Burst galvanized pipes inside walls
Why it happens here
Galvanized steel corrodes from the inside out and eventually fails under normal water pressure. In Granger, many homes still have original galvanized lines, so a pinhole leak or full burst can happen without warning, usually inside a wall or under a slab.
Our approach
We shut off the water, use an inspection camera to find the break, and open only the wet section of wall. We extract the water, dry the studs and insulation with air movers, and check the subfloor with a moisture meter before we close it up.
