A house built before 1960 may retain sections of steel plumbing. The plumber checks the source while the crew dries any resulting flood.
Thawing a frozen section can reveal a split that was hidden by ice. The water damage team responds to the resulting flood. Homeowners can keep plumber records separate from extraction logs. The insurer decides how the policy applies.
