Burst pipe cleanup starts with the shutoff. If water is still running, close the main valve, which in most Plainfield homes sits in the basement where the water line comes through the foundation wall. Then call us.

Pipes burst for a few reasons. Copper develops pinhole leaks over time. Older PEX fittings crack. Washing machine hoses split, and a broken supply line under a sink can run for hours while nobody is home. In winter, a pipe in an exterior wall or over an unheated garage freezes and splits.

A burst pipe on the first floor usually means water in the ceiling below and in the basement. We extract the standing water, open the ceiling where it is saturated so it doesn't sag and fall, and trace the water path with a thermal camera. Water runs along joists and ductwork, so the wet area is often bigger than the stain.

Supply line water is clean when it starts. After it sits for a day or two, it isn't. That is why we move quickly on burst pipe jobs.

Have a plumber fix the pipe itself. We handle the cleanup, structural drying and ceiling leak water damage tear out, and we document the loss for your claim. Winter bursts get more detail on our frozen pipe water damage page.

Burst Pipe Cleanup FAQs

Questions about Burst Pipe Cleanup and water damage restoration

Questions we hear most often about Burst Pipe Cleanup in Plainfield, IL.

Talk to our crew
Is basement flooding covered by my homeowner policy?
It depends on the cause. A sudden pipe burst or a water heater that rusts through is usually covered under a typical homeowner policy. Sewer backup and sump pump overflow often need a water backup rider. Overland flooding from rain or a river usually needs a separate flood policy. We document the cause so your adjuster can sort out which coverage applies.
Do you have to cut out my drywall?
Not always. If drywall got wet from clean water and we get to it fast, injection drying can sometimes save it. If it wicked water high, sat wet for more than a day or two, or touched sewage, it comes out with a flood cut, usually 2 or 4 feet off the floor.
Can wet basement carpet be saved?
The carpet often can if the water was clean and it has not sat for days. The pad underneath almost always gets replaced because it holds water like a sponge. Carpet soaked by sewer backup or river water is removed.
Do you work directly with my adjuster?
Yes. We send photos, daily moisture logs and an itemized list of removed materials, and we can talk to your adjuster about the cause of loss. We can't tell you what your policy covers, but we can give the adjuster what they need to decide.
Do you fix the pipe or replace the sump pump?
Our work is the cleanup, tear out, drying and mold removal. When a pump, pipe or roof caused the water, we tell you what we found so you can call a plumber or roofer to fix the source.
