A split pipe can release hundreds of gallons an hour. We help you shut off the water, locate the rupture inside the wall, ceiling, attic or yard, repair the line and document the damage, with 24/7 dispatch across Las Vegas, Henderson and North Las Vegas.
What causes pipes to burst in Las Vegas homes?
In Las Vegas, burst pipes are most often caused by rare hard freezes in attics and exterior walls, excessive water pressure from a failed regulator, corroded copper, water hammer and failed braided supply connectors at water heaters and fixtures.
Burst pipes are less common in the desert than up north, but they still happen. Attic lines freeze on the coldest January nights, high pressure blows out weak fittings, and old copper can split along a seam without warning. Burst pipe repair starts with stopping the water and finding exactly where the pipe failed.
If the burst is obvious, we go straight to the repair. When water is appearing far from the source, we locate it with wall and ceiling leak detection methods so drywall is only opened once. Bursts are handled through our 24/7 emergency leak service, and repeated failures in an older home are a sign it may be time for repiping.
Emergency repairsDesert homes have their own reasons for sudden pipe failures.
Rare hard freezes split pipes in unheated attics and exterior walls.
Pressure above recommended levels stresses fittings and joints.
A worn regulator lets full city pressure into the house.
Hard water thins pipe walls until they split.
Fast-closing valves create pressure spikes that loosen joints.
Braided supply lines at heaters and fixtures can rupture.
If the water is shut off, send a request and we will call you back to confirm timing.
We guide you to the shut-off and confirm the flow has stopped.
Hidden bursts are located before walls are opened.
The failed section is replaced through our pipe leak repair process and pressure tested.
Photos and notes for your insurance claim.
