When you call for burst pipe repair in West Haven, CT, take several steps to minimize damage before our plumber arrives. First, turn off the water to the affected area. You may have to shut off the main water line. Next, drain the remaining water from the pipes, mop up excess water, and remove furniture and other nearby items.
