That depends on your policy, and your insurance provider is the one to ask. A sudden failure is treated differently from long-term seepage under most policies. Photograph the wet area and hold onto any section of pipe that gets cut out.

A dried-out floor drain trap is the usual reason, since nothing runs into it for months and the water seal evaporates. A rusted-through stack will do it too. Either way, sewer gas is getting past a seal meant to hold it back.

Not always. A damaged section can be cut out and replaced on its own, though on a stack that has failed in one place the rest is the same age and often the same condition. Inspecting the full run is what settles the question.

Water hammer, caused by a fast-closing valve with nowhere for the pressure spike to go. On old plumbing it works joints loose over time. An arrestor or a functioning air chamber is the usual answer.
