A frozen pipe does not burst while it is frozen. It bursts when it thaws, and suddenly a supply line under full pressure is pumping water into your wall, ceiling, or crawl space. The repair has two parts: get the pipe fixed, and fix everything the water touched.

Burst pipe water usually travels inside walls, through ceiling joists, and along subfloors. The repair has to follow it everywhere it went.

The pro uses infrared and meters to follow the water path from the break to every wet material.
Drywall and insulation around the break come out so the pipe can be fixed and the cavity can dry.
Standing water is extracted, then air movers and dehumidifiers dry the framing, subfloor, and any remaining drywall to dry standard.
A licensed plumber repairs or replaces the burst section, whether copper, PEX, CPVC, or galvanized. Many restoration pros can arrange this for you.
After drying, new insulation goes in, drywall is hung and finished, texture is matched, and the room is painted.
Let dispatch know the water is off and roughly how long it ran.
You will get a call with an arrival window and help locating the shutoff if needed.
Expect moisture mapping and a written estimate before any walls are opened.

Sudden bursts are often covered, but damage from a slow leak or a pipe that froze because heat was left off may be treated differently. Check your policy with your agent.
