More About A Frozen Pipe Damages Your Home While You’re Away: What Should You Do First?💧
You return from vacation and discover water on the floor. A frozen pipe has burst while you were away. What happens next can make a difference.
1. Stop the water if you safely can: Shut off the main water supply or the affected line. If you cannot safely do this, contact a professional immediately.
2. Prevent more damage: Move belongings away from the water if it is safe to do so. A plumber or restoration professional can help address the immediate problem.
3. Document everything: Take photographs and videos of the damage before cleanup whenever possible. Keep receipts for emergency repairs and other related expenses. 📸
Then contact your insurance agent and report the loss. Your agent can explain the claims process and help you understand what information may be needed.
Dealing with a burst pipe is stressful enough. If winter damage catches you off guard, reach out to Agent Bill Schmauch from State Farm Insurance for guidance on what comes next. 👨💼
