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.

Soft spots and stains are clues. Infrared imaging and meters give you a definite answer.

Insulate exposed pipes, keep the heat on, open sink cabinets, and drip faucets on very cold nights.

No. We connect you with independent local pros. Verify their license and insurance before work starts.
