Frozen Pipe Repair in San Luis Obispo, CA

When winter temperatures drop, the risk of frozen pipes in your San Luis Obispo, CA home increases. At Wighton's Plumbing, Heating, and Air Conditioning, we understand the urgency and importance of addressing frozen pipe issues promptly to prevent further damage and costly repairs. As the longest-running home services business on the coast, we have been providing trusted comfort and quality service since 1953.

Signs of Frozen Pipes

Identifying frozen pipes early is crucial to minimizing damage. Watch out for these signs:

  • No Water Flow: If you turn on a faucet and no water comes out, or the flow is significantly reduced, you may have a frozen pipe.
  • Frost on Pipes: Visible frost or condensation on exposed pipes is a clear indication of freezing.
  • Strange Odors: If you notice unusual odors coming from your drains or faucets, it could be due to a partially frozen pipe.

If you suspect a frozen pipe, turn off the main water supply and contact Wighton's Plumbing, Heating, and Air Conditioning immediately for professional assistance.

Our Frozen Pipe Repair Process

At Wighton's Plumbing, Heating, and Air Conditioning, our dedicated technicians are trained to handle frozen pipe repairs efficiently and effectively. Here’s what you can expect when you choose us:

1. Thorough Inspection: Our technicians will assess the extent of the freezing and identify the affected pipes.
2. Safe Thawing: We use safe and proven techniques to thaw frozen pipes, such as heat tape, electric pipe heaters, or hot water. We never use open flames, as they pose a fire risk.
3. Repair and Insulation: If any pipes have burst due to the freezing, we will repair or replace them as needed. We will also insulate the pipes to prevent future freezing.
4. Restoration: Our team will clean up any water damage and restore your home to its pre-frozen state.

We pride ourselves on fostering a positive culture where respect, care, and integrity are at the forefront of everything we do. Our goal is to provide a 5-star service experience, from the first interaction with our answering service to the completion of each job.

Preventing Frozen Pipes

Prevention is key when it comes to avoiding frozen pipes. Here are some tips to keep your pipes protected during cold Pismo Beach, Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo, Grover Beach, Arroyo Grande, Los Osos, Morro Bay, and Santa Maria, CA winters:

  1. Insulate pipes in unheated areas, such as attics, crawl spaces, and exterior walls.
  2. Seal air leaks and cracks near pipes to prevent cold air from reaching them.
  3. Keep your thermostat set to a consistent temperature, even when you’re away.
  4. Allow faucets to drip slightly during extreme cold to keep water moving through the pipes.

We had a clogged toilet, bathtub, kitchen sink. Fonzi assessed the situation and gave us options on how to find a solution that worked for us. He did this politely and spoke in terms we could relate to. We continue to be pleased with their service and honest evaluations. Highly recommend this company.

Carol J.

Jared showed up on time and was very professional with diagnosing our HVAC issues. He fixed wiring and checked electrical connections to ensure no shorting issues. He diagnosed an issue with our circuit board tripping the breaker. He had replacement parts on hand and fixed the issue in a timely manner. Very professional, would definitely recommend.

Laura J.

Everyone we have interacted with has been the best. Polite, professional, responsive. We had a new water softener system installed, some plumbing redone, and water heater service. Everything was completed promptly and professionally. They are also fast to respond to inquiries. They provide great service and peace of mind. Very good service. We will use them again.

Don O.

Tried other so-called HVAC “professionals” to fix our issues but only Tim was able to take care of our situation. He exhibited his professional skills in diagnosing our problem and explained the repairs he was going to make to us in a manner that we could understand. Obviously knowledgeable and also very friendly.

Great service. Professional. The guys took a look. Quoted a price and were done and cleaned up in an hour. You get what you pay for! I’ve heard they are too expensive but it seemed fair considering the work done. Like I said though I could have found cheaper but who knows the quality? Not these guys! Quality!

Bruce G.

Carlos was great! He was very professional, did a great high-quality job, and went above and beyond for us. Seems like all plumbers are very busy right now, and our service was delayed by a day because he got caught up on another job. But after seeing the quality of the work he did, it was worth the wait.

David walked into a plumbing mess of epic proportions. One that many had been unwilling to help with based on the scope of work needed to be done. He could have chosen the path of least resistance, but he stayed at our place longer than he deserved to and evaluated every element of our problem.

Vanessa T.

We were very happy with all of the staff, from the Comfort Advisor to the technicians and office support staff. The mapping of the new system was very thorough and important to the efficiency and performance of our new Heat Pump System, by expanding and adding air registers in the kitchen, bathroom en suite, and bedroom.

Valene M.

I had I believe James and Christian come help me with a shower drain. These guys really knew their stuff and I felt comfortable with them. They even helped me fix my smoker while they were here!!! Excellent job guys. You will be my go-to from here on out. Thank you!!!

Terry D.

Luis and Silverio were very professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. They took extra measures that protect our home and cleaned any debris. I would rate them both as exceptional. Luis mentioned that someone from Wighton may come back to do a follow-up on their work. That gave me a lot of confidence.
