How to Prevent Burst Pipes in Northwest Oregon and Southwest Washington

Cold winters and fluctuating temperatures in Downtown Portland, OR, can put your plumbing at risk for burst pipes, but a few preventive steps can save you from costly damage.

Start by insulating exposed pipes in unheated areas like basements, garages, and crawl spaces. During freezing weather, keep a small trickle of water running from faucets to relieve pressure in the lines.

Make sure to disconnect outdoor hoses and shut off exterior water lines before winter hits.

Maintaining a consistent indoor temperature is also important, even if you’re away from home. Keep your thermostat set no lower than 55°F, and open cabinet doors under sinks to let warm air circulate around the pipes.

Regular plumbing inspections can also catch small issues before they turn into emergencies. For professional help winterizing your home or inspecting your plumbing system, contact B&G Excavation and Plumbing LLC for services.

Ryan and Joe were polite, professional and helpful. Ryan explained the problem clearly and never pressed us into extra work. It was a relief to have such a positive experience.

B&G sent some guys out shortly after my call. Craig and Cristian diagnosed my leaking shower head right away and fixed the problem, as they showed me what to look for in the future. Great guys, great company. I've used them a lot in the past. Always excellent service.

Two companies later, I realized I should’ve just called B&G Excavation from the jump! Ryan and Joe were great and went the extra mile getting my washer and dryer hooked up. So glad I finally called them. Highly recommend!

I bought a new gas water heater a little over a year ago and had it installed. The service was great! Today I discovered a leak in line going out, which was not replaced last year. I absolutely expected to have to wait and have a bill, but neither happened. It may have been coincidence they were able to make it so quickly, but I'm one happy lady with their prompt service and the politeness of the plumbers who came out. So easy to work with, highly recommend!

B&G helped with my kitchen remodel. They came out multiple times. First, they moved my plumbing pipes, then they adjusted it when my cabinet guy had an issue, and lastly, they connected my sink. They were always quick, professional, and reasonably priced. I will use them again when I remodel my bathroom!!

Had a property with a suspected cesspool (due to age of home and "buried object" found on scan) but not a lot of other info to go off of. B&G bid the decommissioning along with a few other misc. plumbing items including diagnosing either a clogged sink drain, or drains that could potentially go to an old cesspool. Before just opening walls, the really worked to accurately diagnose the issue. It ended up just being a clog which they cleared, and their team also installed new sinks for us. When it came time to dig toward the "buried object" they discovered it was actually an old deck footing. They continued to investigate, gave expert advice, and everyone from their managers, onsite folks, and office folks were great communicators throughout. They operated with integrity even though the scope of the job ended up being much smaller than they originally bid. I plan to keep B&G's contact handy, and will refer friends, family, and clients in the future.

Pacific Northwest Burst Pipe Repair Techniques

Quick and effective repairs are essential when a pipe bursts in the damp, variable climate of the Pacific Northwest. Here are some common techniques plumbers use to fix the problem:

Pipe Clamping:
Temporary clamps stop leaks until a permanent solution can be installed.
Pipe Replacement:

Severely damaged sections are cut out and replaced with new piping.
Epoxy Patching:
For smaller cracks, epoxy compounds can seal the break and reinforce the pipe.
Pipe Rerouting:
Rerouting may provide a long-term fix in cases with repeated issues or hard-to-reach leaks.
Insulation Installation:
After repairs, plumbers often add insulation to prevent future freezing and bursting.

For expert repairs done right the first time, trust B&G Excavation and Plumbing LLC. We handle burst pipe emergencies throughout the Northwest District, OR, quickly and accurately.
