FAQ

Burst Pipe Water Damage Repair Questions Answered

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.

Water damage is the contractor's focus. A licensed plumber repairs the pipe, often arranged by the contractor.

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

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

No. A Water Damage is a free referral service connecting you with independent, licensed and insured local contractors who do the work.
