In-depth
How Our Burst Pipe Cleanup Process Works
Burst pipes are one of the most common causes of residential water damage, and they can happen at any time. Frozen pipes in winter, corroded pipes in older homes, high water pressure, and shifting foundations all contribute to pipe failures. A single burst supply line can release 400-600 gallons per hour, and if it happens while you are away or asleep, the damage can be catastrophic.
Our burst pipe cleanup process begins with an emergency response to stop the water flow. Once the supply is shut off, we immediately begin extraction using truck-mounted and portable units. Thermal imaging cameras help us trace the full extent of water migration — water from a second-floor burst can travel through wall cavities, pool on first-floor ceilings, and saturate basement areas, all within hours.
After extraction, we assess which materials can be dried in place and which need removal. Modern injection drying technology allows us to dry many wall cavities without full demolition, saving you significant reconstruction costs. We drill small access holes, insert drying nozzles, and monitor internal cavity moisture until target levels are reached. This approach preserves paint, trim, and finishes wherever possible.
Throughout the process, we document everything for your insurance claim. Burst pipe damage is typically covered under standard homeowner policies as sudden and accidental water damage. Our estimators prepare detailed Xactimate reports that insurance adjusters trust, helping ensure your claim is processed quickly and fairly.
