Burst & Frozen Pipe Repair
To repair a damaged pipe, an after‑hours plumber from F.F. Hitchcock Plumbing, Heating & Cooling in Berlin, CT, will shut off the main water supply and disconnect electricity to the affected areas. Next, we’ll locate the burst or frozen section and assess how far the issue has spread. From there, we’ll explain whether repair or replacement is the better solution, and provide estimated costs.
Emergency Drain & Sewer Backups
Sudden drain and sewer backups often occur when there is aging or damage to pipes, debris buildup, tree root intrusion, and blockages deep within the sewer line. Our team will identify the source of the obstruction using electronic sensors and video pipe inspections and take fast action to clear it.
Water Heater Emergencies & No Hot Water
When your water heater tank is leaking or you suddenly don’t have hot water, it’s a sign that the system needs immediate attention. One of our plumbers will inspect the tank, heating elements, and supply lines for failed components, sediment buildup, or a tank rupture. Our plumber will then outline the safest and most efficient path forward, whether that means repairing the unit or replacing it to restore reliable hot water.
