Radiant Plumbing & Air Conditioning repairs frozen pipes fast—serving Austin, San Antonio, and nearby areas with 24/7 emergency response and prevention solutions.
In Austin and San Antonio, freezes don’t happen often—but when they do, they hit hard. Local plumbing systems just aren’t built for sustained freezing temperatures, and when water inside your pipes turns to ice, it expands and puts pressure on your plumbing from the inside out. The result? Cracked, frozen pipes—and a major mess once they thaw. Radiant Plumbing & Air Conditioning is ready 24/7 with fast, expert frozen pipe repair and burst pipe prevention.

Common signs of frozen pipes include no water coming out of faucets, strange smells coming from drains, visible frost on exposed pipes, or clanging and banging sounds when you turn on taps. If only certain fixtures are affected—especially those on exterior walls—that’s a big red flag. Don’t wait for the pipe to burst. Call Radiant for fast diagnosis and repair.
You can try gently warming accessible frozen pipes with a hair dryer, heat lamp, or warm towels—never use an open flame. But for hidden or completely blocked pipes, it’s best to call a professional. Radiant Plumbing & Air Conditioning uses safe, targeted methods to thaw pipes without damaging them or risking a burst. We’ll also inspect for cracks and leaks caused by pressure buildup.
Insulate exposed pipes, especially those in attics, crawl spaces, and exterior walls. During cold nights, open cabinets under sinks and let faucets drip slightly to keep water moving. For long-term protection, schedule a plumbing inspection with Radiant before winter hits. We’ll help you winterize your plumbing and identify areas that need extra insulation or upgrades.
Not always—but they’re at high risk. When water freezes inside a pipe, it expands and increases internal pressure. If the pipe can’t withstand that pressure, it can crack or split open—especially when the ice thaws and water rushes back in. The best way to avoid a burst is to catch frozen pipes early and call Radiant at the first sign of trouble.
In most cases, yes—if you’ve taken reasonable steps to maintain your home. Damage caused by a sudden freeze and resulting pipe bursts is usually covered under standard homeowners insurance. However, claims may be denied if the damage was preventable. Radiant can assist with detailed repair documentation to help streamline the claims process.
Yes! Radiant offers 24/7 emergency plumbing services for frozen and burst pipes in Austin, San Antonio, and nearby communities. Whether your pipes are solid ice or you’re already dealing with a leak, our licensed plumbers will respond quickly, thaw the lines safely, and make lasting repairs—so you can get back to comfort, fast.
Texas homes aren’t built for deep freezes. So when the temperature drops suddenly—as it can do in Austin, San Antonio, and nearby areas—your plumbing could be at risk before you even realize it. Frozen pipes are a time-sensitive emergency. They’re silent at first, then loud and destructive as they crack, leak, and flood your home.
Radiant Plumbing & Air Conditioning is here to stop that from happening—or fix it fast when it does. Our licensed plumbers are available 24/7 with the tools and training to thaw pipes safely, repair damaged lines, and help homeowners recover with minimal disruption. Whether you’re already facing a frozen pipe or want to winterize your plumbing, we’re the team you can trust to do it right.
Before a pipe bursts, it freezes. But you might not notice—until something goes wrong. Frozen pipes cut off your water supply and silently build pressure. The longer they stay frozen, the more likely they are to split open. And once temperatures rise again, that ice melts, flooding the inside of your walls, ceilings, floors, or foundation.
The result? Water damage. Mold growth. Soaked insulation. And expensive repairs—not just to plumbing, but to your home’s structure.
Common signs include:
No water coming from faucets
Strange odors from frozen drain lines
Frost on exposed pipes
Bulging walls or ceiling spots
Reduced water pressure when things thaw
