Before Winter

Getting Your Home Ready for Winter

In the fall, shut off and drain outdoor faucets from the inside valve, and disconnect garden hoses. Insulate pipes in the garage, crawl space and any outside walls you can reach. Seal gaps where cold air gets in near pipes. When a deep freeze is coming, keep the heat steady, even at night, and open cabinet doors on outside walls. If you're traveling, don't turn the heat down too far, and ask someone to check on the house.

"I had J. Blanton Plumbing come service a potential sewer line back-up and I was super impressed with the entire experience. My technician was Stephen Walen and he was fantastic. He scoped our entire line so we could see where our main line hooks up to off-shoots of our other pipes. He walked through all different short & long-term scenarios so we could make informed decisions."
