Houston is locked into another night of freezing temperatures and plumbers prepare for a lot of calls on busted pipes around the city.

"It’s been crazy," said Mark Simecki, a technician with Abacus Plumbing. "We’re starting to see a high number of calls come in. The switchboard is full. We don’t have the power to get to all of them. We’re having to prioritize."

"Last night, we bled the house dry," said Charlie Moger, a homeowner in west Houston. "There was nothing in there to burst the pipe. Unfortunately, the valve on the side of the house is frozen. So, we have to wait until it gets warm and thaws before we get water in the house. Then, we’ll find out if we have any leaks or anything."
