A burst pipe is bad news in any property, and worse in the older buildings around Newark town centre where water can run a long way through timber floors before it shows. Shut the stopcock, open the cold taps and get in touch — Vofix will look for a plumber covering Newark, Balderton, Fernwood, Farndon and Coddington who can cut out the damaged pipework and repair it the same visit where possible.
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.
