Frozen Pipe Burst Cleanup in Saint Charles, MO

Winter in Saint Charles, MO can be brutal, with temperatures plummeting below freezing for days. This cold snap puts your plumbing at risk. When water freezes inside a pipe, it expands, creating immense pressure that can rupture copper, PVC, and PEX piping in an instant.

The Chaos of a Burst Pipe

A burst pipe isn't a small drip; it can release hundreds of gallons of water into your home in minutes. This often happens in:

• Unheated basements or crawlspaces
• Exterior walls with poor insulation
• Kitchen cabinets on outside walls
• Attics

Immediate Steps to Minimize Damage

1. Shut Off Water: Locate your main water shut-off valve immediately to stop the flow.
2. Drain Faucets: Open faucets to relieve pressure in the system.
3. Call for Restoration: Contact Flood Cleanup Pros before mold has a chance to set in.
