The water from a burst pipe hides in walls and ceilings. Every one of those spots needs to be opened, dried, and repaired.

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.
Water is removed and drying equipment runs until the structure reads dry.
The broken line gets repaired by a licensed plumber, often coordinated by the restoration contractor.
Once dry, insulation, drywall, texture, and paint are replaced so the room looks like it did before.
