Cold snaps catch out loft pipework and outside taps across Kirkby-in-Ashfield every winter, and a burst can put a lot of water into a house before anyone notices. Turn off the stopcock, open the cold taps to drain the system, then tell Vofix what has happened and we will look for a plumber working Kirkby, Annesley, Nuncargate or Kirkby Woodhouse who can repair the pipe and check for the same weakness elsewhere.
Pipes usually burst where they are coldest and least protected — in a loft, under floorboards, in an outside wall or on an unlagged run to an outside tap. A burst can push a surprising amount of water into a property in minutes, so turn the stopcock off, open the cold taps to drain the system down, and keep water away from sockets and lighting. Send Vofix the details and we look for a plumber nearby who can cut out the damaged section, repair it properly and check the rest of the run for the same weakness, so you are not doing this again next winter.
