What Are Frozen Pipes?
Frozen pipes occur when the water inside your plumbing system freezes due to extremely low temperatures. When water freezes, it expands, putting pressure on the pipes and often causing them to crack or burst. Common causes of frozen pipes include poor insulation, drafts, or unheated spaces like basements or crawl spaces.
In Grande Prairie’s freezing winters, frozen pipes are a common issue for both homeowners and businesses. TMK Plumbing & Heating LTD. offers professional plumbing, expertise, and tools needed to address these challenges quickly and effectively.
Our process starts with a thorough inspection of your plumbing system. Using advanced tools, we locate frozen or damaged pipes and identify areas prone to future freezing.
Our technicians use professional-grade heating tools and equipment to carefully thaw frozen pipes. We ensure this is done safely to avoid damaging the pipes or your plumbing system.
If pipes are cracked or burst, we provide immediate repairs or replacements. To prevent future issues, we offer insulation services, heating solutions, and tips tailored to Grande Prairie’s extreme winters.

Most faucet installations in Grande Prairie homes take between 1-2 hours to complete properly. A straightforward replacement where we're swapping out an old faucet for a similar model typically takes about an hour. However, if you're upgrading to a different style of faucet, installing additional features like a soap dispenser or water filtration system, or if we discover issues with your existing plumbing connections during the installation, it may take closer to 2 hours or slightly longer.
We never rush a job just to save time. Taking the proper time to ensure every connection is secure, testing for leaks, and verifying proper water pressure is what allows us to stand behind our done-right guarantee. If you're in an older Grande Prairie home where we might encounter corroded pipes or non-standard connections, we'll let you know upfront if we anticipate any additional time requirements.
Yes, we're happy to install faucets that you've purchased yourself from a local Grande Prairie retailer or online. Many homeowners enjoy choosing their own fixtures to match their specific style preferences and budget. However, we do recommend consulting with us before you buy, especially if you're unsure about compatibility with your existing plumbing setup.
We can advise you on whether your chosen faucet will work with your sink configuration, water pressure, and pipe connections. This simple consultation can save you the hassle of returning an incompatible faucet. Keep in mind that when you purchase a faucet independently, any manufacturer defects or issues with the fixture itself aren't covered under our installation guarantee – but our installation workmanship is always guaranteed. If you'd prefer, we can also source and supply quality faucets for you, which gives you the benefit of both product and installation warranties.
We install all major faucet brands available in Grande Prairie and across North America. Whether you've chosen a Moen, Delta, Kohler, Pfister, American Standard, Grohe, or any other brand, our technicians have the experience to install it correctly. We're familiar with the specific installation requirements and quirks of each manufacturer.
That said, based on our years of experience serving Grande Prairie homes, we do have brand recommendations that perform particularly well in our climate and water conditions. Our hard water and temperature extremes can be tough on plumbing fixtures, so we often suggest brands known for durability and easy maintenance. If you're unsure which brand to choose, we're happy to share our professional insights based on what we've seen last longest and perform best for local homeowners. We have no brand affiliations – our recommendations are based purely on real-world performance in Grande Prairie homes.
Yes, we offer same-day faucet installation throughout Grande Prairie whenever possible. If you call us in the morning with a faucet that needs replacement, there's a good chance we can have a technician at your home that same afternoon. This is especially helpful for emergencies, like a faucet that's broken off completely or leaking uncontrollably, where waiting days for service simply isn't an option.
For same-day service, availability depends on our current schedule and the complexity of your installation. A straightforward replacement is much easier to fit into our day than a complex installation requiring special parts or extensive modifications. We always do our best to accommodate urgent needs, and because we're a local Grande Prairie company, we can often be more flexible than larger franchise operations.
Even if you don't need emergency service, just give us a call and we'll work to find the soonest available time slot that works for your schedule. And remember, we're available 24/7, so even if your faucet emergency happens at midnight on a Saturday, we're here to help.
The cost of faucet installation varies depending on several factors: the type of faucet being installed, the complexity of the job, whether any additional plumbing work is needed, and whether you're supplying the faucet or having us provide it. A basic bathroom faucet replacement typically costs less than installing a high-end kitchen faucet with multiple features.
We provide transparent, upfront pricing with no hidden fees. When you call for a quote, we'll ask a few questions about your current setup and your new faucet, then give you an honest estimate. If we discover any unexpected issues during the installation like corroded pipes that need replacement we'll discuss the additional work and costs with you before proceeding.
Preparing for your faucet installation is simple. First, clear out the area under your sink so our technician has easy access to the water supply lines and connections. This means removing cleaning supplies, trash cans, or any other items stored in the cabinet. For kitchen installations, we'll also need access to the area around your sink, so clearing the countertop makes the job go more smoothly.
If you haven't already purchased your new faucet, have it on-site before we arrive (unless we're supplying it for you). Make sure you have all the components and hardware that came with the faucet, we'll check everything before starting the installation.
There's no need to turn off your water or disconnect anything yourself. Our technicians will handle all of that. We do ask that you identify where your main water shut-off valve is located, just in case we need to access it. In most Grande Prairie homes, this is typically in the basement, utility room, or sometimes in a crawl space.
Finally, if you have any concerns or questions about your existing plumbing, jot them down so you can discuss them with our technician when they arrive. We're always happy to answer questions and provide advice on maintaining your plumbing system.
