Frozen Pipe Water Damage: Extraction and Cleanup by SERVPRO of Jackson/Lacey

1/28/2025 (Permalink)

Frozen pipes leading to water damage in Lakewood New Jersey With years of experience, state-of-the-art equipment, and a dedicated team, we’re here to make water damage “Like it never even happened.”

Winter can be beautiful, but freezing temperatures bring the risk of frozen pipes, which can lead to severe water damage if not addressed quickly. Frozen pipes occur when water inside the pipes freezes, expands, and creates pressure, causing the pipes to crack or burst. When this happens, water can flood your home or business, leading to costly repairs and potential health hazards. SERVPRO of Jackson/Lacey is Here to Help® you manage these emergencies with professional water extraction and cleanup services.

Why Do Frozen Pipes Cause Damage?
When water freezes, it expands, creating significant pressure on the pipe walls. Pipes in unheated areas, such as basements, crawl spaces, and attics and outer walls are especially vulnerable. Once a pipe bursts, water flows freely, soaking drywall, flooring, furniture, and personal belongings. The longer the water sits, the greater the risk of structural damage and mold growth.
