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 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.

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.

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