Qualified Plumbing Repair in Union Beach, NJ 07735 - Ochs Plumbing & Heating

Yes, absolutely. Our comprehensive plumbing inspections specifically check for vulnerabilities that lead to freezing, such as inadequate insulation on pipes in unheated areas like crawl spaces and garages, and identify outdoor faucets that need winterizing. We'll recommend practical, local solutions to protect your home before the deep freeze sets in.

We sure do. Ice makers, washing machines, and dishwashers all have water supply lines that are susceptible to freezing. Our appliance repair service includes thawing and repairing these lines, checking for cracks or bursts, and ensuring the appliance and its connections are properly insulated to prevent a recurring issue.

First, locate your main water shut-off valve and know how to use it in case a pipe bursts. Then, carefully apply gentle heat (like a hairdryer) to the frozen section if it's accessible. For safety and to prevent damage, we recommend calling us immediately. Our experts can safely thaw pipes, perform a pressure test, and inspect your system for other at-risk areas.
