Pipe in the exterior wall froze and split during the cold snap. The contractor opened the wall, had a plumber replace the section, dried it, and rebuilt it within the week.

The PEX fitting under the upstairs bathroom let go and came through the kitchen ceiling. They cut out the wet ceiling, dried the joists, and patched it perfectly.

Common questions

Common Burst Pipe Water Damage Repair Questions

Shut off the main water valve, open faucets to drain pressure, turn off power to wet areas, and call for help. Then move valuables away from the water.

Sudden bursts usually are. Freeze damage in an unheated home may not be, so confirm with your agent.

The restoration contractor handles the water damage. The pipe itself should be repaired by a licensed plumber, and many contractors can coordinate that for you.

Look for soft drywall, bubbling paint, or stains near the burst. A thermal camera and moisture meter will confirm it without guesswork.

Insulate pipes in exterior walls, crawl spaces, and attics, keep heat on when you travel, open cabinet doors on cold nights, and let faucets drip during hard freezes.

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