Burst Pipe Work Through Our Network
Here's what burst pipe calls usually involve.
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
A neat, square access cut gets to the pipe without unnecessary damage. 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. Options include spot repair through the slab or rerouting the line through walls or attic.
Failed Fittings & Supply Lines
Braided toilet and faucet supplies, angle stops, and fittings fail as often as pipes. The bad part is replaced and neighboring fittings are inspected.
Freeze Protection & Insulation
After repair, vulnerable lines can get foam pipe insulation or heat cable to prevent a repeat. Contractors can also point out lines that should be rerouted away from cold walls.

— Greg F., MurrysvilleA braided toilet supply line let go while we were out. They replaced the hose and angle stop, extracted the water, and dried the subfloor.

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?
It's usually where the water line enters the house, often in a basement, crawl space, garage, or utility room, or near the water heater. Some homes have it in an exterior box 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?
Both work. PEX tolerates freeze-expansion better and installs fast, while copper is rigid and very durable. Local code and your current piping guide the choice.
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.
