Frozen Pipes in Augusta and Waterville

1/14/2020 (Permalink)

So many of us in Maine have endured frozen water pipes in our homes or place of business. What can happen when we don't recognize a frozen pipe in a timely manner?  If it goes undetected, the pipe can burst from the expansion of the freezing water.  Water has a unique property in that it expands when it freezes.  The fluctuating and often extreme temperatures that we experience in Maine, make our water pipes even more susceptible to freezing. Don't let frozen pipes ruin your home or business.

Here are some helpful hints to help prevent your pipes from freezing:

  1. Close inside valves that feed outside hose bibs.
  2. Keep garage doors closed.
  3. If you are going away for the season, be sure to keep your thermostat at a moderate temperature.  Many people recommend that you don’t lower your thermostat to below 55 degrees F.

If your pipes do freeze, here are some steps you can take to limit damage:

  1. If you turn on a faucet and only a trickle of water comes out, this may be indicative of a frozen pipe.
  2. The most likely locations for a frozen pipe are in exterior walls or where the water comes into the home.
  3. As you attempt to thaw the pipe, keep the faucet open so that the water can run though it.
  4. You can apply heat to the pipe using an electric heating pad or a hair dryer.  Do not use a blow torch and do not leave the heating element unattended.

If all that fails and your frozen pipe bursts, call us at SERVPRO of Augusta/Waterville.  Even in the cold Central Maine winters, one of our certified technicians will be at your doorstep within four hours ready to help!  You can read more about our water removal services at SERVPRO of Augusta/Waterville.com.

Ice Dams Can Be Destructive

2/3/2019 (Permalink)

You can spot an ice dam when you see icicles hanging from the roof's edge.

Many homes in the northern US know what an ice dam is and the damages that they can do to the home. What is an ice dam? It is a thick accumulation of ice that forms over the eaves of a house. Water settles behind the dam and gradually works its way beneath roof shingles through a cycle of freezing and thawing."

When heat escapes the home and heats up the roof, it causes the snow to melt. That melting snow flows down the slope of the roof to refreeze on the unheated portions of the roof, like the eves and overhangs. As this cycle continues, the ice builds up on the edges of your home and traps water underneath. It is this water that can then leak into your home.

Make sure the ventilation in your eaves, the peak and overhangs is adequate. "An air space above the insulation in the ceiling or attic then allows cold air to move freely, keeping the roof cold and preventing the snow cover from melting. When a roof is being constructed, inexpensive Styrofoam baffles may be installed to ensure that there is a passageway for cold air from the eaves to the peak."

Make sure your attic is properly insulated and sealed to prevent moisture from getting into the living areas of your home.

When putting on a new roof, make sure the snow and ice shield is installed properly on the subroof. This helps prevent moisture from finding its way into the home. This product forms a barrier for your roof to prevent against the water.

But then there are times that the damage does occur. When it does, have your roof cleared, and then call SERVPRO of Augusta/Waterville at 207-622-7166 to inspect your home and make it "Like it never even happened."

Prepare for Frozen Pipes and Ice Dams

1/12/2019 (Permalink)

Frozen pipes, puffbacks, ice dams, and the flu. Yes the fresh fallen snow is a beautiful sight for many, but all the complications that can accompany winter may leave you a little uneasy. Maybe you are a new home owner or business owner? Maybe this is your first time in a location where temperatures often dip into the negatives? Either way we have outlined a few of the hazards often seen when we are in the dead of winter.

Frozen Pipes

A frozen pipe can burst at the point where the ice blockage inside the pipe is located, but typically the rupture is caused by the backflow pressure between the water sources and the blockage. A burst pipe can cause considerable damage to your property if not addressed quickly. 

Ice Dams

Ice dams form when heated air melts roof snow downward into water dammed behind still frozen ice. When the trapped water cannot safely flow or run into the gutter system, it can backflow under shingles and into your structure’s interior. Ice dams can be a major problem during the winter months. Be sure all gutters are cleaned and secured.  

If your home is victim to the powerful effects of the cold winter temps, please call SERVPRO of Augusta/Waterville at 207-622-7166.  We are always here to help!

Prepare to Prevent Frozen Pipes

10/20/2018 (Permalink)

It's never too early to prep your home for the impending Winter.  Fall is upon us, so now is a great time to begin preparing for the colder weather while it's still warm! Colder temperatures can be extremely damaging to your home if you're not prepared.

