Burst pipes are the worst plumbing emergency a homeowner can face — every minute matters. During business hours we dispatch fast, stabilize the leak first to limit damage, then quote and complete the permanent repair with prevention recommendations for the run that failed.

01

Frozen-pipe repair

Charlotte freezes are short but they hit hard. We repair the burst section, then advise on insulation and shutoff strategy for the next cold snap.

02

Main water-line rupture

Service-line breaks between the meter and the house. Most can be done trenchless without tearing up the yard.

03

Slab break / supply-line failure

When a copper or PEX line in or under the slab fails. We assess re-route vs cut-and-replace and explain the cost difference.
