Frozen Pipe Burst in Glastonbury CT

Frozen Pipe Burst in Glastonbury CT: A homeowner discovered a frozen pipe that had burst in their home after a freezing storm and then contacted SERVPRO. The pipe had erupted because of becoming frozen due to winter storm weather and had allowed water to flow freely from the open pipe, damaging the surrounding floor and walls. With its proximity to electrical outlets, it had become a hazardous emergency. The homeowner did a quick web search for "frozen pipe burst cleanup in Glastonbury CT," and after a quick phone call, SERVPRO dispatched a crew to assist.

SERVPRO arrived at the home and immediately began providing several damage cleanup services to the house and homeowner. Once we arrived, we quickly isolated the leak from this frozen pipe burst in Glastonbury CT. We found the leak's origin, removed damaged walls and flooring, deployed drying fans to dry the affected areas, treated the room with an antimicrobial, cleaned the affected areas, and left them ready for further renovation and remodeling. 

Water leaks can be challenging to deal with and can always turn from bad to even worse. Water leaking, spraying, or gushing can damage flooring and surfaces. If the amount is significant, or if left untreated for a while, running water can completely ruin walls and floors of the affected rooms and any below the affected area, including other systems like appliances and nearby electrical outlets.

The damage at this homeowner's frozen pipe burst in Glastonbury CT was significant, and they were thankful to have SERVPRO on hand, "I don't know what we would have done had SERVPRO not come so quickly. When I realized that the leak had damaged walls, carpet, and even the floor below, I knew we needed SERVPRO right away."

Water Damage can come from various sources and can adversely affect homes and homeowners in multiple ways. Groundwater and natural streams can result in flood conditions by extreme weather such as rains, seasonal melting, and hurricanes. Seasonal changes can also cause burst frozen pipes and clogged drains. Appliance failures like broken water heaters, leaking washing machines, and sump pump failure are just a few ways that systems in your home can break down and cause damage.
