Burst Pipes & Water Leaks Repairs

Burst Pipes & Water Leaks

There are very few things that can cause as much damage to your property as a burst pipe. When it comes to burst pipes, we’ve pretty much seen it all.

From crazy scenarios involving totally collapsed ceilings, right through to scenarios where carpets and floor boards have had to be totally replaced. Even instances where appliances and furniture was so badly damaged, it all had to be thrown out.

Larger water leaks are normally quite easy to diagnose as there is often a lot of water spillage to be seen, however for the times when a burst pipe is more gradual it can be like trying to find a needle in a haystack. Regardless, it’s still important to get these problems addressed as soon as possible, as water leaks can become very serious if they’re not attended to. It’s always wise to be proactive and give us a call before it gets out of hand. By doing so, you’re inevitably avoiding an impending disaster (like those mentioned above!)

Some of the tell-tale signs of a burst or leaking pipe are:

• Dampness or discolouration of carpet (especially in areas near bathrooms, laundries and kitchens)
• Discolouration or strange marks appearing on ceilings
• Damp and musky smells
