When the winter air dips into North Georgia, local homes can feel the impact fast. If your home has exposed plumbing in crawl spaces or basements, your pipes can wind up freezing and bursting, which ends up sending water pouring into floors, walls, and ceilings.
Moncrief Heating & Air Conditioning has helped Atlanta families protect their homes through sudden cold snaps for generations. Whether you wake up to no water or discover a puddle spreading across the floor, our team responds quickly with solutions that fit your home and your situation.

Frozen Pipe Thawing & Repair
When temperatures drop into the 20s and teens, areas like Brookhaven, Sandy Springs, and Decatur often see frozen water lines in attics, garages, or under sinks along exterior walls. A frozen pipe doesn’t always burst immediately, but the pressure buildup can cause swelling and cracks.
Our licensed and insured plumbers know how to find the blockage, even in older homes with tight crawl spaces or outdated insulation. We use controlled thawing methods that safely warm the pipe without overheating it. Once thawed, we inspect for cracks, pinhole leaks, or pressure issues so your plumbing is fully restored and protected for the next cold night.
Burst Pipe Repair & Replacement
A burst pipe can release dozens of gallons of water within minutes, which can be especially destructive in Atlanta’s older homes with hardwood floors, plaster walls, and finished basements. Whether the damage involves copper lines in a Buckhead crawl space or PVC pipes in a Midtown condo, our team repairs or replaces the damaged section quickly and safely.
We stop the leak, install new piping that meets modern code, and help you understand why the pipe failed, whether it was aging material, poor insulation, or sudden temperature changes.
How To Prevent Freezing Pipes
All it takes is one overnight freeze to create a plumbing emergency in North Georgia. These simple steps help reduce your risk:
- Insulate exposed plumbing in crawl spaces, garages, and basements
- Keep water dripping slightly on the coldest nights
- Seal gaps around outdoor spigots, windows, and foundation areas
- Disconnect hoses before winter and install insulated faucet covers
- Open cabinets under sinks to keep warm air circulating
