ROANOKE, Va., Dec. 29, 2020 /PRNewswire/ Southern Trust Home Services, a leading HVAC and plumbing company serving southwest Virginia, reminds Roanoke-area residents to protect their homes from frozen pipes this winter, reducing the risk of potentially catastrophic water damage.
Plumbing pipes frequently run through unheated or uninsulated parts of a building, like crawlspaces, attics and external walls. When water inside freezes and expands, it could cause the pipe to burst, quickly leading to water damage and high utility and repair costs.
