Outdoor faucet and freeze prep in Austin, TX

Ready before the first hard freeze warning

Austin freezes are short, rare and expensive. Nearly all the burst-pipe damage we hear about starts at an uncovered hose bib or an un-drained irrigation backflow. We handle the outside of the house before the forecast makes it urgent.

Every fall, with a follow-up check before a named freeze event.

What the visit covers

  • Inspect and test every exterior faucet
  • Disconnect hoses and install insulated bib covers
  • Insulate exposed supply lines where accessible
  • Irrigation backflow wrap and drain guidance
  • Confirm the location of the main shutoff

Signs it is time

  • Hoses still attached in November
  • A hose bib that drips or spins freely
  • Exposed pipe on an exterior wall
  • Damage or a scare during a previous freeze

What it costs in Austin

Whole-home freeze prep runs about $110 to $190 including covers. Included as a scheduled fall visit on Standard and Premium.

Where we do this work

Hill Country elevations in Westlake, Steiner Ranch and Lakeway run several degrees colder than downtown on freeze nights. We schedule those homes first.
