Home / Services / Winterization Inspections & Frozen-Pipe Prevention
Diagnostic · Foundation & StructurePipes freeze where the heat does not reach: an unheated run against an exterior wall, a crawl space, an uninsulated loft. The inspection finds those before the first cold snap does.
What this actually is
We survey the building for the two things that matter: where the pipe runs are vulnerable, and where the cold air is getting in. Those are usually the same places, because an opening that lets cold air in is an opening that stops the heat reaching the pipe.
You get a list ordered by what would cost you the most if it failed, not by what is easiest to sell.
