Burst pipes

A burst pipe,
step by step.

Turn the water off at the stopcock straight away, then open the cold taps to drain the pipes. If water is near lights or sockets, switch the electrics off at the fuse box. Then ring 07552 651537.

Usually under the kitchen sink. If it isn't there, look in an airing cupboard, under the stairs, or under the floor near the front door, where the water pipe comes in.

Yes. Elizabeth W.'s burst was underground in her front garden. Jay turned the water off to stop the leak, then came back the following day, as promised, to find and repair the pipe.

Yes. We're open 24 hours, 7 days a week, across Newcastle and the North East.

Keep the heating on low when it's very cold, even if you're away, lag pipes in lofts, garages and on outside walls, and find your stopcock before you need it.

When I rang Rapid Emergency Plumbing, my plumbing engineer Jay arrived within an hour and a half. He was friendly and polite and knowledgeable about the problem I had, which was a burst pipe underground in the front garden. He identified what needed to be done and then turned the water off to stop the leak. He came back the following day as promised and located and repaired the pipe. A really great guy who put my mind at ease in a very stressful situation.

We called Rapid Plumber at 9.40am on Sunday with a huge leak. I had an engineer inside the house by 10.20am and the job fixed, repaired and cleaned up by 10.45am. Absolutely spot on service, engineer was professional, friendly and I couldn’t recommend more

I can not express how calm, fairly priced, friendly, fast, prepared, and importantly 'human' and attentive, this company is. Exactly when you need to reach out and trust someone, in a world that destroys trust - they were there.

They responded quickly, turned up when they said they would, and got the problem sorted without any hassle. The plumber was friendly, professional, and explained everything clearly before carrying out the work. The job was completed to a high standard, and everything was left clean and tidy afterwards.
