't return, call us before it bursts.
If you have old, corroded pipes, recurring leaks in different spots, or multiple bursts over time, partial or whole-home repiping is often more cost-effective than repeated repairs. We'll assess your system honestly and recommend what makes sense.
Yes — we serve Baton Rouge and all of East Baton Rouge Parish, along with surrounding communities. Call us to confirm coverage for your address.
