Plumbing Company Victoria MN | Call RD Floor Drains

A professional plumbing inspection allows us to assess the condition and slope of your sewer lines. We can identify low spots or minor damage where water may collect and freeze during our harsh Minnesota winters, forming an ice blockage. By catching these issues early, we can recommend targeted repairs or preventative measures, such as pipe insulation or jetting, to ensure proper drainage and help you avoid a messy and disruptive sewer backup.

If you suspect frozen pipes, first turn off the main water supply to prevent potential flooding if a pipe has burst. Then, call a professional like RD Floor Drains immediately. Do not use open flames to thaw pipes, as this is a fire hazard. Our experts use safe, controlled methods and specialized equipment to locate the freeze and thaw the pipes properly, minimizing the risk of damage. A follow-up inspection is often recommended to check for any stress or cracks caused by the freezing.

Floor drains in basements and garages are critical escape routes for water. During winter thaws or if an interior pipe freezes and bursts, this water needs somewhere to go to prevent flooding. A clogged or improperly functioning floor drain can lead to significant water damage. Our inspections include checking that your floor drains are clear, properly trapped to prevent sewer gases, and connected to a functioning drainage system, ensuring they are ready to protect your home when you need them most.
