Frozen Pipe Repair in Olde North, Green Bay, WI

Olde North is a quiet residential neighborhood less than two miles from downtown Green Bay, with tree-lined streets, single-family homes, and three parks, close to Bay Beach Amusement Park. It is a well-established neighborhood, and many of its homes have the older plumbing layouts that make frozen pipes a winter risk.

Why frozen pipes are common in Olde North

Olde North’s homes are well established, and many have water pipes running through crawl spaces, attics, and garages, or against exterior walls with little insulation — the places pipes freeze first. Green Bay averages a January low of 11.1°F, and a cold spell can last for days: in January 2025 a cold spell from the 19th to the 22nd brought an extreme cold warning for Northeast Wisconsin, with wind chills around −35°F. A pipe that survived a mild winter can freeze in a spell like that.
