Fast Burst Pipe Water Damage Repair in Effingham, IL After a Freeze

The overnight low dropped well below freezing, and a copper line in the exterior wall froze solid. When it thawed the next afternoon, the split opened up and sprayed water into the wall cavity and across the living room floor. Burst pipes release a lot of water fast, and most of it ends up where you cannot see it.

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.

Aaron M.Failed PEX fitting, ceiling
