Newer homes and warranties
If your home is newer, check whether a builder warranty or manufacturer warranty covers the part that failed, such as a water heater or supply line, before repairs begin. Warranties typically cover the failed part, while your homeowners policy may cover the resulting water damage. Keep the failed part if you can, photograph it and note the model and serial number.
