About JTS Plumbing & Heating in Easton, PA

Our thorough inspection identifies vulnerable areas in your plumbing system, such as pipes in unheated crawl spaces or exterior walls. We can then recommend and perform targeted insulation, heat tape installation, or other preventative measures before winter hits, significantly reducing your risk of the costly damage and inconvenience of frozen pipes.

Absolutely. A single joint leak can be a symptom of wider issues like corrosion, shifting foundations, or water pressure problems. During our inspection, we examine all accessible pipe joints, connections, and fixtures to uncover any other weaknesses. This proactive approach helps us address the root cause and prevent a small leak from turning into a major repair.

First, safely turn off your home's main water supply to minimize potential flooding if the pipe has burst. Then, gently apply heat to the frozen section using a hairdryer or warm towels—never an open flame. Opening faucets can relieve pressure as the ice thaws. Call us immediately for expert assessment and repair to ensure the pipe is properly thawed and inspected for damage.
