Burst Pipe Work Through Our Network
Pipe failures come in a few common forms.
Frozen & Split Pipe Repair
Pipes in exterior walls, attics, and crawl spaces split when ice expands inside them. The damaged length is replaced, frequently with more freeze-tolerant PEX.
Wall & Ceiling Access Openings
To reach the break, the contractor opens a clean, measured section of drywall rather than a ragged hole. That same opening helps dry the wall cavity.
Slab & Under-Floor Leak Repair
A warm spot on the floor, a running meter, or the sound of water under the slab can mean a burst line in the foundation. Repairs may go through the slab or reroute the line overhead.
Failed Fittings & Supply Lines
Braided toilet and faucet supplies, angle stops, and fittings fail as often as pipes. Contractors replace the failed part and check nearby fittings.
Freeze Protection & Insulation
Pipe insulation and heat tape help keep the problem from happening again. They'll flag lines that run through cold spaces.

When the Pipe Gave Out
These callers all heard water running inside a wall.
A pipe in our exterior wall froze during a cold snap and split when it thawed. The contractor replaced the section with PEX, pressure-tested it, and had the wall drying the same day.
— Greg F., Acres GreenA braided toilet supply line let go while we were out. The pro replaced the line and valve, pulled the water, and dried the floor.
— Teresa V., Acres GreenOur floor was warm and the meter kept spinning. They found the slab leak and rerouted the line through the attic so we didn't lose the floor.

What should I do first when a pipe bursts?
Shut off the main water valve right away, then turn off electricity to any wet areas if you can do it safely. Open a faucet to drain pressure, move belongings out of the way, and call for help.
Where is my main water shutoff valve?
Look where the supply enters the home: basement wall, crawl space, garage, or near the water heater. In warmer areas it may be outside near the meter.
Why do pipes burst when they freeze?
Ice expands inside the line and pushes pressure toward the closed fixture. The pipe splits under that pressure and leaks when it thaws.
Is PEX better than copper for repairs?
PEX is flexible, handles freezing better, and is quicker to install, which makes it popular for repairs. Copper is durable and long-lasting. The contractor will recommend what fits your existing system and local code.
Does insurance cover a burst pipe?
Sudden, accidental bursts are commonly covered, including resulting water damage. The pipe repair itself may or may not be covered, and damage from a long-term slow leak or lack of heat in a vacant home can be excluded.
How long does a wall take to dry after a burst pipe?
Typically two to four days. The contractor measures moisture daily and closes the wall only when readings are normal.
