Q: Recently the weather droppedbelow freezing for a few days. When
we came home from work, we noticed
we had no water coming from our
kitchen sink. I checked all other
faucets, and they are fine. Is there a
way to unthaw the pipes without
having to tear into the wall?
A: There is no easy solution orquick fix for frozen pipes. The wall
where the pipe is frozen needs to be
heated from both sides (tented on the
outside if necessary).
The real problem lies in the fact that if
the pipe is frozen it is more than likely
cracked also. So, once defrosted
you're left with a broken and flooding
pipe in the wall.
You need to call a professional plumber
who will more than likely need to open
the wall from one side, find the frozen
area, defrost it, repair the crack and
test it.
Then you will need to insulate the pipe
and wall cavity and patch the wall. The
problem will persist in all uninsulated
exterior wall cavities where pipe is run,
so plan ahead and schedule the work
to start this spring. •

WHAT DO I DO FORFROZEN PIPES?
In the past, the bathroom has been thoughtof as a strictly utilitarian space. You get in,
take care of your business, and get out. But
these days, savvy homeowners are taking
another look at the bathroom, and finding
that it's a great place to bring quality of life
into the home. Bathroom design these days
blends both form and function, and creates a
space where you can relax in your very own
spa.
Showers and BathsThe shower or bath tub is a great place to
start your bathroom design project. A large
whirlpool bathtub is beautiful and luxurious.
Manufacturers now make them in all sizes
and shapes, with massaging jets, headrests,
footrests, lumbar support—you name it. On
the other hand, if your space is limited,
stand-alone showers have come a long way.
The latest trend is multiple showerheads for a
more relaxing experience. "Rain" overhead
showerheads are also very popular and can
provide an instant upgrade for your bathroom
without a whole lot of hassle.
FloorsTraditional porcelain tile is durable,
straightforward, and sensible, but these days,
ceramic and stone are the materials of
choice. Consider not only color, but texture,
too. Laminate wood flooring is a popular
option for folks who love the look of
hardwood but don't want the upkeep. And for
real luxury, nothing beats a heated floor.
Electrically-heated flooring keeps your feet
warm on those cold winter mornings and
radiates warmth through your whole
bathroom.
VanitiesThe bathroom vanity is the quickest and
easiest way to give your bathroom a
makeover. Sinks come in a range from the
traditional to the ultra-modern. Vessel sinks,
with basins that sit on top of (as opposed to
being recessed into) the countertop, are all
the rage these days. They come in marble,
ceramic, glass, and more, and in every
design you can think of. As for the vanity
itself, your choices range from French
Countryside to Ultramod and everything in
between. A beautiful vanity sets the tone for
the whole room and is a cornerstone of
modern bathroom design. And don't forget
the faucet: it's another great way to
personalize your space.
MirrorsThey used to be simple: rectangular, with the
old rounded edges, maybe a medicine
cabinet hiding behind there. But in modern
bathroom design, the mirror is another great
way to bring personality to your most
personal of rooms. They come in all kinds of
shapes and sizes, with borders of everything
from mahogany to mosaic, even snakeskin!
Fog-free mirrors are the latest innovation;
they save you time in the morning as you go
from showering to your morning beauty ritual.
LightingAnother great, and often overlooked, aspect
of bathroom design is lighting. Vanity lighting
above the mirror is useful when you're
shaving or getting ready to go out, of course,
but you might also consider using recessed
or spot lighting to highlight certain features of
your bathroom and give the place an airy feel.
Lighting designs have come a long way and
are the perfect finishing touch for a modern
bathroom design.
When remodeling, be sure to consider all of
these various aspects of bathroom design to
create a space that is truly personal and
unique. •

CUSTOMER REVIEW
Larry from McHales was our project manager
for our master bathroom renovation. He is a
talented carpenter who customized several
things in the bathroom. He created a new
base for a cabinet to match another cabinet,
removed and and adjusted a windowsill width
just enough to allow drawer opening space to
name just a few. His motto for our reno was,
"Its your bathroom, whatever you want!" The
bathroom is gorgeous. We love it! After the
completion McHales has been attentive to a
few adjustments we have wanted to make as
well. Their employees are very courteous and
clearly aim to please the customer.
