If a pipe has burst, the first priority is to reduce the flow if it is safe to do so. The main stop tap or a suitable isolation valve may help. Once the immediate situation is controlled, the damaged section, connection or fitting can be assessed and the appropriate repair planned.
Common burst pipe repair problems
- Sudden pipe failures and major leaks
- Damaged joints and fittings
- Emergency water isolation
- Replacement of damaged pipe sections
- Assessment of why the failure occurred
Burst pipes can occur because of damaged joints, ageing pipework, accidental impact, freezing conditions or a failed connection. A proper repair should address the damaged section and consider why the failure occurred so that the same problem is less likely to return.
