Flood Prevention: How to Handle a Burst Water Line & Avoid Damp Basements

A burst water line can be both confusing and stressful due to the various factors to consider when determining the source of the leak, its location, and the necessary repairs. The most common sign of a burst water line is visible water around or inside your home, such as flooding or a wet basement or foundation wall. However, it is important to note that the water may not necessarily be originating from the water line; water often travels and looks for the weakest point in the ground, which can be up to 20 feet away from the source of the leak.

Plumbing problems can be caused by a number of issues, including a leak or break in the main waterline, cracked, damaged, or tree roots in the sewer lines, failure of the drain tiles, or blocked connections between your home and the water line system. These issues can cause major problems, such as water getting into the basement or crawl space, low water pressure, backups, and overflowing of the water line. Here at Drain Master Plumbers, we offer our plumbing expertise and services to residential and commercial customers in the Lower Mainland area.

Burst pipes in the water system is a common plumbing issue and can be caused by freezing conditions, pipe failure due to age, misuse, or damage, and the pressure from the system. The effects of burst pipes can be devastating, leading to property damage, displacement, and closure of entire areas. This can leave people without water and can last for days, making it essential to contact an emergency plumber as soon as possible.
