How can I fix a frozen pipe safely without causing damage?

Turn off the home’s main water valve first. Open nearby faucets to relieve pressure. Warm the frozen section slowly with a hair dryer or warm towels. Do not use open flames or high‑heat tools. If a pipe has split or you can’t locate the freeze, keep the water off and call a pro. WireNut provides frozen and burst pipe services in Colorado Springs, including shut‑off, safe thawing, and repair, often same day with stocked trucks for one‑visit solutions.

Quick checks:

  • Look for bulging pipe or frost lines.
  • Check crawlspaces and exterior walls.
