Burst pipes in older homes during winter freezes
Why it happens here
Most Forest Drive homes were built with copper or galvanized supply lines that are now decades old. A hard freeze pushes the metal past its limit, and the pipe splits, often in an exterior wall or a crawl space where you cannot see it.
Our approach
We shut off the water, extract the spill, and use a thermal imaging camera to trace the leak path. We dry the wall cavity and check the adjacent rooms for hidden moisture before we close anything up.
