FAQs
What are the common causes of pipe bursts?
Common causes of pipe bursts include freezing temperatures, aging pipes, high water pressure, corrosion, shifting soil, tree root intrusion, and pipe blockages. Freezing expands water, while aging weakens pipes. High-pressure strain pipes and corrosion deteriorates material. Shifting soil and tree roots damage pipes, and blockages cause pressure buildup. Regular maintenance helps prevent bursts.
How can I winterize my plumbing system to prevent freezing and bursting?
To winterize your plumbing system and prevent freezing and bursting, insulate exposed pipes, seal any gaps or cracks, disconnect and drain outdoor hoses, close exterior faucets, and open indoor faucets to allow a slow drip. Set the thermostat to a consistent temperature, particularly at night. If youre away, shut off the main water supply and consider using heat tape or a space heater near vulnerable pipes. Proper winterization will ensure your plumbing stays protected during cold weather.
How can I safely thaw a frozen pipe?
To safely thaw a frozen pipe, open faucets connected to the frozen line to relieve the pressure. Use a hairdryer, heat lamp, or hot towels wrapped around the pipe to gradually thaw the ice. Never use an open flame or electrical appliances near the pipe. If unsure, contact a professional plumber for assistance.

I had a plumbing issue and called; they got me on schedule the same day. I was working so the plumber came spoke with my wife and found the issue – he had the problem taken care of in less than 45 minutes. GREAT service and would highly recommend them to anyone needing any service. They are a full-service company, and the pricing was very fair. My wife said the plumber was very nice and explained everything.

They are fantastic, and definitely a company with integrity! They installed a tankless water heater for us and after two years we were having some issues… they came out and very quickly and efficiently fixed the problem and didn’t charge us! They said it was an installation issue and even though it had been over two years, they still wanted to make it right. We are definitely customers for life for this quick, efficient, and honest work!
Grant McMasters
The folks at Russell’s-American Mechanical were very professional and everyone was super helpful. Once the issue was found, the plumber detailed out the work he was going to perform and the cost of the work. The plumber got started and the work was done in a reasonable amount of time. Once the work was completed, the plumber went over other options to help prevent future issues. I was very appreciative of the fact that the plumber went over a variety of different options without trying to sell me on them. Great work all around.
