Frozen and Burst Pipe Repairs

Are you in need of frozen and burst pipe repairs? 

During colder periods, frozen and burst pipes are one of the most common and damaging property emergencies. A sudden drop in temperature can cause water inside pipes to freeze, expand, and crack the pipework, leading to serious leaks or flooding once the ice begins to thaw.

At RPD, we provide fast-frozen and burst-pipe repair services across the Wirral, Liverpool, and Chester for people who need fast, reliable help. Whether the issue is visible water damage or a hidden underground supply pipe failure, our experienced engineers respond quickly to limit disruption and prevent further damage.

Why Frozen & Burst Pipes Happen

Frozen and burst pipes are most likely to occur during extended cold weather, but temperature alone isn’t always the only factor.
Common causes we see include:

  • Sudden temperature drops causing water inside pipes to freeze, expand and split the pipe
  • Poorly insulated pipes in lofts, garages, outbuildings or external walls
  • Older or corroded pipework that has weakened over time
  • Excessive water pressure putting strain on joints and fittings
  • Previously repaired, altered or poorly installed pipework failing in cold conditions

Our team identify the root cause of the problem and carries out repairs that provide a long-term solution, not just a temporary fix.

Frozen & Burst Pipe Repairs: What We Do

At RPD, along with carrying out frozen and burst pipe repairs, our team will check the surrounding pipework and overall system to identify any underlying risks that could lead to future leaks. 

After the repair is complete, we’ll also offer practical guidance on protecting your pipes, including insulation upgrades or pipe replacements where necessary, helping to reduce the chance of repeat issues.

Our frozen & burst pipe repairs service covers:

  • Rapid leak location and emergency shut-off
  • Repairing or replacing damaged pipework
  • Fixing leaks affecting walls, ceilings, or flooring
  • Safe thawing of frozen pipes
  • System pressure checks and performance testing
  • Checks to minimise water damage and hidden leaks
  • Fast emergency plumbing support, available any time. 

Emergency Frozen & Burst Pipe Repairs You Can Rely On

Even a small crack can release hundreds of litres of water in a short space of time, causing damage to walls, floors, electrics and foundations.

Our team is available 24/7 to attend emergency call-outs during cold weather. We focus first on isolating the problem and stopping the water flow, before carrying out the necessary repairs or replacements. Where appropriate, we can install temporary solutions to stabilise the situation and return later to complete permanent repair work once conditions allow.

Drainage is our core service, but we also have extensive experience working with underground water supply pipes and lead pipe replacements. This means we are well equipped to deal with burst pipes both inside the property and below ground, using efficient, modern techniques to avoid unnecessary excavation wherever possible.

Experienced Emergency Callout Engineers, Minimal Disruption

With over 15 years of experience serving domestic and commercial customers, we understand how disruptive frozen and burst pipe emergencies can be. That’s why we’re always focused on resolving the issue as quickly, efficiently and cleanly as possible.

We use our knowledge of drainage systems, water mains and underground pipework to pinpoint faults accurately and carry out repairs without unnecessary damage to your property. Where digging is required, we keep it to an absolute minimum and ensure all areas are left tidy once work is complete. Before starting any work, we clearly explain the issue and provide a written quote, so you know exactly what to expect with no hidden costs.
