Common emergencies in Fresno
Fresno's plumbing emergencies spike during hard freezes like Winter Storm Uri in February 2021, when pipes froze and burst across Texas. Clay soil shifts cause slab leaks, especially in homes built before 2005. Hard water leads to sediment buildup in water heaters and fixtures. Protect pipes with insulation before freezing weather. Know your main shutoff valve location.
