Frozen Pipe Repairs in Orillia & North Bay — Permanent Fixes Done the Right Way

We Fix It Right. No Torches. No Tape. No Guesswork.

When Ontario temperatures drop, frozen pipes aren’t just inconvenient — they’re dangerous. Left unchecked, they can burst, flood your home, and cause thousands in damage.

At Poly-B Plumbing, we respond fast, diagnose the issue properly, and repair or replace frozen pipes using licensed methods that protect your system for the long haul.

What Freezes — and How We Fix It

We diagnose and repair frozen plumbing issues in:

Copper and PEX water lines

Outdoor hose bibs and taps

Crawlspace and basement piping

Cottage water systems

Supply lines behind uninsulated walls

Water filtration and well system lines

Sump pump discharges and check valves

Whether it’s frozen solid or already burst, we’ll fix it right — with no shortcuts or blowtorches.

HVAC failures during cold snaps

Old copper or galvanized pipes without protection

Our Frozen Pipe Repair Process

Step 1

Shut Down & Protect

We turn off water safely and limit further damage.
Step 2

Locate the Freeze Point

Using thermal imaging and pressure testing, we pinpoint the freeze without tearing open every wall.
Step 3

Repair or Replace

We replace damaged pipe sections with PEX or copper — soldered, crimped, or ProPress. No SharkBite. No flex lines.
Step 4

Prevent Future Freezing

We insulate, reroute, or install heat tape based on the cause. We’ll also recommend upgrades if needed for extreme-weather zones.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my pipes are frozen?

If you turn on a faucet and nothing comes out — especially on an exterior wall — it’s likely frozen. Strange smells or banging can also be signs.

Can frozen pipes be thawed without cutting walls?

Yes — in many cases. We use thermal tools to find and address the issue with minimal disruption.

What if the pipe already burst?

We’ll shut off the water, contain the leak, and replace the damaged section. We never patch or tape.

Can I prevent freezing next time?

Yes. We’ll show you how to insulate vulnerable areas or install preventative solutions like heat trace or shutoff systems.
