Water damage can only ever get worse, so make sure to shut off your water main and call a plumber as soon as you're aware of a leak.
Does homeowners' insurance cover pipe repair?
Most homeowners' insurance policies cover sudden, unexpected water damage. However, it’s typically not covered if you could have prevented it with the proper maintenance. If you're aware that a pipe has been leaking for some time, and you don't fix it, your insurance probably won't cover the repairs.
If you're not sure what your policy covers, check with your homeowners' insurance.
What are the signs of a burst pipe?
The following signs may indicate that one or more pipes have burst:
Indoor flooding
Water dripping on the walls or ceiling
Reduced water pressure
Discolored water
A sulfur-like smell
How long does pipe repair take?
The time it takes to repair a pipe depends on the extent of the damage and the pipe material. Simple repairs to exposed PEX pipes may take a few minutes, while copper pipe behind a wall may take 1 to 4 hours. Underground sewer pipe repairs typically take 3 hours to 2 days.
Can you repair cracked PVC pipe?

My almost deaf elderly in-laws needed a plumber do to a blocked toilet, and of course this happened on a Saturday. I jumped on Yelp and started calling around and discovered that most companies were not available until later that evening, it was around 12:30 pm when I started. I finally called Solid Plumbing & Drains and Mario answered his phone right away and was sure he could have someone out there in 2 hours. He stated that if they could make it sooner they would let us know, and sure enough they called and were able to arrive within an hour. Mario and his crew were unable to reach the obstruction with a snake and determined it was further down the line. Since there was not an exterior clean-out Mario had to remove the toilet and to clear the blockage....
