What Should I Do Immediately When a Burst Pipe Happens?

Shut off your home’s main water valve, then call Summers Plumbing Heating & Cooling for 24/7 emergency pipe repair. We handle burst and frozen pipes and use less-invasive line locating when needed. In Elkhart and South Bend, licensed techs give upfront pricing before work starts.

  • Turn off power to wet areas if water is near outlets.
  • Open faucets to drain lines and reduce pressure.
  • Move valuables, set buckets/towels, and photograph damage.
  • Avoid DIY thawing or cutting; wait for a technician.
