Leaking or Burst Pipe

If a water pipe in your home or business has burst or is leaking, it’s important to act fast to minimise damage. A burst pipe can cause flooding throughout the building, which can be costly and slow to repair if left too long. We know this is probably a distressing time for you, but don’t panic, help is at hand!

If you know how, you can help reduce the impact of water damage while waiting for your local plumbing expert by doing the following:

• Locate your stop tap and turn off the water.
• Put down towels to soak up any water.
• Turn electric off at the mains, especially if any water has leaked near electrics.
• Turn off the heating and open all taps to drain the system quickly.
• Review your home insurance policies.

Frozen pipes can also cause all sorts of problems, and eventually lead to a leak, so it’s important to isolate and fix the problem as soon as possible to get your water flowing again.

Broken Shower Repair

If your shower isn’t working, you’re likely either facing a plumbing or electrical problem. Whether your shower isn’t turning on or off, there’s no hot water, a water leak, or no water at all your local Carlisle plumbing expert should be able to help identify the issue and get your shower working again with minimal disruption.

Leaking Water Heater

If your water heater is leaking or has failed in another way, you’re likely stuck without hot water. This may not seem like an emergency for some, but for homes with vulnerable people, young children, or elderly residents, it’s time to call an emergency plumber, especially in the winter!

If a plumbing issue has meant that you have to shut your home’s main water supply off to stop a leak, it counts as an emergency, even more so if the leak has caused a flood. Don’t hesitate, call Metro Plumb Cumbria & Dumfries now for fast and local service.

Tap Repair and Tap Installation in Carlisle, Cumbria & Dumfries

Here at Metro Plumb, we always aim to fix your plumbing problem on a first-time basis, carrying out repairs quickly and efficiently.
