Plumbing questions, answered for Holiday Shores

Holiday Shores sits in Illinois's continental-climate region — a humid continental climate — hot, humid summers and cold, snowy winters, with sharp freeze-thaw swings between seasons. That's hard on a home's plumbing: freeze-thaw cycles that crack pipe and split fittings and deep winter cold that freezes exposed and uninsulated supply lines all accelerate wear on pipes, fittings, and water heaters, so the failures we see most here are frozen exterior spigots and hose bibs and failing water heaters strained by cold inlet water. We spec pipe, fittings, and fixtures for local conditions, not a generic catalog spec.

The call we get most in Holiday Shores is frozen exterior spigots and hose bibs.

Often just the failed section. If the surrounding pipe is still sound and the leak is isolated, a spot repair on your Holiday Shores line is far cheaper than a full repipe.

When the pipe is old galvanized steel throughout, we'll walk you through why repiping pays off long term.
