There is no fixed figure: cast iron rusts inward, so the outside stays convincing long after the wall of the pipe has gone thin, particularly at the joints. Replacing a serving section while the wall is already open costs less disruption than coming back for it later.

The water authority serving the address keeps a service line inventory and can tell you what material is recorded for the property, which is the fastest answer available. Replacement programmes are run by the authority, so any work on the public side is arranged through them.

That depends entirely on the wording of the policy and on the cause, and the pipe and the damage it caused are frequently treated as separate questions. Attached homes add a second question about which policy answers when water crosses the wall, so contact your insurance provider and ask them directly before work begins.

The common culprits are a line inside a wall, a length under the basement slab, or the stretch between the meter and where the plumbing branches. A toilet that refills on its own accounts for a surprising share of these, and it is the cheapest thing to rule out.

Both are common in older housing and they look alike at first, though groundwater usually arrives after rain and along the base of the wall while a plumbing leak keeps going in dry weather and stays near one run. In attached homes a wet patch on your side can also be fed from the other half, which is worth ruling out before anyone starts chasing the foundation.
