Some homes from these decades have multiple generations of plumbing. A crew checks where water traveled, not only where it began. Material age alone does not determine what can be saved.
A short freeze can damage appliance connections in unheated rooms. Extraction follows the water. The wet area may extend beyond the appliance footprint.
