A burst pipe can be a serious problem. It can cause extensive damage to your property if left unattended to.
Firstly there are a few steps that we recommend you take immediately if you discover a burst pipe.
This is priority #1. This will stop the supply of water into your home and stop the flow of water escaping from the pipe. Your stop valve will be located under your kitchen sink, in front of your property, or perhaps in another cupboard below the stairs or in the utility room.
By taking all these steps you greatly reduce the chance of further damage due to a burst pipe. Next you need to call a plumber. The Leicester Plumber is available 24 hours a day in the event of an emergency. We have highly trained plumbers that can identify where the leak is, assess the damage and what needs to be done to fix the problem.

Based on the instruction given on the packages, you can put in a rubber sleeve over the leak in the pipe. This should hold the leak for a day or two until you can develop a more permanent solution.
