Burst Pipes

Burst Pipes

Some burst pipes are quite obvious – water gushing everywhere! However, just as common is a slow leak that can go undetected for weeks and sometimes even months.

Subtle signs can give you the tip that something is not quite right. For example, a squishy or damp patch in your lawn that never seems to dry out. Rising damp along the brick work of your home or a ‘hissing’ sound that seems to come from behind the wall.
