Frozen Pipes Cause Water Damage in Commercial Properties in Schererville, IN?

1/21/2025 (Permalink)

A person insulates a pipe to prevent it from freezing. We restore property damage from frozen pipes 24/7 in Lake County.

Our local Western Lake County team restores frozen pipe damage every winter in Schererville. Frozen pipes are among the most common causes of winter water damage in commercial properties. As water inside pipes freezes and expands, it creates immense pressure, often leading to cracks or bursts. The resulting water leaks can cause significant damage, disrupting operations and leading to costly repairs.

A burst pipe can flood workplaces and warehouses, damaging walls, flooring, and equipment. Businesses with inventory stored in lower levels, such as basements, are particularly vulnerable to water damage. Additionally, prolonged water exposure increases the risk of mold growth, adding to restoration expenses.

The financial impact of frozen pipes extends beyond property repairs. Businesses may experience downtime as water is removed, damaged areas are repaired, and mold is remediated. This disruption can lead to lost revenue and dissatisfied customers or clients.

To prevent frozen pipes, business owners should ensure pipes in unheated areas are insulated and well-maintained. Regular inspections and routine winterization practices, such as sealing drafts and keeping indoor temperatures above freezing, can help avoid pipe damage.

By being proactive, businesses in Schererville can safeguard their buildings from the costly consequences of frozen pipes and maintain uninterrupted operations during the winter months.
