The cost of repairing a burst pipe can vary widely depending on its location, accessibility, the extent of the damage and whether emergency work is needed. A plumber may charge a call-out fee plus labour, parts and any charges for water-damaged walls, flooring or cabinetry. Turn off the water at the mains, move valuables away and contact a licensed plumber promptly to limit further damage. Check your home insurance policy and speak with your insurer before authorising major repairs, as cover depends on the policy and circumstances.
