One of the biggest indicators that your pipes are likely frozen is a total lack of water flowing from any of your faucets, toilets, fixtures, showers, tubs, etc. When this happens, it usually means that the water in your supply pipes has frozen solid. If you notice minimal water coming from your plumbing fixtures while in the dead of Owings Mills, MD winter, you most likely have a partial freeze, which is still extremely dangerous and needs to be dealt with by professionals at Honest Abe right away.

A major red flag when it comes to frozen pipes is if you notice spots or signs of water damage around your home. This could indicate that part of your pipes has already actually burst and is leaking in your home. Water damage is a red flag for imminent danger and inevitable flooding from a burst pipe in the very near future, and needs to be addressed by Honest Abe immediately.

If your home has exposed pipes in any area of the property, always keep an eye on them during the Owings Mills, MD winter season. Through a visual inspection, you should be able to see if there is any frost that is building up on your water supply lines. If you do see frost building up on your pipes, you need to have Honest Abe address the issue as soon as possible before the pipes end up bursting and totally damaging your home.

Have you noticed an unfamiliar, foul odor coming from your drains? This could very well be due to blockages in your plumbing system from frozen water in your pipes. In the event you notice foreign odors coming from even just one of your drains while it is cold outside, you should call Honest Abe to have your pipes looked at, at the very least.
