Emergency Water Pipe Repair & Leak Fixing
A burst or leaking pipe does not wait for business hours, and neither do we. Our plumbers respond to emergency calls day or night across North Alabama. If water is running, seeping, or pooling where it should not, shut off your main water supply and call us right away.
In addition to water line repair, we also repair sewer and gas lines, helping homeowners fix the source of leaks before they turn into serious property damage or safety hazards.
Common Causes of Burst Pipes in North Alabama Homes
Pipes in our region face a unique mix of weather and water conditions. Here are the most common reasons we see burst or leaking pipes:
- Freezing temperatures: Even brief cold snaps in Huntsville can cause uninsulated pipes to freeze and burst.
- Aging or corroded pipes: Many older homes in Madison and Decatur still have galvanized steel or copper plumbing that weakens over time.
- Hard water buildup: Mineral deposits from North Alabama’s water supply restrict flow and add pressure.
- Ground shifting: Seasonal rain and soil movement around the Tennessee Valley can put stress on underground pipes.
- Poor installation or repairs: Improper fittings or patch jobs can cause cracks or leaks later.
Signs Your Water Pipe Has Burst
Not all leaks are obvious. Sometimes the signs are small at first:
- Sudden drop in water pressure
- Hissing or dripping sounds behind walls
- Unexplained increase in your water bill
- Wet spots on walls, ceilings, or floors
- Water pooling in the yard or near the foundation
- Musty odors or mildew growth indoors
If you notice any of these warning signs, turn off the water at the main shut-off valve and call Blake Brothers for fast service.
Our Burst Pipe Repair Process
We have been fixing plumbing systems for more than a century, so we have this down to a simple process:
- Inspect and locate the problem: We use advanced leak detection to find the source without unnecessary damage to walls or floors.
- Shut off the water and stabilize the system: We prevent further flooding or leaks before starting repairs.
- Remove the damaged pipe section: Our plumbers replace only what is necessary using durable, high-grade materials.
