Why this one can't wait
A half-inch supply line pushes out roughly a bathtub of water every few minutes, and it runs under flooring and inside walls first - the part you can't see is always bigger than the part you can. Fast extraction is the difference between drying your floors and replacing them.
Sudden pipe failures are typically covered, and insurers expect fast mitigation once it's safe. Ask the contractor about documentation and coordination with your adjuster.
Local to Bexar County
San Antonio sits on karst limestone at the edge of Flash Flood Alley - heavy rain runs off fast and finds garages, sunken living rooms, and anything downslope. Hard water scales aging supply lines until they fail, and the occasional hard freeze catches uninsulated pipes in attics and exterior walls that were never built for it.
Texas policies commonly carry a separate percentage deductible for wind and hail - a different number than your flat deductible, worth checking before storm season. Sudden water losses like burst pipes fall under the standard deductible.

Burst pipe questions
Plumber or restoration crew first?
Restoration first if water is standing - the crew coordinates the pipe repair too, so one call covers both.
Is a burst pipe covered by insurance?
Sudden pipe failures are typically covered, along with the resulting water damage. Repairing the pipe itself, and leaks that developed slowly, are often treated differently. Review your policy, including endorsements. See the plain-English coverage guide.
I can't find my shut-off valve.
Call anyway. While you wait for help, if it's safe to do so, dispatch can talk you through the usual spots.
Are freeze-burst pipes covered in San Antonio?
Typically yes, if the burst was sudden and you followed your policy's freeze precautions - usually maintaining heat, or shutting off the water and draining the pipes. Review your policy, including endorsements.
