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.

Triple C Services sent out the most wonderful gentleman to come clear a clog I had in my basement. I literally had toilet paper and poop everywhere. Luckily Alex and his guys were able to snake the line, clear the clog and showed me how efficient they were at not only clearing the clog but they were able to clean my basement spotless. It was a comforting sight seeing them take passion in their work as well as them quickly addressing the issue shortly after I called. They were the best company I have ever dealt with and from now on will be the only company I use for my drain cleaning needs.
