Taking Care of Burst Pipes

When temperatures dip below freezing, the risk of a pipe bursting is higher than ever. If that happens in your home, the clean-up of the aftermath can be even more important than the pipe repair.

Depending on where the pipe has burst, there might be a number of different areas impacted by the water, including:

• Electrical systems (contact a professional to help with water damaged electrical systems, there is a high risk of electric shock)
• Walls, baseboard, or wallpaper
• Floors or subfloor
• Furniture, carpet, and other personal items
