With winter weather just around the corner, it’s critical for Columbia homeowners to understand the risks and dangers of frozen or burst water pipes. According to the website CostHelper, the average cost to repair a burst water pipe can be $900 with other water damage repairs added on top of that amount.

At Ken Griffin Plumbing, we recommend an annual plumbing inspection for your Columbia home. Many homeowners pass on the inspection not realizing its importance in your regular home maintenance.
