Water Damage From Freezing

12/29/2022 (Permalink)

We may not think about it much in Southern California, but one of the major causes of water damage in the winter time is from frozen pipes. Uninsulated pipes and freezing temperatures can lead to ice forming inside the pipe. The expanding ice will break the pipe from the inside, and when the ice thaws you can have major problems. A pressurized water line can flood a home or business in minutes. 

Right now the whole country is experiencing incredibly cold weather as we move into the heart of the winter months. SERVPRO of Santee / Lakeside highly encourages everyone to verify if they have the proper insulation on their water lines with this cold weather that we have been having. Proper prevention can save you thousands of Dollars!
