Freezing weather in the Midlands
Cold snaps are rare here, so many homes are not ready for them. In the December 2022 freeze, plumbers across the Midlands were swamped with calls. If a freeze is coming, open cabinet doors under sinks, let faucets drip, and know where your shut-off is. See our frozen tankless heater page.
Repairs
Depending on the damage, we repair the broken section or replace the run of pipe. If the pipe is in a wall or ceiling, we will tell you what has to be opened up.
