Cleaning up properly is critical to making sure the busted pipes don’t create even more issues down the road.

ou can use towels and a mop to dry the floor or for more serious leaks, rent or buy a wet dry shop vacuum from your local hardware store to get all the water up.

Now that the suns starting to come back out, you may want to open doors and windows to bring in fresh dry air. Also, put a few fans around the wet area.

If the busted pipe is severe enough, you should call a professional water restoration company. If there is obvious wall damage, floor damage, or signs that mold may be growing, this may be your best option. Keep in mind, the more time that passes without treatment, the more those busted pipes will cause an even bigger headache.

If you do have to call professionals, your insurance may cover it. Call your insurance agent to find out.
