Burst pipe water usually travels inside walls, through ceiling joists, and along subfloors. The repair has to follow it everywhere it went.

The pro uses infrared and meters to follow the water path from the break to every wet material.
Drywall and insulation around the break come out so the pipe can be fixed and the cavity can dry.
Water is removed and drying equipment runs until the structure reads dry.
The broken line gets repaired by a licensed plumber, often coordinated by the restoration contractor.
After drying, new insulation goes in, drywall is hung and finished, texture is matched, and the room is painted.
Let dispatch know the water is off and roughly how long it ran.
