A burst pipe in Dripping Springs can release thousands of gallons of water before it's discovered — saturating walls, subfloor assemblies, ceiling cavities, and cabinetry within hours. COS Water Damage Restoration's Dripping Springs burst pipe team responds fast, locates the source, coordinates the repair, and drives the full cleanup and drying process from the moment we arrive to the final walkthrough.
The thing that separates a burst pipe cleanup done right from one done poorly is the ability to find and dry the water you can't see. Wall cavities, subfloor assemblies, and ceiling voids absorb water fast and dry slowly — and if any moisture is left behind, mold follows within days. Here's what makes COS Water Damage Restoration the right call in Dripping Springs.
You can't dry what you haven't found. Thermal imaging is how we find it.
Fast arrival with the right equipment is how burst pipe losses are kept manageable.
Our Dripping Springs team arrives, secures the water source (shutting the main if necessary), and directly coordinates with a licensed plumber to complete the pipe repair before cleanup begins. We've established working relationships with licensed plumbing contractors across Dripping Springs and TX — so you're not trying to find a plumber at 2am while water is still running.
Burst pipe claims in Dripping Springs require moisture mapping data, pre-drying and post-drying readings, Xactimate line-item scopes, and photo documentation. Our Dripping Springs team builds this file from the first tool we pick up — so when your adjuster requests documentation, everything they need is already prepared and formatted to their carrier's standard.
From the moment we arrive at your Dripping Springs property, COS Water Damage Restoration manages the complete scope of burst pipe recovery — source control, extraction, wall cavity access, structural drying, and rebuild. Every phase under one crew, one scope, one invoice.
The first priority when our Dripping Springs crew arrives is stopping the water source. If the affected valve or supply line is accessible, we isolate it directly. If the break is inside a wall or in an inaccessible location, we shut the main supply and work with a licensed plumber to locate and repair the rupture before cleanup begins. Stopping the source is not the cleanup company's job in a literal trade sense — but it's absolutely the first 15 minutes of our time on every Dripping Springs burst pipe call, and we coordinate it aggressively.
After source control, high-volume extraction removes the standing water and saturated surface materials as fast as possible. Our Dripping Springs burst pipe crew uses truck-mounted extraction systems for high-volume situations and portable extractors for confined spaces. After visible water is removed, we run weighted carpet wands, floor squeegees, and cavity extraction on wall framing to pull as much residual moisture as possible before structural drying equipment is staged. The more you extract, the faster and more complete the structural drying cycle.
FLIR thermal cameras and calibrated pin-type and non-penetrating moisture meters map the full extent of water migration through your Dripping Springs property's structural assemblies. Burst pipe water moves through wall cavities and floor systems rapidly and can saturate framing far from the visible wet surface. Our Dripping Springs moisture mapping creates a documented baseline — showing exactly where the water went, how saturated it is, and how far from the rupture point the damage extends. This map drives the drying scope and the insurance documentation.
The most common source of post-burst-pipe mold in Dripping Springs properties is wet wall cavities that were never properly dried. After moisture mapping confirms the extent of saturation, our Dripping Springs drying crew drills access holes at the base of affected walls, inserts directional air nozzles, and drives airflow through the framing cavity behind the drywall. LGR dehumidifiers pull the evaporated moisture out of the air. Daily psychrometric readings track drywall, framing, and subfloor moisture until every assembly reaches its documented equilibrium moisture content target.
Insurance complexity is handled by our team, not handed off to you.
Once every structural assembly has been confirmed dry by instrument reading, our licensed Dripping Springs reconstruction team rebuilds: drywall replacement and finish, fresh paint, flooring reinstallation, baseboard and trim, and any cabinetry affected by the pipe location. If the pipe burst behind cabinetry, we coordinate cabinet reinstallation after the repair is complete. All reconstruction work uses the same Xactimate line-item format as the mitigation scope — so your insurer sees one integrated claim file, not separate invoices from separate contractors.


Live dispatch. Immediate crew deployment. ETA confirmed during your call.
Our Dripping Springs crew arrives with truck-mounted extraction, FLIR thermal cameras, moisture meters, and drying equipment — configured for burst pipe response from the first roll. We locate and secure the water source immediately, coordinate the plumber if needed, and begin moisture mapping within the first 30 minutes on site.
After moisture mapping is complete, our Dripping Springs project manager prepares a written, Xactimate-based scope covering extraction, material removal, wall cavity drying, equipment staging, and reconstruction. You review the scope before any equipment is deployed or material is removed. If the adjuster is involved, our coordinator files the claim the same day.
Daily updates, documented readings, final walkthrough with you — every time.



"A pipe in our kitchen wall burst while we were at work and water ran for several hours before a neighbor spotted it. COS Water Damage Restoration arrived in under an hour, shut the water source, had a plumber at the house within 90 minutes of their arrival, and started extraction before the plumber finished the repair. The thermal imaging they did showed water migration we never would have found — all the way down through the subfloor into the crawlspace below. Two weeks later, everything was dry, rebuilt, and our insurance claim was settled. They handled all of it."
"What impressed me most was the moisture mapping session. Our burst pipe was in the second-floor bathroom, and COS Water Damage Restoration's tech found water in the wall cavity adjacent to the pipe, inside the ceiling of the first floor below, and along a wall run in the living room — none of which had any visible surface water. They set up drying for all of it, hit it with daily readings, and everything came back confirmed dry before reconstruction started. That level of thoroughness is exactly what you want from a company doing this type of work."
"Three years after our Dripping Springs burst pipe incident handled by COS Water Damage Restoration, there has been no mold, no musty odor, and no re-emergence of moisture. They dried it correctly the first time. That's ultimately what you're paying for."
