Fairfield Frozen Pipe Repair Reviews
Manny was great he never took a break and was so polite and listened to my concerns and questions and cleaned up after himself.
Raps Plumbing & Heating did an excellent job. I spoke with dispatcher Chris who helped me set up my appointment and let me know which technician would be coming over for the diagnostic visit. Technician Marc came over to assess the problem and told me what needed to be done. He also explained everything to me and how he would do. After hearing that I decided to go with Raps Plumbing & Heating for the fix and have Marc to do the job. The next visit technician Marc and Matt came over and performed the job. They were able to do the job quicker than I expected and they didn’t leave any mess behind. I have had a couple service technicians in the past for repairs and fixes and I have to say that I was completely satisfied with the service and work that Marc and Matt did. They are professionals, respectful and they get the job done right.

We offer burst pipe repair in Fairfield CT. If a pipe in your home bursts, there are a number of steps to immediately take. You should first, in all cases, shut down your home's main water supply.

After you've shut down the water, it's time to call a plumber for help with repairing or replacing the burst pipe.
Tips for thawing frozen pipes in Fairfield CT :
- Apply heat to the section of pipe using an electric heating pad wrapped around the pipe, electric hair dryer, a portable space heater (kept away from flammable materials), or by wrapping pipes with towels soaked in hot water.
- Do not use a blowtorch, kerosene or propane heater, charcoal stove or other open flame device.
- Do not let a heating pad, hair dryer, or other electrical device come into contact with water.
- Do not leave any heat source unattended at any time.
- Keep the faucet open. As you treat the frozen pipe and the frozen area begins to melt, water will begin to flow through the frozen area. Running water through the pipe will help melt more ice in the pipe.
