I am a small person that can crawl underneath possibly and give you feedback. I am not a plumber, just a small person. But I would be happy to help.

Call around but I use Delong or far better. It’s not going to be cheap but my guess is around 300-400

I would call budget plumbing heating and air. I’m a contractor and they do all of our plumbing and hvac. Tell them Zach sent you and they will hook you up. He’s our team leader.

This is totally just a guess but I'd say just start calling places because everyone is gonna be swamped and charging extra after this so I feel like it's going to be a bit variable and first come first deal/service

United Plumbing has become our go to years ago. Used several of the more well known plumbing companies before that. United blows them out of the water.

Gonna have to wait I think. If they're frozen, you won't be able to tell yet and not all frozen pipes burst.

Anytime it gets cold like this and you have snow on the ground, try and put all the snow you can around the foundation crawlspace. It will help insulate. When it got to -14 I spent prob an hour prob putting a foot thick layer all around. No guarantee but it could prob make a couple degree difference which could mean frozen/not frozen.

I've used All Klear, they're honest but as for price for frozen pipes I don't know.

One of our old service guys at our commercial plumbing place started his own company, Sothern Plumbing. I used him before and it was just a cheap cash in hand deal.

Edit: if you're under a budget gun, PEX and crimp fittings are very cheap and easy to work with repairing a small section.

Did you lose heat for a bit? Just curious how they froze in the crawlspace. Typically they would stay warm enough to keep from freezing.

If possible check your water meter. When I worked at CU the bottoms of meters would freeze all the time because the meter pits aren't insulated.

I would say the meter probly isn't frozen than.

If you haven’t called anyone yet, we really like United Plumbing; they’re 24/7.

I can vouch for the work of Action Rooter plumbing. Mark came out to my home and did amazing work, cleaned up after himself, and made sure the problem was actually fixed before leaving. Don't really know what the cost would be though, I had completely different work done.

A&D Mechanical Services is my main choice for plumbing repairs and if they are busy my second choice is United Plumbing.

I am 5’4” in height. I weigh maybe 120 at most. I am a small person. But that is cool. But for your pipes when it gets this cold let your faucets do a small drip when it is the coldest. That running water will help your pipes to not freeze. Based on my knowledge alone.

But!!!! You cannot let them freeze and then do that. I mean you can, but I wouldn’t. Also for your windows and car windows. Try isopropyl alcohol and don’t use water. That has always worked for me in the past at least. Again, I am not a pro in this.
