At Frozen Pipe Leak Removal Pros, the priority is water left by a frozen pipe above the living space. Water can soak attic insulation and ceiling board before dripping into occupied rooms. A plumber handles the pipe; the water damage crew addresses the wet structure and contents.
A shutoff can stop fresh water without drying what has already entered the wall. The drying crew tests the cavity and sets equipment as needed.
