- Locate before you cutAcoustic and thermal tools narrow it down so we open the smallest opening that gets the job done.
- Repair the sectionSplit sections are cut out and replaced. We do not patch over a failure that will reopen.

- Prevent the repeatIf it froze, we insulate, reroute or add a shutoff so the same run does not split next winter.

- Immediate isolation to stop further damage
- Leak location before opening any wall
- Copper, PEX, CPVC and galvanized repair
- Pressure test on the repaired section

Burst Pipe Repair reviews from Conover
Garbage disposal was humming and I assumed it was dead. Turned out to be a jam plus a partly blocked trap arm. Cleared both, no new unit needed. Appreciated the honesty.
Kevin T.Conover, NCOur irrigation backflow failed its test. They came out, fitted a repair kit, retested and filed the paperwork with the water department. I did not have to chase anything.
Simone B.Conover, NCWoke up to water coming through the kitchen ceiling. Called at 5am and had someone at the house before 7. He found the split line, showed me the failed fitting, and had it repaired and pressure tested by mid-morning. The price he quoted at the start is what I paid.
Marcus D.Conover, NCBurst Pipe Repair in Conover: common questions
What do I do right now if a pipe burst in my Conover home?
Close the main shutoff, then open the lowest faucet in the house to drain the pipes and stop the flow. If water is near electrical panels or fixtures, cut power to that circuit. Then call (833) 435-9778.
Why do pipes burst in North Carolina?
Mostly hard freezes on lines run through crawlspaces, exterior walls and unheated garages - Conover sees enough cold snaps for that. The rest are failed fittings, pinhole corrosion in old copper, and pressure over 80 psi.
Will you have to tear out my wall?
We open the smallest section that lets us make a sound repair, and we locate first rather than cutting blind. Most Conover repairs need one access opening, not a demolished wall.
Is this covered by insurance?
Sudden pipe failures usually are, gradual leaks usually are not. We photograph the failure and write the cause on the invoice, which is what adjusters ask for.
Can you repair a slab leak too?
Yes. Under-slab failures are located electronically and either spot repaired or rerouted overhead, and we will explain which makes sense for your Conover home.
