Frozen Pipe Repair in Navarino, Green Bay, WI
Navarino is a quiet historic neighborhood near downtown Green Bay, with historic homes, two parks, and the Fox River Trail close by. Residents are a short walk from the city’s restaurants and farmers markets, and the neighborhood’s older housing stock means many homes still have pipe runs that were built long before modern insulation standards.
Why frozen pipes are common in Navarino
Navarino’s historic homes often have plumbing that runs through unheated spaces, along exterior walls, or inside cabinets on outside walls — the exact places pipes freeze. Green Bay’s January average low is 11.1°F, and the city’s record low is −36°F, so a cold spell can freeze a pipe that has been fine for years. When water inside a pipe freezes it expands, pressure builds, and the pipe can crack or burst, with the leak often only appearing when the pipe thaws.

When a cold spell settles over Green Bay, those runs are among the first to freeze, and a pipe that has been fine for years can split without warning.

What to do if a pipe freezes in Navarino
A tap that only trickles, or gives nothing at all, is the usual first sign. Keep the faucet open, check the other taps in the house, and try gentle heat on a pipe you can reach, such as an electric heating pad or a hair dryer. Never use a blowtorch, a kerosene or propane heater, or any open flame. If you cannot find or reach the frozen section, or if water is leaking, turn off the main water supply and call.

Frequently asked questions
Are older homes in Navarino more likely to have frozen pipes?
Yes. Navarino’s historic homes often have older pipe runs in unheated spaces and along exterior walls, with less insulation than newer homes. That makes them more exposed during Green Bay’s cold winters.
Can I thaw a frozen pipe myself?
You can try gentle heat on an accessible pipe, such as a hair dryer or towels soaked in hot water, with the faucet open. Never use an open flame. If you cannot find the frozen section, cannot reach it, or cannot thaw it, call a local professional.