Contrary to popular belief, pipes don't typically burst at the point where water freezes, but somewhere between the freeze and a closed faucet. When the pressure builds due to ice blockage, it has nowhere to go but through the pipe walls, which can quickly lead to extensive water damage. Winterize your home plumbing, stop frozen pipes before they happen and prevent expensive water damage by properly insulating the plumbing pipes in your home.

1. Pipe insulation

Your pipes are more susceptible to freezing damage when temperatures drop to 20 degrees Fahrenheit or below. Pipe insulation provides you with a first line of defense against cold temperatures and frozen pipes. For pipe winterization, add a thicker layer of insulation around your pipes.

Insulate the pipes in all unheated areas, as they are most likely to freeze. Wrap the pipes in insulation tubes made of polyethylene or fiberglass. Measure the outside diameter of your pipes to make sure you purchase the correct size of tube. Wrapping pipes in heat-tape prior to insulating adds an extra layer of protection, but make sure you follow the manufacturer's instructions to avoid damage.

2. Keep a dripping faucet

On nights when the temperature is expected to drop below freezing, turn on faucets along the exterior walls to create a small, steady drip; doing so will allow the water to move and flow, helping to keep it from freezing. This also eliminates pressure that can build between the faucet and an ice blockage, so even if a pipe freezes, it may not burst. 

3. Open cabinets

You can stop frozen pipes by introducing more heat. Open all sink-based cabinet doors along exterior walls to allow more heat to reach the pipes.

4. Fix exterior cracks

Note any cracks or holes along the outside walls and foundation of your home. Filling holes and cracks with spray foam insulation and caulking can help stop the cold air from coming into contact with your water pipes during extremely cold weather.

Taking these steps may prevent your pipes from freezing this winter.  If frozen pipes cause a water damage situation in your home, please do not hesitate to call SERVPRO of Augusta/Waterville - We are always here to help!

WATER DAMAGE IN REMOTE AREAS - NO PROBLEM!

5/5/2018 (Permalink)

This carpet is saturated. Due to our quick response, we were able to dry and save the carpet.

Water damage can happen anytime, even when you least expect it.  This beautiful Maine home experienced water damage on a gorgeous 70 degree sunny day.  The homeowner was taking advantage of a warm, Spring day to clean the outside of his house.  Unbeknownst to him, his water pipe had sprung a leak over the winter and when he charged the pipe with water to run the hose, it sent water throughout his basement.  After some time running the hose, he found his basement totally covered with water.  

He made several calls and, fortunately, one was to SERVPRO of Augusta/Waterville.  We were the only service provider that would travel to his remote location and we were on site within a short time to begin the cleanup process.  

If water damage affects your home or business, please don't hesitate to call SERVPRO of Augusta/Waterville at 622-7166, regardless of what town you are in.  We are always here to help!

The Unseen Water Hiding in Your Home

3/16/2018 (Permalink)

This wood flooring looks dry on the surface but the meter detects moisture hidden below.

You have been away for ten days on vacation, you arrive home at 9pm on a Sunday night and what do you want do? Probably get home, relax, and call it a night. But when you walk in and a pipe has burst or a toilet has leaked while you were gone? That changes everything.

In order to save money, people can sometimes use their own tools to stop and dry up water damage. Unfortunately, sometimes the unseen water in your home or office can cause the greatest problems. Hidden behind walls, cabinets or under flooring can be pooled water or moisture that will cause greater health risks to your home and family later on. Here at SERVPRO® of Augusta/Waterville, we have the tools to see that hidden damage and help stop potential problems.

  • Moisture Sensors – these will detect moisture in carpet, walls, and baseboards.
  • Moisture Meters – these determine the level of moisture in materials. They can penetrate into the material to identify what's going on below the surface.  These tools assist us to determine our plan for drying.
  • Thermohygrometers – these devices help monitor the temperature and relative humidity in the air. Temperature and humidity play a large role in the drying process and help the SERVPRO® professionals determine how to adjust the process along the way.
  • Infrared Cameras – this helps identify the areas that have hidden moisture and document its location. These cameras identify temperature differences in materials from where the areas are cooling (water has been evaporating) and where it is still affected by the moisture.

Our goal is to restore your property “Like it never even happened.” When in doubt, call SERVPRO® of Augusta/Waterville.
