Burst Pipe Water Damage in Delta, BC
North Delta bursts drop through a split-level ceiling from a line in the upper wall. Ladner bursts often let go under the floor, into the crawl, where nobody sees them until the hatch smells warm and wet.
Tsawwassen ranches hide the split in an attic or a ceiling. Annacis is a wet sprinkler or a domestic line over a bay, not a rec room.
Splits over a Nordel rec room
The lid comes down in the wet bays. The upper floor is metered. Carpet below comes out if the pad is soaked. We photograph the pipe, not only the stain.
Lines in a Ladner crawl
We open the hatch, pull wet insulation, and find the split. The finished room above is opened only where the subfloor is wet. A sump failure is a different cause if the pipe is intact.
Sprinkler versus domestic on Annacis
A sprinkler head dumps a lot of clean water fast. A domestic line is smaller. Both wet inventory. We say which one so the bay is not dried like a house.

Questions from this area
Burst Pipe Damage in Delta: common questions
The crawl pipe dripped for weeks. Is it still a burst?
If the line failed, yes, even if it was slow. We dry what is wet now and note how far the staining goes.
Do you repair copper in the crawl?
No. A plumber does. We will not dry over a line that is still dripping, so the repair comes first or we isolate it.
Is Beach Grove more crawl pipes than split-levels?
Yes. Low houses, lines under the floor. Nordel is the split-level ceiling.
